Anyone remember him, if the story is correct, might it be us, might not be. Lenny has said he might still be on the look out for 2 strikers.

Would take him along side another forward. From what I can remember, is he more of a wide player? Or have I got that wrong..remember him being decent for the Well though, just burst out onto the scene with them.

No thanks. Average player at best with a poor goal return.

Definitely the type of player I'd like to see us sign. Young and hungry for an opportunity. He was a bit more wider i think than central which explains the lack of goals but from what I can remember from him he is quick and isn't shy of a header so fits different styles. I'd 100% like to see us go for this.

Has signed a 2 year deal with Kilmarnock
Can't believe we didn'd want this guy.

22 year old striker with SPL and English Championship experience.
Lots of potential. Kilmarnock will have offered him washers.
I really think we should have done this deal.
He could well be the difference between relegation and safety for Kilmarnock. Great piece of business by them.

Not that that's any indicator necessarily of how he will do at Killie, but I'm intrigued to learn how you think Hibs "really should" have signed him??

What has he done to make people on here want us to sign him? Would rather be linked and sign players like Stokes and Rooney etc, rather than Lee Erwin.

Hibs can't afford strikers who are the finished article or quality ones at the top of their game.
Accordingly we look to sign young players with potential as well as Scottish players who have moved down south and for whatever reason have not made it.
Lee Erwin meets both the above.
He played under 17, 18 & 19 for Scotland, scored 6 in his last 11 games in the SPL in a Motherwell team that finished 2nd from bottom, previously scored 8 goals from 11 for Arbroath, won a move to a large, English Championship team on the back of his Motherwell performances, only made 12 appearances for Leeds but scored 10 in 40 appearances last season on loan to Oldham in the English 1st Division.
It's a fans forum and this fan thought att 22 years of age he would have been worth signing based on the above and what little I have seen of him as well as the small wage involved. I think he will be a success at Kilmarnock. As ever time will tell and I may look a goat if it is shown that he can't kick his own erse.
Aberdeen since McInnes became boss have successfully used a model where they bring in SPL players at smaller teams or other players of ability who have previously done well in Scotland, who moved down south and for whatever reason have not made it (Hayes, Shinnie, McLean, Mackay-Steven, Rooney, Reynolds etc)
Stokes would be a similar signing to the Aberdeen model in that his stock is currently low because he flopped at Blackburn and has had off the field problems. Based on previous ability shown with Hibs we are keen to get him in and are trying to take advantage of his current low standing to do so.Last edited by CMurdoch; 28-07-2017 at 04:10 PM.

It looks that way. I quite like Erwin but our new guys look promising.
