    Not at all, it’s a long season and I’m sure Marv will still be needed to make a big contribution.

    I’m sure Marvin also doesn’t expect to play 40 games any more, still an important squad member though.

    Would agree with that but if Milligans form means that Marv will play even less than he does now, that might mean he moves on. He would walk into that Dundee team and play every week.

    Would hate to see Marv leave but on yesterdays showing if Milligan (hopefully) stays fit it's gonna be tough for Marv to get game time I'd think...sadly for him as he's a legend but Milligan deffo looks like an upgrade for the holding role ...offers much more in an attacking sense too.

    We need a squad, not just a first 11, so keeping Marv makes sense.

    Also, it could be that both could play together. Especially if we stick with a back 4.

    Agreed, decent position to be in. Go back 10 years and the argument was which outfield player should we put in goals!
    Maka or McNeil?

    Agreed, one of the key failings of the various Hibs teams I’ve watched in nearly 50 years of going to games has been the lack of depth in the squad. This has been the case since I first trembled at the sight of the Tornadoes in their pomp, right through to Millers best teams, Mowbray and Collins’ sides and the very good teams Stubbs and Lennon have assembled in recent years.

    Bartley will play his part this season and will always be a valued part of the squad. We should be keeping him, he’s got qualities that are unique.

    It’s a squad game mate. We need both. Marv rarely played last season, especially the second half of it. Hope he stays put

    If Marvin Bartley leaves there will be a riot

    The reception he got from the fans at Dundee when he was warming up on Saturday was heart warming

    He has reached Matty Jackesgue cult status among the fans

    He even has his own song ffs!

    Hopefully Lenny can find a place for both in his new diamond or upside down Christmas tree formation or whatever you may care to call it.

    Besides he has unfinished business at Easter Road as he has to stay to clip Potters wings and score that elusive first goal.

    Marvin Bartley! Marvin Bartley! He’s better than that......

    It’s fine us saying it’s a squad game. But if we get to January and Marv jas hardly started a game then, at his age, he’s surely going to want to get away and play somewhere.

    I think this will be his last season at Hibs.

    He will only leave if he gets much better money somewhere else, if Hibs are still paying him a good wage and he can play a part I think he will stay. You can tell from his social media he has a plan of what he wants to do when football finishes for him, maybe being a squad player gives him more time to prepare for that as well.

    First time I’ve heard it, sounds good ! I think it might catch on

    Maybe someone could think up a few words to that chorus “ he puts his right leg in his left leg in and shakes it all about He pings a 50 yard pass.... he takes no prisoners......”

    He puts the tackle in
    Pings the passes out
    In out in out and shakes the game about
    He hates the Jambo *******s and kens what it’s about
    Milligan’s on the rout

    Imagine there’s no Aussies
    It’s not easy if you try
    No McLaren or Milligan
    Throwing shrimps on the bar-bye

    Imagine there’s no Lennon
    Bawling at the ref

    Oooooooh

    You may say I’m a Jambo
    Or an undercover hun
    But I heard Sparkys returning
    On a contract length of years one
