Going on loan still means he gets his full wages though, when it comes to a transfer I'm wondering if Allan will drop £5k pw to join us.

Of course money will be a factor, I was responding to the suggestion that he's happy not to be playing. I would suggest there are only a very small minority of footballers who are happy not playing.

Whether we choose to or not we could pay him a wage well in excess of £3k per week. From what I heard Stokes was on around £5k.

Lawell said no player will be loaned or sold to "Hunbernian" ever again.

Apparently.

You would think after just getting a 2 .3 Million Performance Bonus he would be chilled out FFS

Celtic should just be thankful for Hibs or they wouldn't be in existence. In fact they they should be sending us Griffiths, Tierney and McGregor as a goodwill gesture and continue to loan us their best players until we say otherwise the little wannabe Hibs that they are.

[Elephant Stone]

For the avoidance of doubt, I was joking. Think these rumours are getting a bit far-fetched.

Have any of these journalists who keep saying "signing Gauld won't affect hibs going for scott allan" actually asked Lennon if we are trying to sign allan? Not heard a quote from him about a deal since the AGM.

He said so himself about a week or so before the window opened

Doubt this is true - we dislike the rangers just as much as Celtic.

Celtic need all teams to take points of the rangers so it may be in their interest to loan the fringe players out.

Can’t play against Celtic but they can play v the rangers.

We have been supplying them since 1888 ffs, it's more there loss than ours let them have the hump, we simple wont sell to them again

[lyonhibs]

I have the impression that our desire for Scott Allen to sign for us isn't matched by his desire to sign for us, certainly permanently.

Would love for him to sign on the dotted line but won't be surprised if he doesn't and we certainly shouldn't entirely judge the success of our January window on just his signing (or not)

[SouthMoroccoStu]

At the end of the day (football cliche bingo) Scott Allan belongs to Celtic until the summer (yes i knowledge he can sign a pre with any one) and it's disrespectful to talk about another teams player publicly

Lennon knows this and we've been on the wrong end of this many times. Allan to Rangers springs to mind

Any quotes from Lennon about Allan will be leading questions from lazy journalists looking for click-bait headlines, followed by respectful and praising yet vague reply by Lennon

I'm sure Hibs are working away in the background of this one and we'll just have to be patient - maybe not our strong suit...

[hibbyfraelibby]

Is there a maximum number of players you can take on loan in the SPFL Premiership? Thought I read somewhere it was two from the same league.

Everybody is aware of how stubborn Lawwell is but he is no idiot. He is first and foremost a businessman and won’t be happy at leaking money to keep Allan in a risk-free luxurious lifestyle. Yes, he’ll be miffed at Hibs over the McGinn situation but he knows full well that he was totally at fault for missing out. I don’t think he would ever be stupid enough to make such a difinitive statement.

Yeah potentially, although I’d like to think we are after a permanent move for him. Cant believe we haven’t even sorted a pre contract yet.

This is sounding positive from Lennon regarding signings...

“We are beavering away. We’ve identified the areas we want to improve. While they may cost a little bit more, we are in a position where we can do that.

“I’m not going to say any more than that.”

That does sound a bit more positive...fingers crossed

Can see supergrass gling back to hearts. Wonder if Gray has been offered a new contract?

[SChibs]

I think we should enquire about Mulumbu at Celtic. I don't think he's played for them much and he could give us the dig in midfield we are missing

I'd take Gary Mackay-Stevens at Hibs, think he's out our price range now though.

I'd also consider Tony Watt. Goal return needs a bit of work but his link up play and physicality has really improved this season and he's room for development.

Na to Tony - T. Watt belongs on the back on a hearts shirt

This would go some way towards settling their historic debt.

[MacGruber]

Would take most of that team - hopefully we offer Gray an extension.

I would pass on Watt, Cerny & Brown looks to be in decline these days. Obviously Boyata is on another pay scale and also Shinnie and MacKay-Stevens aswell most likely outwith the budget. Think the interesting ones there are Hawlkett and Cadden

Was only meant to be arriving in Dubai late last night. Medical etc to be done today. Lennon did say yesterday that it’s not over the line and some things still had to be completed.

Ah okay, cheers. I will keep checking every five minutes

“And I think the Hibs fans who are what Mourinho would call the “Einsteins” of the game were sort of scratching their heads at us bringing him in but by the time he left they were singing his praises about how good a player he is.”

I like this qoute by Lennon, perfectly sums up a fair few on this forum when it comes to signings and other such matters. Don't know why people get their knickers in a twist, what will be will be and I fully trust Lennon and the rest to recruit well.

[Gaffer1875]

Rossiter been told he can leave Sevco. Had his Injuries but is he worth a 6 month deal? Looked good in the 5-5 game.
