The January window

I imagine purely on injury situation as opposed to anything else. If he was to come on loan to prove his fitness with a view to making it permanent then I'd be absolutely fine with that, but as it stands I'd rather look elsewhere to spend our budget than on someone who hasn't played a lot of football the last 18 months.

This. Signing Kerr at this point in time would be crazy.

As long as we don't invest in more "players with potential". We've enough of them on the books. All our investment eggs for this window should go in the one basket for a player of proven quality, even if it's someone in the twilight of their career, who can bring leadership and control. A Sauzee type. But who?

Exactly my thinking , with the addition of a Latapy type

[Brightside]

a box to box no8 and left footed CB.

There's a lot of players who have had this type of injury and came back from it ( shearer , Keane). I haven't really looked into Kerr's injury history though I don't remember him being constantly injured at the saints , I do remember him being a really good defender though . I seem to remember folk wanting to sign is defensive partner mccart at one point who never looked nearly a good when Kerr left .

I wouldn't be against the idea of signing him if there was a chance though doubt there would be as Maloney has said he likes him and he's part of his plans . I read he's back training and isn't to far away from making a comeback if the article is correct of course.

He’s injured again apparently.

[Since452]

I don't think we need wholesale changes to be honest. Our starting eleven should be good enough to win most weeks. Our bench can look a bit weak but we've got the likes of Cadden, McKirdy and JDH to come back in. With that in mind I can see one or two loans coming in to the end of the season to give us more depth but i'd be very surprised if we sign someone permanently. We're not going to waste money, especially after having spent close to two million in the summer.

Keanu Baccus contract is up in the summer. I wonder if St Mirren will try and cash in during January, we were supposedly interested.

I had read he was doing light training and not to far away from a comeback , didn't realise he was injured again though. Injury is supposedly a metatarsal one which was described as a "freak" injury . Out till the new year . If he gets fit and became available I'd still take him . Good player.

Seen Monty going over to him for a wee chat after the game last week, wonder if he was having a wee word in his ear.

[Hibernian Verse]

There must be 1000 centre halves out there as good or better than Jason Kerr within our budget that have played regularly over the past 2 years that could come in and hit the ground running.

[Donegal Hibby]

This article says we lost out to Pompey for this player , would have been surprised if we were looking at a winger tbh .

If we were to somehow sign him it would no doubt cost a chunk of money in transfer and on wages for someone who hasn't proven hit fitness levels for far too long. It would be a no from me until you can see if he can play games consistently upon returning.

Probably telling him to stick in and make sure he gets a place in the side instead of warming the bench most weeks.

Why, we've been playing Boyle through the middle and only have Youan and Jair as wide players, we still need someone out wide as McKirdy isn't quoted yet.

Baccus has started nearly every league game for St Mirren when he has been available. The only 2 games he started on the bench were against Motherwell in Sept after returning from Int duty in the US and against us when returning from the injury that kept him out the previous match.

We have a 22 year old winger on loan at Livvy and it was just abit surprising we were linked with another one that couldn't get much game time at MK Dons in league 1 and between Youan , Boyle and Jair with players like Mckirdy and Cadden to come back I wouldn't have thought it would have been a priority . Think Boyle is better on the wing too btw .

I doubt we would get him though think his contract runs out June the 30 and probably the time the window opens he could be near back from this latest setback too . Wages would probably be the biggest problem I'd imagine .

I was trying to check up on his injury history when he was at St Johnstone and all I can find is a back injury that kept him out for around a week . I'm not saying we should make him a priority or anything though I think he would be a good option as I've seen him play and he's a good player , knows the league and a hibby too 👍

Wonder if we woukd be looking to take Tullio on loan.

Probably an area we need depth and someone the management team will know well.

I like Baccus I would prefer him to O’Hara, be good to know why his move to Millwall fell through in the summer think they where paying 500k for him if we could get him on a free would be a good signing IMO exactly what we need with energy and a bit of bite about him

The winger out on loan won’t be in our plans Just hasn’t been consistent enough

Mackay has probably found his level, bottom premier/championship, took a punt which didn't work out, it happens.

He would cerrtainly add to the numbers...but not add much to the quality.

Wouldn’t say he was a ‘poor’ player, that would be unfair on him.

But I wouldn’t say he would be any more than a ‘squad player’ for us.

Brendan Rogers said he was having difficulty to adjusting to the intensity of the training at Celtic…….and wouldn’t be picked until he had…….if you have difficulty adjusting to the intensity of the training…..dunno how he’d go on match days.

But you never know I guess…..maybe Monty and Serge can sprinkle their magic dust on him….

Make it happen Hibs.

Van Veen and Vente would be some duo, especially with Boyle and Youan out wide.

Boyle and Youan don't play out wide though all the time and Vente is a penalty box striker imo , is Van Veen going to be the player who drops deep in support of our midfield with his pace at the age of 32 or over ? . Sorry UW I just don't see him as a player we need the way Monty wants us to play now . Good player though 👍

Wouldn't be surprised to see Shankland to Rangers in January and Van Veen to Hearts, with Budge chucking the rest of the transfer fee income into the hotel.

Sevco won't be paying out much in transfer fees given the state of their accounts.

It'll be 2050 and Doidge, now a grandfather, will still be sclaffing them in off the back of his shoulder against St Mirren for us. Don't worry.
