We need a no nonsense player in the heart of the team. None of the players you mention meet that criteria

Some are out of contract.
We are still a big club, good facilities and in Edinburgh.
That in itself is enough for players to choose us over other Scottish teams

I agree re Anier. Think it was a massive mistake letting him go in January and feel like he slotted in well to the "Farid" role. He was crucial in two of our last minute goals around that time.

Doolan and lawless from partick, Gordon and Crawford from Hamilton and Irvine from Ross county would be better options if we can stretch to that.
I would look down south and try find players who have done it in the spl but no quite made the grade in England. Scougall, King, Higdon, Shinnie? Any more?
Rangers have worked this market well with Waghorn and Tavernier especially, the two boys they have just signed from Accrington for free look good players too.
Need a left back and a strong striker that can hold the ball up and take pressure of the defence as a priority.Last edited by HTD1875; 13-05-2016 at 11:30 PM.

Robson = past it
Paton = European fitba with St Johnstone who he's linked with.

How about Hibs doing 'proper homework' on players ?
I'm 46 and played football twice a week on Astro and never been injured - maybe we need a manager who sees through all the Lilian Gish players come out with about being injured ?
It's an easy profession to pick up a wage and do nowt - think we should look at contracts personally (next season)

Goalkeeper - Literally anybody apart from who is here
Defence - A gang of huddies to kick, foul and handball at every opportunity
Centre Mid - Two big huddies to break up play, give away fouls and play it sideways
Wide midfield - two runners with limited ability but plenty speed and Ability to cut inside without coming to a complete halt
Forwards - two big huddies to kick, foul and handball at every opportunity. Maybe get the odd goal here and there too

Do people genuinley think the squad we have isn't good enough to get out of the Scottish Championship?! I think our squad, and particularly the depth is as good as we've had in a decade. It's the poor tactics that's kept us down here. We have a ****ing Scotland cap in our squad!

Ripley, rodgers and storey would be loan deals, can't see them staying or starting at there parent club and they will want game time. Our facilities and size of club could tempt them.
Robson Will probably end up at Highland league, if we wanted him I think we could get him no problem.
Goodwillie is out of contract and hasn't produced the goods for a while now so wouldn't command alot of money at all.
I can't see magennis costing much money whatsoever
