potentially good signing if true :agree:

hope that Wotherspoon gets an opportunity on the right of midfield with Zoumer out if Hart does come in

was a decent player for the sheep. think your on about the guy gray from man u.

The Dons had a full back that was really quick a few seasons ago, thought it was Hart, maybe Foster?

I always thought they both had a decent turn of pace,probably wrong though.:greengrin

Sure he was pretty good, from what i can remember.

Only played 9 games for PNE, seems to have had a bad time with injuries, since signing for them in 07/08 season.

Bit here about him when he moved from sheep to PNE, although he is a RB, would appear he can play anywhere across the back or even centre mid

Would be a good signing if true and would allow Wotherspoon to push up the park.

We need an experienced RB as I feel it's a bit unfair to expect a young player like Wotherspoon to perform week in week out in his first season in the first team, especially when he is more suited for midfield.

Hart from what I can remember was a good player at the Sheep, hopefully he is joining.

I won't grumble at a loan deal with a wee follow up at the end of the season, better than we have in that position:thumbsup:

From what i remember of hart he was a speedy player,reliable defender who tended to pass well and left the skilful play to others.Just what we need at rb just now.

brydekirk

22-01-2010, 07:36 AM

im sure he can play on the left aswell.:thumbsup:

MussyHibby

22-01-2010, 07:55 AM

Sounds good, hope it's true.

I always felt Hart and Foster were really decent full backs with loads of pace.

Last Minute

22-01-2010, 08:32 AM

I was told the medical was the problem.

No it was a clause in the contract that if the injury flaired up again hibs could end the contract. needless to say Anderson was no to happy with this.

He's only 5'10" so on a par or smaller than others in the back line.

Sounds like it could be a good signing addressing our most problematic position this season. Career plagued with injuries though which is a bit of a worry!!

EskbankHibby

22-01-2010, 08:56 AM

Hart used to be a full back then played sweeper/ch iirc in the latter stages of his Dons career.

Went on loan to Livingston in the late 90's and no stranger to the treatment table. Had a sustained period of fitness and form in the latter stages of his Dons spell and went down south for more cash than they could offer.

Wonder what the dons fans think of this.

Agree, think his hamstrings tend to go every now and then. A decent strong defender from what I remember with a bit of pace, not the most skilful but if fit will do a good job for Hibs if he signs.

Out for a long time with a hip injury as well

Taken for a Hart of Hibs thread of 2 years ago this month

I'll tell you something, if Hibs pull this off and get Hart then it will be a brilliant signing:agree:

The guy is a good player and is a big strong lad while still being lightning fast down the wing so i would be more than happy to see him in the green and white and if we can afford him then we would also be able to afford Chris Clark from the sheep as well who i would definately take for our midfield as well :agree:

Taoads tipped him for a Yogi signing in the summer

I was speaking to some old dear in the pub on Tuesday night (not something I make a habit of!) and she said she was Danny Swansons Auntie and that he would be signing for Hibs before the window closes. (Don't shoot the messenger! cannae be any worse than Footy Rumours website though!)

Micharl Hart was a good right back when he left the dons, one we would gladly have seen at easter road. If he signs, and can recapture that form, we will have another piece of the jigsaw completed.

Evening News today repeating the line that he might be here in time for tomorrow, probably lifted from the original.

Hughes not denying it but saying a few things are on the go and its up the the Board now to sort them out.

He was at Aberdeen before Livingston but went on loan there and eventually on a permanent deal. He ended up going back to Aberdeen for a few seasons after Livi.

As for Michael Hart, I'm sure Calderwood used him to track Ivan when Ivan was running amock fir us on the right wing. I know he's meant to be a right back but I'm sure he played on the left and was the only man I seen get close to Ivan.

Or am I confusing him with Foster????

Think so.

IIRC they're both pretty quick but Foster was the lightening quick left back who used to track Sproule.

Maybe one of the sheepies who post here could confirm.

I think he was always highly rated wherever he played in the SPL. He will be a good acquisition if we get him till the end of the season and potentially beyond. Here's hoping anyway.

He certainly had pace although not sure about the passing and crossing. Was dire against us in that pre-season friendly but maybe carrying an injury?

Just spoke to a Sheepy mate who compared Hart to Ian Murray. Strong, dependable, solid SPL player. He said he'd take him back at Todders in a second but thinks he is looking for silly wages these days.

It wasn't. It was Hart. Foster had played LB all season and Hart switched to LB to cover IvaN and Foster to RB. Tangoman even said that Hart was faster than Sproule:confused:

MGmick

22-01-2010, 07:17 PM

As I recall it was Hart that took care of Ivan and Foster used to terrify Whitty.

Toaods

22-01-2010, 08:26 PM

It was Foster.He was played out of position to deal with Sproule.

Aye, Foster was the really quick one that Sproule struggled against.

good bit of tactical logic by Tangoman IMHO...

by playing Foster at left back, he had the pace to cover Ivan cutting inside which would have been onto his stronger right foot too. Result tended to be that when Foster showed Ivan the inside he took the other option which meant as he was heading wide of goals the burst of pace was useless and any lapse in cross found out.

Defo Foster although Hart is quick. My fav Hart moment was at Todders when Scotty Brown walloped him into that big wall in the front of the away section. Scotty appears into view and the game continues - then Hart eventually got to his feet as though he'd been hit by a Rhino...:greengrin

It will be brilliant if we can get Hart signed up before tomorrow's match. Remember him really well from his Aberdeen days. A right back who could attack and defend.

Hard to imagine darren ferguson playing him if he had given us permission to have talks about taking him on loan. Must be us playing games with Kevin Drinkell, who can see pounds signs before common sense.
