[Wotherspiniesta]

Welcome Ric! :thumbsup::flag:

Deal until the end of the season.

Calderwood's quotes suggest he see's him as a centre forward rather than a wide man.

[The Hurricane]

Welcome, hopefully some good competition for Deeks and Sodjer!:cgwa

[EskbankHibby]

Wearing a baseball cap for official photograph on official website, is this the sort of shoddy individual we want at our club.:bitchy:






















Welcome Ricardo!!!:thumbsup::hibees

Winner against the grunts will do.

[Hibee_Lisa]

Welcome :aok:

[Owain_1987]

Welcome Vaz!!!! :greengrin

[Hibs90]

:thumbsup:

[James70]

Let's hope he does well then signs on for another couple of years, would hate to see another Didier Agathe situation. :agree:

[Gatecrasher]

good news, welcome :cgwa:flag::cgwa

[Sir David Gray]

I know he's been injured a lot and hasn't exactly set the heather on fire at any of his previous clubs but I have a strangely good feeling about this guy and I have a feeling he'll do quite well.

A deal to the end of the season makes sense because if he gets injured again or doesn't do well then we just say cheerio in a few months' time and we haven't lost anything. If he does well then hopefully he'll want to extend his stay.

[Ritchie]

i have a good feeling about this one :thumbsup:

[Hibee Daz]

[QUOTE=EskbankHibby;2746738]Wearing a baseball cap for official photograph on official website, is this the sort of shoddy individual we want at our club.:bitchy:

Eskbank is just an extension of Dalkeith so I would have thought you wouldn't mind baseball caps!:wink:

Welcome Vaz.:thumbsup:

[California-Hibs]

Believe me, this is a CRACKIN signing! Lets hope after he does well that he gets a longer contract offer! Ah it's good being a Hibs fan these days! :flag: Onwards and upwards!

[Posh Swanny]

No mention of the training ground or the stadium?

Rodders will have him cleaning the bogs with a toothbrush for that one.

[trev the hat]

:flag: Warm welcome Vaz :flag:

[GreenCastle]

:thumbsup:

Welcome :agree:

More competition for places and it's good to hear about the togetherness of the squad. You can see the team spirit with the way they celebrate goals now :top marks.

Short term deal or not - at least CC is bringing in his own players and so far they have all done well :cgwa

[MacBean]

Good stuff :thumbsup:

[aberhibsfc]

I understand the short term deal, given his recent history.

I would like to think we have gone further to protect ourselves by inserting an option dependent on performance.

[Hibs7]

CC beginning to get the type of player he wants, if he is as good as the other CC signings then I can't wait to see him in action.

I agree, striped trousers, morning coat and top hat would have been much more appropriate.

CC's now going after Vaz Te's Leith-born cousin, 'Get Tae'.

[--------]

Quote from CC: "Ricardo is a different type of striker to what we already have at our disposal in the squad and gives us extra options."

In other words, he's learned to stand upright for more than 5 seconds at a time, he isn't second-cousin to Mike Tyson, and he doesn't go all huffy when the ball doesn't quite run for him..." :wink:


Oh, and he isn't a Lithuanian sick-note, either. :rolleyes:

Speaking of which, how bad does Trakys have to be when Nish gets a place on the bench ahead of you?

That said, Vaz Te's on the bench tomorrow so it will likely be in place of Nish or Rankin. Win-Win situation.

Trakys can play - he just doesn't want to. Waste of time, space and skin, IMO.

Not to put a damper on things, but in his near 7 years at Bolton he probably only scored around 5 ot 6 senior goals iirc. He was out injured really for a couple of years in that time with various injuries but it's still not a great return.

Don't be too disappointed if he does not bag so many golas for us.

He is, or was fast though if that is any consolation:greengrin

Talking about scooters.

Anybody on here ever walk along Tollcross / Fountainbridge way. There's this real mean Hairy Triker on a mobility scooter. She seems to veer at you and you have to jump out her way. She goes that fast I couldn't even tell you if she had a basket on the front or streamers on the handle bars.

Attenborough needs to re-write his narritive regards man being top of the food chain without a natural predator. This modern day Boudicca would have your ankles off.

[aberhibsfc]

Apologies for thread hi-jack.

Just posting out of concern for public safety, ahem.

Welcome to the fold Ricardo, may your stay be successful, enjoyable and rewarding.

[whereswallace?]

Just watched a video on you tube of some of his goals, looks like hes also decent in the air, scored a few headers. Got a good feeling about this signing.

[cam75]

Its got to be
Ooh to be ooh to be a ooh to be a vaz te

At 6'2 he adds more height to the Hibs team.

I don't see a problem. If he's good enough our problem will be encouraging him to stay. If he's a dud he's out the door, along with a host of others.

[killie-hibby]

Something not quite right about this thread.Seventythree posts gone and nobody has asked the definitive question. Is he Hibs class?

[--------]

another player out of contract at the end of the season!....what is calderwood playing at ??


Who else is out of contract in June? Apart from the ones we all want rid of?

Divis - whom we haven't yet seen, so we don't know how good he is.

Towells goes back to Celtic after his loan spell closes. We knew that.

And Vaz Te. Whose past record might suggest we should look hard before we jump right in.

I saw something on one news website way back in January that suggested that we had first option on Divis in June if CC was happy with him, but I honestly can't see how that would work unless we had already agreed enhanced terms with him for an extension then. I think Sky was suggesting the same thing about Vaz Te - but again, I can't see how that could be.

Anyone got any ideas? :dunno:

[Jones28]

Recent signings are a definite statement of intent from the board. Cant imagine Vazza (like gazza) will be on anything under £4-6K a week.
Looks like it's Calderwood thats here to stay, and as long as the results and the quality of signings continues then long my it last :flag:

Four players that are out of contract in the summer who have all received backing on here at one point or another over the past few weeks about getting a new contract.

Sorry, FH - I thought the reference was to people CC had signed - "... what is Calderwood playing at?"

You're dead right - those four I really want to keep - and wee Lewis too.

Miller has been offered a new contract but wants to wait until the end of the season before committing. There was an interview with him in the Sunday Mail, I'll see if i can find a link.

fat freddy: god give me strength....i was only mucking about.

Well, you SHOULDN'T muck about. You should take this website as seriously as I do. :devil:

But I think it's as I said - Towells he couldn't get longer, Divis he wants to have a good look at and maybe only sees him as a short-term stopgap until young Flynn can step in, and Vazza I suspect he wants to be sure of his temperament before he takes things farther.

But I must say I would rather have seen him signed for a while longer.

Extraordinary.

97 posts about a player virtually unheard of and no-one is even the slightest bit "underwhelmed" like so many were when we signed Scott from Ross County, Palsson from a crap EPL club's reserve team, an injury prone midfielder who wasn't rated on some fans' message board in the Est Midlands, and a tall muscular forward who'd only scored 15 goals in the last 5 years.

Now, everyone's ecstatic about a striker who has scored 4 goals since 2003.

Virtually is the key word. I remember Vaz Te for Bolton and although he never stood out I remember him coming off the bench in the Premiership - considered by many the best league in the world. Palson and Scott - I literally hadn't heard of, so inital reaction is 'who?'.

Either way I have been impressed by CC's signings and have full trust in any player he deems good enough to wear the green and white.

I think what you're identifying is mild euphoria and a sense of relief. It has the same effect as laughing gas; even the most inane news can result in choruses of whooping and cheering. :greengrin

Some vaguely interesting points:

1) Good to see CC bring in someone with Vazte experience, just what we need...
2) When have you ever heard a footballer use the word "ambiance" before, should fit in nicely :wink:
3) Divis signed an 18 month deal IIRC :agree:
4) There once was a Hibee from Bolton, Whose view of Vaz Te was "he's rotten", he had a good moan, which turned into a groan, when Ricardo scored the winner vs Hamilton...

I am reliably informed it is a pay as you play type deal until the end of the season which can only be be a good thing given his injury problems. Although hopefully he can prove he's worth a permanent deal!!!!

Has Rodders managed to negotiate his ultimate dream deal, where the player pays the club to play football :wink::greengrin

Aye - easily confused with Green and Glaikit but Andy's just glaikit :wink:

I don't remember much about his Bolton time, but if he's fast and powerful, as has been suggested, then he's got a good chance of doing well in the SPL. Look at Kyle, he's only got the 'powerful' attribute and he does a good job for the Yams.

If we have two forwards who can trouble defenders in the physical battles, we should do well.

Look,

I get the realism of posters identifying issues with his career such as game time, injuries and goals.

I also get the euphoria of those who see his joining as a celebration of capturing a player who has played at a higher level and on occassion done reasonably well.

Weighing both up he's got his pros and his cons but Calderwoods performance thus far on the signing front have been pretty much spot on. Whilst this guy is not a goal machine he does emit a certain style of class and hopefully he can bring this aspect of his game to the SPL. I hope that playing at this level will encourage the best out of him as he sets out to prove himself worthy of career ressurrection. He will find the SPL defences a little easier to breach than those in EPL, though those who have come to our league with the stroll it attitude usually are found wanting. Hopefully he is coming here to repay his faith in CC's belief.

Lets not forget we had little to be happy about in just little over a month ago, now the teams getting results and the mood has lifted, whilst I don't want to let go realism entirely, lets enjoy the moment, it's been short lived enough and I'm in no desperate rush to return to the moody doldrums.

Suffice to say, Mon the Vase Tae!!

I don't know much about Vaz Te's career but he seems like a footballer who's lost his way and is looking to get his career back on track - it worked for Stokes so lets hope it works for Vaz as well and that, if he's a success, he hangs around long enough to repay Hibs for giving him that chance.
