January Signings (Latest - Robertson signed, Claros Loan Extended - Confirmed)

[sambajustice]

Transfer window open! Have Hibs signed anyone yet?? Nut!! Total lack of ambition!

Eff off Fenlon!

PETRIE!!!!!

[AugustaHibs]

Where is that bloke that did the bed sheet protest, he could be useful.

[lord bunberry]

Typical hibs we always leave it to the last minute petrie out butcher in

[Smiggy 7-0]

According to THE SUN - Sproule will be off to St.Johnstone and we get Liam Craig in return - thoughts anyone ??????

:agree: We need more bed sheets, and a couple of Duvets as well, Petrie has been letting us down in the linen department generally for years.

Ivan is/was a good servant to Hibs and I for one will always hold him in high regard. Will always get a welcome back at Easter Road from me at least, [suspect from a good few others as well], however, having said that, think he has now run his course and is time for both him and the Club to part ways. IF we are getting Craig in exchange, then it really is a good piece of business. All the very best Ivan, hope the move works out well for you, a real gent and genuinely holds Hibs close to his heart.

:agree:

[KWJ]

I tend to agree and would really like to see Liam Craig come in. Although Ivan's not really had that much of a chance since the confidence has increased in the team and I wouldn't mind seeing him play as a striker again. Although I wouldn't drop LG & ED and also want to see Caldwell get more of a run so it's unlikely.

On the wing he doesn't seem to have the unexpected about him before which had defenders fearing him. Cuts back all the time.

[ALF TUPPER]

New Years Day 2013 14:09
Still no signings!! Sack them all , the board, Fenlon, backroom staff, players, caterers, stewards, programme sellers , support !!

No ambition from the wee team . ;-)

GGTTH & Happy New Year all Hibbys worldwide x

Ivan was exciting as he was 'raw' and he himself probably didnt know what he was going to do at times. Since he has matured he is too predictable and actually negative imo.
Was great to have had the wee man at Hibs and we all will have fond memories but I am sure if he moves on and we get Craig in, everyone will be very pleased.

With you on that statement. I hate losing hibees but I do think it is quite obvious Pat doesn't rate him and its not fair to leave him languishing in the stand.

Will always be a legend for me! Good luck Ivan, you will always get a cheer from me when you return home.

[Hibbyradge]

Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeese.

[MrSmith]

Toooaaastieeeeeee Good Idea!

[Northernhibee]

Considering he's been a good role model for the youngsters and always given 100% in the green and white that's a bit of a disrespectful statement.

[essexhibee]

:aok:

The guy loves Hibs and will always be one of the family. St Johnstone would be a good move for him I think. Last season I saw an Ivan utterly devoid of confidence, scared to take on a man and offering the team nothing. This season I actually think hes been better...thought he played a blinder v Hearts in winning the ball and running the clock down.

[lord bunberry]

agreed...... loves the hibs. Second time round (like most returns) been less than successful..........

.....time for Ivan to move on - with all our best wishes. Once a Hibby, always a Hibby. :flag:

[lord bunberry]

Why?

What has Ivan sproule ever done to be treated so disrespectfully things maybe haven't worked out so well this time round but he always gives 100% and can leave with his head held high

[GoldenEagle]

Correct. The way the minority of fans treat 'one of our own' is an embarrassment to the majority. I wish it'd stop to be honest.

[JollyGreenGiant]

Agreed. A great player first time round, and always felt he genuinely loved the club and the fans!

All the best Ivan!

[Hermit Crab]

Take off the tinted specs mate. I

[Centre Hawf]

Ivan hasn't left yet so for now he is a Hibs player and a passionate one at that. I think in a time like last season it was good to have someone who genuinely cared for the club. I think we should treat him with more respect. If he does go then all the best to him.

On a signing front it would be brilliant to get Liam Craig in, would be a good in an out when Claros goes.

[Hermit Crab]

Correct. The way the minority of fans treat 'one of our own' is an embarrassment to the majority. I wish it'd stop to be honest.

How is he one of our own?

[Franck Stanton]

How is he one of our own?

Granted he didn't grow up a Hibby, however, after signing first time around took the Club and supporters to his heart. Has NEVER said a bad word about the Hibs and always gave his all for the jersey. Now, over past few years how many players can the same be said of ? IF he does go, then it will be with the best wishes of all SENSIBLE Hibs supporters. Been a good servant who genuinely loved the Club/supporters.

[AugustaHibs]

Apparently Ryan Mcgowan is going to hearts, poor move for him if so, hate the guy but a very decent player

[Diclonius]

So Riordan found.

As regards Sproule, if he is away in a swap for Craig then it's a good deal for us but he leaves with my gratitude for his performances the first time here and commitment both times.

[fat freddy]

:agree: Beyond belief that Sproule doesn't go with our best wishes and fond memories if / when he does. His first spell with us earns him a place in the family, the hunbox hat trick ensures that for me.

[Baldy Foghorn]

Ivan's second spell at us, has let's be honest, been pretty crap....Does this make me not a sensible Hibs supporter?

Yes he had some good moments in his first spell, but feel the time is right to go....Craig coming in would be a great piece of business......

[Pretty Boy]

If Sproule goes he has my beat wishes and that hat trick at Ibrox was one of my best days as a Hibs supporters.

However most SENSIBLE Hibs supporters can see he now offers very little and allowing him to go to bring in Liam Craig or even to free up a wage is a good deal for the club, and probably for the player as well.

It has been crap, but you could still wish him well and still be a sensible supporter.

Second spell hasn't been that great granted and I think the time to move on has come regardless, my issue is why would anyone take a pot at Ivan if/when he does go. He has given more than he has taken out of the club and I recall Fenlon saying about the effort he still puts in in training and behind the scenes. Good business if we got Craig, no question but turning it into having a go at Ivan is plain daft.

Once a player leaves the mighty Hibernian, they become persona non grata for me........:cb

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

From a football point of view, Ivan will play a lot more at McDiarmid than he did at ER and if he has looked after his finances properly, that should matter more to him at this stage of his career rather than money. Can't help but think that his return was a mixture of vanity and appeasement, but Sproule's commitment to the jersey has never been in question.

[scoopyboy]

[3pm]

Folk will still be talking about Sproule in 20 years. Maybe not a great player nor a legend like the F5, Joe Baker or the TT's but he achieved something legendary that will be talked about for years.

Good luck Ivan.

[Shrekko]

Read this a lot these days and think its utterly ridiculous. Would Pat Stanton be 'persona non grata' when he left?

Southampton fans gave Walcott and Oxelade Chamberlain a great reception today when they played Arsenal and seeing as neither left under a cloud that's the way it should be. If someone has played for my club and contributed there's no way I'm booing them or whatever.

[basehibby]

Surprising that Liam Craig is being touted as he's listed as a central midfielder on wiki (is this defo correct?) - a position we already have a lot of cover for. If Ivan is going then the need to sign a good wide player will be more urgent than ever.

Exactly this. He will always be given a good reception by the Hibs fans.

I don´t recall noticing Craig in terms of him catching the eye against us.

Central midfield, if we lose Claros then we are diminished in that part of the team. Taiwo is yet to convince. Deegan seems to have more about his game, but both are lacking in terms of creativity and getting forward.

I do wonder if we will see either Cairney or Wotherspoon going into centre mid (favoured positions for both?), especially if we were to stick with the 4-5-1 formation we used against Celtic (which I liked).

The team desperately needs more of a goal threat from the centre mid. Both Cairney and Wotherspoon could potentially provide that. I also reckon Doyle was pretty effective out wide right. All we need then is an attacking player to play left mid, Callum Booth perhaps?

Fairly certain that he is adept at playing on the left too. Good player from what I've seen of him, also scored 4 goals against Hearts on my Football Manager save recently - another plus in my book. :greengrin

Agree. great servant and 100% effort everytime he played. Will also support him back at ER if/when he leaves.

What the same guy that always seems to score against us, have you been watching the games when we play him?

[Callum_62]

Any chance of this deal being done before the derby??

[JimBHibees]

Yep he has scored a rake of goals against us.

Craig is very much a solid left sided midfielder. Half decent on the ball, can take a decent set piece, has a physical presence and ok in the air and also is a genuine goal threat. Would be a very god signing IMO.

[Craig_in_Prague]

Any chance of this deal being done before the derby??

Will be a lot clearer when we see the Saintees squad today (if we are signing him at all, would be nice if he made the derby but to be honest I'd go with same team anyway with McGivern in for Lewis... but if L. Craig is not in the squad today then it'll look good for us)

[superfurryhibby]

What the same guy that always seems to score against us, have you been watching the games when we play him?

That´s a constructive reply. I tend to focus on Hibs players, unless there´s something that makes another team´s player really stand out. What did you think of my broader point, that we have plenty central midfielders and could do with someone who can do the job playing out wide, or is that stretching the grey matter a step too far to be bothered with a reasoned reply?

He is a left sided midfielder.

[Devilstorment]

Sproule has been a great servant of Hibs (both first and current spell) as mentioned by others his Hun Hatrick puts him in the history books as a hibs legend! His second spell with us has not been anywhere near as prolific however I still rate him as a player.

I think its a good move for us as a club, I imagine Sproule will be one of our higher earners and if we can bring in a quality player (with more of a shelf life left) on slightly less wages. That can only be a good move business wise.

What we need to remember is that we all want to see the club move forward and with respect to Ivan (and other players who have returned to ER Garry, Derek, Ian et al) we are not a retirement home that they can draw a pension out of.

For Sproule i think a move will see him get more first team football and surely that is what he wants.

If it happens I'll be happy, if it doesn't then I won't be demanding Fenlon and Petrie's head. We will just move on to other targets

[murraymckirdy]

According to THE SUN - Sproule will be off to St.Johnstone and we get Liam Craig in return - thoughts anyone ??????

:aok:
Didny ken about sproule going but heard we signed a midfielder from St.Johnstone on a pre-contract, then heard it was Liam Craig so could be some truth to it or the same rumour thats found it was to me haha

[Eyrie]

Craig is very much a solid left sided midfielder. Half decent on the ball, can take a decent set piece, has a physical presence and ok in the air and also is a genuine goal threat. Would be a very god signing IMO.
He's a decent player, but I wouldn't put him in the Stanton/Sauzee class :wink:

Craig on the left allows Cairney to move infield which, combined with Wotherspoon/Doyle (depends on 4.4.2 or 4.5.1), gives us a goal threat from midfield. Deegan or Taiwo can hold things together if we can't extend Claros.

[superfurryhibby]

He is a left sided midfielder.

Left footed but plays centre mid. Has a decent goals to game ratio, 30 in 200 appearances. I would like to see a winger signed, the team desperately needs some pace out wide. My post suggests that we already have enough cover in centre mid and possibly have the creativity we need already on the books (Spoon or Cairney).

Constructivley accurate aye? I was making the point that he has scored regularly against us and always been a thorn in our side, I was surprised you didnt acknowledge that.

As pointed out he is a left midfielder so he could be that player you want to do the job out wide, a better option than Calum Booth as you mentioned as a possability IMO.

I agree wee need a CM who will get us some goals and more an attacking threat, the 2 you mentioned may well be the answer to that.

Grey matter stretched enough now?

Well that´s a better answer than your first atempt. I just find that kind of reply rather wide for the sake of it.No need really.

Out of interest, how many goals has he actually scored against us? As I said, I´ve never noticed him as a stand out player and generally tend to focus on what Hibs players do during games. I believe Craig is left footed central midfielder. We have a fair number of guys who can play there, even if, as I suspect, Claros goes.

AS for Booth, it´s a case of unfulfilled potential. He seemed to have the necesary skills when he came into the team. Not really sure why he has fallen by the wayside but I would love to see him being given a chance as a left mid in this side.

I'm very surprised and disappointed we seem to be losing a good Irishman in Sproule, i know we are replacing him with another in Liam Craig, but we are still a long way off fielding an all Irish 11.

I didnt think it was particularly wide to be honest just made a direct point.

I agree with another one of your comments that we really lack wingers / pace in our team, I dont expect LC to change that but I do think he would be an improvement on what we have and would allow Cairney to move inside.

Unfulfilled potential indeed, and I suspect this will remain the case although I hope not. I suppose Spoony has turned things around a fair bit this season so who knows maybe Callum will do the same. Still believe we need actual wingers and some pace in our team.

7 goals against hibs in 13 matches

[Bad Martini]

Still recall many huns asking "who is HE?" when he come on as a sub THAT day.....the rest, is history.

If he goes, he goes with our best wishes. We've had plenty lazy, fat, overpaid, journeymen over the last few years. Ivan, whilst at times lacking in the skill, at many other times, has been joyous, particularly when he was giving Usain Bolt a run for his money in the sprint stakes during his first spell. And I dont recall him giving much less than 100% either.

No, his final ball was never perfect and yes, he missed some chances he might have scored. However, he cost us **** all in relative terms and I'd think we'd all have happily paid to buy THAT hattrick!

Best wishes Ivan son if ye go. If ye dinnae go, how about slapping a few in the merricks net for old times sake? :thumbsup:

GGTTH.

ENDOF

[HibeeN]

and yes, he missed some chances he might have scored.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpRHzfNWVGc

Agree with you there :greengrin

If he goes, he goes with well-wishes and as one of my favourite players for Hibs after all he's done for the club. Will always remember his first spell here and the excitement when he got the ball and went on one of his runs. And a player that you believed geniuniely loved the club.

All the best to him, whatever happens. :thumbsup:

In terms of those 3, I think Brown was applauded when he'd done his warm up, Thomson was roundly booed and Whittaker was booed by a few. I haven't booed any of them and I certainly don't think they are 'persona non grata'- i'll always think of them fondly for their times at ER.

The same liam craig who was born in chirnside and has represented scotland. Not doubting he has irish heritage though.

:tee hee:

ST JOHNSTONE: Mannus, MacKay, C.Davidson, Wright, Millar, M.Davidson, Tade, Craig, McCracken, Pawlett, Vine.

Dont look like craig will be signing before the derby

[Green&White]

Will be a lot clearer when we see the Saintees squad today (if we are signing him at all, would be nice if he made the derby but to be honest I'd go with same team anyway with McGivern in for Lewis... but if L. Craig is not in the squad today then it'll look good for us)

Looks like the Wolves manager is about to get his jotters. Might need to sort out Sparky's situation a bit lively in case a new manager fancies him.

[superfurryhibby]

Has always played left mid in a 4 when I have seen him.

Just been on the Saints forum. They say Craig has played wide left and in the centre. Apparently the player himself prefers a central mid role. One thing for sure, they don´t fancy Sproule signing on for them!

If Claros goes then Craig seems to have the credentials to replace him, I still think we need an out and out wide midfielder.

[PatHead]

St Johnstone manager Steve Lomas is hoping to keep Liam Craig at the club: "Liam has been a great servant to this club. He gives nothing but 100% every week. But if he decides [to leave] we shake his hand and wish him all the best." on bbc

That's funny cos it's true. A whole hearted player who gave us some thrills. Mainly in his first spell. He and Hibs will leave a lasting impression on each other. Sorry to see him go, but I think his time at Hibs has probably come to an end. If he were to score against us in the future, I doubt he would celebrate. The next minute, he would probably hit the corner flag though. Still, wish all out players had his passion and commitment to the jersey.

Lyle could be a good signing!

[JimBHibees]

Hearing more whispers about Boyd! Got sent this too, wiki says his agent is in talks? Hope so

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kris_Boyd

Personally would hope not. Stinking attitude IMO.

Got deleted on wiki so was probably crap! I'd have him ahead of Lyle Taylor if we had the option, but reckonLT could be good for us, a different option up front.

From a trusted source from Falkirk.

Lyle Taylor is a target and likely to be coming.

Friends are Falkirk fans and the rate this boy highly. 6ft 2 got a bit about him and apparantly scores for fun (albeit it its Div 1)

[MoscowHibs]

Kuqi has an option on his deal for a further year with us. Anyone know what the criteria is for it to be triggered?

Tae score a ********* goal might help.

who was it on here who said we should look at the lad Doris from Arbroath, Birmingham taking a look according to the record, apparently had a trial and impressed.


A shall take the credit for that one thanks :wink:

Nah in all serious .. a just thought that he had a blinder against Celtic and had their back 4 in the his pocket all game, His strength and the way he held up the ball was fantastic and thought he was maybe worth a look!

but according to a some on here .. we need to look a bit higher :rolleyes::greengrin

I spoke to Danny Rennie (lovely guy) who plays for Arbroath over the Christmas period - he reckoned that Doris is the best player in that division.

Doris certainly looked good in the cup tie v Celtic.

Hopefully that's what fenlon is now looking for ... and telling the Scouts their are players that can enhance our squad from the lower divisions, As someone said at the weekend their was 8 SPL scouts at the QOS game at the weekend taking a look at am assuming was the winger and the striker, Reilly and carmicheal i would easily have all 3 in the hibs team!

but doris has something with out a doubt as he kind of reminds me of a stephen dobbie. :greengrin

Why do we always seem to wait till the latter part of the transfer window to make signings? I would have thought all the players would have been identified, existing clubs notified and deals struck, possibly just personal terms to be agreed?

Thats us nalf way thorugh the window and still no signings. Dont get me wrong im not moaning about it just would have thought things would have been sorted sooner. Possibly players waiting to see what offers they get and hedging their bets till the end of the window?

Players and clubs hedging. You line up player A but you have to shift player B to be able to afford him. Player B is waiting on club C to shift player D so you're hamstrung and in the meantime player A gets sounded out by clubs F and Q. So you hang on to B on the offchance you can't get A and etc etc etc. ...

You end up missing the window, having to pay off A and signing Kuqi. :rolleyes:

No doubt about it, that was certain Dorris's day. But will we sign him...que sera, sera.

OK before im shot I know its from football-rumours and prob a loady pish but this was posted on the QPR page:

QPR are to see one player come in and one player leave Loftus Road.
Nottingham Forest striker Simon Cox will undergo a medical at Rangers after a deal just under £3 million was accepted late last night.
Leaving QPR is DJ Campbell. The former Hayes & Yeading striker has asked manager Harry Redknapp to leave as he feels he won't be getting much first team football. The 31 year old is in talks with Scottish club Hibernian over a loan deal until the end of the season.

Are rangers still banned from signing? That's the impression I was under anyway.

Dj Campbell on loan would be a terrific signing
