David Gray

[brog]

Ex Yam youth player who we were linked with a season or so back is having a mare for Stevenage today. Scored an og, been booked (11th of season!) & given a goal away! Can't believe we missed out on him! :grr:

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Please forgive me, but, I've never heard of him! :-)

Similar to Danny Galbraith. Think Yams got £50k for him when he went as a 16yo to Man U.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Silver lining for us then!

[Up The Bracket]

Think we signed Michael Hart instead of him actually.

The guy is probably used to playing on grass.

He shouldn't be on anything. He's a professional athlete ffs!

[Pretty Boy]

Think it's time to Draw The Line with this one. The lad played today like he was living Life in Slow Motion today but It's a New Day at Midnight.

Not sure if Stevenagr will want to Sell Sell Sell anyway.

[JimBHibees]

I know he made a mistake for the third goal however thought he looked composed and one of the few players looking to pass the ball on the beach of a pitch,

Seriously? I thought he was p!sh from start to finish.

Opinions, eh :greengrin

The pitch was a leveller though. :greengrin

Didnt think he was that bad.

heard the Stevenage manager said at a press conference, "if you want him, come and get him, for crying out loud".

[Ritchie]

David is a good player who has just been unlucky with injuries. Man Utd thought highly enough of him to offer him a contract extension which he refused because he wanted guaranteed first team football - so he moved to Preston.

Hibs did offer him a contract but he refused. Think he enjoys life down south.

[GraniteCityHibs]

He just needs to go somewhere, where.....he.........can............shine!

[matty_f]

Wonder if this one would be considered cheap dross that the club rushed to announce as Stubbs' first signing?

Seriously though, can you think of a signing that had a bigger impact than Sir David Gray?

Whatever happened to Bikey and Elias Wagner?

Nope he is now one of our most iconic players and will be remembered for generations.

No. In a few years he’ll get the status he deserves, not to say we don’t appreciate him now. I think we should just enjoy watching him while we can. David Gray - legend.

[The 90+2]

Keith Wright?

Close.

Haha belter of a thread! Amazing really. Nothing against the OP though. Sounds like he had a shocker that game haha.

One plays in Cyprus and the other sends recorded messages to football fans on Twitter and supports Dundee.

Personally, I’m delighted we ended up signing him. He has proved to be worth every penny of the £8k per week we are paying him.

[brog]

Absolute classic! What made you dig it up?

Someone mentioned David Gray in the favourite transfer rumours thread so I thought it would be funny to have a look, a google search of “David Gray Hibs.net” brought this one up, had a good laugh at it.

Has to be THE best dredged up thread ever!

Credit to you, Sir. Credit!

[Bostonhibby]

I'm with JimBhibees on this one, we should sign the guy as cover, he probably can't header a ball but can't be any worse than Kujabi.

Drove through Dunfermline today and noticed that.. missing “Sir” at the start though

What lessons can we learn (then forget) from a thread like this? :wink:

Coz he turned the Knighthood down. Well done.

Aye, was amusing to see your David Gray 'insight' back in 2013.

Your excellent 'this it how feels' posts will never be taken seriously again :greengrin

Truly excellent! I had completely forgotten it (probably a deep psychosis thing! :wink:). I've always prided myself on spotting a good player having a bad game & vice versa. May have to revise my own self opinion! TBF though I only commented factually on SDG's performance in that game & fortunately other more esteemed posters put my offering in the shade. :agree:
As a follow up, maybe you can find the thread where Stubbsy signed SDG? :greengrin

[nonshinyfinish]

Sometimes good players have bad games.

Sometimes good players look bad in a bad team.

Sometimes good players look bad in bad conditions.

Sometimes good posters make bad judgements. :greengrin


Seriously? I thought he was p!sh from start to finish.

Honestly, when the SDG statue goes up outside ER, this should be inscribed on the base as a warning to future generations.

This is why all of us are arguing on the internet rather than managing a professional football team.

That having a negative opinion or making a negative prediction about a player before he signs obviously has no correlation to his performances on the pitch so people should stop getting themselves worked into a frenzy every time someone does it.

Jonnyboy, presume this morning is a bit like “this is how it feels”😜

Jonnyboy, presume this morning is a bit like “this is how it feels”[emoji12]Everyone is allowed one mistake in life.

I got something wrong once myself, can't remember what it was for sure but think it might have been when we signed Rowan Vine or Kuqi or appointed Butcher or Calder wood, or was it thinking the Scottish cup was in the bag when we swapped Ian Munro for Ally Scott and Graham Fyfe?
