Any new signing rumours? (merged)

[Leighonel]

Ross Noble?

www.usefultalent.com/talent/ross-noble/product-endorsements/
Maybe it is to give the players a wee laugh before they go out to play

[Hibee87]

Ross Noble?

You mean ryan noble from Sunderland :confused:


otherwise that curly haired fandan who calls himself a comedien can GTF, not hibs class :wink:

[Speedway]

My gut tells me we'll announce KT and Vine if anyone at all. Here's hoping! :flag:

I see those two and I raise you a third.

Need to be registered today, to play in next weeks game

[Hibbyradge]

Always wanted to start one of these:greengrin

Today to the transfer deadline for us to buy or loan any player to be eligible to play for us in this seasons Europa League competition


:flag:

I don't think that's quite accurate.

[Col2]

What time is the deadline today?

[Col2]

Would love a triple signing day of Vine, Taylor and Thomson this afternoon, the same day BDO and yam fans are waiting patiently for news of any decent bids for HOMFC (IA) !!!

[JeMeSouviens]

11pm - only applies to the Malmo games.

Once we've cruised past them, our next glut of signings can play in QR3. :greengrin

[scoopyboy]

Latest update I have is nothing terribly exciting but is FACTually correct.

Rowan Vine has been training at EM as has McManus.

The ex Torquay striker who bullied hundreds at the ice cream q at Luca's before getting a toffee fudgy wudgy 3 scoop tub was shown round EM but did not train.

Lyle Taylor has not been seen by the players at EM but that is not unusual in itself as often targets are shown round in off peak viewing times.

KT one year still to be announced but should be in time for Euro deadline.

The bit in bold - I've been away on holiday the last week or so and am far too lazy to read back through the thread - does that mean we have had a bid accepted for him?

Before I left the word seemed to be that we weren't pursuing it any further...

[cloudy]

So can we expect a few signings to be announced around lunchtime or late afternoon 2 strikers (Taylor or noble and Vine) KT and possibly McManus

[21.05.2016]

@BarryAnderson_8: #Falkirk will accept around £200,000 for striker Lyle Taylor. #Hibs have offered £150,000 so far, according to @Dennynews.

So we can count this story as bull **** then? Or is it only hearts he fabricates stories for?

[davhibby]

Are we not allowed 1 change-so we could add one new signing-early next week?

[neil7908]

I see those two and I raise you a third.

Sounds very promising, without giving too much away, any idea when we may hear an announcement/confirmation of signings?

[Heisenberg]

We made another bid of 150k which was knocked back. I'd be surprised if we went in for him again.

[neil7908]

We made another bid of 150k which was knocked back. I'd be surprised if we went in for him again.

Thanks for the info, hadn't heard that. I liked the look of Taylor when we played Falkirk in the semi final but hard to say based on that 1 game if he is worth much more than 100-150k.

I thought he led the line well, ran our defence ragged and also held the ball up. Although he fluffed his lines in front of goal I felt his general play was instrumental in the way Falkirk scored their goals against us. His scoring record in Div 1 also shows he knows where the back of the net is.

Would be pleased if he signs but if the club dont value him more than the current offer I would understand.

[Pedantic_Hibee]

What's everyone eating?

[KanyeWestLower]

No way the club should pay anymore than 150k for Taylor. You could get a proven SPL goal scorer for 200k

[NYHibby]

Are we not allowed 1 change-so we could add one new signing-early next week?

Yes, we can add one player after the deadline.


18.13 List A has to be submitted by the following fixed deadlines:
a) 24 June 2013 (24.00 CET) for all matches in the first qualifying round;
b) 12 July 2013 (24.00 CET) for all matches in the second qualifying round;
c) 26 July 2013 (24.00 CET) for all matches in the third qualifying round;
d) 12 August 2013 (24.00 CET) for all matches in the play-off round;
e) 2 September 2013 (24.00 CET) for all further matches from the first match
in the group stage up to and including the final.

18.14 For the three qualifying rounds and the play-offs, a club may register a
maximum of one new eligible player on List A after the above-mentioned
deadlines, provided the quota of locally trained players is respected. Such
registration must be completed by 24.00 CET on the day before the relevant
first-leg match and the club's association must confirm in writing that the new
player is eligible to play at domestic level at this time.

[hibeequinn]

On bbc gossip falkirk have asked hibs to up there offer for lyle taylor why dont petrie jus5 bid 180k with a sell on fee.

[nribs]

What's Paul Hefferman up to these days?

[DH1875]

On bbc gossip falkirk have asked hibs to up there offer for lyle taylor why dont petrie jus5 bid 180k with a sell on fee.

Because he's not worth it.

[Hermit Crab]

They already accepted a 200k bid from Rotherham United. Taylor couldn't agree terms so the deal fell through.

I think they'll meet in the middle at 175k. Falkirk wanted 200 and hibs offered 150

[SaulGoodman]

We could've got Griffiths for 150k FACT


:duck:

[Speedway]

Because he's not worth it.

a 22 year old guy who scores 24 goals in 34 games isn't worth it?

Griffiths never scored more than 22 in that division.

[hibeequinn]

Who?

All your proven spl strikers are well over 700k by now a would think taylor for 200k is a great deal in my opinion

[Speedway]

I've gone with a caramac for this one and I'm looking at a fruit pastilles ice lolly as the deadline approaches.

[LeighLoyal]

He had 7 in 30 for the first loan spell. Petrie probably thought a similar return would guarantee his release. Brian Rice is a better gambler!

I happen to think he is and if he signs will be proved right.

But Griffiths wasn't 22 years old when he was playing in that division. He was under 20.

I've went for a triple decker sarnie with Galloways spreadable cheese as the filling. To complement this, I've added two strawberry mousse yogurts, three packets of assorted crisps and a chocolate Breakaway. And yesterday's Sun newspaper *spits*.

Yes IMO we probably couldn't afford his wages. Plus doubt he was interested in us. Just because we can afford a player doesn't mean they want to play for us

Yes it is an answer. But not an answer that is not worth much. Why would we be interested in the price of players that don't want to play for us.

[KanyeWestLower]

Yes it is an answer. But not an answer that is not worth much. Why would we be interested in the price of players that don't want to play for us.

Who says Taylor is interested? With not paying a transfer fee there would have been more wages available, tell me Higdon isn't after the cash

[hibIBZ]

I don't think I mentioned Taylor at all. I asked who is available for 200k and higdon is definitely not available as he signed for Nijmegen

Nah, I think I touched upon the subject of my utter jealousy that you can ram so much down your throat and remain skinny in a previous legendary transfer deadline day thread :wink:

[FromTheCapital]

Lyle Taylor was a handful against us in the Semi! Okay, our defending was absolutely shocking but I'd be more than happy to see him unveiled at Hibs today! Going to be very optimistic and say that we are going to sign Taylor, Vine and Thomson today. :pray:

[Pedantic_Hibee]

Talking of which, we're only 6 weeks or so away from August's Deadline Day Thread.

I suspect our business will most likely have been concluded by then so we'll have to go some to top previous threads. I might cook a meal from scratch to keep things moving along whilst simultaneously slavering over Natalie Sawyer for two very good reasons.

Take this apart at your pleasure:

Had a call a little while ago from a source (PSF Edinburgh-Based) to pass on what they've heard and it's a stretch to believe it but fascinating if true.

Reason for not bidding £200k for LT and getting it over and done with on Monday was because Rodders wanted to hold back the money whilst he carried on negotiating with a certain midlands club who play in old gold so that Hibs could register one of their players (not Berra) today.

It's failed in terms of a deal being done this week but 'watch this space' is what I've just been told.

As I say, feel free to shoot down. I don't know it's validity only that the source would be involved in a certain aspect of such a deal.

The latter.

It was hinted that big money (in Hibs terms) was being offered. I asked what that was and got blanked. I was asked what our club record fee was, I answered £500,000 (UDLC doesn't count) and the source (who is an egg chaser) said, 'in that case, your lot are offering a club record fee.'

Still don't know the number or any sell on % or anything more than the above.

No I think it was the deal down south that stalled ...but I believe from what I read it is not dead yet !!!!

[Wilson]

There seems, to me, a bit of danger in holding off and holding off on a signing. A concern is that Wolves keep Griff and Taylor gets a better offer or fed up with being messed around.

I could see us ending up with neither.

Taylor isnt being messed around yet though. That would be the case if we had gotten an offer accepted and then stalled to try and get LG instead. At the moment we've just not met Falkirk's valuation of him.

[21.05.2016]

I fear we are getting ourselves too over excited here guys. Leigh certainly doesn't sound like there are negotiations or a chance of him coming home in the near future and as we all know he's not one for subtlety so i'm sure he would have gave something away if there was a chance he may be returning.

This was before end of season.

He has maybe realised that keeping quiet will help .... IF he wants to come back !!

[Speedway]

Why does the de la cruz deal not count?

Because although the number quoted in the press was bigger than the fee we paid for Keith, it wasn't just the transfer fee and therefore UDLC actually cost less than Keith in terms of transfer fee.

Petrie would not pay a club record fee for a player who could sign a pre-contract in six months time IMHO.

[21.05.2016]

Maybe I suppose. Still think it's too good to be true i'm afraid. Will be sooo happy to be proven wrong though!


Come on Rodders, make it happen son! Could even push a few undecided folk to buy ST's

[Bobby's Cinema]

Leigh returning would be simply stunning. Two new strikers in for Sweden would be very nice

[21.05.2016]

With hearts going to have a very young, weak team this year, the stronger we can make ourselves the better and have such an opportnity to give them a few thumpings!

[Speedway]

Petrie would not pay a club record fee for a player who could sign a pre-contract in six months time IMHO.

In normal circumstances I'd agree with you, but two things will happen in that six month period.

1. Wolves will try and get him to sign a much longer contract if he performs for them and

2. His agent will start touting him around actively if he doesn't.

[Pray4Marc]

Leigh's not singing for us in this window. We wouldn't pay the fee when we could get a pre contract in jan. IMO he won't be back at Easter Road, maybe late in his career. Will go onto bigger and better things.

[Hibs7]

Petrie would not pay a club record fee for a player who could sign a pre-contract in six months time IMHO.

Interesting thought .... As you say why pay that amount if LG agrees to a pre contract and a couple of hundred grand in his pocket for his troubles, that way we could have LT now and LG next season ... A verbal from LG would be enough just now ;-)

[Heedersnvolleys]

Or maybe they just realise if the need to go close to £200k Taylor who is still a bit of a gamble why not pay a bit more for someone who is proven????

[SaulGoodman]

Petrie would not pay a club record fee for a player who could sign a pre-contract in six months time IMHO.

Could being the key word. If he performs well at Wolves, which we all know he will, he'll go into bigger things than us.

[Pedantic_Hibee]

I said to a few folk a few weeks ago that I could foresee us having Taylor on a 3 year deal plus an experienced striker on a one year deal to augment the existing Handling and Caldwell, and then next year we'd have Taylor and Sparky on a free with the two laddies beside them.

I might not be all that far wrong to be fair.

And that's almost as bad as being holed up indoors with swollen, streaming eyes and an itching throat that can't be fixed!

[Cocaine&Caviar]

John Fleck Scotland bound on loan apparently (Twitter), would assume its Rangers though?

[West hamBERNIAN]

Except that we signed Thomson yesterday and Vine this morning.

Have we? Why not announce? Maybe wait for a triple or quadruple announcement? :confused:

[HibbyAndy]

Except that we signed Thomson yesterday and Vine this morning.


Then why is there nowt official ?

[Hermit Crab]

@HibernianFans: Hibs made a club record bid for Griffiths today still a chance of getting him back at ER #sparkyloveshibs

[Hermit Crab]

Just heard a rumour LG signing? Amazing if true.

Stop it. ;)

His version is. I know that the RP account had a lot of fun in January calling the transfers as they happened but that's easily just luck

[Andy74]

What time is the deadline to play in Europe, 5pm?

I think the registrations will have been sorted. We might not hear for a bit though.

Suspect just Thomson and Vine.

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

"@Sir_RodPetrie: @OllieJohnstone @HibernianFans @MarcDuncan97 it wasn't today, it's much more than 500k. It smashes are club record. I can't say anymore."

Surely no?

Does signing Thomson mean no more Jorge? :rolleyes:

As an avid twitter user, this is basically a quote of speedways earlier post

[AJWisme]

Any info getting thrown about on Twitter seems to be linked back to here one way or another. I think to not get carried away would be the thing to do! Hope I'm wrong however.

Why would we not hear for a bit?

I know we don't announce it all until its all complete but I think hibs can sometimes almost try and be too smart with the delay in announcing signings, if they're registered just get us told.

[Hibstrooper]

"@Sir_RodPetrie: @OllieJohnstone @HibernianFans @MarcDuncan97 it wasn't today, it's much more than 500k. It smashes are club record. I can't say anymore."

Surely no?

Is he not just taking his info from here though and implying he knows more but can't say? I could have easily written a similar tweet after reading Speedway's update.

As much as I'd love to see it, I just can't see it happening. Griffiths is worth more in potential goals to Wolves than we'll ever be able to offer

[Leishy1995]

So is it just pish then or is there something in it?

Do you trust speedway? Cause IMO that's where that tweet comes from. The ending might mean he's got a bit more

[Bob Box Fish]

What time is the deadline to play in Europe, 5pm?

Midnight

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

Do you trust speedway? Cause IMO that's where that tweet comes from. The ending might mean he's got a bit more

To be fair, I haven't had an account on here that long to see enough of his posts to believe them. I do hope they are true though!

[Scònaldò]

Not an incoming transfer but was speaking to Martin Scott today and he confirmed he's been released from us.

He's been down at Southend on trial but wants to stay up here.

Wind up nap. Maybe there is something in it. LG is very quiet on twitter at the moment.

He said he was going for a nap, last time he done that he got loaned back to us and Steven fletcher tweeted a photo of him a pre season

[SMAXXA]

The latter.

It was hinted that big money (in Hibs terms) was being offered. I asked what that was and got blanked. I was asked what our club record fee was, I answered £500,000 (UDLC doesn't count) and the source (who is an egg chaser) said, 'in that case, your lot are offering a club record fee.'

Still don't know the number or any sell on % or anything more than the above.

Why doesn't UDC count Speedy?

[sambajustice]

Must be utter bollocks!!

Our record fee is about 3/4 miliion quid. If we were to spend that sort of cash on one player, I for one would be pretty pissed off!

That sort of dosh could virtually buy you 2nd place if used correctly!

Someone is at the wind up or I've missed something earlier and I'm missing the joke!

[Andy74]

Why doesn't UDC count Speedy?

The actual transfer fee was very minimal. Even with wages the whole thing was completely overplayed.

[YehButNoBut]

Hmmmmm

Leigh Griffiths targets a new contract at Wolves

Striker Leigh Griffiths today set himself three goals – a new deal at Wolves, the League One title and a regular place for Scotland.

Griffiths got his ‘second’ Wolves career off to a flyer last night when he scored with his first touch within three minutes of coming on at the break.
He also set up the third goal for Tongo Doumbia in the opening 3-2 friendly win at East Fife.

The 22-year-old, who has spent virtually two seasons on loan at Hibernian, is now fully focused on his three-pronged target at Molineux after his first senior goal for the club.

Wolves took up the 12-month option on Griffiths’ contract in May and the new Scotland cap already wants to earn another deal.

He said: “The head coach wanted me to come back and said he was going to give me a chance, which is more than other managers have given me.

“I have just got to embrace it and give him food for thought about a new contract. If I’m in the team and scoring goals, then it’s up to him and the board to give me a new contract.

“If they don’t, I have got to enjoy this last year and help Wolves win the title and we will see where we go from there.

“That won’t be my decision. It’s up to the manager and the board, but of course I would love to sign.

“Hopefully, I get myself a regular place in the Scotland team and help Wolves to the title.”

The pressure will be on Wolves’ young squad from the first game of the season, but Griffiths insists the League One title is a realistic aim.

He said: “We are going to be a big fish and the team everyone wants to beat. But the boys have got to handle that and I’m sure the manager can handle it.

"We have got to go and perform week in, week out.”

Griffiths faces his former club Livingston in Wolves’ second friendly on Saturday and is working on his sharpness after an extended break.

He said: “I haven’t had much of a pre-season because I only joined up on Monday, but it was good to get a 45-minute workout under my belt.

“Maybe I should have scored another but I was happy to have got a goal.”

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

Wonder if we will be signing Lyle Taylor then...

[SMAXXA]

The actual transfer fee was very minimal. Even with wages the whole thing was completely overplayed.

So it wasn't 800k that was quoted if recollect correctly? Hmm didn't know that cheers mate. Who was the record signing then?

[Wilson]

I'll guess at Martin McIntosh?

[James.]

So it wasn't 800k that was quoted if recollect correctly? Hmm didn't know that cheers mate. Who was the record signing then?

Good question. Did we ever get a number on how much we paid for Stokes from Sunderland?

[bigwheel]

I'll guess at Martin McIntosh?

Off topic but probably one of the better centre halfs never to get a decent run in our team ....

[SMAXXA]

Hardly off-topic.

Poster mentions transfer fee in transfer thread - poster asks what our highest fee is - poster suggested McIntosh - poster makes comment about McIntosh...

I had cheese 'n' onion crisps as a post-lunch/pre-dinner snack.... That's off-topic...

[Pedantic_Hibee]

Food is never off-topic in a transfer thread. In fact, it's nigh on compulsory.

You know what your absalutley right I took that out of context and didn't realise it was in answer to the record signing question, which I actually asked :greengrin. Apologies I misread it and thought Martin Mackintosh was roumored signing like comments saying Shawomni's or the likes, my bad soz guys.

Ah you see, now the thread is getting un-related :wink:

[Pedantic_Hibee]

Is it an out of date topic or an in date topic? We deserve to know.

[SaulGoodman]

Does signing Thomson mean no more Jorge? :rolleyes:
You should put that smilie in your signature because its all you ever end your posts with.

[Franck Stanton]

aaagggghhhhhhhhhhh Just get a striker [or even two] signed ffs.

[Pedantic_Hibee]

Have you ever thought of just tanning your wrists?

[SquashedFrogg]

No need to get your snickers in a twist...

I'm off to gobble down a marzipan effigy of Jim White as penance.

[Pedantic_Hibee]

No need to get your snickers in a twist...

Button it, Shrimpy.

[Seveno]

All these annoying puns will be forgiven if Rodders manages to re-sign the best striker in he galaxy.

[SMAXXA]

Button it, Shrimpy.

Zip it even :greengrin

[Dunderhall]

Ok, time out for the puns, it's bounty be too far for some.

Back on topic, any one heard a whispa.

[Pedantic_Hibee]

Zip it even :greengrin

Baws!! I should've googled it first.

Doubt it, he was playing for Honduras in Haiti a couple of days ago and isn't names on the first 11 or subs for tonight.

[Part/Time Supporter]

No, because he's playing for Honduras in the Gold Cup. Their next game is at 2:30am our time tonight against El Salvador in Miami.

Yes, that's the picture. Obviously not Claros if he's playing early tomorrow.

Could be Taiwo.

Zemmama :-) Agree Taiwo!

I follow the account because they post some Hibs news but recently I've came really close to 'un-following'. Tweeting the official Wolves account like that is embarrassing.

Thats some tan if its taiwo, looks darker than claros.

[Gibby the Hibby]

Who says Taylor is interested? With not paying a transfer fee there would have been more wages available, tell me Higdon isn't after the cash


200k proven spl goalscorer...not imo

[green glory]

Thats some tan if its taiwo, looks darker than claros.

Defo Taiwo.

[Dibben]

Defo Taiwo.

Yep...

[Gibby the Hibby]

The actual transfer fee was very minimal. Even with wages the whole thing was completely overplayed.

IF UDLC doesnt count for some reason. Pat McG was 560k through tribunal, surely the record?

[HibbyKeith]

it is Taiwo. we were just saying that from afar he could pass as claros. ridiculous how good a sun tan he's taken.

[hibby rae]

Food is never off-topic in a transfer thread. In fact, it's nigh on compulsory.

It's been ages since I had a topic.

[One Day Soon]

Ah blox, Ive missed it too.

But to register my contribution I'll just say that today's food intake has been a tray of pizza meant for 5 people (yes 5) and the best part of a kilo of freshly picked cherries. Some home pickled olives made the team too.

And get this, Mrs One Day Soon - who is with me in this exotic foreign adventure - saw my pistachio cornetto (as it were) and raised me: a Mojito Solero, with rum in it. Now that's a quality ice lolly.

[Tha Cabbage Kid]

donno if its been mentioned on this thread already so sorry if it has but by the lack of action in the strikers front would it not be a good idea to try and get a loan player in from maybe the premiership or even championship for that matter ie a good forward thats not getting a game for a big club? would be a good option as we could get a good pedigree. obviously it might be too expensive for a percent of wages but surely certain demands could be low if they want their player to get game time on a good playing level

[SquashedFrogg]

It's been ages since I had a topic.

You should give it a twirl

[Wilson]

IF UDLC doesnt count for some reason. Pat McG was 560k through tribunal, surely the record?

I'm not sure. Fairly sure Martin McIntosh trumped McGinlay at the time. The question is whether we paid a higher fee again for someone ridiculous - Alen Orman perhaps?

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

Taylor no in the Falkirk squad today, away to the blades for talks?

[HibeeMG]

As has been said, we are allowed to add another player to the European squad for Thursdays game after the deadline.

Surely there is a deadline for that additional player to be registered as I can't imagine we'd be allowed to turn up with a new guy.

Anyone know when that second deadline is?
