Scottish summer transfers/contracts

[Dashing Bob S]

Out of these 3 i only see Boyd as being a threat for getting goals the other 2 really don't bother me to much, The Rangers will only play one upfront in games and it will more than likely be Boyd who gets the shout, folk giving the Rangers to much credit, they were pretty pish last season, Hibs will walk the championship.

Agreed. We had a hellish season which got turned into a nightmare one under Butcher. But even a moderately sensible manager with a half-decent team should be able to blow away the garbage in the championship.

[silverhibee]

I'm surprised at that - Daly is a handful , would love him in our team, he's dominated us on a number of occasions . And Miller is a great partner up front - willing runner , even for his age - only last year still playing for Scotland at Wembley - I'm sure he will get 20 goals this season ...plus nicky law and the boy Clarke - they are building a strong squad for our league . We will have to dig deep to compete - interesting times

Daly will either warm the bench or get moved in to the defence, slower than a week in the jail so he is, won't lose any sleep over him next season, the other two should get goals but i keep saying this is a tough league and will they be up for the rough and tumble that comes with it, i expect Boyd will be but not to sure about Miller and will McCoist play both of them upfront, another we factor is how there bodies/legs will cope with playing on 3G pitches a number of times in a season, and just to add when i seen them last season they were normally pish at the back, nothing to fear from the huns, the Hibs will stroll this league.

No idea how you can say that SH, we have a very poor bunch of players at the club at the moment, and we have no idea who we will sign.

@TyroneSTV: Gary Harkins is set to complete a move back to Dundee within the next 24 hours

It's beginning to feel like Hibs are under a transfer embargo for being crap last season.
Time we got our finger out.

It's one thing being up for the game when you're playing for Scotland against them at Wembley. That doesn't mean he'll fancy it in the same way when it's against Dumbarton in the pishing rain.

I think Miller will be decent enough for them, but Boyd will be the only one getting 20+ goals.

time will tell, I didn't see Daly at all last year, but the season before he was almost unplayable at times - so expect to see him as one of their main target men for a big part of next season. He isn't fast, but neither was Higdon, who won player of the year in his last season up here...think you are underestimating Daly's current level of performance - that said - hope you're right! :) As for the stroll the league comment...haha, at the moment our squad wouldn't even stroll league 2! so we need a quality set of incomers to compete at the top of this table that's for sure..

I think Daly will play centre half next season, done a job there for Utd a couple seasons ago, definitely better than their rank rotten defence right now.

IMO deserved another chance at us. But good luck to him

Glad he's gone

[Centre Hawf]

Daly was decent the first half of the season then Sally refused to rest him at all and was burnt out for the second half and was hopeless. I wonder how his legs are fairing. He's a physical lad and will do well for them this season. But lets hope lightning strikes twice and he gets tired by midway and then its like they have 10 men on the field.

At the back Moshni is absolutely hopeless. Biggest waste of a jersey ive ever seen and that includes our trumpets that turned up for us last season. While I don't think we will walk this division. Its there to be won.

[J-C]

Apart from Thompson, McPake is injury prone and Cairney carries over a stone and isn't fit enough, no great loss.

Clever choice IMHO. Arabs also looking to sell Andrew Robertson for c. £1.75m

Hopefully the Arabs invest in a bit of infrastructure if they have that amount of money coming in.

[Heisenberg]

According to the herald we are after Shane Duffy on loan from Everton.

[Barney McGrew]

According to the herald we are after Shane Duffy on loan from Everton.

A right sided centre half. Hopefully to be paired with Hanlon.

[Ronniekirk]

That's three players now who were not good enough for us signed for teams in the division above us..
Getting rid of higher earners deemed surplus to requirements was always going to happen to free up players budget for Stubbs It's what he then does with that money and quality of player he brings in that is now crucial to how we go forward .

[Ronniekirk]

No idea how you can say that SH, we have a very poor bunch of players at the club at the moment, and we have no idea who we will sign.
Well we will have out chance early doors in the cup game to see how we do They may well have a dodgy defence but they won't be finished doing business in Transfer Market so I wouldn't be writing them off and like you say we at this stage have no real idea who we will be signing or how difficult it will be to attract players to club .Boyd and Miller I will cause us problems ,proven goalscorer s .

[Ronniekirk]

How many coaches do they have now?
That's a good move by them I think ,as jack Ross was rated by St Mirren who would of kept him in a coaching role .Not sure how many coaches they have Billy but they will invest in brining through youngsters over the next few years as the way forward and getting the right people in key jobs is crucial as you know from watching our young teams a lot so if we are losing Boozy to Dumbarton I assume you would see that as big loss for us .

[EvertonFC]

According to the herald we are after Shane Duffy on loan from Everton.

I wouldn't think there's any way Everton will be loaning Shane Duffy to Hibs. He's expected to be in and around the first team this year, especially with Europe to contend with. The only other centre halves at the club are Jagielka, Stones and Distin. Alcaraz is never fit, and was a shambles every time he played. Duffy had a run in the 1st team two years ago and was excellent, but Moyes never gave the kids a chance, regardless of how good they may be. He's too good to go on loan again. If you were to loan anyone from Everton, I'd expect it to be someone like John Lundstram, Conor McAleney, Matthew Kennedy, Hallam Hope, Tyias Browning, Chris Long or Conor Grant. All highly rated youngsters, but in desperate need of first team football.

Good info but if you think he is fourth in line for a place after Jagielka Stones and Distin is there a loan agreemant where the player could be recalled if a injury to the first 3 CHs ?

[yekimevol]

A right sided centre half. Hopefully to be paired with Hanlon.

Would have preferred that foster got a decent chance to cement himself that position.

[number9dream]

Would have preferred that foster got a decent chance to cement himself that position.

Agree. I'd rather we went after a right-back but we probably need players in just about every position...

Very surprised to see K MacLean staying at St Mirren...

[EvertonFC]

I just don't think 3 centrehalves is enough for Everton this year, they will need all 4. Especially considering how inexperienced, albeit talented, John Stones is and how old Distin is. He can't go on forever. Shane Duffy is a very good centre half, lacks a bit of pace but is an excellent defender, and most of us have been baffled by him being sent on loan by Moyes year after year. The past season Martinez brought in his own guy in Alcaraz and thought he'd be ok to let Duffy go on loan again, but he's expecting him to play this year.

From the players I've listed above, Browning is a centrehalf, very inexperienced but Martinez loves him and is desperate for him to get out on loan somewhere. Lundstram (CM) and McAleney (FW) are probably closest to getting first team action on a regular basis, but could probably do with a year on loan. Although, and no offence here, it would probably be at a higher level than the Scottish 1st Division. Matthew Kennedy is a Scottish winger who's pretty exciting but seems a way off the 1st team so might be an option. Connor Grant is a classy centre midfielder, but is way down the pecking order, and the younger Ryan Ledson who's 'the next big thing' has overtaken him. Chris Long and Hallam Hope are both prolific strikers at youth and reserve levels who need to go out on loan, Hope especially who some think has stalled a little.

[Ronniekirk]

Was Jack Ross not at Dumbarton?
Yes but was previously with st mirren and was involved in youth set up there as playing career was coming to an end

Thanks for the info. Much appreciated.

I as a part-time toffee also think Duffy will be involved for Everton this season. I actually don't think he needs this loan move. We certainly do though!

Hopefully some link between the clubs can be formed and who knows if our young players start to develop they may get a move to Goodison in the future! I think Stanton and the Harris of the season before last could make it big.

I actually thought they would do the old burry the bad news with some good news re season ticket prices and maybe from there perspective the poor reaction to the new kit by announcing some new signings. I am led to believe there are 2 deals just being pushed over the line at the moment but it's anyone's guess when they will be confirmed.

I'm sure if we sign someone we will reveal it straight away rather than wait until next scheduled press conference... Hibs must know how pissed off fans are getting, surely when they have some positive news they will share it immediately

IMO we need a minimum of 8 new players if we want to be competing for promotion

Stubbs said yesterday he was away back to east mains to reduce the short list of goalies from about 14 to 4 or 5 so I'd say any signings of a goalie is at least a week off.

Danny Galbraith has left Limerick after failing to agree terms on a new contract with the club.

The 23-year-old midfielder, whose contract expired on June 30, will return to Scotland in order to pursue opportunities in the Scottish Premiership.

A former Hibernian winger, Galbraith joined the Shannonsiders in 2013, making 27 league appearances in his first season. However, injury has disrupted his season and he has featured just eight times in the current season, scoring twice.

In a statement released by the club, Limerick thanked Galbraith for his services and wished him "all the best" in his future endeavours.

Properly backed. The Sheep rightly saw no Rangers and a weakened Hearts as an opportunity and offered the right deals eg permanent deal for Rooney when we offered a loan. The difference in mindset in the Boardroom has a lot to go with the gap between us.

Properly backed. The Sheep rightly saw no Rangers and a weakened Hearts as an opportunity and offered the right deals eg permanent deal for Rooney when we offered a loan. The difference in mindset in the Boardroom has a lot to go with the gap between us.

If that's all that Aberdeen has done then it is not sustainable.

[Del Boy]

Hull set to bid £3m for Robertson at united.

[easty]

If that's all that Aberdeen has done then it is not sustainable.

Not at all. It might be fun for them now, but they'll not make the money back.

[J-C]

If that's all that Aberdeen has done then it is not sustainable.

They got a reasonably successful manager with loads of ambition and backed him with transfers when he asked for them, they then go on to do well in a league without Rangers, this season there's no Rangers/Hibs and Hearts, wonder how well they'll do now, also seeing Dundee U are selling all their youngsters.

[IWasThere2016]

If that's all that Aberdeen has done then it is not sustainable.

It's not though .. more bums on seats, STs, revenue from cup win/semi, league standing ..

What is it about our Board/owners' mindset for the last few years makes Hibs sustainable?

Two .. and for £3m a pop! They have had one season each in the SPL as well.. We sold more experienced for less.

Deal done.

Deal done.

Official on BBC web Site

[MontrealHibs]

Stephen Crainey..... Ex Celtic, Leeds, Blackpool and Wigan... (Rumour, started by me now)

[Nutmegged]

I think Crainey might end up at Aberdeen, they're crying out for a left back and if the long term plan is to get Shinnie then I think he'd be a great stop gap

[NorthNorfolkHFC]

Aberdeen are going to have a pretty formidable team this year.

I know Badc@@k hasn't played much but he's a talent. If they get him and Rooney playing they'll score a few between them. Then you've got to factor in McGinn.


"That was classic intercourse!"

[Yuillsy]

Reckon we'll sign someone tomorrow. If not, 100% this week. Look forward to it.

I don't think Aberdeen have done anything different than they have been trying for the last twenty years, only that McInnes has spent his budget better than his predecessors. He has done well.

Is the Robertson deal done?

[GoldenEagle]

£11m for Ross McCormack from Fulham :confused:

[PeterboroHibee]

£11m for Ross McCormack from Fulham :confused:

He was Leeds captain, finished Championship top scorer last season despite being in a fairly average Leeds side (they finished 15th), and is likely in the prime of his career. If he scores the goals to get Fulham back up then Id say thats £11m well spent!

To me, what that says is it doesn't matter if you have a Ross McCormack in your side, you could still finish 15th.

£11m is ridiculous for RMcC. I hope Fulham do ****.

Any guesses on the incoming players?

[Speedway]

3 players pending international clearance is what I'm told to believe.

Many teams announce a signing when pen is put to paper.

At Hibs, a signing is announced sometimes once international clearance is obtained, some times to tie in with something else, sometimes to fill an otherwise slow news week in the summer etc etc.

The only time Hibs announce a player to have signed PRIOR to international clearance is when the player's former club announces it first.

Nope haven't a clue as agents are giving nothing away. Not sure if Stubbs is telling them to stop leaks and stuff. But all they said was 4 deals are done and one of them said the 2 who he knows personally are very good additions.

Depends, instead of having one or two named last week then one or two more this week they want the lot in a winner. Some fans prefer that. I like yourself have been worried but been reassured we have some good players on radar and also like I say a couple are meant to be good players.

Thanks could be we are holding back so that announcement of several players gets a lot of publicity and and they look to push sale of season tickets on back of it .Noticed when we visit queen of South we will only be charged 16 quid ,so if we can shift more Seasons we should still be able to bring in Quality we need to make us title challengers is what I am hoping .

Hope i have the wrong David Gray but he only made 4 appearances for Stevenage last season.
.......and 14 for Burton Albion

[AlbertK86]

Was he a jambo? Not that bit bothers me.

If you are asking about Sun journalist it's Kenny millar and he is a big Hibby

If you're asking about David Gray then no idea

[Cod Boy]

Good singer

[hibseleven]

We deffo talked to David when TB was manager. Source - his sister.

The family used to be Jambos but don't really bother too much now.

Again according to his sis he's very keen to come back closer to home and very keen to sign for Hibs.

[HibbyAndy]

David Gray how many games has he played in the last 3 or 4 seasons ?

[Bronson]

David Gray how many games has he played in the last 3 or 4 seasons ?

That the English fourth division and not a first choice starter and he is now 26. I for one am not enthused

Its prob the same level as the Scottish Championship

Gonnay let him play first before downing him ? After all, it is the Scottish Championship he will be competing in, no the Champions League. R/B has for a number of years been a problem position for us, so , to have , anyone who plays that position is a bonus. Gees, some folk.

Anybody pulls on the green (and sometimes white) shirt will get my full backing. I know we've been linked with this lad in the past, I've only ever saw a handful of games he's played in on Sky (is it the same lad who played for Preston?), and he looked pretty good, likes to overlap with the wingers and hit the by-line from what I remember. Don't know a huge amount of what he's capable of though, but excited to see who else we bring in now. Welcome to Hibs David, here's to a long and fruitful relationship :aok:

So i post an opinion about a player who last season was playing in the fourth tier of English football stating I am not enthused - i hasten to add this was before he was officially signed . And your ****ing response is i am a Yam ....

Did you see much of the english 4th tier last season?

Facepalm. Why is there always some nuggets on here who slag and put down a signing before they even kick a ball for us. No wonder we have trouble attracting players here when our fans don't even give them a chance. We are in the championship not the champions league. Jeezo

[steviehibsleith]

You have shown your intellect if you believe a football forum holds sway with attracting a football player to a club.

Did you see much of Burton last season?

What about Robertson at United last season? Bet United are glad they didn't have that mindset, they have missed out on a player who is now a Scotland Cap!!

Anyway - welcome to the better half of Edinburgh David :greengrin

Nope did you , average attendence last season 2500 with a wage turnover of 1.1 million.
Hibs wage turnover last season was 4.4 million and as a fan we have been asked to pay the same prices this season sorry if i was expecting more from our first signing.
You are comparing a teenager who was signed by Dundee Utd and is on a upward spiral to a 26 yo whos has been dropping down the leagues .


So on a football forum where you give a opinion you get a infantile response , as it happens i already live in Leith.

[AngusHibby]

A right back being played at right back is an improvement already, been a problem position for ages. If one good thing comes from the Butcher reign, I think it will be Steve Marsella unearthing a few gems. Hopefully I'm right

You're the one being infantile.

Not even seen the guy play, give it a rest ffs

I want Hibs to have the best players. We have a 'beer income' and can't expect to have a champagne expenditure. If only we had a mega wealthy owner who wants to give the club say million of pounds to get the best players.

Loose change to Sir Tom.

Anyone think we could see another signing or two being unveiled today?

[Dobosz83]

Anyone think we could see another signing or two being unveiled today?

Sure hope so. I thought there would've been some sort of mass/bulk announcement. A few good posters have reason to believe we have signed 3 maybe 4 players. That confused me a bit when Gray was announced alone. Still, I trust those guys and I trust the club.

Feeling more positive at the moment!

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

Buxton getting kept on I believe.

[Gmack7]

I think we're good enough already,it was only a RB we needed, IMHO our squad is now complete

Yep we're that good we dont even need a goalie and another striker.
