States on the Cardiff messageboard that he was released by City and is now traning with Hibs. This young lad looks decent, I've seen him play for the development side a few times and he also played for us in the FA cup as well.

We got him from Man City so defintley has some pedigree about him but not quite good enough for us though as we're looking to get back into the prem.

Hope he will sign, we need another RB after Grey.

Am i right in saying he's also a decent right sided midfield player?

If true, this is the lad who was with Stubbs last night.

Was having a refreshing pint in The Gosford Bar, and the two of them walked by - then drove off in a rather splendid Merc.

Was too slow off the mark for a pic, but did manage to say "Hi Al", and "Gaun the Cabbage" to which they both replied "Cheers".:flag:

Gray signed but Coulson still on trial. Will be interesting to get a look at him on Sat.

Agree. Not seen him play for a while but from what I've seen has potential and should be half decent at Scottish chapionship level.

Says on Cardiff wiki page he's a left back so maybe he's a Lewis Stevenson style right back! (Can't work out links or smilies on this phone thingy I've borrowed)

Right back mate. Perhaps has played on the left as cover but in 99% sure he's a right back.

We should be signing players who would be good at premiership level. If we start signing players who are half decent at championship level then we will become a half decent championship team. Not where we want to be.

It's just a turn of phrase, just saying he should be good.

I don't envisage the manager signing anyone that he doesn't think will help get us promoted.

This is one of the reasons I'm not panicking about signings (yet!) I'd rather we get the right players in who can do a job for us both in getting promoted and in keeping us in the SPFL season after. I don't want us to be doing a Dundee and dumping all the guys who got us promoted and signing half a team after we go up. There's not a huge gap between Championship and SPFL do whoever we sign has to be good enough for both divisions. Plus a good cup run wouldn't hurt this year to show we've turned a corner though the league has to be a priority.

Great stuff. Sounds a prospect if he signs up.



OP ................ Not sure if a Man City connection is evidence of any pedigree ( e.g Ryan McGivern) :devil:

Guys we need to chill out with the bitchy comments against other posters. BMD has had it tight recently and end of the day he's only posting rumours like what I myself and many others post.

I don't care about twitter or Facebook let's try getting along when it comes to sharing the info as it just leads to more infighting.

Group hug ;D

Another center back and we have good cover all over the back four. Which can only be a good thing the amount of times a defender has been injured for hibs is unreal recently

GGTTHI'm not convinced we do though? Who have you got at LB, Lewis Stevenson and Booth? If Stubbs thinks that good cover at LB then fair enough and we could do with another CH. Just my opinion.

That's the best thing about having back up players whoever starts knows they need to play well every week because there is someone right behind them ready to take their place.

I always thought this was the basic practice at most clubs :eyeroll:

Maybe McGivern wouldn't have became so complacent if he had someone like booth challenging him every day at training. This is the way it should be.
