The Completely and Utterly Irrelevantly Nonsensical Transfer Deadline Day Thread...

[Pedantic_Hibee]

Awright sh@*gers,

It's here, it's back, it's exclusive. It's pish.

On the off-chance it'll be a late lie-in for all residents at Pedantic Towers, I've decided to steal a march on my pillow and create the thread now.

Tomorrow is a day where everything and nothing could happen.

Will Hibs sign anyone?
Will the admins continue to be pricks?
Will I receive my yearly infraction for losing it and offering a fellow member a square go?
Will nonshinyfinish make a prolonged appearance?
Will this year's deadline day food bill top January's?
Will HibsTransferNews stupidly pay attention to this thread and tweet that he is hearing me opening my eighth packet of crisps before 10am?
Will someone be able to tell me how to post pictures on here from an iPhone/iPad?

So many questions, many which will remain unanswered mainly because they mean hee haw.

Tomorrow's food budget is quite healthy in monetary terms. Tomorrow's food...not so much. Currently formulating a shortlist of crisps for the proceedings. Yoghurts scheduled to feature as are baps, bacon and Lucozade.

So, over to you lot. What are you bringing to the Deadline Day table?

[monktonharp]

if Hibernian do not sell any of our star players, I will be so happy that I will wallow naked, in a bath of Branson baked beans, as my wife has just got our monthly supply from Cosco. this event will be private, as it will be in my ain bath! with a glass of chardonnay within reach I might add.

One slightly damaged electronic advertising board, has some footprints all over it, some blood stains (religion of owner, not specified) and corner flag impaled in one end. Has "Congratulations Rangers, Scottish Cup Winner 2016" hard wired into its circuitry. May need some repair.........

[SteveHFC]

Came in here to see a signing at least and nope.

I think it will start quiet, then some rumours around lunchtime then a Hibby style pessimism that only Hibbies can have and then a signing around tee time and a flurry and then the signing of all signings for this window (not Griffiths).

Im working from home today & have newly connected Sky Sports News ready in the background....Thats good..

Ive started my Juice Plus plan today though so may feel a bit guilty at working my way through the cheese and onion Tayto...Not so good..

I fancy Hibs to come out with a curve ball.....Too many signings this year have been talked about by the manager prior to coming aboard....I think he's just been doing that as a distraction...Something bigs gonna happen :wink:

Back from holiday yesterday so a couple of days off still, planning on setting up basecamp on the sofa today to watch deadline day.

Not sure if this has been done before but just noticed they are using Football Manager stats to compare players!! Really hoping Hibs push through that Cherno Samba deal.

Morning.

Busy at work but should have time for some spirited nonsense this evening.

Looking at the work canteen menu, it's likely to be a chicken kiev for lunch (I once had one in Kiev itself, so I consider myself a bit of an authority). They often have homemade battenburg on Wednesdays, which is the cake equivalent of an eleventh-hour swoop for Hendo.

Have you ever even been to Battenburg? If not, then how will you be able to tell if it's cake is any good, let alone the cake equivalent of an eleventh-hour swoop for Hendo?

What if your analogy leads to a disappointing second spell for Hendo?

Maybe we should just call the whole deal off, that's if it's even on in the first place!

In anticipation of this asinine question I used the less common but entirely valid spelling of the cake, battenburg. As any fule kno, the names of both eponymous towns in the Rhineland are spelled Battenberg. You walked right into that one.

Not got the butterflies this year.

Today's itinerary is:

Off into town with my daughter Erin (23) to shop
Lunch*
Golf at 3.22pm
Dinner in clubhouse (Pie, Chips and Beans is my standard order)
Meeting re budget for golf club Prizegiving night (last Friday in October - big man has two trophies to collect :greengrin)

Should be home about 8.30 and may put SKYSports on, may not.. :cb


*Seeking advice on lunch - SpudULike or SubWay??

[lyonhibs]

Breakfast was a rather tame affair of 2 croissants bought at the station owing to the wife's forgetfulness on the shopping front meaning the usual boiled egg and soldiers was off the menu.

Lunch to be green beans and some rather lovely poached chicken, a concept I was initially suspicious of being from the "roast or GTF" camp vis-a-vis whole chickens, but I'd wholly recommend getting your other half to do it.

Dinner TBC. Almost certainly of the pizza or similar variety, which should provide ample opportunity to "accidentally" divert via the crisps and salted snacks aisle (pitiful as the choice is over here in "Paprika or Plain" land).

I'll be expecting no signings, or 4 signings. Not decided yet.

Jim White had better have a yellow tie on though, or I won't be held accountable for my actions.

[Albanian Hibs]

Grabbed myself a bag of Daims from Ikea yesterday and getting ready to settle down on the couch with them while my youngest trails playdoh all over the carpet 😣

[Hibs90]

Currently tucking into the remains of last nights Two for Tuesday spectacular from Dominos, about to be followed a smashing glass of Irn Bru. Healthy foods are not an option on Transfer Deadline Day. Neither are Healthy signings, I only want to see Henderson delivered today.

He was terrific on PES too.

Still fuming at your vastly superior breakfast. The biftas went years ago, nothing adequately replaces them when contemplating the recent demolition of a full Scottish. Harrumph.

[Green Man]

I've had a reasonably healthy start to the day, berry granola and black coffee for breakfast followed by the half banana that my youngest son didn't eat. Lunch is honey smoked salmon on a brown rice, kale and quinoa salad (seriously) with a peanut sauce. I've got a pepperoni pizza for tea though and snacks are bound to come into play later on, so the healthy eating will go out the window once we're into PM.

[nonshinyfinish]

Porridge, Banana and 2 tunnocks tea cakes for breakfast washed down with 3 coffees. Bagel for lunch. I dont think the 6 pack of tea cakes will last the whole day although if Henderson signs i will eat the remaining 4 in one go whilst lying back on my chair shouting 'he has been delivered'

[Hibrandenburg]

Sat looking across the Forth from my Burntisland holiday cottage with my binoculars trained on Easter Road. I'll let you guys know if I spot any private helicopters coming in or out. Still in my pyjamas and plan to stay that way all day, could make my trip to the off-licence later a bit dodgy though, they might mistake me for a local.

[Green Man]

That healthy nonsense just didn't cut it for lunch. Having a bowl of fruit n fibre to try and stave off the hunger but the sun's coming out so a cornetto could be on the cards.

[SteveHFC]

Just been uptown for a interview and was offered a trial for a few weeks to see how I get on. Happy days :hyper

Away to training later on this evening then heading to Morrisons to pick up a few treats for the remaining hours of deadline day.

In my own words....

Quinoa is a species of the goosefoot genus, a grain crop grown primarily for its edible seeds. It is a pseudocereal, similar in some respects to buckwheat, rather than a true cereal, as it is not a member of the true grass family.

Really good sprinkled on top of ice cream with some Ice Magic.

[heidtheba]

Well done Sir for starting this thread and for those contributing to it!
THIS is my favourite hibs.net thread, love it. Genuine laugh out loud moments.

Hoping Mrs Me brings back a Costa millionaires shortbread. I'm somewhat addicted.

Got some fizzy haribos and a multipack of bacon McCoys (she cheaped out on the proper packets...)

Multipack bags aren't only smaller are they? They tend to be lacking 'crispness'...which is boll&x for things called 'crisps'.

[Craig_HFC]

Breakfast was a link sausage & tattie scone roll with a wee bit of ketchup from my work's canteen.

Lunch was a Co-Op meal deal; egg & bacon sandwich, Co-Op Sea Salt & Chardonnay Wine Vinegar crisps washed down with a bottle of Irn-Bru. Treated myself to a Boost too.

Not sure what's for tea, will need wait until I'm home to find out.

Would love it if Henderson was delivered today but think we'll only see 1 signing which will be a right back.

Transfer Deadline Day should be a national holiday.

I'm sworn against multipack crisps. Who are they to tell me what I can and can't eat? They don't know me.

Over the years, I have honed my crisps procurement skills and now tend to settle for the 6/4 ratio. Basically, 6 packets of your cheaper, more obscure tastier 20/30p snacks such as Space Raiders, Bobby's etc whilst the four are your pricier, more exclusive sorts such as Roysters, Frazzles and suchlike.

The only multipack that shall ever cross my lips are Frisps. All three of the nation's staple flavours are a triumph. And even then I baulk at them decreeing I should have two of each. What if I wanted three of the ready salted and only one of the cheese and onion? Overbearing barstewards.

[Pedantic_Hibee]

Thinking of taking a little stroll through Tranent for a half hour or so. I need to find a reputable e-cig and stock up on scran.

A complete protein no less...I've used it as an alternative to rice & Couscous in the past..I'd recommend cooking it with a stock cube though. It was a staple grain of the poor in places like Peru & Bolivia although the increase in prices due to demand from the west has put this nutricious grain out of the reach of those who have lived on it for centuries..So I tend to use it only now & again rather than a constant addition to meals.

Indeed. Turns out the nutrient composition is favourable compared with most common cereals with acceptable levels of calcium, phosphorus and iron not forgetting amino acids such as lysine.

Lunch update: the chicken kiev was serviceable, but it came with salad. I made up the difference with curly fries.

Another handful of mint M&Ms. Considering booking a meeting room for the afternoon, closing the blinds and sticking the cup final on.

All this talk of tucker reminds me of a restaurant review in London. It came from a girl that had been taken up the Oxo Tower for the first time by her boyfriend. After some initial trepidation, it ended up an experience that she wanted to try again, it was that good.

I've never tried the Oxo Tower myself. Has anyone else been up there?

I haven't, but I recall having a conversation with a young lady who posted a similar experience at a place called "Bourneville Boulevard".

Is that where this tower is situated?

I've not tried the Oxo Tower either, I hear they do an excellent nutty brown log though.

No but I do enjoy a good crêpe

[Albanian Hibs]

Fried up last nights homemade pasta in some olive oil for lunch - pasta with tomato, brocolli, tatties, cooked with 2 stock cubes. Some oregano and garlic powder to flavour. Baked in oven with some nando's hot sauce on top.

Glass of Lilt to wash it down.
My 3 year old daughter had Asda brand beans and a slice of bread.

No, definitely not. I am aware of Xhamster, the difference between that and Facebook is that I don't know any of the c***s on Xhamster.

Google "Kris Akabusi's sex stories" and read some of the 'Busi blogs, as long as you are not easily offended.

It all started out on Facebook but appears to have migrated elsewhere.

The last time I was in London I tried to get in there but, the woman in charge of the door said my name wasn't on the list so I wasn't getting in. Went round to the front entrance was able to enter and leave again as often as I wanted! :-)

All joking apart the actual location is well worth a visit too.

Morning.

Busy at work but should have time for some spirited nonsense this evening.

Looking at the work canteen menu, it's likely to be a chicken kiev for lunch (I once had one in Kiev itself, so I consider myself a bit of an authority).

This is just a poultry point but, I believe the origins of Chicken Kiev can be traced backed to the hotel kitchens of mid 19th century Paris, anyway, not to worry, no harm no fowl.

Some quality snacking should restore the blood sugar levels and bring you round.

A colleague just returned from holiday in Devon. Having failed to bring back any treats, he sheepishly nipped out at lunchtime to buy some Cantebury fudge. From Tiger, the Scandinavian odds and ends shop.

Confused extraction aside, it hit the spot.

We've discussed going up the Oxo tower when in London, but has anyone intended to pack the fudge whilst on holiday but then failed to do so?

How about - you wake up in the Hibernian FC sex swing (which hangs from the helipad remember). In a "clinch" with Rod Petrie, he tells you that you've been drugged - the last thing that you remember is that you were offered a pill at HT during February's game at Tynecastle which offered you a chance to turn the game around.

What actually happened next during the game was that Craig Thomson gave Hearts a succession of ropey penalties - we lost our cool, got 4 men sent off and Hearts went on to win the game 9-0 before going on to lift the trophy against Sevco.

The Scottish Cup win you thought we had was nothing but a hallucination, a dream.

A complete protein no less...I've used it as an alternative to rice & Couscous in the past..I'd recommend cooking it with a stock cube though. It was a staple grain of the poor in places like Peru & Bolivia although the increase in prices due to demand from the west has put this nutricious grain out of the reach of those who have lived on it for centuries..So I tend to use it only now & again rather than a constant addition to meals.

Ah cous-cous So good they named it twice ;)

Go out for few hours work and now sitting on the rank in Castle St having a good old chuckle to myself, well done everyone so far . :)

I realise this will come as a shock to some, but most people in Vienna have never heard of a Viennese Whirl. I asked for one in a Cafe in Vienna... and ended up dancing with the Waitress.


With that in mind, I wouldn't be too surprised if they've never heard of Battenberg Cake in Battenberg.

Quantity over quality. It's the Mixu or Pat approach to TDD.

Since the Great British Bake Off is about to provide some ratings competition to SSN, it's an ideal time to say that my showstopper would be the Battenburg Gate: the Brandenburg Gate exquisitely rendered in battenburg.

Why would abroad necessarily automatically be a better choice than an EPL team for an English player?

Sam Stanton has been loaned to Dumbarton according to that Kenny Millar chap on twitter. Oops just noticed this is the wrong thread!

Chorizo sausages. If that's not a TDD treat then I don't know what is!

Not sure why Wilshire would go abroad when he has just learned English?

[HibbyAndy]

Ask me this on the serious transfer thread please.


I'l answer you honestly , I just cant'/Won't take this thread serious.

P.s if Matt Le tissier agrees with me your opinion is invalid

Maybe he want's you to learn how to spell 'Wilshere' Just a hunch ?

[northstandhibby]

Perfect mixer for the Vody

Never tried Vanilla Coke with vodka which is my tipple of choice for the weekend. Normally I have normal Coke. If i see it i'm going to try it.

Last week as a change from crisps as a snack which is normally wotsits, mixtured hulas or mcvities cheese cheddars I came across a big bag of monkey nuts in asda. Superb but shells can be a bit messy.

I'm completely imperturbable as to what happens herein with our TDD shenanigans - I've just scored some fine samosa's from my local Afghan bakery.

I'm, not convinced that the meat inside is indeed the advertised lamb, but I don't give a fig.

[Smartie]

A crowd of Jambos has gathered outside Tynecastle. No exciting transfers are expected but they're all hoping to lick the transfer window.

Decent signing for them.

They have been busy the last two days and will get better. Think they will still be a big threat

Blossom Hill White Zinfandel.

I have absolutely no idea what half of those foods are.

the other half is still banana

[Eyrie]

I've just spent the last ten minutes reading nonsense, snacks, crap, sexual references and even healthy food.

With the exception of the last item, I'm pleased to see that standards are being maintained :thumbsup:

PS: McCoys Cheese & Onion.

[jacomo]

Chicken pie and a heap of green veg, washed down with Pinot Grigio.

Nothing clever about it, but that always does deliverrr.

Would you like a tortilla chip with some sour cream?

Considering a couple of microwave burgers and a packet of crisps. My healthy diet has went right out the window. Only started it today as well.

[Pedantic_Hibee]

Wine demolished. Have we actually signed anyone today? I forgot it was deadline day amidst the food frenzy.

[jonty]

I'm with you.

Starbucks is an expensive habit and often disappointing, but occasionally really hits the spot.

Costa serves up rubbish in a horrible environment, but is everywhere - they are simply obsessed by size.

One is green, the other maroon.

Get yourself a starbucks card. once you're a gold member, simply order a single espresso. extra shots are free and they'll top it up with hot water to make a venti sized Americano. for £1.60 or use the plastic reusable cup, and get 25p off.
Or if its a quick splash n dash you're after, 1 tall filter in a reusable cup is 75p. Cant beat it.

9 pages on this, 6 on the proper one. Do you think Chelsea/Man U/Anyone in a cash rich league actually has a thread of this quality though?

I'd think not, no. And even if they did it would be uploads of meals in some top class restaurant in Kensington which is a poor show. Who wants that when I can bring Feasters Hot Dogs to the table.

sometimes. no sandals though. do you have ice-cream?

Quite possibly the post of the entire year.

Well, I attempted to play FIFA Ultimate Team and the servers are down, the missus is watching some garbage on telly so I've opted for the Sopranos and junk food. I feel like something is missing though, something like Kris Commons.

:not worth for sticking at it for so long.

I'm struggling to equate our current signing policy. In the bygone days, the fax would have had spare ribbons aplenty - today, it's all email and the like. Gob*****es.

POP - Opening second bottle of vino.
