I have no memory of David Crawford whatsoever. Wish I could say the same about most of the rest.

Palsson was ok and went on to have a decent career.

Haven't ever looked forward to "Transfer Deadline Day" to be honest.

It's been turned into an absolute cringe-worthy circus by Sky Sports down in England. I hope it never ends up like that up here.

The yams appear to be going down this route now. Hope it ends the same way for them.

When you say "cringe-worthy circus" do you really mean "best thing on midweek TV all year" or do you really watch the One Show instead? :greengrin:

Where is Stokes?

With any luck, he's heading north on the M6.

Why do you ask?

I don't think it's fair to include Eoin Doyle with the first group. He earned his place alongside Claros and Griffiths.

Haha nah mate I'm really not into it, just find it a bit pointless to be honest. Sky Sports make way too much of a big deal out of it.


I don't watch the One Show but if I had a choice between the two... I'd turn the tele off :greengrin

Actually quite a depressing thread when in fact it's a great time to be a hibby.

When you compare the guys we were signing in those days with the quality we bring in now (while playing in a lower league), you really have to question what the hell was going on at Hibs pre-Dempster.

They were better than we had though. Job was to stay up and that happened.

I'd have kept Sodje, he scored goals in an awful team.

Blackburn willing to listen to offers for Stokes according to local rag

We signed him in January but he is missing from your list.

McPake has to make that list too, surely? Was one of the only players who gave his all :confused:

Sodje and Doyle were also decent signings.
