Maybe try opening them in future. :greengrin

Funny :greengrin

Loved Mikey's post at the bottom of page 3 - http://www.hibs.net/showthread.php?319322-Efe-Ambrose&p=4960361&viewfull=1#post4960361

[Golden Bear]

The big guy has been outstanding for us. He was an entertainer as well as a very skillful player and will be a huge loss.

:not worth

[Centre Hawf]

I love you Efe. I’m hurt. But I understand.

[judas]

Take a bird in your hand. Release it. Then go to the bush.

[Kojock]

Efe was one of the most if not THE most naturally gifted and talented players at our club. Will be a massive loss to us. All the best big fella grab it with both hands.

[eastmainsmsh]

Celtic bound ?

[calumhibee1]

Celtic bound ?

Said that the other day. I wouldn’t be surprised, he’d start every week for them.

He has been brilliant mate gutted he’s going Rogers would be daft not to cash for Boyata Efe on a free

[CMurdoch]

Ambrose will be good for Hibs and
Hibs will be good for Ambrose.
Could well become a cult hero.
Strong and fast.
Hopefully scoring a few goals from corners.
Some exciting runs out of defence.
Hopefully not many gaffs.
Lennon knows him better than most.
Sounds a good and fun signing.
Looking forward to it.
I believe his Celtic contract is up in the summer so if he signs and does well there is a chance he could become a permanent signing although I suspect he would be looking for English Championship money.

As you can see from the above post from Feb 2017 some folk on hibs.net know what they are talking about.
Other posters not so much :wink:.

[Gloucester Hibs]

Interesting in 86 starts only 3 assists. Looks to be all superfluous with a lots of errors. Reduce wage bill and solidify defence. Not a bad trade.

B-b-but when he beats a man? That’s what fitba is aw about is it no?

FWIW I think he’ll be loss but not the catastrophe some would predict. Frees up a wage higher up the pitch hopefully.

Other posters not so much :wink:. Yes you were absolutely right! Of course being an outstanding centre back yourself that had pace along with a great first touch and drive it would have been obvious to you as a fellow professional the potential that Efe showed. :greengrin

[Connollys11]

All the best efe you were far too good for us mate.

[MWHIBBIES]

[marinello59]

Nobody is too good for us.

[Connollys11]

Defense defintely isn't better without Ambrose.

Imagine even suggesting such nonsense he's been our best player this season.

[The 90+2]

Defense defintely isn't better without Ambrose.

Ludicrous for various reasons.

[Connollys11]

Nobody is too good for us.

Well clearly mcgeouch, Mcginn and Ambrose are. Just like the golden generation were as Well.

None of them were too good for us. They all played for us for a decent length of time. You go ahead and belittle our club if you want, I won’t.

[Connollys11]

Grow up sir. Why did they not stay then? Belittle our club? No doubt you'll be calling me a jambo next for stating facts.

[The 90+2]

Sorry I meant to put “correct” before the rest mate 👍

I think the point may be, at the time of them leaving their ability was too good for a club of ours to keep a hold of based on financial packages we can afford to give players.

Thats exactly what a meant mate it's scary that it's even got to be explained haha

[Newcastlehibby]

That’s more or less what he said. The defence is not better without Ambrose which means it is better with him.

[Connollys11]

I never seen what the guy said a just seen someone saying our defence was better without Ambrose pal lol

Happy to swap different opinions with you. No need for you to be so patronising though is there?

[IWasThere2016]

Good luck to him.

Served us well with some outstanding performances.

I wasn't a fan before he joined us but am now.

[cleanyman]

It was fairly self explanatory

I only give out what I get back mate no hard feelings.

Sandwich sprayed over the screen. That is funny :top marks.
I wish other posters had decent patter.

[Hi Heid Yin]

What sort of statement is this by a so-called Hibby??

[Tornadoes70]

Grow up sir. Why did they not stay then? Belittle our club? No doubt you'll be calling me a jambo next for stating facts.

Jambos and Facts.

I wouldn't necessarily equate the two, in fact I'd doubt the veracity. Some say they have five fingers on each hand, I'd ask to count them first tbh.

:greengrin

[SideBurns]

???

I'm certain Connollys11 is a Hibby. Oh yes, for sure. But what I would say is that if a Jambo decided to post undercover on here, and based his Hibby persona on reading a chapter of an Irvine Welsh novel, then he'd probably come up with Connollys11, judging by his contributions over the last couple of days...

[Phil MaGlass]

Did Efe go for free?:confused:

[CRAZYHIBBY]

Great player but could have given us a bit of warning he was going to leave or at least let the club get some cash for him....theres quite a few big clubs after him

[Michael]

Did Efe go for free?:confused:

Yes, clause in his contract.

[green with envy]

Great signing in the grand scheme of things. We have 3 defenders out and we have signed a player who has had over 50 caps for Nigeria. Ok, he has had a few dodgy games but he is dropping down a level.


I remember reading your opening thread at the time and saying please make this happen.

Pleased to see that it did and that I had the pleasure of watching Efe on a regular basis strolling through games oozing class.
