Confirmed at the bottom of the Stokes announcement.

What a very strong window this has been, and we've got our main targets in nice and early.

Well done Hibs.

Would personally liked to have seen a LW brought in but overall I'm absolutely delighted with the business we have done during this transfer window.

Can't remember a better one than this!

I looked at my calendar for tomorrow and as long as there's a 5pm tomorrow there's always hope :hyper

I think we will see Shaw, F Murray Martin & Porteous all stay with the 1st team now if we are not signing anymore

This has been a very un-Hibs transfer window. Despite initial concern we've got all our targets in prior to the start of the season, and they've all been very good signings.

We should be top 4. Down to the manager and the players now.

Bearing in mind that if all goes well, Kris Commons will be coming in

Cracking window and all done before the season starts. No last minute panic buys.

Although they could be throwing us off the scent - Underscore told us earlier that there was another one to go.

Hopefully that means nobody leaving

:top marks Any Hibs fans sitting on the fence about buying a ST need to get moving now as we might not see a stronger Hibs core for many years to come. If you said to me 2 months ago that we'd have those 4 guys signed up on contracts ....

I'm happy with the squad although I was quite excited to see the striker/winger we were looking to bring in according to the 'ITK' posters.

Must've given Stokes a decent signing on fee.

We can only put 11 players on the park at any one time. What a choice we've got.

I can't complain with the business that we have done but I'm a wee bit surprised that we have no further plans to bring in anyone else.

I still think we're a wee bit light in the forward areas and maybe 1-2 players short of being capable of challenging Aberdeen and Sevco for 2nd or 3rd.

Time will tell though and hopefully that means the likes of Fraser Murray and Oli Shaw will get some real game time this season as I don't think we can really afford to let either of them go out on loan.

Think u need to appreciate the number of high earners we will have the likes of Whittaker, Ambrose, Slivka and Stokes won't have come cheap...this has been a pretty stunning summer so far....1 more at most I reckon and that's only if Graham departs

If I had been told at the end of last season that Hibs would sign Whittaker, Swanson, Murray, Stokes and re-sign Marciano and Ambrose as well as retaining the core of the team from last season, I would have called the messenger delusional.

All that and the prospect of Commons to come!

I suspect that some pruning of the squad will happen either by transfers (Graham) or loans (Shaw etc.)

All that the club are doing is managing expectations (in and out) and any opportune signings that are currently way over our budget may make clubs think about reducing price.

Also.. things change...

1. If Graham gets a good offer - I would expect us to replace with better. Even a loan striker.

2. Commons is 1-2 months away from fitness so I am certain we would have some flex if this looked a goer fitness wise.

Don't forget signing a 22 year old who already has 20 caps for his country on a permanent deal
