Winter 2019-20 transfer thread

[BILLYHIBS]

I think this is fairly expected now

I know just trying to get the thread on track 😁

[JohnM1875]

Is the 4 you eluded to in an earlier post McNulty, McGeady, McGinn and Docherty?? If so there’s too many Mc’s involved, not happy with that.

Totally. Where have the Mac's gone?

[Frankhfc]

McGinn imminent apparently

:aok:

Should fit in there nicely.

I like Jason Naismith though who had really begun to show up well and wish him all the very best in his recovery.

[B.H.F.C]

Midfielders that defend. It’s not that tricky. We’ve had almost nobody that will track runners this season which means CHs get pulled out to cover and leave gaps. Doesn’t matter how good the defence is they allways need midfielders to fight to get the ball back. That’s the myth. Not just putting a DM in front that doesn’t move.

You don’t lose the amount of goals we have this season without the defence being culpable. We need to improve that area of the pitch but that’s for the summer.

[Brightside]

We will get another CH and a LB in the summer. Hanlon has 2 years left imo.

[Callum_62]

So whats the point in a loan then if irrespective of how he does they need to buy him? If "obligation" to buy him then they are effectively buying him as soon as loan starts surely first refusal but not obliged?


Its a fairly common system now, im assuming its used to get around FPP, or to get a deal done quicker while they iron out other minor points

[Hibbyradge]

You don’t lose the amount of goals we have this season without the defence being culpable. We need to improve that area of the pitch but that’s for the summer.

I posted elsewhere that if you allow forwards 5 one on one opportunities against a defender, they'll likely win 2 or 3 and score once or twice.

If you allow them 10 opportunities, they'll score a lot more.

The defence needs protected. I do think, however, that Omeong's energy will help do that.

[Percy Vere]

Greg Docherty isn’t an upgrade on Omeonga, Allan or Hallberg plus Newell has been playing extremely well recently. Would be baffled if we loaned out one of our 2 current strikers just to get a rotation midfielder. If we were selling him I would understand as it would give us transfer money, but a loan seems mental.

Totally agree. Can’t see the point of a loan.
Plus if he goes we need two forwards in.... today!!!
Imagine scenario where for some unknown reason Hibs agree Kamberi loan and we end up with no forward signings.
Has to be a sale if anything and we need two.

[Real Emerald]

Totally agree that we need an additional striker. If Flo goes we need 2 in tomorrow in my opinion.

[The 90+2]

The summer signings don’t help right now. It’s looking like another poor year diluted because hearts are so *****. Motherwell are miles ahead of us, even Livi are, we’ve failed to address, so far, major weaknesses in the side. Having midfielders with good engines won’t help a fragile back four if the midfielders don’t know how to defend.

I do accept we need to do more in the middle of the park. I just think that, at times, it’s a convenient excuse for some under performing favourites in the back four. We’ve been unsettled which probably hasn’t helped us but too many players in that area of the pitch are in decline. As I say, I think it’s something that’ll be addressed more in the summer.

With McGinn coming in and Jackson being preferred to McGregor, I wonder if this could be the beginning of the end for him and Gray.

I'm sure it is. They'll slowly feature less and less. Paul and Lewis are here for a while yet, imo.

Do you ever stop?

[Hibeesmad]

Really don't know what to make of this Kamberi situation. I would imagine it would be a situation of Rangers paying a good loan fee and covering all of Docherty's wages?

If the club feel that the money could be used to bring in McNulty and one other, with the addition of Doherthy then I think it has a good chance of being done. Rangers will probably include some sort of option to buy too.

[The 90+2]

Do you ever stop?

Sorry. Things are great. All hail the transfer window.

You could address the point I was making and say it was rubbish or whatever. Transfer window closes today remember.

Beat St Mirren on Saturday and out league record since Hecky left is W7 D2 L4, 23 pts from 13 games. Over 38 games that's 67.2 pts. We got 67 pts in 2017/18.

[Kaff]

I'd rather we didn't have players who might have decent abilities, but decide that they were or weren't up for it as their mood takes them.

I'd rather a team full of Lewis Stevenson types who may not be the most skillful, but who are 100% committed every time they wear the jersey.

I know where you're coming from but you do need the odd maverick and although I think he's pretty consistent I'd include Martin Boyle as having the bit of stardust every team needs, 11 Lewis Stevenson would probably be a decent St Johnstone team but for the Hibs I want to see maybe 8 Lewis' Stevenson, a Martin Boyle, definitely a Scott Allan and better off with Rocky or Bogdan than a 5'5" keeper...
Tbh I've said before that with the core of the squad including Lewis, Hanlon, SDG, Daz and Whittaker I'm not so worried about its character at the moment, still needs a good manager of course.

[Ozyhibby]

Glad we haven’t got McGeady. I would like Docherty but not on a loan. Would prefer him on a permanent. Wanted him when he was at Hamilton.
Big day tomorrow for Hibs. Looking like another very poor window.

If Kamberi is asking for loan to Rangers then there isn’t really a way back for him with the fans. Hopefully that’s just nonsense though. If it isn’t rubbish though, I hope the club isn’t forced to take garbage deal to get an unhappy player off the books.

I think of most of the support weren't so distracted being ***ked off with Hecky, then him going behind the clubs back to moan about how his lack of game time was impacting his international ambitions would have been the end of him with the fans. It certainly was with me.

Get rid. But, not on a loan to warm the bench with The Rangers and become even more damaged goods

I really hope you’re right as all us Hibs fans want the very best for our club. It’s been a disappointing window and we really need something to get us enthusiastic again, if that’s the right term to use. There’s a lot of understandably nervous fans who are getting a kicking for voicing their concerns. Hopefully we’ll all be happy come midnight.

Thought the post you replied to was from 90+2 at first. Stephen and Paul a good start to the window.

[The Baldmans Comb]

Kamberi to Sevco on loan sounds a huge win win situation for Sevco with their massive up and coming game schedule.

The "option to buy" is a wee sop to keep the dafties happy as he will be duly punted back and replaced in the summer as Sevco can get better.

Nobody at Hibs (except maybe someone) benefits as Kamberis career at Hibs is effectively ended as he won't win back the few remaining supporters he has.

[Hibs90]

We will miss Kamberi more than people think. You'll see.
Barker? No thanks. Docherty? Only if permanent. Otherwise they can bolt. I also don't believe a word that comes from the Daily Ranger. The Rangers media team getting to work there.

Unless we pull in 2 strikers this Kamberi deal isn’t Happening.

Absolutely this

[allmodcons]

I sincerely hope it doesn't happen. I might be in the minority but I'd be somewhat pissed off if we lost Kamberi on loan to them.

It suits them (not us) and would signal the end of his Hibs career with us (probably) getting little return on our investment.

You are 100% correct, it would be complete madness to lose Ollie Shaw and Flo Kamberi in one window without having able replacements lined up.

[BlackSheep]

You’ve got to believe at this point that the board/manager/recruitment team or whoever bloody sign players these days, have a few irons in the fire to even be contemplating letting Kamberi leave, whether on loan or on a permanent transfer.

[Steve88]

Absolutely this

Wouldn’t trust that rag - if they said water was wet I wouldn’t believe it

Spot on!!!!

I don’t even think there’s more to it than rangers making an enquiry.

A newspapers agenda is to SELL stories and that is what the DR is doing.

Over the next 24 hours this forum is going to become complete madness

[flash]

I hope he goes today if that's what he wants to do otherwise we will have an unhappy player. There's no doubting Flo's ability but he doesn't strike me as the type to knuckle down and get on with things when he feels he has been let down.
On a separate matter Mcgeady going to Charlton proves yet again that we really don't have a clue what's going on. Makes today a bit more interesting.

[Vault Boy]

Should be an exciting deadline day 🎉

[flash]

Oh aye and while I am at it the idea that this whole Kamberi to Rangers thing is designed to unsettle us because we play them soon is ludicrous to put it mildly.

I agree, I think he has been wanting out for quite a while now. Also get the feeling we will sign someone totally out of the blue today.

As frustrating as Kamberi can be at times I think he would certainly leave a noticeable hole in our team. Even if MM came in we still don’t have enough cover to let Kamberi go

However, hibs have certainly changed their approach in the transfer over the last few years... I’m expecting something completely out the blue from hibs today

[Jim44]

I’ve said all along that I want FK to stay. It looks certain he’ll be away today but if so I hope it’s to Poland and out of our hair. If he’s still with us when the window closes I think a bit of air clearing will be needed or we’ll have a sorely disaffected player on our hands. I think his attitude has been suspect for a while now but he could become unbearable if things don’t work out for him today.

[Since452]

We had Daz at his peak then and Gray was outstanding. Our defence is fragile and Hanlon and Jackson are poor with a St Mirren player about to come in as right back and Lewis having the poorest season in a hibs too since Calderwood was manager. We need a Bartley or a Milligan, the defence isn’t good enough to cope imo.

Can see your point to an extent. Agree the defence is a bit ropey but a clean sheet against Motherwell will help. I don't blame the defence for the United goals on Tuesday.

I think people see Marv through rose/green tinted glasses though. He was pretty ineffective against everyone other than Hearts or the OF. Milligan was the far better player and I was disappointed to see him go but by all accounts was on a very big wage.

Maybe going against the grain but I don't think a DM is as important as we think. We've beaten good teams and played really well in games without one. Games we've not won is usually down to terrible defending at corners and goalkeeping mistakes

[Captain Trips]

I think on FK things have to be also done that suit Hibs. I am really struggling to see the benefit of a loan to Rangers if it fails to work out and they do not want him and i do not believe Rangers would ever accept an agreement that states they have to buy him as that almost negates the point in a loan. They can have an agreed fee. If it fails we get him back and other clubs might therefore not be interested in buying him if failed to do much at Rangers.

[The Baldmans Comb]

Genuine question, why does he only have a few remaining supporters? Surely every Hibs fan gives every player their full support?

Genuine answer in that Kamberi doesn't have close to universal support amongst Hibs fans on or off the park.

Many believe he isn't actually all that good and point to his goal tally while others question his sulky attitude and that he only plays well when there is a move on the cards.

Forum comments or more accurately live match day comments indicate a player who many Hibs fans think should be doing much better.

I admire Kamberi and would "persevere" but accept we don't have a playing system that can accommodate or a manager who can recreate those first 6 months under Lennon.

That's no disrespect to Jack Ross who inherited this situation and needs to develop his own style of playing that gets results from a full squad of players and not just one cater for one individual.

[Captain Trips]

Sell FK not a loan, with a small part of that money use it and take a punt on the nisbet boy.

Don’t think Hibs like to get drawn into an auction for a player so if there’s interest elsewhere for him then I can’t see us trying.

I’d like to be wrong but I think we’ll probably just give him a miss and go for someone that’s maybe not getting the attention Nisbet is getting just now.

Not really the end of it though as even if we have told them to bolt, there’s other foreign clubs interested and Rangers could come back with a new offer.

There’s also the possibility Kamberi could throw his toys out the pram which would cause us a problem. Can see this one grumbling on all day.

[Beefster]

I doubt that would be the end of it. FWIW, I’m not averse to seeing Kamberi go if it’s for cash now. No loan and option. No Barker or some other waste of a wage for Rangers.

[JimBHibees]

Seen the DR linking Tony Watt with us he can **** off after his Hearts comments and slaughtering Hibs plus he’s bang average

That smacks of the Record trolling just putting a name out there to annoy Hibs fans. As a player has talent but has never really done it since his Barca goal.

[JimBHibees]

Flo to Sevco on loan means he is still our player and say he doesnt get game time or fails on the bigger stage then its us who end up ****ed.

Either Sell him or keep him, a loan is utter nonsense.

Agree only benefit I can see would be if we got a better player from them for us.

[Allant1981]

Right but he's still a Hibs player. Hibs supporters should be supporting him. End of.

Yes obviously you support the team on the park. Where else would you support them? Asda? The barbers? Their mother in law's?

When a player steps on the park in a Hibs strip he should be getting the full support of the Hibs supporters. That support definitely shouldn't waver because of daft rumours and the opinion that he only tries when scouts are watching.

I hope that's true. The Huns have spent millions they don't have in a desperate quest to stop Celtic, and then in January expect us to just loan them one of our players? Usual breathtaking arrogance. If they want Kamberi they can make the typically pathetic bid we normally receive from either of the Old Firm, and then we can laugh at it.

[Saint Hibee]

Going against the grain here, but I really don’t get all of these posters slating Kamberi for lack of effort or being disinterested. I just don’t see it. Sure, he has his off games and his form has dipped of late, but if anything that seems to be be from trying too hard rather than not hard enough, hoping every little flick will come off. I for one will be gutted if we let him go and can’t see us replacing him with anyone of near the same quality.

The Hibs class thing is a load of nonsense to be honest. Look at the way some of our support hound our own players. That’s miles from class.

And this tradition of great football - been a Hibee since the early 80’s and in reality most teams have been crap.

Imagine actively wanting shot of a player capable of what Kamberi is capable of?!? :confused:

Kamberi, Mcnulty and Doidge to choose from with Horgan, Boyle and Allan providing the chances and chipping in themselves?

Unfortunately think you are right about the Hibs Class thing - seems to have diluted out now ...

The style thing remains valid imo - not to say we haven’t had bad team - we’ve had plenty - but there is definitely an expectation and preference for playing a flowing, passing style of football ..rather than the long ball habits of the Duncan’s across the city ..our fans want football played the right way - doesn’t mean we always get it mind you :)

As Hibernian supporters we expect certain exceptional standards of play and ability

There is class there is first class and then there is HIBS class

We should never waiver from these standards

Yes we are all entitled to our opinions you pays your money and you takes your choice

Sometimes if it looks like a duck walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it is a duck

Some of us prefer to call things as we see it especially when it comes to what we perceive to be HIBS class

We are approaching the final few hours of Transfer Deadline Day let’s hope that Jack Ross can pull a rabbit out of the hat and give us some quality and some real hope for what remains of our season

GGTTH

A lot of that post shows a distinct hint of "stuck in a Turnbulls Tornadoes timewarp" mentality unfortunately.

[K-Zazu]

Mcginn and Mcnulty and that will be it I think

[Barman Stanton]

Unfortunately think you are right about the Hibs Class thing - seems to have diluted out now ...

The style thing remains valid imo - not to say we haven’t had bad team - we’ve had plenty - but there is definitely an expectation and preference for playing a flowing, passing style of football ..rather than the long ball habits of the Duncan’s across the city ..our fans want football played the right way - doesn’t mean we always get it mind you :)

No doubt we had some amazing teams in the 40s and 70s. I grew up thinking that was how we played as well as my old man told me the stories. In the last 40 years though we had have probably about 3 or 4 teams that played great football. We want it played the right way, but it’s few and far between unfortunately.

[SouthMoroccoStu]

Spot on!!!!

I don’t even think there’s more to it than rangers making an enquiry.

A newspapers agenda is to SELL stories and that is what the DR is doing.

About the size of it. I think it will be the summer window when Ross gets the exciting players in. McNulty though is a great start and a huge hibby to boot especially with the carrot of getting back in the Scotland squad

[Barman Stanton]

Ah well cannae really argue with any of that I suppose

I am well known on here for calling out what I perceive to be the crap players

Nothing wrong with hanging on to your beliefs though eh?

Here’s hoping for a couple of really good signings today

Indeed and when you grew up with the Tornados I can see why you have that outlook. I grew up with Benny Brazil and Alan Sneddon. Possibly why I don’t think it’s quite the disaster at the moment.

[EVENTUALLY]

Sell FK not a loan, with a small part of that money use it and take a punt on the nisbet boy.

That's the deal that should be done. May need to use most of the Flo fee to pass on to Dunfy, but it wouldn't be a punt. The boy is a player.

[Andy74]

Absolutely this

Yip!

That does sound like me

Writing it I did think too many Turnbullesque cliches

A brilliant Coach by the way

It was meant as more a rallying call and hope for the future

I also believe like every Hibby that any player wearing the green and white should always get our full support on the pitch but as others have pointed out in recent years standards have been diluted

[hfc rd]

So if reports are to be believed, the following is due to be happening today.

In - McGinn, McNulty & Docherty

Out - Kamberi

I’d gladly take that.

[Hibs4185]

Am I the only one that is disappointed with McNulty? Top player if he is scoring goals but if he isn’t then he doesn’t really contribute much. Considering the money he will no doubt cost us, I’d rather keep Flo and try and bring in Nisbet.

Unless Flo is a guaranteed sale in the summer for good money we shouldn’t be loaning him to Rangers. He will likely score a similar amount of goals to McNulty if played in the same position rather than out wide.

[Not In The Know]

My totally uninformed guess would be that we will end up with McNulty, Mcgedie, Docherty, McGinn and Omeonga with Kamberi going to the The Rangers.

id be happy with that. Wold love Docherty to be a permanent deal tho but doubt that would happen.

Joking apart Fyfe had committed the cardinal(small play on words there)sin of marrying a catholic.
His biggest sin in my opinion was thinking he was a footballer, how he and the other one made it in football was madness, neither were good enough for Hearts at the time, nevermind us.:boo hoo:

[BILLYHIBS]

Young dynamic loads of energy 22 goals already for a midtable Dunfermline side

I am not just saying this because I am a Hibby but I think we would be a good fit for him and for each other

The longer it drags on though I fear it is looking more and more unlikely

Never say never

[Alex Trager]

BBC reporting it.

The same page has a quote from the Scotsman saying we are after Australia striker Marc McNulty.
Haha

[blackpoolhibs]

And who protects a very suspect defence when not in possession? Certainly not the two wingers or a covering defensive minded midfielder. So much energy I would agree but no protection for a defence that completely needs protection.
Who protected the defence when McGinn McGeouch Fyvie were playing with Boyle wide on the right?

Please dont say Bartley.

[Frankhfc]

Linked with Docherty, McNulty and Nisbet in BBC Gossip.

Would be tremendous if we somehow managed to land all three as I reckon we need two forwards coming in to replace definitely Oli and likely Flo to work with big Doidge. They two would improve the forward options greatly. Think we've a better chance in landing the hard working McNulty but would love to sign both. Docherty is another who'd improve the midfield and would be better off at a club that will give him far more first team game time.

[Lee Marvin]

Anybody else think Slivka might go today?

Certainly hope so!!

[Cat Stanton]

On the bbc gossip page saying we offered 250k but dunfermline rejected it.

It's the bbc gossip page - but quoting the Daily Star ie it's probably totally made up slavering pish.

[BILLYHIBS]

Pretty sure I read somewhere that Dunfermline still due Raith Rovers some of the money for Nisbet so that might complicate things slightly

Not sure if there is a sell on clause

They might want us to pony up for that as well

Dunfermline have just signed a striker so looks as if they might be open to business

[Northernhibee]

Certainly hope so!!

Leaving us even lighter in midfield? Would rather keep him to end of season for the pittance we’d get for him.

[SMAXXA]

That smacks of the Record trolling just putting a name out there to annoy Hibs fans. As a player has talent but has never really done it since his Barca goal.

Which is pretty much all his career then Jim, don’t want him at Hibs

[sean04]

Certainly hope so!!

Think he’s defo away in the summer, may aswell get him off the wage bill. Hasn’t showed the promise I thought he had

[Hibbyradge]

Over the next 24 hours this forum is going to become complete madness

How would you describe the last 30 days? :wink: :greengrin

[Borderhibbie76]

So looks like McNulty is a loan...I'm hoping there is a clause with a view to a perm deal in summer. As it is we already have a massive rebuild on our hands in summer.
Would have preferred a perm deal tbh but beggars cant be choosers etc.
Hopefully at least 2 more IN today and at least 1 more striker if Flo is away

[sean04]

Fraser Murray move to Dundee stalled until hibs find another midfielder

I'm happy with a loan, not a great fan of him, if he earns a permanent deal in the next few months then fair play but I certainly wouldn't be pushing the boat out for him just now.

[we are hibs]

Genuine answer in that Kamberi doesn't have close to universal support amongst Hibs fans on or off the park.

Many believe he isn't actually all that good and point to his goal tally while others question his sulky attitude and that he only plays well when there is a move on the cards.

Forum comments or more accurately live match day comments indicate a player who many Hibs fans think should be doing much better.

I admire Kamberi and would "persevere" but accept we don't have a playing system that can accommodate or a manager who can recreate those first 6 months under Lennon.

That's no disrespect to Jack Ross who inherited this situation and needs to develop his own style of playing that gets results from a full squad of players and not just one cater for one individual.

What do you mean "on or off the park"? Whats he done off the park that warrants criticism?

[Hibeesmad]

Or maybe we are still working on getting Nesbitt from dunfermline In

Is he a midfielder or striker?

[Percy Vere]

So if reports are to be believed, the following is due to be happening today.

In - McGinn, McNulty & Docherty

I’d gladly take that.

So would I but still leaves us a striker short
Tony Watt on a free?

The Hibs class thing is a load of nonsense to be honest. Look at the way some of our support hound our own players. That’s miles from class.

And this tradition of great football - been a Hibee since the early 80’s and in reality most teams have been crap.

If Kamberi goes on loan to Rangers, how much of his wage would be covered by them? My understanding is that in most loan situations the receiving club makes a contribution to the players wages and the lending club pays the bulk of it. Also a loan is generally made by the lending club because they don’t want the player, rarely play him and can offset some of his wages or they want him to develop by getting more play time at another club. This doesn’t fit the bill really in Kamberi’s case. I think it’s an odd one. They get him for a relatively low financial outlay to cover for Defoe and probably lumber us with a disgruntled player in May.

If we are going to loan Flo to the Huns then we should be looking for a fee that way more than covers his wages. Way, way more.

Agree it a very odd one You could argue he is a proven scorer at League Level but not as Prolific as Defoe and not same link up play as Defoe
If there is anything in it Rangers would need to give us what we want but Gregg Docherty adamant he wants to go down south so unless we have another player in mind I think nothing will happen unless it was a silly cash offer that allowed us to bring in another striker The ball in in our court on this one

Unfortunately for that boy while he might be right that’s not really how it works in the food chain.

Dundee United are a bigger club so they’ll get more money for their best players in the same way that Celtic and Rangers will get more than us for the same player.

I’m not saying that’s right, it’s just the way it is.

Imo the best deal Dunfermline will get is a decent up front fee with a good sell on %, if he’s as good as they’re suggesting they’ll get their £1m for him eventually.

[Speedway]

What if it was Nisbett for cash plus Murray and Gullan on loan?

[sean04]

Does anybody have stats on Nesbit? How many pens has he scored this season? I think pens disguises a true goal tally

[sorryfolks]

Gullan has played for us and Raith this season so can’t play for another team.

[GordonHFC]

Don't think Gullan can go on loan to them as he has played for both Raith and ourselves already this season.

[KingPat4]

Again dont believe that one.

Fraser Murray is a midfielder.

Nisbett is banging them in and is the Pars talisman. With a genuine chance of making the play offs and potentially the premiership, why would they let him go on the last day of window and replace with a midfielder.

Aint happening

Dunfermline are a poor side with little chance of promotion.

They should cash in now.

[Jim44]

If Nisbet is as good as is being made out why havent The Rangers gone for him instead of Flo?

Because, despite the low regard that lots of Hibs supporters have recently developed for Kamberi, he is an experienced, strong and talented player, who in my opinion will probably flourish at Ibrox. If Rangers want a ‘loan’ deal with an option to buy, you can bet their offer will be low ( unless a minimum sum has been agreed). In the case of Nisbet, he is a cracking young player, but maybe still a wee bit of a gamble with the jump in playing level.

Think 5 of 22 have been penalties

Kamberi going to Rangers on loan is far, far more advantageous to Rangers than it is to us which is why they’re so keen.

We’re between a rock and a hard place here.

Do you expect Kamberi if he goes to be bought ? I don’t tbh...he’s too inconsistent

Not if the wage freed up allows JR to bring in someone he thinks will add more to the team.

[Gloucester Hibs]

Which leaves us in a bit of a predicament. The Huns wash their hands of him, we're left with a striker who's value has depreciated and who no longer wants to be here.

@spfl scouting


#Hibernian have rejected an approach from #RangersFC for a striker Florian #Kamberi. The proposal was a loan with an option to buy however the Edinburgh club do not believe #Rangers have the funds to buy the player in the summer and see no point in parting with the striker. https://t.co/Yaz6kFI5mU

[Hibeesmad]

Shrewsbury are also in for Docherty.

[number9dream]

My rangers supporting mate( I know) believes that it’s 100% of wages + a loan fee with an option to buy. He tends to get his info spot on with them

While we overlook your choice of company, that could be the only conceivable loan option Hibs would consider, surely? I still think we should tell Rangers to bolt unless they are paying a hugely overinflated fee or chucking in a player that would improve our starting XI (Stewart or Docherty).
I'd be amazed if he got much game time, so what happens when he comes back in the summer? Selling him on would seem the only way forward and his value is not going to increase sitting on the bench at Ibrox.
Are all of our eggs in the McNulty basket? I certainly wouldn't be letting Murray leave on loan unless we're getting in a major upgrade in that department.

All this last-minute wrangling and brinksmanship is a ludicrous way to do business but it does brighten up drab January with intrigue and excitement.

[bigwheel]

Swap for Vela?

[Speedway]

Interesting snippet here from Chris Wilder:

As for the window itself, a slightly weary looking Wilder said: "It still amazes me that the first three weeks are a non-event and then it evens up and deals start happening."

We're not the only ones to have to wait to do the right deals it seems.

[Deansy]

Because the 'Daily Record' would see no appeal in the headline !

[Jim44]

I think he chooses to be inconsistent with us. I don’t think he really wants to be at ER and is sort of working his ticket. I’m cynical enough to think he will hit the ground running at Rangers and the rest will be history. If I was JR, I would be trying to get his head sorted out or, failing that, offer to sell him to Lech Poznan. If he doesn’t want that, tough, earn another move by playing your guts out with us. I would avoid any sort of deal with Rangers, especially one that would be a win win situation for them.

[Hermit Crab]

Hearts sign that Langer boy

[sean04]

Just watch a video of Nesbits goals, a lot of good composed finishes

[Cod Boy]

Hearts sign that Langer boy

Good golfer will fit in there with his long game

[Unseen work]

The difference between McNulty this year from last, is now he would have Allan, Boyle and Newell able to play quality passes to him.

His movement with their creativity is very exciting and will get a lot of goals imo

Absolutely
Everyone talks about the bright start followed by the dip in form in the top 6 games
In all fairness, the whole team went downhill and it was the start of Heckys demise
But McNulty seems to get all the attention

If you look at his movement for the goal at st Johnstone. Class! I’m really optimistic that him and doidge will be good together

The boy's got a decent finish on him.

By the way, someone on twitter reckons we've been offered Cummings (again)

[Bobo]

Anyone think Tony Watt is the backup option if McGeady didn't sign?


McGeady is apparently away to Charlton.

Shrewsbury did sign a striker on loan from Fleetwood yesterday so maybe someone is moving on.

[Hermit Crab]

This McGeady joke is tiresome.

[Since452]

Had s wee look at Sunderland's forum. Most disappointed to lose McNulty but are saying he didn't look the same after his injury and has put on a lot of weight....

[Barman Stanton]

Wouldnt be surprised to see Rangers trying to hijack our McNulty bid if they cant get Kamberi.

[Speedway]

AC Milan sign some boy from Wigan :confused:

[sean04]

He does look heavy but I think that just the norm for him. Strong lad

[bingo70]

Think I read the guy is an American internationalist?

If so probably buying him to sell strips across there

[Since452]

What I like about McNulty is he wants to be here and is pushing for a move. I'd rather that than Kamberi who seems to be the exact opposite

[Ronniekirk]

And not been playing so isn’t going to hit the ground running by the sound of it
But let’s wait and see how he does

If that is the club’s opinion, it just thinks the same as a lot of us - they’re absolutely skint. There’s no benefit to us whatsoever unless they buy him now or take him on loan with a guarantee to buy in the summer.

[supermcginn]

Absolutely no chance. Kamberi deal seems to be off, rangers are trying to get vydra from burnley now.

[Tyler Durden]

Folk are getting a bit carried away regarding Nisbet. Dennis Wyness, Nicky Clark, Gavin Reilly.... all these guys had a prolific season at that level and then did nothing in the top league.

He’d be a punt and not one that we really need to take IMO. Would much rather get McNulty and Docherty in

[worcesterhibby]

If we turn down sponsorship money from Betting companies for "Moral reasons" then there is absolutely no excuse for dealing with either Cardiff or Rangers.

[Percy Vere]

Mentioned him earlier and I’ve been told by my fellow supporters that it’s not a good idea. Poor goal scoring record. But maybe he needs the right home, look at Scott Allan.

[Percy Vere]

This.

Like any player, if they don’t want to play for you, they are as well away.
McNulty seems to want to be here, Kamberi apparently not.
That said I like Flo. Despite lack of goals he does put himself about. when the mood takes him he’s a handful.
