Just a random on twitter but who doesn't love a random twitter rumour 😁😁😁

Hearing @Leighgriff09 to aberdeen on loan in a deal for mckenna or hibs in a deal for boyle personally id rather boyle

If Aberdeen are in for Griffiths, I expect Hibs to go out and do all they can to bring him to Hibs instead. An odd situation, as we already have two very competent strikers in Doidge and Nisbet. But the difference having Leigh back would be huge.

If he goes to Aberdeen then I'd say they would be in pole position to finish 3rd. Maybe a negative way of looking at it, but I'd much rather sign him to make sure they can't.

we are hibs

He was dropped for the last game. A super player in his time but his time is past.

Dropped for 1 game = woeful.

Was against it previously cause I didn't think it would happen. But if Aberdeen are looking to take Griff on loan we should be all over that as well.

Think he'd have his head screwed in here and would easily be our best striker.

Imagine Allan and Griffiths together!

Definitely, only Kris Boyd has scored more goals than him in the Scottish Premiership since 2004/05, Leigh with a better goal per minute average too.

Mcgeouch made two consecutive bad choices for his career.

His bank balance might be great but his career is going down the pan.

It was never going to work at Aberdeen, hes no chance of fitting into that style of play. Said it at the time it would never work out there.

He would be a good signing for us imo but I dont think we should give him any more chances of coming back to us.


Why wouldn’t you give him another chance if you think he would be a good signing?

Bottom line is, DM was a good player for us and we still need someone in midfield who can retain possession and recycle the ball. That ability to buy ourselves a few seconds is crucial to a Hibs team that can dominate games rather than one that can simply compete.

On the downside, his injury record is poor and Jack obviously isn’t too keen. Can any of our kids step up? I’d be happy to see Sean Mackie back in the fold.

Would absolutely hate it if it did happen. It’s realistic that they would be classed as huge favourites for 3rd place if they did get Griffiths imo.

Hopefully not and if Celtic were to be looking to move him on, then I hope it is here or down south rather than to a rival for 3rd place.

Griffiths on his bad days is always likely to pop up and score. Boyle on his bad days you get very little from him. Depends what Griffiths turns up at Hibs if he came though, although if he was potentially going to Aberdeen, I’d rather hibs took that risk than let him go there.

Yep. Scott Allan stating in this article that Celtic refused to let him join us in 18/19 season due to 'doing us too many favours'. McGinn situation definitely a factor imo. https://www.edinburghlive.co.uk/sport/football/scott-allan-celtic-hibs-lawell-18802412

I don't know if Leigh after turning 30 yesterday will fancy another money move down south or abroad, or whether he would be happy to stay settled in Scotland after his recent issues. Still has a contract until 2022 so would probably be a loan deal if he was to go elsewhere in Scotland.

It’s not a strange situation. 3 strikers for two berths is a healthy situation and provides proper cover for injuries. It’s a very realistic way of looking at this situation. Hibs should pull out all the stops to gain Leigh’s services and to stop Aberdeen booking 3rd place. I also believe Hibs is a better choice for his health and well being.

Was half joking and was based on the mccorie fiasco and it's been a bit quiet now so maybe hibs trying as hard to keep any rumours in-house.

But if griffiths to aberdeen is true then like some have said we should be all over this but would celtic deal with us? Surely if leigh had the option of hibs or Aberdeen then you would think he would pick us.

Livi target Stokes

Livingston want Anthony Stokes to replace Lyndon Dykes.

The Lions are in the market for a new striker after selling Dykes to Queen’s Park Rangers in a £2 million club record deal this week.

Livi have now made a move to land the former Republic of Ireland and Celtic star.

Nisbet's record in the lower league is second to none compared to Dykes. If he can match Dykes record of 14 goals in 36 games for us we should be looking at a 2m player also.

As for Doidge, he scored the same amount of goals as Morelos last season.

Forget about 4-5 years ago, he had a decent season and a half with the rest mostly injured, he left for more money, struggled in Div 1 in England and is a bench warmer at Aberdeen. His best days are behind him, instead of being in his prime he's farting about up north for a few extra quid. I've never known a more sorry looking support than ours always wanting to get back ex players instead of looking forward to new ones, tbh the majority of players we release very very seldom come back to bite us, some get a decent career but generally the ones we look after and sell for a profit go on to have good careers, e.g. Brown, Whittaker, Thomson, Fletcher, MJM etc, the ones we release float around the lower leagues doing not much.

My point was he was excellent with and without McGinn.

As for his best days behind him that's nonsense. He was absolutely superb only 2 years ago.

Yes he followed the money and i have zero problem with that. It didn't work out at Sunderland for whatever reason and he made a daft decision to sign for the sheep due to their style but he gets a run of games anywhere decent he'll be back to his usual excellent self.

Doidge scored the same amount of league goals as Morelos last season. If he gets anywhere near that again this season with international recognition he will be a wanted man. Unfortunately, he will be onto the final year of his deal next summer and we will be settling for a lot less than his value.

Nisbet is still adjusting to the step up so expecting him to score 20 in his first season is maybe expecting too much
If Doidge was to get an injury and it Boyle leaves our goal tally would reduce
Hammer hasn’t had any first team game time yet which is a mistake if we are seeing him as our third striker
The Manager s call of course and st present he isn’t as far as we know looking at a fourth striker coming in

the Griffiths conundrum. We've just invested heavily on Nisbet, a player we expect to make a decent return on if he progresses enough. Doidge we will also be expecting a return on.

Those teams easily have the money to be able to take a chance on Leigh in the short term and Celtic would be delighted just to cover his wages. Would he go, i'm not so sure. More importantly would he want to come home after a couple of days.

For those that watched the Aberdeen St Johnstone game last night, what was the thoughts on Ali McCann?

Would he be a good fit?

My understanding is that he previously was more box to box and would often break into the opposition penalty box and get some goals, however this season he’s been changed to more of a playmaker role and told not to go forward as much.

Think we need a mix of strong, athletic, good defensively and very comfortable on the ball. Hard to tick all of those boxes with our budget.

Newell has bits of it but i was expecting a bit more of him in that role, it’s the start of the season though and I think he’ll grow into it. Think he’s another that’s more suited to 3 in midfield though

He had very little influence on the game other than giving away possession several times. His impact on the game was minimal.

Would love to see Sparky back at ER, but Peter Lawell will ensure it does not happen.

If Hibs were willing to cover Leigh's Celtic wage Peter Lawell would personally drive him to Easter Road.

Predominantly a right back going by this https://www.instagram.com/tv/CBV8LjIgJ4P/?igshid=1wcc11myt9nz1

Seems to fit the same mould as McCrorie though going by age and positions he can play.

Reminds me a bit of Ryan Jack in how he moves, build and is on the ball.

Interesting, looks a decent right back. No doubt Aberdeen will be after him since they have no right backs...oh wait, they have about 3

I'm not so sure. Maybe looking at a long term option at right back/right wing back? McGinn has done very well so far, and I'm a big fan. But if he gets injured, we're relying upon Gray whose injury track record isn't great.

Whats the standard like in Kazakhstan? Can’t imagine it being great tbf and he seems to have played all his career there other than a very short stint in Russia where his team got relegated and he hardly featured.

Looks like he’s signing for a Turkish team though.

We’ve brought 3 in and paid for ONE player. Aberdeen will probably spend more on wages for the loans they’ve brought in across the year than we did for nisbet yet we’re attacked in the media for bringing players in whilst trying to agree wage cuts. The exact same thing Aberdeen have done yet there’s barely been a word spoken about their circumstances.

It's potentially a great signing for them. If the Anthony Stokes who turned up at Hampden on 21/05/16 plays for Livingston then they could have a 20 goal striker on their hands. Unfortunately there's often a lot of other things going on in his head.

Probably worth the gamble.

That's not biased, that's being hypocritical.

No comparison with Wright Rio and Lineker jumping about studios. Can't remember him being particularly biased at al always constructive imo. Seems very professional when he speaks about football surely you are not comparing him to clowns like Preston and English who genuinely are biased bizarrely one a Rangers fan the other a Liverpool and rugby fan.

Also a big chunk of wages given we now know they get full pay even if injured.
Worry for john s this one could be a career ending injury

At 33 doesn’t fit into our ethos of buying young talent and developing, but every team needs experience and this guy has been there and done it in spades. Over 150 USA caps, captained club & country.

FWIW I don’t think we’ve played particularly amazing in any of the games so far this season. But we’re second in the league 13/15 points and yet to concede from
open play which is beyond fantastic.

This is when the club have to be brave and back Jack Ross. We’re in need of a couple of additions and who knows where that may take us.

Its only 5 games in and we’ve still to play the better teams in the league, starting with Aberdeen next week. We won’t continue on as well as we have started but we could end up our highest place finish in years.

Hopefully the board don’t look at it as well the team are doing well as it is, no new players. More that we are building on a solid defence and a couple of shrewd additions will really separate us from the majority of the league.

Personally I think Aberdeen and their squad depth is quite a bit ahead of ours at the moment but we can really close the gap.
