Just started a thread same time. Saying the same thing.
That’s a joke if true. Plus Dunfermline will be getting their percentage.
Any hope we had of a Euro place (slim anyway) will be out the door along with Nisbet. Also speaks volumes about the clubs overall aspirations.
Unless he wants away and this is the beginning of getting interest in him.

As unimpressed as I've been with board decisions at Hibs over the last 13 months, they cannot be stupid enough to entertain a bid like that.

Would be a good move for Nisbet, (team chasing promotion to the EPL, living in London, great wage) but not until the summer, and not at that price.

[CB Hibs 68]

That is a joke fee if true.What is it with English clubs when buying Scottish players.A million down there doesn’t get you a school boy but up here it is all a Scottish internationalist who is scoring goals is worth.Hibs better not let him go this window or folk who think our season is over better think again as a relegation battle is looming.And by the way does anyone know how Rocky is doing?

[Billy Whizz]

Doidge (as long as LJ hasn't got him earmarked for centre-back after reading the thread on here).

Do we have an option to bring him back in this window?
The fact we allowed him to play in the Scottish cup, may suggest otherwise

Add ons are the money maker for a club like us selling Nisbet down south. There’s every chance we’ll get £3.2m for him, it just won’t be all up front and unconditional.

[Scotty Leither]

IF he goes this window, it kind of tells you Gordon is wanting out, for me, and if he does go then Gordon, and nobody else, needs to front up to the media and tell us what the **** is going on at our club.

Nae puff piece from Kensell on Hibs TV, an interview on national media from the organ grinder.

[Bronson]

I’d sell him this window but the price is £3-4m. He still has 18 months on his contract thats not insignificant so we’re not under any pressure to take the cash and run. £1m is an absolute insult.

We’d get through till end of the season with big myk, mckirdy and would give laidlaw and o’connor a chance. Season is pretty much a write off anyway.

Can't see it happening, £2.5M+ and I think we'd bite someone's hand off though.

[hibee-boys]

I think Hibs might do business at £2million plus, we simplify cannot afford to have another Porteous situation next season. Depends on whether we cash in now or not, his stock is high, he could pick up another injury or lose form between now and the summer.

I reckon we are skint, but selling for £1m would be crazy as it consigns us to a relegation battle.

Anything north of £2m and we will sell, with the DoF appointment following soon after in an attempt to deflect flak, with promises of “players to be brought in”, etc. with one week of the window to go.

Just what is going on at Hibernian Football Club?

I agree.

He’s not here long term anyway, we know we need a massive rebuild in the summer so if we can maximise the fee now, do it.

If it’s £1.5-£2m then keep him for now

[Broxburn Greens]

If it is a measly £1m then BK really needs to be telling his counterpart at Milwall that it’s not only a derisory offer but an absolute insult to the club and that no further communications will be had on the subject until an offer worthy of being called one is made.

It really is time Scottish clubs in general developed some collective bolx and told these English clubs to get lost.

We used to have this with the OF all the time until the other clubs especially Hibs, Hearts & Aberdeen rounded on them and told them to get stuffed.

[LaMotta]

We got 3 million for Doig, why do people not think we could get similar for Nisbet? The remaining time left on a players contract doesnt matter too much unless you are in the final year. A players ability doesnt change if he has 3 years left on a contract compared to 18 months left, still the same player for a paying club.

We'd be mad to sell him on the cheap.

[eastmainsmsh]

They bid 3 million for Lyndon Dykes so anything less is madness

[Dr_Regal]

2.5m plus sizeable sell on, and he'll be offski.

If that's true, his attitude since he returned from injury is even more amazing. Would have been very easy to not put yourself about as much coming back from serious injury but he has been the complete opposite and has been playing with a smile on his face. I think everyone is resigned to losing him in the summer but lets enjoy and support him while we have him.

[007]

Few issues with that. He’s a winger not a central striker. He won’t be leaving Hearts for us. His goal record is nowhere near good enough to replace what Nisbet brings.

The difficulty will be is finding another Nisbet type player from lower leagues. Or we give McKirdy a chance to shine.

It’s all monopoly money anyway and we’re not likely to see much benefit in real terms on the pitch if we get more money. Not like we will go out and spent the money received on a big transfer fee.

[WestStandMoaner]

To be honest I’m your camp over 30 years as a season ticket holder selling Nisbet in this window would probably push me over the edge. Sell yes at the end of the season. We won’t replace him with someone better in this window so another backward step by complete idiots who run and own our club .

[BoomtownHibees]

Currently 4 points off 4th. Also need to make sure nothing silly happens with the teams below us as well.

Why isn't there someone from the reserve team (or whatever it's called) who's been trained to play just like Nisbet ready to come in straight away?

The same for Porteous. And Boyle.

I really don't know what goes on at the training centre - how many coaches and trainers are there and what do they do? What is the point of it if it doesn't produce new players for the first team? Surely the fact that we keep making random signings and loans from previously unheard of places means it's failing? Throwing young players into the team isn't the answer but surely there is a plan for the players - surely it's not sign them at 16 - train them for 5 years then let them go to East Fife? What do Hibs get out of that - it seems that we have to go through a lot of churn just to get one first team player.

[Springbank]

No way we are getting £3.2 million. Nowhere near.

Millwall paid similar for a guy from the Netherlands in the summer & they'll sell the Dutch lad for £15m this week or in the summer.

IMO Nisbet is not going to Watford. What's will more likely happen is, if Hibs show weakness at say £1.5 - 2M, Celtic or Sevco will come in with a matching bid and Hibs will find it hard not to sell. The OF are vultures. They're not big enough to try agree a sensible price for any Hibs player as they know Hibs will deal tough and might make them look a bit silly when they walk away - just as they did with SJM all those years ago. OF are much more likely to get others to do the hard bit and then step in.

But I then had to watch Stein on his return to ER scoring for fun, as to a McBride clone the days of Hibs attracting those sort of players long gone I'm afraid.

[Is It On....]

I heard there is a large % sell on as well,
This surprises me as we paid a reported 350- 400k at the time

BBC saying £250k...and we signed him in 2021 🙄.

No Nisbet, no goalscorer 😬

[Lago]

Take it
Yip decent offer and can't deny the boy that kind of opportunity

[flash]

Take it

Nah hang on and see if anyone else bids.

[Tambo]

If this bid is accepted today or tomorrow then it could well be McKirdy leading the line Saturday vs Aberdeen.

Was actually hoping to see what Nisbet and Myko could of done together with Nisbet coming deep at times like he did with Doidge in the past.

[MelbourneHibees]

Hold out for 3.

Jamie Gullan played well against the Rose last night.

[WhileTheChief..]

With the atmosphere around the club just now I think it would be madness to sell him.

No way we bring anyone else in who will score the same number of goals between now and the end of the season.

Also no way LJ would be happy about it, so if it happens, where does that leave him?

I think, and hope, he's with us until the end of the season.

Agree with all of that. Absolutely should not be getting sold this window.

[McGruber]

Would hate to lose Nisbet and obviously 1 million was nonesense. Hope the club don't deal at 2.3 as sounds like loads of add ons. Everyone has a price though and if Millwall or any other come in at 3 I think we would have to go with it.

We would get 2 million in the summer so there is that to consider plus the likelihood of being dragged into a dogfight as we aren't well clear and have no other goalscorer

Since when could a club of our size stop a player leaving for a substantial pay raise and still keep him happy? He had his head turned before and the same would happen again and I wouldn't blame him frankly.

[Winston Ingram]

BBC now reporting new bid from Millwall is 2.3m.

They offered £3m for Lyndon Dykes last week so they've obviously got a bit of wriggle room to increase their offer.

I can't think of 2 more different types of striker.

[LaMotta]

Since when could a club of our size stop a player leaving for a substantial pay raise and still keep him happy? He had his head turned before and the same would happen again and I wouldn't blame him frankly.

Scott Brown 2006/07. He knew he would get his move sooner rather than later. Nisbet the same.

[Dalianwanda]

Apart from the money and perhaps living in London is there any attraction to signing for Millwall? surely if he went to the championship it would be to a team that has a chance of getting promoted.

[HoboHarry]

Scott Brown 2006/07. He knew he would get his move sooner rather than later. Nisbet the same.
Nisbet wants to go though, completely different.

[DIXIHIBS]

Hibs have to be careful with this one. Reject the offer to appease the fans and obviously keep our main goalscorer but end up with a totally unmotivated player. Sell him and dont get a decent replacement in time and the rest of the season looks even tougher.

[CropleyWasGod]

Apart from the money and perhaps living in London is there any attraction to signing for Millwall? surely if he went to the championship it would be to a team that has a chance of getting promoted.

They're 2 points off 3rd, with a game in hand.

[Chorley Hibee]

Apart from the money and perhaps living in London is there any attraction to signing for Millwall? surely if he went to the championship it would be to a team that has a chance of getting promoted.

If they win their game in hand then they go third in the Championship. They're very much in the frame to be promoted, and wouldn't be the first small side to get promotion either (Blackpool, Barnsley, Bradford and more have managed it before).

[Winston Ingram]

Scott Brown 2006/07. He knew he would get his move sooner rather than later. Nisbet the same.

Last time we turned down an offer for Nisbet he downed tools. Brown didn't.

[Is It On....]

Apart from the money and perhaps living in London is there any attraction to signing for Millwall? surely if he went to the championship it would be to a team that has a chance of getting promoted.

Apart from the money - he could get a basic pay increase to £10k per week - there is also the chance that next year he plays in the English Premier League with a worst case that he plays in the English Championship with Millwall. I would say that was quite compelling tbh.

[SickBoy32]

Nisbet wants to go though, completely different.

He told you that aye?

[Brooster]

Do Dumfermline have a sell on deal with any Nisbet transfer?
If so we'll need to cover that amount as well?

Dunfermline get 30%

[SickBoy32]

If the club sell Porto and Nisbet they deserve every bit of stick they will rightly receive

An abomination of a season if that transpires

[Is It On....]

Dunfermline get 30%

If only Mathie and his Recruitment Department hadn't got him signed, then we wouldn't have to pay Dunfermline anything. No wonder we got rid of Mathie !!

[LaMotta]

Nisbet wants to go though, completely different.

You think Scott Brown didnt want to go? He submitted a written transfer request ffs.


Last time we turned down an offer for Nisbet he downed tools. Brown didn't.

Dont agree. Nisbet went through a poorer run of form but the whole team was pathetic at that point. If he stays Its in his interest to play as well as possible to secure himself the best move in the summer.

[HoboHarry]

He told you that aye?
Behave yourself. If Hibs accept an offer he'll be off down the road and I wouldn't blame him one bit for that. Who doesn't want to earn more money?

[snedzuk]

I think we just might see supporters going through a medical as they enter the ground for the Aberdeen game.
Take your boots with you.

My Mrs has had both knees done - she'll need to be in defence.

[KeithTheHibby]

If, and it's a bit if, Porto and Nisbet leave in the window I really fear for us staying up.

Realistically the only players who have scored this season are Boyle,Nisbet and Kuka. 2 of them will be very unlikely to play at all this season and one may potentially leave.

Who is going to score our goals? No-one has stepped up nor looks likely.
Given the track record of our recruitment department does anyone have any faith that they can get the right kind of replacements in to avoid relegation? I for sure don't.

I guess losing Nisbet alone we could handle, not having the services of Boyle and Kuka make this a horrendous decision for the board.

[SickBoy32]

Behave yourself. If Hibs accept an offer he'll be off down the road and I wouldn't blame him one bit for that. Who doesn't want to earn more money?

Probably best not to imply that he wants to leave then - going by your logic every player wants to leave, because as you rightly say all pro players will go where the cash is

And I wouldn't blame the player if he goes, the club however wow - football suicide

Selling Nisbet for 1M with 18 months on his deal would be a horrendous decision PERIOD. Its a sheight offer and should be treated with utter derision. Can't believe so many on here are treating it seriously.

Been told its an absolute shambles behind the scenes with in house fighting, manager not interested in talking to players and youths all wanting away. Nisbet is def leaving this transfer window and its his decision. £1.4m removed from youth team to balance spending and owners wanting to get rid of manager but he's wanting full pay off upfront.

[GreenPJ]

Apart from the money and perhaps living in London is there any attraction to signing for Millwall? surely if he went to the championship it would be to a team that has a chance of getting promoted.

According to that so-called journalist McLauchlin it would be a life-changing move for Nisbet. Am not sure how many times he ever writes that for other transfers involving other clubs.

[bingo70]

Hibs have got many many faults just now however undervaluing players isn’t one of them. I’d we decide to sell Nisbet I suspect it will be for an amount of money that we just can’t say no to just now. With him being out of contract in 18 months and seeing what’s happening with Porto just now I back the club completely if we decide to sell him.

How well we replace him is another matter altogether though.

[basehibby]

The bid has been upped to 2m with addons. A total game changing bid for all.

Just caught up on that - at least its a serious offer this time rather than a piss take. I'd still reject it though. Let Nissy know we'll definitely listen to offers in the summer.

[Hibiza]

Sell him for the best price or he'll " down tools " like he did the last time. I would think . Only turns it on when a transfer window on offer.

It's an abomination of a season anyway and the pair of them were always going to leave.

You can replace manager and just keep paying him. Doesnt need to be upfront.

[silverhibee]

Hibs have to be careful with this one. Reject the offer to appease the fans and obviously keep our main goalscorer but end up with a totally unmotivated player. Sell him and dont get a decent replacement in time and the rest of the season looks even tougher.

Nah, he will still want to move in the summer so downing the tools would be a stupid move from him, tell him he can leave in the summer and I’m sure he will get on with the job in hand, scoring goals for Hibs.

[Springbank]

New offer over £2m I can see him going sadly

If we still had Leeann Dempster here, the whole ballpark would look different - even in light of the same bids.

So Millwall (not the only club in the world who might want KN) have bid £1.1m on 24 Jan, with a full week to bump the price skywards in a competition

On 25 Jan, Millwall have returned with a doubled-their-money offer of £2.3m, with still 6 days of the window to go

That, to most football administrators, is the perfect start to a bidding war that ends significantly above £2.7m upfront plus add-ons

Sadly, I have little faith in the present custodians, but hopefully they'll prove me wrong here (I'd love to be wrong in this case)

[JimBHibees]

No reason to doubt your info but does this not fly a bit in the face of what we've believed to be true for a while?

By that I mean that this is Steve Kean's department and the general perception seemed to be that he was on top of things, doing a decent job with the young lads.

The team is getting decent results on their European run and a few of the young lads are getting onto the bench (albeit through necessity rather than choice it would seem).

Don't get me wrong - I'm open to the idea that any number of things are wrong at the club, I'm just a bit surprised at this being mentioned.

You'd expect there to be "dressing room issues" at first team level when you've got a team underperforming, players not getting bonuses they might have thought the team would have been capable of earning etc, but the youth set up being a problem seems a bit at odds with what we might have expected?

[Hermit Crab]

Nisbet has asked BK to leave on the Monday after the Dundee Utd game just past. When Hibs refused to let him go to Birmingham previously he downed tools.

[Onion]

New offer over £2m I can see him going sadly

He was always likely to leave Hibs for cash at some point, but I can't imagine a more desperate time for Hibs to do it. We've 2 or 3 sellable assets on the books plus a load of flotsam that's not worth paying money to watch. Fail to replace him (and Porto) with more substandard players and Hibs will be hot relegation candidates.

Going into it, this felt like a horrible season in the making and it's living up to expectations.

[HoboHarry]

Certainly known to 'embellish' stories, shall we say :greengrin
When he remembers his own name at least. :agree:

[Not In The Know]

Scott Brown 2006/07. He knew he would get his move sooner rather than later. Nisbet the same.

Yup those guys all stayed around a bit longer as it was a decent place to be and the team were in with a chance of doing well…

Probably the younger players and Kean himself expecting them to get more first team minutes.

However in defence of Hibs, Laidlaw, O’Connor etc are still very very young. Laidlaw just turned 18 this month.

There is still loads of developing to do, whilst they are clearly performing really well I’d be surprised if Johnson never gave them a shot on the bench ahead of Tavares for example if he thought they were better

[Stonewall]

The last bit about the pay off is bs.
You can replace manager and just keep paying him. Doesn't need to be upfront.

Depends what his contract says I imagine.

[LaMotta]

Yes we had a LC semi to look forward to but half the players were all miserable under Collins, cant really say it was too different from now in terms of morale.

When players get in the Scotland squad its always likely to be the start of the end for a player at Hibs as they start to mix with guys at bigger clubs on bigger wages. Why would a player not want something similar?

[Steve20]

He doesn't want to be at Hibs and hasn't since he took the huff when he didn't get his Birmingham move. Then went off form until his injury.

So since he signed, he's wanted to be here for half a season max. We'll be even worse up front obviously, but he's clearly wanting out so best to just best price for him now.

Nisbet has asked BK to leave on the Monday after the Dundee Utd game just past. When Hibs refused to let him go to Birmingham previously he downed tools.

The boy comes across as a complete and utter roaster. Wanted to leave about 4 months into a long term deal he happily signed for the delights of the mighty Birmingham. Club have nursed him through numerous injuries. Been out the best part of a year and back for a few games and now wanting to Judas us and leave when we’re struggling. If that’s his attitude I’ll be happy to see the club punt him

If/when Nisbet goes the offer needs to reflect on the fact that he has been capped for Scotland and must be more than the 3m Birmingham offered.

Think the whole HTC and ER environment is toxic just now, can understand players wishing to leave. Doesn’t help when LJ says 10 players need to go.

[Torto7]

Nope. She was part of a delegation.

[Phil MaGlass]

No need to sell Nisbet yet, 6 days to go. A player that was banging them in then got injured came back after 9 months and again banged them in, I reckon a few teams would be interested in him before the windae SLAMS shut. 2 millions peanuts.

He wasn’t calling him a roaster, just saying he puts the A in ambitious. A ferocious trainer and just wants to reach the top at all costs.

A good many of his performances have been anything but ferocious, down right bone idle if truth be told, and his attitude stinks for someone supposedly determined to reach the top.

I won't lose any sleep over him leaving.

The problem is I don't trust us to sign anyone to replace him either.

10 defeats in our last 14 games and we are losing our top goalscorer. It's really not looking good.

It'll be cool - we have a top manager

Ex player whose son is still in the youths

BOOM, you should have said that earlier

If we sell him and bring in another obscure no hoper like in the last few windows then we 100% deserve to be relegated.

[HibsGW]

Thats unfair on McCallister. He's not even played for the first team yet has he?

I assume that’s partly the point being made that we’ve spent a lot of money on guys who aren’t anywhere near being ready for our first team when the first team should have been prioritised

[Svengali]

😂😂😂😂

What about if we bring in a known player and he turns out to be hopeless, is that better than the obscure no hoper?

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

Whatever we get should be spent wisely. We seem to have overlooked this point up to now.

It’s maybe for the best that the recruitment department do their job and find us a good player. Got to get it right eventually.

[Up-the-slope]

New offer over £2m I can see him going sadly

Its NOT an offer of £2 million.... it COULD total £2 million with unspecified add ons... so t depends how much is guaranteed / how much of that is cash (rather than paid in small instalments) and how likely the add ons are to become reality...

For instance if £250k is an add on IF Millwall get to EPL.... we would never see that. ... X number of appearances (you have to wait for that and hope he does not get injured ) X number of Scotland caps ... again wait and hope..

Cash is king when we need to get replacements in and any club we goto is going to think... they have just got £2 million..... up the price

[cabbageandribs1875]

very difficult to get good players for a decent £££ in the january window :(

[Jones28]

Is he away then?

[Tully]

Is he away then?

Soon

It's still some way short in my honest opinion...

It would be wise to spend it on the team.

Would we not be better spending any transfer money on nice hospitality suites and big screens round the stadium. O wait a minute though

[McGruber]

Nah, be fine.

Look what we built with a whole summer window and 3 million for Doig. 2 million in 6 days a doddle

[GreenGray]

So unless we invest the money this window, which with our history if we do it’ll be badly done it appears we’ve just decided this season is done?

We’ll sign a couple of loans and hope that’s enough to see us through.

[Hibees1973]

Just catching up with this thread.

Surely there is no rush to sell him.

What about Ron's ambition that we are top 4 and in Europe every year.

If he goes the timing of this is shocking. He is the only major asset we have and I don't trust Ron's son to spend any money wisely.

Depressing state of affairs just now throughout the whole club.

Can be done though. Jan 2018 we got rid of Stokes and Simon Murray and replaced them with Kamberi and Jamie McLaren, they worked out okay that season.

Ron clearly has no ambition

[Cropley10]

But, but big screens and hospitality

[HarpOnHibee]

"Improving the match day experience"

[Hibs4185]

Ron clearly has no ambition

Or he’s fed up with the negativity and vitriol aimed at his son. It would be easy to understand if he had lost the enthusiasm for the club

[Cropley10]

It would be wise to spend it on the team.

Won’t it be spent on upgrading the infrastructure, or something like that?

[blackpoolhibs]

Or he’s fed up with the negativity and vitriol aimed at his son. It would be easy to understand if he had lost the enthusiasm for the club

Well so ****in what, grow a set of balls and **** off then Ron.

[Trinity Hibee]

Bang on. If he’s lost interest he can sell up. Absolutely ruined us in 3 years

[Heisenberg]

Or he’s fed up with the negativity and vitriol aimed at his son. It would be easy to understand if he had lost the enthusiasm for the club

He shouldn’t have made his son the head of recruitment at one of the biggest clubs in Scotland if he couldn’t handle the scrutiny and pressure. He was always going to get it in the neck when things went wrong because of the manner of his appointment and his clear lack of experience.

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

£720k of that goes to Dunfermline, if his sell on was the rumoured 30%

[LunasBoots]

Ahwell, full rebuild in the summer then.

[Stubbsy90+2]

Or he’s fed up with the negativity and vitriol aimed at his son. It would be easy to understand if he had lost the enthusiasm for the club

What age is he? 5?

[1van Sprou7e]

As sheit as this is, if he really wants away I'd rather just sell him

I don't blame Nisbet if that's the case as it's a short career and he's already had a big scare with his injury, but I'd rather take 2 million than a player who doesn't want to be here

[McGruber]

Ahwell, full rebuild in the summer then.

If there's no rebuild in the next 6 days the summer rebuild will be for the Championship

[Hibees1973]

Come on, he is an adult and apparently a hard nosed businessman.

Do you really think he is that thin skinned to be irked by a few jibes at his son (most of which though are justified given his son's incoherent transfer strategy).

Most will know on here I've had serious concerns about the Gordon's for ages.

If they sell Nisbet, which logically they cannot do just now, given the turmoil at the club this will turn even the most placid Hibee against them.

To sell Nisbet now is football suicide. Do the Gordon's want to relegate us?

He didn't want to be here from the day he arrived.

[Mcbizz1998]

We will go down if he isn’t replaced properly.

With all the rumours going about the dire morale at the club, then yes I don't blame Nisbet for wanting to go.

However, he is under contract just now and the club decides when and how much he goes for.

Now is not the time.

Exactly this ..
