Kamberi, maybe, if we got good money that would help us finance a deal for McNulty and another striker.

If we sign Omeonga and a couple of other midfielders (Gravenberch & O’Hara?) i could see Slivka being allowed to move on.

Letting Slivka move on makes sense to me. He’s never going to nail down a starting place here. If we could move him on and bring in three central midfielders who aren’t number 10s then we’d be in pretty good shape imo.

McNulty liked the hibs announcement today on twitter. Not sure if that means anything

Transfermarket says James' contract expires 30th June? Is that why it's not been announced?

It would just be announced as a pre-contract if that was the case.

Will be delighted to be wrong of course and new players will always get my support. Happy we are doing our business early!

FGR play in the football league, if that eases any of your worries!

My feeling is when they're unknown quantities you've got to have faith in the manager to get it right. I can't ever remember us being so proactive in the transfer market though.

They may very well think for a few days why bother and just sit on it until 1/7

Also drip feeding the signings keeps the pot boiling.

I have a feeling there are a couple of departures coming up, one of which will be significant and a new signing or two will help soften the blow

Faith in the manager but also the fact recruitment have been looking at him for 2 years...and then forked out.

Yup it's a bit crazy to be writing players off before they even officially signed. Me...I'm happy we are getting our business done early and appear to be getting all our 1st choice targets in

Sounds like you don't belive that? If not, why not? I can't see why it would be a stretch that Hibs, with their recruitment team, had been aware of him and that a manager who has managed and coached in England would also be aware of him

Kamberi out, McNulty in.
Swap or 2 separate deals

I dont see McNulty happening tbh unless it's a loan later in window and think Flo will stay..Hecky has already said hes a big part of his plans

My point is mainly that Hecky has players in mind and the board are backing him. Not sure the recruitment team are in charge as claimed. Not a dig, just an observation.

You find it a remarkable coincidence that a Scottish team which monitors the lower leagues in England identifies the same free scoring striker that is also of interest to a promising young English lower league manager?

Hecky has previously confirmed that he's a fan of the loan system so it wont be a shock to get a couple of loans near the end of the window.

I think McNulty will sign and on a permanent deal!

Mcnulty is defo not coming back on a permanent deal as Reading have told both Mcnulty and Hibs they want to recoup the 1m they paid for him.

I believe there are a few League 1 clubs interested including his old side Pompy.

Last minute loan is the best we can hope for but it wouldn't surprise me if Hecky has already sorted his team out by then

The comment about Sean Clare being the worst sriker ever is pretty accurate. Also the expected ignorant comments about the Premiership being no better than EL2. Mental.
