I think getting him out on a loan deal for a season to a decent club would be beneficial for his development , maybe a club like Dunfermline if Lennon stays there .
I think it’s brilliant. He’s been on the decline for the last few seasons.Quote:

I think if Lennon stays at the Pars the type of guy he is he will undoubtedly be wanting to try for the championship title. I think there would be more chance of Rudi playing regularly there than a team in the lower end of the premier , plus you have the fact if the Pars do mount a title challenge they are winning more than a team struggling in the bottom end of the premier which brings different things to a player like confidence, feel good factor etc .Quote:

That will severely impact our transfer dealings now
Make it a lot harder to convince Rocky and Triantis you would think
Aye was thinking the same i really hope we as a club were not just expecting Celtic to win and planning for that without back up plan..Quote:

Triantis and his agent would have known the score as soon as Celtic put us out the Scottish, though. From then on, we were never guaranteed group stage football. They knew what place came with finishing third.Quote:

To suggest that anyone has said he has signed for next season is totally disingenuous and wild!Quote:

Still a lot of unknowns in terms of Rocky leaving or staying. Youan and Vente likely to both move on? Miller possibly away too? We are definitely two strikers short with Myko gone and Gayle retiring, a Triantis hole that needs to be filled in the middle of the park, a goalkeeper short. We've got McGrath coming in to presumably play where Campbell and Hoilett have been. when does the window actually open?

Hibs seem to have some very good people on board now and I would have expected them to have plans for every eventuality, if they didnt then they are in the wrong ****ing job.Quote:

If hibs put the same grit and determination into next season we wont be far away again and the board know that we will need some quality additions to achieve that.
How is it a fact,money and ambition will govern the next move for triantis,if he wants to stay great ,if he wants to move ,so be it.we have no control over the situation,I hope he stays.Quote:

Playing right back in this gameQuote:

We were linked with Galbraith a couple of years ago.
Interesting he’s now a right back/RWB - a position we need to improve on imo.
I see on Twitter hearts have been linked with Josh Mulligan, but then again that was lifted from kickback.
Miller wants to leave according to a mate of his I know. Wanted to leave at end of contract and wasn’t particularly pleased we took the option on him apparently.
Not sure why players sign a contract that gives a club an option of an extra year if they aren't happy with those terms. If indeed he does want to go I hope the deal is done quickly to allow us to get in a proper replacement.Quote:

Quite happy for miller to leave if we get a fee
Miller has been better this season definitely, but he seems like a bit of a legend in his own mind. Hope we do get some decent money for him if he wants away.
If Miller was to leave I wouldn’t be overly concerned. It feels as if he had that position on the right of the back three for ages but, really, it was a handful of games he played there in the second half of the season.
I’d rather just keep as much of the squad together as we can though.
He’s far better in that position than O’HoraQuote:
Originally Posted by B.H.F.C

To contradict that though, he’s definitely replaceable. At the risk of opening a can of worms, there was talk of Porteous coming back, if we were to sign him to replace Miller that’d be a huge upgrade I think.
He was all over the place in the game at Paisley. OHora may not have his pace - an issue, of course - but Miller is still very raw. When he gets the physicality and pace bit right he's very positive but when he's off it, it's still an issue.Quote:

Glad Hibs activated the clause, if he goes we get money.
Good player, lets see what the summer brings, trust in David Gray and Hibs to get it right.

If true Jamestown is proving its weight in gold…Quote:

Agree, I think that would improve us in that position. By no means would I be chasing Miller out the door, I think he’s done well at times. If there is anything in the chat that he’d rather be elsewhere then we just sort it out as quickly as we can.Quote:

Miller and Levitt both came good in recent months, however unless they are offered a contract to stay and accept it, then I'd be happy for the club to offload this summer if offers came in.
I don’t think Levitt is in the same category as them as he’s been exceptional on the park the last few months. If we were to get another season out him like last season but he left for free next summer it wouldn’t be a disaster.Quote:

Miller been good but still very prone to a brain fart.
Not a great start for McGrath to Hibs career. Clapping and smiling whist sheep fans sing about Hibs falling apart.
Levitt is the only one out of them I'd be keen to keep, and even then I wouldn't class him as irreplaceable.Quote:

There’s nothing to it.Quote:

No no no just no. Jamestown has identified this player like every player signing for them any time soon. Any player who signs not using this outstanding (the only one in world by all accounts) analytical system is just not good enough. Well that’s what they say anyway.[emoji848]Quote:

Let’s not forget Sevco had to stump up 640k for Barron who had played 60 times for Aberdeen.
Mulligan has played 95 times for Dundee so would suggest a similar fee?? Well development fee.

Hopefully he’s not regretting his decision now, right enough. Rather than him feeling like he’s missing out on something, hopefully it helps him put that bit extra in to getting us through the qualifiers.
When did Hibs fall apart?Quote:

He can still cancel the pre contract agreement with us to stay with the Dons BTW. If done before his current contract ends. Wouldn't like to think he would but has been done before.Quote:

Don’t think that’s the case. Think he’d either need to fail a medical or both parties agree to cancel the pre-contractQuote:
