Got a little bored waiting on rumours or transfer news so thought I'd ask for ChatGPT to suggest some. It gave me the following
Ed Turns a CB from Brighton
Jason Kerr CB
Giovanni Hagg DM from Rodez FC
Owen Oseni a forward from St Mirren
I'm not sure that ChatGPT is ready for this as at least 2 of these players have signed for a new club.
His first loan spell I thought he looked a quality player before getting injured and then there were concerns he was injury prone.
This time the concerns are his lack of goals scored which is understandable but maybe that could be down to confidence or what’s happening in his life ..
I do think there’s a player there and in recent games he has done well ….
I wouldn’t be against the idea of signing him but I’d imagine he’s on decent money at Swansea and maybe another loan would be a better possibility?
If Gray looks at him and thinks he can get him properly kicking on again, then I’d back him. A young guy, away from home, recently split from his Miss Ukraine bird, feeling disappointed his English move hasn’t worked out and likely very worried about his family at home.
If we can get the club feeling like home to him, then I think he’ll really benefit.
Easy to say after one of his best performances for us, but it's definitely something I'd be exploring. As I say hopefully Swansea and others are purely looking at his goals return but he has a lot to offer
Finances dictate of course. Not sure what he's on right enough
I'd be keen to keep all (except Bursik) players that are scheduled to leave in the summer
Would Ronan Hale be someone we’d look at? Especially if Ross County go down?
10 goals in 33 league games for the team in 11th
Seems to have a good record everywhere he’s been. He’s 26 and turns 27 later this year.
Seems to buzz around constantly and be able to finish a chance if he gets one. Great finish today against Hearts
Not in the know but heard from a couple of people in hospitality today we are looking at getting Ralston and Forrest on loan during the summer
Can’t see ralston going, he is happy to be second choice right back by the looks of things and Celtic will need home grown players for there European squad
Spoke to a couple of guys at the game yesterday who heard a rumour we are trying to bring back Liam Henderson from Empoli.
They are in a relegation battle just now.
I hope Smith is OK. With a head knock, the club medical staff should be monitoring it for any reaction in the next couple of days. If the concussion protocol comes into play that would be Smith done for the season. Like you, the thought of Bursik back in goal gives me the fear!
It surprised me slightly his teammates didnt seem to be checking on him in the moments afterwards, although they had their own games to concentrate on in the aftermath of the goal. He wasnt moving much and was down on his haunches for awhile. Hopefully nothing serious.
Probably comes from the "we are trying to bring an ex player back" rumour
Nisbet, porteous are the 2 that immediately spring to mind
I'd take Henderson in a second though - in saying that I haven't seen him play for years - assume he's not regressed any of he's still playing in seria a
Not many goals or assists though

Exactly.
The Yam have had millions from charitable donations and from European football. But failed to move on to the next level cos they continued to shop in the same market as us. Dhanda, Spittal, etc. This is why they have not progressed, they have actually regressed.
I think it's very difficult for the likes of us, the Yam and Aberdeen to nail down third in the league for multiple years. Us as well as the others have spouted soundbites with this vision, but it's unlikely to happen.
However, the only way it could happen is to pay wages in excess of £10k a week to get the calibre of player needed, such as Henderson. It will also help to have a line of quality players provided by the Black Knights who are levels above the likes of what we already have.
This may help us to cope with domestic and European football in the same season, which the Yam and Aberdeen failed miserably to do.
Not really sure on the financials, but doing this may increase the risk of Hibs getting into financial difficulties.
If we can afford Boyles current contract surely we could afford Henderson.
He will be looking to get in the picture for Scotland surely too.
I'm curious about the £20K+ Henderson is on, has this been reported as it seems high to me
