It does seem as if greater organisation is required for the reserve league.
Cheers Billy - doesn’t feel enough to me.Quote:

Why are so many of our highly rated youngsters out of contract? Laidlaw, O’Connor and Blaney off the top of my head all out in the summer. Strange!
I would guess that they were all given their first professional contracts at the same time due to their age. Probably 2 year contractsQuote:

Reuben McAllister looking a player too.
Currently 4-0 up against Aberdeen just before half-time
Fantastic!, they're the form team in the League!Quote:

Brooster sees a lot more of him than me and really likes him as a player.

Is there a link anywhere to the current league table?
Good shout ringo. Club academy don’t seem to do one.Quote:

2pm at Gussie Park. It’s a shame the Rangers game was brought forward, as one or two could have had some extra minutes on TuesdayQuote:

Heard that Murray Aiken has been successful in his appeal against his red card vs Nantes so available for the tie vs Dortmund.
Can all these out of contract youth players sign pre-contract deal in January with other clubs?
Excellent newsQuote:

Get him on the bench Sunday, not sure what he has to do to get a chance and now with Melkersen away must to time to promote someone.Quote:

Any truth about Ethan Laidlaw not been offered an extension to his contract that runs out in the summer😳
I wonder why Murray Johnson never played. 🤔Quote:

Would prefer to see Laidlaw get a chance in the first team over utter dross like McKirdy.
Josh O’Connor’s also expires at the end of May……..Quote:

And I would suggest after reading Josh’s comments about his current contract expiring at the end of this season in The Evening News in October, that it would have been ‘common knowledge’ where you are too.
You may have missed it….and indeed I may have missed any subsequent reports that it has already been extended…but I try to keep abreast of things as best I can…and pretty sure it would have been worthy of reporting.
That’s the beauty of the internet these days..instead of waiting on air mailed Pink News’s for info, we can get the same news anywhere in the world at the same time you do.
I can neither confirm nor deny because I simply don't know Fred.Quote:

I have searched the official website and although there are several articles on the players signing they don't state when the contracts run out.
Just because Tam, Bert and Wul have all posted things doesn't make them true.
I appreciate the internet must be a godsend Fred for you getting information.Quote:

Would still rather have it than not.
Search the Evening News archive for the October article with Josh where he himself states that his current contract ends at the end of this seasonQuote:
Originally Posted by scoopyboy

I said it had been discussed on here…..I did not say That was why it was true…….that came from Josh’s interview.
Thanks for the advice about not believing everything that’s posted on here as being true, but I kind
Of figured that out already, thanks.
I will have a look for it Fred, thanks for the reference.Quote:

Funny because him and Garry were in the 3 sisters a few weeks ago telling people he was off to Arsenal in the summer (allegedly)Quote:

Will be interesting to see what happens
The worry fir me is we have spent a lot on promising players to be developed in a mythical B team Mostbof it has been wasted snd no one looks at this stage like they will break into the first team
So L J is rightly moving as many on as he can But some are on longer contracts and may not be able to be moved on So young players in Development team may now suffer as we are struggling possibly to give them desks that would keep them at the club
I saw maybe 10 under 18 games last season and I've been to the two European games this season.Quote:

We lost Connor Young to Rangers at the end of the season but he has done very little there to argue with Hibs decision to let him go.
I would be appalled if Hibs just let Ethan Laidlaw go without a fight, in fact I just can't see it happening and common sense has to prevail.
I agree with everything you have said and those are the lads I think have a future. Young McIntyre is the one I believe they have big hopes for, was speaking to Big Daz and Gareth evens and they were raving about him and think he had a right chance. Laidlaw looked good in the European games I saw and surprised he’s not been given more a chance at first team level. As you say hopefully they reach an agreementQuote:

O'Connor and Laidlaw are far far better players, only thing Young has on them is physical stature.
Wouldn’t say “far, far better” especially not with Josh v Connor. Young is a terrific finisher and more of a number 9 than Josh but they all have their positives and negatives.Quote:

Will point out Ethan Laidlaws twitter likes are an interesting look. Liking a comment saying something along the lines of "keep banging them in, they can't ignore you forever". If for whatever reason there isn't a deal on the table for him, that's shocking.
I believe 100% there is a deal on the table, my understanding is it's not anywhere near acceptable.Quote:

Although I said on twitter it wasn't all black and white as him not being offered anything and got told it is as black and white so not sure what to believe.
I would like to think something will be sorted out.Quote:

Laidlaw is a standout every time I see him, Ive seen him play at least a dozen times this season. It's frightening to think he can still play u18s next season. He's the one we need to keep.
Given that the McIntyre brothers have signed decent length deals and we all want to see Laidlaw signing who else would you prioritise.Quote:
