Don't know likes, I'm pretty sure I heard Janos Matyus and Antonio Murray.

**Expecting Rain** · 09-08-2009 11:21 AM

Benji and JJ?

***Hibbyradge*** · 09-08-2009 11:53 AM

Stokes.

**Hibs90** · 09-08-2009 11:56 AM

I heard we're looking at this Cameroonian international right-back and an Irish bloke who's supposed to be lightning fast.

Recommended by Tommy Craig, I heard.

He's quoted on the main board today.

He's been saying it all week.

The last lightening fast Irishman that he recommended was a left footed waste of space, who ran around looking like a frightened rabbit.

Nope, that wasn't the name....

Seriously, I hear that there's a possibility of Darren Dods coming back as a 'big, strong centre-half' like we're alleged to be so in need of.

**blaikie** · 09-08-2009 01:31 PM

Barr hopefully

Close. I'd heard it was someone called Andy Murray and his brother Jamie. Andy's going to play up front and Jamie will be right back. Good all round sportsmen I understand. And apparently the Miller brothers - Greg and Graeme are coming back as co-managers to replace Yogi after the dismal draws against Bolton and Blackburn.

“I still have to say that football is a big man’s game and picking up knocks is part and parcel of it. The players have been very receptive of what we are trying to do, it would be nice to rest them up and get them ready to go next Saturday. What I am saying is that what I have in terms of the squad right now - I can’t ask anymore of them, but I still like to think that I could add two or three.

“It is an ongoing process and we have to make sure it is the right ones. I hope to have people in for next Saturday, but the thing that has impressed me about the club since I came back to Hibernian is the way we run our business. It is not done on a wing and a prayer, everything we do is structured and I think that is designed to ensure you get the right guy in. I have been very impressed and we will take our time to ensure it is the right player and that we can afford it.”

That's not the first time he's said it. Business always tends to brisk up as the transfer window gets nearer to closing.

Cheers for taking the time for that

I must be going blind. I have no idea why that would be happening

You're welcome.

I can't possibly comment on your ocular disabilities. Too many late nights, perhaps?

Stokes.

In about 3 weeks maybe.

We do need another striker in. No Hibs player has scored in the last four pre-season games. That's pish IMHO.

Time for the Board to get an effn move on!

Any reason why TQM?

Agree on the striker front, I thought if JJ had got fit and had a good pre-season he'd have been liek a new signing but that hasn't happened so we need someone in. To have Nish as a stick on starter every week isn't a great position, much as I think he will score goals. We need more options.

Benji maybe?!

I don't think the Board are dragging any heels for the sake of it. If we are in for the likes of Stokes then I've no doubt that those sort of deals will be done on deadline day. No-one will blink until then.

I think JJ can still provide us with some goals, and Benji MIGHT sort himself out and do the same. Kurtis will come good, but it's breakthrough season for him - he's not yet a first-team regular. Deek is Deek - always a threat and should be good for 15-20 goals a season - but he's not the most predictable of players. Nor is Colin Nish - on his day, he'll score, but he does tend to blow hot and cold. We need a consistent, dependable lead striker, IMO - but then, doesn't every team in the League?

But I agree that the business will go down to the wire - and I'm finding I have to remind myself every now and again that Hughes and Rice have been in post SIX weeks only. A lot has already happened in that time.
