He would be a great signing for hibs, he has ability and I still reckon he could have done a job for us but was never given the chance.

[Gingertosser]

good, creative midfielder, just what we need

[1875er]

Interesting.... would be a good move I think.

[Andy74]

Wide left player isn't he?

Not exactly what we are crying out for with Riordan and Galbraith around.

I've never seen the fuss about Gow to be honest.

Think he can play central or up front too. I'd take him in a heart beat, Andy.

He'd be perfect in the deep forward role that Hughes is trying to play Nish in at the moment. IMO

Wouldn't be surprised if Yogi had him earmarked for that role.

[joe breezy]

Well Yogoi seems to be getting the best out of players who people think are over-rated; Stokes and Miller for example..

Entirely feasible and I would be happy at that

[Hibs7]

Good player didn't get a chance at Ibrox.

Fair enough, I's also presume Benji will go this month or the summer as he's never used.

I can't see I've ever seen much of Gow but when I have he seemed to be one of these guys with a bit of talent that never actually seemed to produce all that much.

I'll trust Hughes in this one though, if there's anything in it.

[lucky]

Cant see where he would get a game. Wide left deeks, wide right Zemama upfront Stokes and nish/ Benji So where would be play? only way if Yogi changed to a 4-4-2 with deeks up froont and gow left mid

[Baader]

Would be a decent addition if he were to join. Another whose football career suffered from joining one of the Old Firm...

[scott7_0(Prague)]

So who is moving on to allow him to come... Nish, Benji, Murray, Deek, Stokes, the list is endless!

Nish/Benji role just off the front IMO. Dont think he can play wide left, not the quickest. Would be a good player at this level. Wonder if it would mean someone leaving.

Possibly free up Riordan for a more central role beside Stokes?

Gow wide left, Zemmamma wide right, Miller and McBride Central?

Many permutations i suppose and it may hinder the progress of Galbraith but he isn't getting much of a run anyway.

To summarise i would happily take Gow.

[Andy74]

I should also have said...can he play right back?

I would assume Nish or Benji, prob Benji.

[NOLA]

Would be a quality signing if it happens, lots of talent, can see wages being the problem though.

Would be a better option than Nish in this position IMHO, good signing if it happened, and would definitely signal the end of Benji's Hibs career if it happened.

[Cocaine&Caviar]

Has a surprisingly good jump on him for someone under 6 foot, good with ball at feet and naturally central. Wolves were interested, and had a bid accepted until he failed a medical before moving to Wolves...

Obviosuly good pedigree, and a loan move would suit parties involved, but IMO money would be better spent in defence, and put Wotherspoon to RW and have Zemmama in the hole where Gow would slot in, didnt work too great in the derby but i still think this is where he would best influence the game...

[truehibernian]

Deal could be dependant on Plymouth's transfer embargo being lifted however. They are awaiting a payment from an investor which would satisfy, they think, the league authorities in lifting its current transfer embargo and allow them to sign other players. This however may affect another potential Hibs signing sadly which was/is in the pipeline if they get the go-ahead to buy swings and roundabouts I suppose.

[Diclonius]

Gow again?

We've been after him on and off for three years and he never seems to be interested.

Doubt it'll happen.

[Pretty Boy]

Decent signing if true. Can play attacking midfield, on the left or up front.

However no quotes in the initial link so not holding my breath. Slow news day i think.

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

Are Plymouth not other team on the verge of money troubles? The Falkirk link is there again with this boy, like it was with that other sort Duffy that we were supposedly in for a while back. Seems to me that we are collecting bodies over quality and I am not sure that even the basic criteria of "better than we have" applies to this guy.

Think there was talk of administration a few weeks back.

[blackpoolhibs]

I saw him play a few times for Blackpool, he was at that time better than what we had. On that form i'd prefer him to Benji or Nish.

Im pretty sure that the transfer embargo was lifted last week at Plymouth?

seems to have been lifted already

[truehibernian]

That may very well scupper another target then should the player choose to go to Plymouth of course. They will certainly have better financial bargaining power than Hibs now that it is lifted.......booger !

Which body have we collected so far that wasn't quality, or at least better than we had in the squad?

[mjhibby]

I think he would a very good signing and probably does mean somebody else out on loan.Very fluid player who yogi knows well and could well play wide left with deek moving to a more central role.Just a sky sports understands story at the moment so lets wait and see.
