A 5' 11" mid-fielder!

Too tall, IMO.

***Diclonius*** · 03-01-2011 08:38 PM

Now THIS would be something.

Would be delighted if he signed. He can kiss goodbye to the Scotland squad though.

**IWasThere2016** · 03-01-2011 08:39 PM

Hope not. We need better and have other priorities needing dealt with first IMHO eg striker and full-backs

**James70** · 03-01-2011 08:39 PM

6'1 midfielder, he was with Livi previously. Called up to the Scotland squad for the match against the Faroes. If he has signed for Hibs then Harry Potter won't be calling on his services again for sure.

**Greenblood70** · 03-01-2011 08:40 PM

Have liked the look of this lad when I've seen him. Would be a good bit of business for us this early in the window. Hope its true.

Is he not a left-back/wing-back?

attacking midfielder when I've seen him.

***Wembley67*** · 03-01-2011 08:44 PM

A young Scottish player with a slightly hefty price tag for hibs, sounds a positive from the BOARD if true!

***AgentDaleCooper*** · 03-01-2011 08:45 PM

i was at school with him and can confirm that he is better than me at football.

Replacement for Liam Miller ???

Are you better or worse than John Rankin?

Doubt it. We need a left back/wing back who can go forward! Grounds is only a loan player. Apart from young Booth, who else can play this role week in week out!

carries more goal threat than Miller.

He's scored 5 goals in 33 games; bloody prolific compared to our mid-field!
Surely makes more sense than signing De Graf?

***Hibbie_Cameron*** · 03-01-2011 08:52 PM

Davidson is a right winger or attacking centre midfielder.

Would be pretty happy if we signed him

That's not where he plays with SJ.

**truehibernian** · 03-01-2011 08:56 PM

Good player, also carries a threat from set pieces as he is good in the air.

The downside would be a weaker Saints side at Tynie to knock the wind out the Yams sails and out the cup

In all seriousness, if true, a very promising signing.

**stevenhibs** · 03-01-2011 08:58 PM

Murray Davidson is superb, a real digger of a player. I was talking to a mate yesterday about him but though he would have been out of our range.

Cracking scoop that if true!

**ScottB** · 03-01-2011 09:01 PM

Was thinking to myself that if this is true it might shut some of the moaners up for a bit, but no, they are already here bitching away

Sounds like a good signing to me, young, Scottish, good potential, proven in the SPL and weakens a rival team, plus of course an amount of cash that will stop the 'Petrie doesn't spend any cash' nonsense...

**At The Edge** · 03-01-2011 09:02 PM

CC was talking about wanting certain players but wasn't sure if their present club would sell, maybe this is one of them.
A decent signing if confirmed.

If true, some of the Bamba money being used wisely. We have more than enough centre backs. Need wide players and attackers to take us forward.

**Sir David Gray** · 03-01-2011 09:09 PM

I was quite impressed with him whenever I saw him last season.

I haven't seen much of him so far this season but I would be happy if this turns out to be true.

***Billy Whizz*** · 03-01-2011 09:15 PM

Would love this to be true but like a like a lot of threads need to see something official from Hibs.
If you look at our central midfield on Saturday, Murray, Miller and D Graff are not the youngest in the SPL and we need fresh legs.

**~~PC Stamp~~** · 03-01-2011 09:19 PM

Signed an extension to his contract at the end of last season which would keep him at St J until the end of season 2012/13.

If we have signed him for £200K it's a smart piece of business.
