Do us all a favour and just walk, that was our last shot at staying in the league and he's blown it IMO.

Have we not signed 6 players?? Some folk really need to get realistic!

[HibsMax]

Really? Your opinion constitutes an URGENT thread? LOL.

The ONLY way this window would have been successful to some fans is if we signed only the players on their short-list. Nothing else will do.

I guess that's it all over for another year.

Sigh...

No goals in 2011...we needed a quality striker. Possibly even spend some real cash raked in from January deals. We didn't.

The main weakness is up-front, why haven't we attempted to fix it? (31 year old 'journeymen' need not apply)

I wondered how long it would take for the first Petrie thread to start once the window shut.

[Hiber-nation]

I'm not happy with the quality of the forward and the lack of centre backs but you'd think it was the last day of the season and we were 3 points behind Hamilton with a worse goal difference or something. Let's see what Wednesday brings.

[ScottB]

Christ you get the feeling some folk are just sitting around hoping for us to go down so they can bitch, moan and scream 'I told you so!!'

Simply put, this is what we've got now, whether you like it or not. Do we get behind them and hopefully cheer them on to survival, or do we boo them, moan and get exactly what folk are moaning about?

[O'Brien[11]]

The players we have brought in is a joke! Complete unkowns and haven't made a name for themselves! They may be good, but we need a bit class and leadership in the team the now, and that's just not good enough! We need a goalscorer and a commanding centre half! And we haven't got either! Akpo sodje a hope does well but not good enough imo!

[hibs0666]

Only 12 miutes from the window closing to the first Petrie must go thread - that's efficient.

[Devine]

Absolutely disgraceful showing from the board again. We bring in circa £500k for guys who are out of contract at the end of the season and we spend less than a fifth of that on transfer fees.

We needed quality input urgently and that costs a bit there were options and we neglected to do anything about it.

We are getting absolutely mugged

I actually thought it was sloppy - I thought at least one poster would have had a draft thread at the ready for 23:01

Really? The new guys who started on Sunday seemed to get high praise indeed. Far from being a joke I would say.

Actually, there's no point in even discussing this with you. Why?

So which is it? Are they a joke or are they good? Do you even want to give them the time to show us?

Explain to me how its laughable. Do you find the league table funny like?

We have recieved 500k and spent 100k. And still they send us emails about hospitability packages, catalogues wanting us to buy all the **** merchandise whilst we are getting taken for a ride.

Laughable thread or laughable transfer policy??

This thread isn't about the league table though, is it? It's about the dealings in the January transfer window.

It's barely closed. Surely the success or failure of our dealings should be based upon the performance of the team with these new signings, not on knee jerk reactions?

[FitbaFolkKen]

6 new players, let's give the boys a chance before we decide if we are doomed and the players aren't good enough.......

I want to examine your head. Seriously. I mean how do you know how the new team will shape up and perform? Or don't you care and would rather just make assumptions?

[Taz_hibee]

Our midfield has been the problem for years, dont create chances for the forwards & dont protect the defence, he has signed what will hopefully be decent players to remedy this & a target man to replace Nish as well as a keeper to replace Smith

Will give the new guys every chance but lets not kid ourselves they are cheap bargain basement signings.

We needed proper investment for players who were going to come in and make an insant impact and lift the dwindling support we havent done any of that

It's a weakness I agree but the main weakness is at centre half (Dickoh) and keeper (Smith) the way we ship so many goals we'd need Messi up front to ensure any points!

The man is a Misor it is in his blood he had the chance to splash the cash and bring in Steve Clark the cheap option will always win. CC ? You are having a laugh mr petrie i know he was cheap but

[Wotherspiniesta]

How we doing knee jerk reaction thread?

The new signings looked good the other day and and we've brought in a keeper to compete with Brown whos not a) a flapping bombscare or b) constantly injured. And also brought in a 6'2 target man to replace Nish.

Not overwhelming signings, but some of the issues are being addressed at least.

[sixtwo]

We used to laugh at hearts fans for having their heads in the sand. They used to swallow every line the board would sling them and we would mock and laugh at their predicament!

Now we are a ****ing laughing stock. We have taken in millions over the years. we sold a 20 odd goals a season striker to a rival. we got our captain off the wage bill, sold our only play maker and cashed in on our only international (and arguably our most influencial defender). We have also got another signing off the wage bill by loaning him back to a dutch club.

We replace these guys with a little known (don't start with the ***** that he ran the game against us and celtic, he is very average at best) first division player, a couple of youth players (one of which was released, the other loaned from a rival), a player who is struggling to find himself in the championship / league one and a fat nigerian nobody!

What a total joke! We are fighting relegation. Every hibs fan on here, beside you at the stadium and in the pub will tell you we need a striker and a defender.

You keep the sheckles in your pocket rod you tight asset stripping barsteward. If we go down you will be remembered in the same vein as wallace mercer!
