    Zander Diamond

    This is my first post for a long time but there has been a lot of lunch talk about Zander Diamond coming to Hibs? Has anyone else heard anything more than rumours?

    I've been taking great pleasure in ripping into my Yam mates about them signing Diamond. He's a terrible player, a complete bombscare. If we were to nip in and snap him up with the Yams stalling over a deal for him then I would be raging.

    Already been outed as a yam wind up (topic not the OP).

    Looks like they are as desperate not to sign him as we are for them to sign him

    Last link I'd seen (admittedly from late last week) was that there was doubt over whether he'd pass it or not but was to be given a chance to prove his fitness?

    Hopefully he proves his s**tness for the Yaks as well...

    Depleted as we may be I wouldn't want him near ER. Surprised Jefferies is in for him, hopefully he loses it again a la signing Petric, Eskillsson, Fitzroy Simpson etc...

    Bet the Yams wish it was a wind up he was signing. Know some Dons fans and they are glad to see the back of him. Would think Langfield is glad to see bombscare leave as well.

    They can have him o and Andy you just about had a heart attack there matey.

    I read that something had been flagged up on his medical to do with his ankle that was operated on in the past and JJ was due to sit down with his staff last Monday to discuss it. I am guessing that if nothing has happened by now that it may not be.

    Incidentally i live and work in Aberdeen and know a lot of Dons fans, not one of them is upset at Diamond going for two reasons.

    1) He is absolutely murder as a football player
    2) Well known for being out and about drinking and smoking of an evening and causing trouble.

    Come on JJ you know it makes sense.

    I hope so.

    He was decent about 5 years ago. Celtc sniffing around the self-proclaimed celtc fan turned his head, never been the same since.

    Feel sorry for Langfield, an honsest pro, but I refrain from saying good. He is absolutely shocking, can't believe he has ever been in a Scotland squad.

    He's had his health issues recently, hope he gets better soon. But he ain't never going to get any better in the football sense.

    It shouldn't be hard for us to find a striker who can get the better of him next season. Here's hoping!

    I'm surprised how long it is taking and wonder if they will actually end up signing him at all. Shame if they didn't.

    Perhaps they are all the voice of reason, maybe they could no longer endure lurking and having to read about how hibs are about to implode, maybe they are giving up smoking and their once busy little fingers now need to be occupied, or even worse they are Jambags!

    Quite right.
    I think Buckie Thistle released a few players at the end of their season. I wouldn't be surprised if they all turned up at our door, probably carrying injuries. Yet another excuse not to renew my season ticket.

    He'll die before he's sold.

    Well, a couple of annoying stories in today's Sun.

    - Diamond's move to the Yams is dead.
    - Mehdi Taouil signs for the Yams (I was hoping he'd end up here).

    Zander Diamond - my take

    A player that had obvious potential that he never realised, or even progressed into.

    For me ZD is about the same level as Paul Hanlon just now whose our best centre half. So that means he'd be an improvement as out 2nd centre half. However he is the last thing PH needs alongside him as he seeks to grow into a top class centre half. We've already ballsed up enough with PH playing him at LB, it's time we gave him the proper support to make him our best centre half through the ranks since Hunter and beyond.

    ZD isn't great and he's certainly a step down from Zaliukas but he's no worse than what we have at the moment. I hope we can do better and I feel with a experienced strong centre half we have a good pairing and ZD is definitely not that. If we don't find the man I'd go with Murray in there but my nightmares of him at Ayr Utd live on and he'd have to exercise those demons.

    Ultimately we need to sign someone to compliment Paul Hanlon who IMO has the makings of a top class centre half.
