    Hibs Offered Deek £1,600 per week

    Heard 3rd hand, but originally from Deek himself (unless it's a wind up), that this was Hibs' offer to Deek.

    Seems pretty pathetic if true! Surely he's worth £3k+ considering his contribution to the club.

    My understanding is that.....

    ........ Derek never talks about his offers or contracts

    ........ Hibs never made him an offer at all


    Sounds like a load of nonsense then eh.

    But having said that, you'd better make sure there's plenty room on your bandwagon. There'll be a few jumping on.

    Nothing against you but I think what you have heard is nonsense.

    But no, at Hibs, Riordan isn't worth £3k+ a week, considering he's only performed anywhere near ability in one season of the last three. I'm sure he'll get £3k+ elsewhere though.

    His current contribution? Seems fair enough to me.

    Mikey, your info is probably far more reliable than mine but just thought I'd share what I've heard...

    £1600 PW eh ? thats £83200 a year, not bad for someone that just had one of his worst seasons in a Hibs jersey ever. I would love to earn that as a basic wage. Anyway I will believe Mikey that we didnt make an offer. He didn't deserve a new contract and I am one of his biggest fans.

    I could probably believe that would be about the level he was offered based on other things I have heard, however, I think it is probably fair. Where is the bench mark 3k per week coming from anyway?

    Kind of funny though that a basic wage of £83 000 a year can be called pathetic in one thread whilst another thread will have people moaning about the cost of watching SPL football.

    Well I'd rather spend a few grand a week on Deek rather than 2 or 3 average players.

    I take it you have forgotten the partnership Deek and GOC used to have?

    £83k a year sounds like rather a lot for a player who contributed very little since his return to the club. But I do hope he gets a lot more somehwere else

    The bandwagon should be the ridiculous situation that NO offer was made.

    "Used to have" Fair point.

    Well from someone who wants the club to show ambitions, you think paying our top scorer in all but 1 of his seasons with Hibs less than £3k, I'd like to hear who you think we could get for that money!!

    I think we may have been over this ground before. I could be wrong.

    A goal in every 3 games since his return isn't too shabby and his best season was when he had a decent strike partner in Stokes.

    GOC worked well before and would again.

    I can't believe some of the utter garbage rumours that get put up on here.

    ****s at the wind up and people run here and post it up.
    Some, sorry 95% of them all are just laughable, even sometimes the OP says it is garbage, but still post it up.
    Are Hibs fans that naive?
    Certainly not deluded like the Paedophile bus shelter brigade, but deary me, there are a lot of beauties on the site just now.
    So easy to get a lot of Hibs Fans biting and getting their pants all wet.

    Garry Oconnor has just ended one of his worst seasons ever although not for Hibs so he was offered a contract on him turning that around I presume. I belive DR was/is capable of doing that also.

    I agree Smurf, but if you listen to most on here, Deeks was on a par with De Graaf last season.

    As a Hibby i wouldn't want to be near this club if i was a pro player.
    Without a shadow we must be the most critical and abusive towards our players on the sites AND at the game.
    Where and what has happened to Hibs??
    I know we were garbage last season and a half, but since when was it ok to turn on a player who has scored over 100 ####### goals for us??
    I despair i really do
    And i aint interested in "aye but that was in the past, he is past it now brigade"

    We will never ever buy a player that will score 100 goals for us, our loss imo.

    £1600 per week

    Do people not have a think, or do they just post any old gash that they hear, from which is likely to have come from a ****.

    Christ Booth is probably getting at least that

    didn't it turn out to be the case that he didn't want to stay rather than we just didn't offer him a deal cause petrie was too tight or we didn't have another car park to sell or some other *****e that someone will post and you'll twist it around to try and suck what little morale is left out of the support

    How is thinking that the wage that Riordan would demand could be better spent on improving the team 'turning on' Riordan?

    Has anyone dismissed or even questioned his contribution to Hibs, especially the spell before he left for Celtic?

    If Hibs pay so poorly why is it we have the 4th biggest wage bill in the SPL? Hibs fans love to rip into the club. What a bunch of moaning face gits. Deeks was a hero to most for most of his Hibs career. He finished top scorer in the worst Hibs team in a decade yet he is crap. Gies peace you bunch of tits!!!

    ...and what wage do you think he's getting? Probably a few grand a week and deservedly so...

    ...although a total of 20 goals in the past 5 seasons since he left, so how is he good enough and Deek isn't.
