While I am enjoying the light entertainment from Tynecastle.
Do we have any indication of any new or potential signings for Hibs?
Happy with Craig and Tudor-Jones but i really want to know about strikers as replacements for Sparky n Doyle especially.
Aberdeen have been busy already and although we didnt clear out the same number of players they did, it would be nice to make more positive moves early on in a similar way.
Do we know the situation with Thomson or Claros?

We've signed Mcgivern as well. Pat was in the paper saying that he was wanting a couple more in before the first Euro tie.

It's all gone quiet on the McMannus front. Anyone have any info on that rumour? I'm hoping and praying Pat has a striker lined up

I like the fact that Higdon is proven at SPL level and Lyle Taylor plays the kind of style I think we need.
Liam Boyce struck me as the sort of player Pat Fenlon would go for as soon as he was mentioned - not sure whether that's good or bad mind ;)
If he could make the step up could be an excellent dark horse of a signing......could also be a typical flat track bully who doesn't have it at the heady heights(!) of SPL level football.
Adam Rooney would be a very good signing I reckon - not heard any rumours anyone know if this one has legs?

While I would guess that there are plenty activities in the background to iron out a deal for Sparky, there is no question that we need another forward. A decent signing will have a positive impact on the supporters who are just a wee bit unsure on whether to by a season ticket or not.

We have a good squad, we just need players brought in for those key positions (striker) and then we will look quite strong in the SPL for next season imo.

Our strategy for signing a striker was based on hope we would be looking for a partner for LG. That strategy has to change now & the problem is most of our original targets were relatively inexperienced as of course are our 2 current options. I believe our top target always was Taylor but is he experienced enough to allow us to go for Boyce (or another unnamed Irish player) as his partner, that's the dilemma. We will sign 1 before Europe & almost certainly 2 before league programme starts.

Need to get cracking on the striker front.
Looking forward to seeing who comes in.
Was thinking that I would have loved to seen a Griffiths and Sodje partnership if big Akpo had stayedLast edited by NorthNorfolkHFC; 24-06-2013 at 07:08 AM.

Doyle - gone
Griffiths - (99%) gone
Martin/Jimmy Scott was still on our books last season, is his contract up?
Rumours in - sure I read Sandaza was linked on here last week?

Don't know if i'd like Sandaza. He was class at St J but hardly registered on the radar at greyskull.

If we are going to get any return from our young players, we have to put a bit of faith in them. We need one foward who can score goals, maybe another looking to make the step up like Doyle, and we need to give Caldwell and Handling a chance to make an impact every week - they are at the stage where they need to be regular fixtures in the team.

Wouldnt touch sandazza with a barge pole after the way he left rangers.......we've had far too many bad pros at hibs over the last few seasons

Fortunately I don't reckon Fenlon will touch him either - he's spent too long turning that dressing room into one full of good attitudes and proper pros to drop someone like Sandaza in there.

it was an 'opportunist' sacking, if he had scored a barrowload of goals for the buns i doubt very much he would have been sacked for getting duped by a taxi driver :)

Aside from the booze element it reeks of a big shot attitude.
Also the way he handled the sting - wasn't just admitting it was only for the money.....he was actively pushing a sneaky agenda (reminded me a bit of the John Higgins sting where he was so pro-active it said more about him as a character than just the evidence itself).
Edit: I do get that players are just there for the money but you can do that in a professional way and you can do that in an unprofessional way. Sandaza for me is the latter.Last edited by The Leith Dutch; 24-06-2013 at 08:51 AM.
