    Yes but they decided they didn't need him because they've got loads of cover for defensive positions already.

    That's a load of toshney. If they were well covered in defense, why take him on trial in the first place? He wasn't good enough but they would'nt broadcast that thinking some other mugs might take him on. If he was good enough they would probably have gone for him. Still, it's up to Stubbs.

    We seem to be going back over Pat Fenlon's targets.

    Pattison was looked at under Fenlon and so was Toshney.

    I remember paying particular attention to Toshney in the game v. Dundee before the cup final against Celtic because of the info I had. He was absolutely mince.

    Trying to get Sparky on loan was also a repeat.

    Are you suggesting hibs are mugs to give him a trial? Decent players have been rejected by clubs before and they've gone on to do well elsewhere.

    Actually, I think giving the likes of Toshney a trial over Riordan is crazy and can't believe some people on here are ok it with. And threads like this make us the laughing stock of fan forums around the country....nay, around the world !!




    Could be a great scoring partnership resurrected?

    Four days later, Toshney made his second appearance in a 1–1 draw with Hearts. His header from a corner was blocked on the line before Paul Heffernan put it in the back of the net - wiki

    I recall that game as well. Didn't have any info on him but he stood out the whole game. Stood out as someone who was absolutely hopeless at football.

    It's a trial guys, he's not been given a 6 year deal. I trust Stubbs judgement based on who he's brought in so far. If he's to get a deal it'll be because he has impressed in training.

    Dundee had a left back. Benedictus or something. I thought he was decent but it seems he's been loaned out to Alloa.

    Yep, the posse is coming your way BH.

    What do you prefer? the guillotine, the rope or lethal injection?

    1. Certainly looks like it.
    2. No, and I never did for one second.

    My memory of toshney is exactly the same as yours, the fact he's just been pied by hearts doesn't give me much encouragement either.

    That said, if he's as bad as he was in that game then there's no way he'll get a deal, he was like a slower less mobile Darren dodds.

    Well going by the Handling deal, Toshney will probably get a 6 year deal

    A wee update on Toshney.

    He is indeed training with us.

    He didn't get a contract from Hearts because they weren't wanting him, it was because the deal was reliant upon Scott Robinson leaving.

    Defensive cover needed

    With Hanlon being out and just coming back if we had another defensive injury we would be struggling so we do need someone on short term contract that can
    Play a number of positions for cover ,as we also don't know how Fontaine is going to turn out yet either

    Robinson was told he was free to find another club, he didn't so he is still on the Tynecastle pay roll.

    Puts to bed the "Hearts are paying more than us again" crap if they're operating a one in, one out policy.

    Why are you banging on about that, G.

    Stubbs sid that was what he wanted to do back at the start of July. He said it once. You're keeping it alive.

    In any case, I think his signings so far have been of a decent quality.

    You may have noticed one or two people complaining that Hibs haven't signed another striker.

    Maybe the right quality wasn't available.

    Ah so the right quality is not available so we are having a look at Toshney, someone who would have been the first name down to be released had he been at the club last season.

    I'd also disagree that Stubbs only said it once, in fact i'm pretty sure even Dempster has quoted this line too, but maybe they were only joking Dave?

    But nevermind, those quality players we have brought in so far have done well i'd admit that, and if they all gel we should shoot up the table, hopefully in time for a play off place.

    So is this guy being written off as mince before he has even signed for us?

    We'll need to let Stubbs know so he can stop wasting everyone's time and cut the trial short.

    I said he was mince in the game against us when I was paying particular attention to his performance. I would defy anyone to tell me he was good that day.

    I've never said Stubbs shouldn't sign him, that is his call.

    Stop being a drama queen.
