Paul Heffernan set to leave Hibs... doing the rounds on twitter, and EEN.

Seems unlikely, given he refused moves to top flights clubs this August?

Frees another wage. TDD may be worth watching after all Go Stubbsy make my day

Delighted with this...

One of the worst strikers in Hibs history.

Probably doesn't if he gets a payoff.

Hardly. But definitely way down the pecking order so probably a good decision.

***blackpoolhibs*** · 31-01-2015 10:00 AM

Heffernan Kuqi Collins, Fenlon really struggled to bring in decent strikers, i suppose Doyle was ok and has certainly improved, but if he'd managed to bring in better quality up front he might have done a lot better than he did?

Not even close to being that bad.

That is absolute nonsense.

You only have to look at Heffernan's record at other clubs to see his pedigree as a goalscorer. Unfortunately for him (and for us as fans) he's not really had a decent run in the side and, when he did, it was under Butcher, whose tactics will never suit a striker of Heffernan's type.

I think he'd admit he's lost a bit of pace, but the lack of regular games will not have helped this.

As for the bit in bold, have you only been watching Hibs for 2 seasons? I could easily name 10 whi were worse than Heffernan without even having to try hard thinking...

Stubbs not pulling any punches about booth in the wee add on there seems strange it's that straight forward after him playing a part in quite a few squads this season

**~~Stuarty27~~** · 31-01-2015 10:09 AM

Shame about booth I thought he was a decent player.

What manager in there right mind would sign Paul Heffernan? Can see him ending up in the conferance or league 2 at best

Also odd given we have no cover at left back. Maybe just a matter of finance but I would have kept Booth until the end of the season.

Apart from paul hanlon who can play there and potentially fontaine if required plus one of the youth players

You surely cannot be serious? How long have you been supporting Hibs? Do you really know anything about Hibs history?

Heffernan has not been good at Hibs and it's time for him to move on I would agree, but to describe him as you have is completely wrong.

Yes seemed a harsh way to explain the Booth situation, something gone on between them?

He'll want to put as much of his own stamp on things as possible so it's no suprise guys are getting moved on just seems strange with booth playing a part and he's 'finished here' but Harris who hasn't played much he's hopeful of the loan being good for him and he'll come back

Not if we pay him off which is obviously why he is still hanging around with no prospect of getting a game.

We should free Cummings as well then, can't have anyone learning from Heffernan in training.

A decent player throughout his career, just not with us, in a better team and with game time I'm sure he would have come good but the worst hibs player?
not even close mate..

**HappyAsHellas** · 31-01-2015 10:29 AM

Heffernan is a proven goal scorer at every club he's been at with his worst record of 1 goal every 6 games being with Hibs. This is/was largely due to injury and mismanagement. He can still do a job for about half of the premier teams who would be glad to take him. I applauded him for wanting to stay and fight for his place, but it just hasn't worked out for him and with recent additions he must know he's even further down the pecking order. I would hope that this reason alone would see him happy to move on.

***lucky*** · 31-01-2015 11:00 AM

Heff needed games and the ball played into his feet. The style under TB did not suit him and he then has picked injuries and has not been able to regain his form or place.

Several managers have not picked Booth yet he remains a fans favourite. I wish him well put he's just not good enough at defending

Stubbs has made his call and so far on players he's been right with his transfers

***SteveHFC*** · 31-01-2015 11:06 AM

Thank ****.

**portyhibernian** · 31-01-2015 11:16 AM

Probably a case of wrong club at the wrong time with Heffernan, as others have said his goalscoring record is fairly decent elsewhere. Due to his age I'm not sure how many top flight clubs would be interested but could certainly see him at Queen of the South or something.

Second your thoughts on Booth- delighted that Stubbs is so clear minded around the quality of player he wants playing for him

You and stuart27 👉👌? 😂

Quite happy with our squad now

**Big_Franck** · 31-01-2015 11:28 AM

Thank god, he should have been gone long ago. He's obviously hanging around for a pay off, and I dare say i would do the same thing in his situation so can't really blame him for that.

He's not the worst striker in our history but IMO he's one of the worst we've had in the last 10 years. Bar his first three or four games he's offered absolutely nothing and has struggled to get a game when fit in poor Hibs teams.

Good luck to him wherever he ends up though.

**Thecat23** · 31-01-2015 11:29 AM

Heff was good 5 years ago. He's utter dross for Hibs and folk saying lack of games didn't help, the lack of games was because he's past it. No pace and his shots have zero power!!

Delighted he's heading out of Hibs!

**iwasthere1972** · 31-01-2015 11:32 AM

I was delighted when he signed for us but simply hasn't been good enough in the little time that he's actually played.

No hard feelings. Wish him luck wherever he lands up.
