    Signings that excited you but didn't live up to expectations

    Mark McGraw - hopeless
    Hakim Sar Temsoury - totally hopeless
    James McPake - not terrible but I hoped for better
    Scott Robertson - had pedigree but failed to deliver
    Liam Craig - thought he'd be a player for us but only played well occasionally

    Who was the young Trinidadian striker we signed around Latapy's time who did little?

    Others?

    Yeah young McGraw (obv)! Aye he looked reasonable at one point but how many goals did he score for us? Beat Liverpool to his signature too, allegedly...

    Not sure how many goals he scored but he was a good partner for Keith until the injury mate

    Yantorno agreed. Never seemed to be fit enough. Perennially injured!

    I was genuinely excited by Brian Kerr. Also thought Billy Kirkwood was a great signing. Ah well......

    Maybe I'm doing him a disservice but I hoped for better for 250k in the 90s!

    I thought Jonatan Johansson would score for fun.

    I also thought Allan Smart would do really well for us but it never worked out.
    There's only one thing better than a Hibs calendar and that's two Hibs calendars

    Paul Dalgliesh was the opposite, set up Benji.

    Alan O'Brien without a doubt. Remember being told he was "Sproule on a motor bike", he had caps for his country, had played for newcastle etc. and that generally we had landed an absolute gem.


    Oh how badly that turned out. One of the worst players i've seen in my time watching hibs. Dreadful.

    Willie Irvine 2, Alan O'Brien, Edwin De Graaf without thinking about it.

    I was delighted when we signed Lav. Gunna was good until injury.
    Sitters and Wilkins good call though. Hartley too in that bracket.

    Vaz Te looked class and it was no surprise when he moved on to bigger things.

    Hurtado would be one for me. Fabrice Henry is another one; with a name like that he should've been class.

    Lyndon Andrews was good - just couldn't get a regular slot in that great McLeish team.

    Still, the man is a 6-2 legend.

    Steven glass - was so chuffed we'd got him, but injuries did for him
    Paul Dalglish - again, excited when he signed, and he wasn't bad, but it just didn't work out for him
    dirk lehmann - thought he was going to be so much more, but like dalglish, wasn't bad but hoped for more
    alan o'brien - nuff said
