Which 2 strikers should we sign?

[CMurdoch]

Holt won't be given a new contract
Graham isn't good enough for a team aiming for 4th next season but will hang around for one more season because he has a contract.
Cummings has improved this season and there will be teams sniffing about him. Hope we can persuade him to stay for a season in the SPL.

Given the above we need to push the boat out to sign a good quality partner for Cummings.

Who?
Moult from Motherwell. When does his contract expire? How much would he cost us?
Stevie May. Again when does his Preston contract expire? Would he come to Hibs? Is he fully over his injury? How much would he cost?
Boyce from Ross County. When does his contract expire? Is he good enough?

Any other suggestions of strikers of the right quality that would come to Hibs and whose transfer fee and/or wages we would be willing to meet.

Kris Doolan

Yeah, I was thinking about Doolan as the 2nd striker to sign. Probably for the bench.
Is 29 or 30 and has scored 102 goals in an ever struggling Partick Thistle team.

Update - Louis Moult will be 25 in May and his contract has another season to run. Would Hibs be willing to pay a transfer fee to sign him and how much would Motherwell want?

Kris Doolan

He seems to have a knack for scoring so a thumbs up from me.
I'd sign someone who was once on fire too

Stokes will be on a lucrative contract and has only been there for 1 season so unless they want to pay him off he will hang around until it ends.

Update - Stevie May's contract at Preston has another year to run. His situation is the same as Stokes.
He has been in England for 3 seasons and has done he haw so may (no pun intended) consider coming back.

Colin nish and Paul heffernan are the names that spring to mind here. Not nearly a good enough goal scoring ratio.

We should be going for someone like Stevie May (much loved rumour) he's a proven goal scorer at SPL level although has fallen on tough times due to injury. Much rather take a chance on him than have another Brian Graham.

Anthony Stokes and Louis Moult

Yes please

[CMurdoch]

Liam Boyce is 26 in April and his contract at Ross County has another season to run.
Has averaged a goal every 2 games for Ross County which is a good effort.
We could even offer to swap Graham plus cash for him
They would never agree to that. Think we are stuck with Graham for another season.

Stokes would be the dream signing.

Boyce id defo go for.

Moult maybe out of our price range imo.

Not what I'm hearing......Stokes, maybe, not LM.

Malonga & Doolan

Would go for May but reckon the sheep will get him

Would love to pass fat ******* mysogynistic Cowan's team on the way up while they trapdoor so Moult may be a bargain from his horrible wee team.

glory glory

Id take Stevie May on loan. Give him a chance to reinvent himself and make another crack at England after. Not sure I could see us poaching many Scottish Premiership players unless the contracts up. I could see Stokes happening again. If he was close to a loan move in January then I dont see why he wouldn't be up for coming in the summer.

[Ozyhibby]

Moult, Boyce, Stokes or May would all be good options. We may have to pay a fee but we are likely to be collecting a bigger fee for McGinn.
I would not bother with Doolan though, too old.

Anybody?

[Unseen work]

Stephen Dobbie would be a tremendous option imo and very cheap

[BlackSheep]

I'm hoping Oli Shaw continues his current development form into the first team, even as an impact player coming in to replace someone from the bench.

[lyonhibs]

We should sign 2 strikers that have been appropriately scouted and know where the back of the net is.

Whether we've heard of them before is entirely secondary IMO.

Like the signing of Boozy - never heard of him, but an absolute diamond.

Probably too much of a jump up at moment.

Not really been scoring for Stenhuismuir.

[Bishop Hibee]

I like what I've seen of Moult but he may be out of our price range. I'm sure Lennon has targets and if Oli Shaw is going to make an impact he should have game time next season.

Maybe, but Lennon has been singing his praises recently and even said if he wasn't away at Stenie then he would have given him a chance.

Gotta step up at some time, and looks sharp in front of goal for the Dev team... it's all about opportunities.

His youthful enthusiasm could have been a real asset this year seeing as we have struggled for invention in front of goal.

Moult would be a brilliant signing. Surely Well would be looking for a fair wedge for him though? He's their star player.

[eastmainsmsh]

Liam Boyce and Alex schalk

[YehButNoBut]

Griffiths & Stokes.

I can but dream

[Eyrie]

May on loan would be a good move to partner Cummings. Not sure who I'd have as the first striker off the bench, but unless we pay off Graham then he'll be back as the fourth choice.

[Col2]

Kenny Miller - with maybe coaching role - IF The Rangers don't offer him contract.
Steven Dobbie - goals and experience but under contract so would need a small fee and need him to want to come
Simon Murray - hard working has goals in him, still developing. If United don't get up then fee shouldn't be huge.
Stokes - going knowhere at Blackburn and either perm or loan move.

Miller can play wider. Stokes the same and Dobbie can play off front player as well so plenty of options and movement.
