    Would look to try and put Gullan on loan to a Championship team, and bring in McNulty. With Boyle back, and being used further up the park, I think we'd have plenty of options.
    If you put Gullan on loan, and sold Shaw, we would have the front three from Sunday plus McNulty and Horgan. That’s nowhere near enough options for me. Gullan needs to stay now and get more exposure in the first team, especially if we have 5/6 meaningless games towards the end of the season.

    Try thinking before spraffing rubbish. I've never seen any post on here to suggest that Oli Shaw was hated.

    Hate is probably too strong but he was written off pretty quickly by plenty- but that's the norm these days to be fair. Dempster didn't help him with her ridiculous comment which I see got referred to pretty quickly on this thread.

    I thought he had something to offer and it's a real pity it's not quite worked out. Think he'll do well at RC.

    Very surprised a club like Ross County are spending 6 figures - £100,000

    It will likely be if at anytime critical means hate quite often. Like I have been less than happy with our defenders so I hate them all.

    Would be happy with this IF a sell on fee is included.

    Think they have a relatively well off chairman?

    Could be £9,999.99

    Ross County/bottom six/top of the Championship is probably about the peak of his level.

    I don’t think he was ever going to be good enough for us. Needs some physical development and needs about one and a half seasons worth of regular first team game time to perhaps find some self belief and confidence.

    Quite pleased we are moving on. Good luck to him though.

    How different things have worked out for him if that "goal" against Hearts at Tynecastle a few years ago had stood.

    Won't be the first Hibs goalscorer to be cheated out of a goal at the wee stadium and sadly I'd be amazed if he was the last.

    When given his chance last season how many times did he destroy our counter attacks and fluff reasonably easy chances? He has talent but at 21 he should be further along in his development. A lot like Sam Stanton and Callum Booth. I think Murray will be next to leave. Shaw and Murray have stalled. Hopefully both go to have decent careers but I dont see it at Hibs.

    Good luck to him, hasn't quite kicked on and see him being a Briam Graham type bouncing around bottom 6 clubs tbh.

    Possibly. Although winning goals at Tynie don’t hold as much weight as you’d expect. See Horgan who’s still a bit part player and splits opinion or Ross Caldwell who’s now... well I don’t even know what he’s doing now.

    Surprised to hear this, but may well be a good move for him. He has some talent, but his development seemed to stall badly for some reason, not sure why ... have to wish the young guy well though

    Wonder if signs today and scores tonight with a county. Win would be quality🙏

    Leaves us very short up front so a replacement must be all but secured.

    He’s at the age where he needs to play regularly but just hasn’t been able to break through at Hibs. Probably the right time for both parties, and if the fee is as being suggested then it’s a good deal for us. Can only wish him all the best.

    Be brilliant if he scored against the pink bottlers

    It sounds like Ross rates Gullan and wants to keep him as part of the first team group so that would have pushed Shaw even further down the pecking ordee.

    Gullan has been lucky to have the kind of move that Shaw should probably have got at some point.

    Hopefully Gullan can show something between now and the end of the season.

    Good luck to him if it all goes through. Gives us scope to bring another striker in too.

    Sorry to see him go, good player, maybe a bit unlucky in that Hecky clearly didn’t fancy him and that interrupted his promising progress under Lennon.

    Even though he is cup tied, I would consider a swap deal with Leigh if Lennon wants to swoop in at this late stage and snap up the best young striker in Europe.

    Surely Jamie Gullan fills his spot?
    Sitting on the bench, getting the last 10 mins, and being the target of the boo boys?

    This is a good move for all parties.

    I’ve never been convinced Shaw is quite at the level we need him to be at, but with games I reckon he might have got there.

    At his age he needs to play regularly. Hopefully he’s taking a small step back to take strides forward as he is a likeable lad who clearly has ability.

    Disappointed if this is true, I think he should've been given more of a chance this season instead of spending money on Doidge, that must've been a right kick in the teeth seeing him come in and taking his place. Never really been given a chance but always looked like something was missing, maybe some aggressiveness and ruthlessness.

    I think Shaw may well come good.... he clearly has ability but as others have said... his development has stalled mainly due to lack of game time. I would prefer to have retained him and sent him out on loan

    Good luck Oli. Hopefully a clause to get him back if all things go well!

    Bogdan was here before the window.
    But not got his 6 months extension.

    I disagree with the first part of this sentence but do agree with the second part. In the last year he’s not had much in the way of opportunities but prior to that I think he had a chance to really establish himself and didn’t ever really look like taking it IMO. I just didn’t ever feel like he was going to be our main striker, mainly down to the reasons you mention.

    Good luck to him, probably the right decision for both parties.
    Be interesting to see how his career develops.
