Very frustrating player, pure class one game and distinctly below average for the next 4-5 games. Obviously not a direct replacement for McGinn but was brought in to take his place in the team as the box2box player, just wasn't up to the standard we need.

The most games he ever started for us in a row was 6 (in the league, probably 7/8 including cups) and that only happened twice so really don't think that is at all true.

I think that was partly the reason for him not getting many games from the start. Form was far too up and down

[Smartie]

Very good player on his day, not consistent enough.

Never honking but far too often he was average when capable of much, much better.

I have a hunch that we missed out on some great football from him as his contract ran down, which maybe says something, as I don't think we'd have seen any more than the usual from him if he had signed a new contract.

It's tough to see a player who was clearly capable of great moments move on, but it's hard to argue that this isn't a correct and pretty obvious decision.

Interesting to see where he pops up next.

When are we able to start signing players?

When players get back to being paid 100% of their wage whenever that will be

Thankfully it’s not when players have been fully repaid their wages that were deferred

Well that’s what was promised by the club going by their statement at the time

Slivka will prob be one of those players that in 5-6 years time (after he’s had a good season in the English 3rd division or somewhere of equivalent level) folk will say we made a mistake letting him go too soon, and post up a clip of him scoring v rangers.

It’s definitely the right decision to let him leave now.

I can’t believe people seem to think he wasn’t given enough of a run.

Imagine we demanded all our players got runs longer than 6 or 7 games where they hardly impact a game. It just isn’t going to happen. He had plenty opportunities and on the whole he didn’t take them.

Our form was actually really good in both of those runs.

Plenty worse players than him have had much longer runs.

I posted this on another thread...but didn’t get many replies.

Sorry if already been discussed..

So Hibs deferred players wages? ...so all players will get the normal salary they are due in the future - say they resume training in August (when we can also sign new players if needed?) That’s going to be a pretty large sum of money ?

Does that mean we will wait and miss out on new signings ?

Some Scottish clubs have furloughed players and will use the government money to help ? Does anyone know which clubs have done this ? Kilmarnock / Motherwell for example. Will that give them an unfair advantage as they have saved paying players ?

I know the top English clubs were in the news as they are paid crazy money and morally it didn’t sit well.

I assume most staff are all furloughed - though LD still attending meetings so must be taking a full wage?

Community foundation staff seem to be still working going by online posts.

Any one know any more - lots seem to be leaving and I assume behind the scenes they are making plans who they want to come in.

An attempt at humour by the looks of it.

We should go for Niko Hamalainen. Impressed at Killie last season and would provide real competition at Left Back

Our form? Possibly, I don’t know what stretch of games they were over. His form? Na, he’s never went on a run of good form of anywhere near that length.

Just cause worse players have had longer runs it doesn’t mean we need to persist with ineffective players over 10-15 games so they can prove they’ll carry on doing it. What’s the cut off where we say he’s been giving enough of a run? The way some folk make out 6 or so games isn’t enough I sometimes wonder if they want an ineffective player in the team for half a season or so just to make sure.

I'm pretty sure that he played in every single league win we managed this season, which is says something about Slivka's influence on the pitch.

Based on the one game I seen him play against us I would say yes. He looked decent. Not seen that much of him though.

Or the manager only feels comfortable putting him in the easy games?

Just joking btw.

I’m not sure it really says anything. For example one of those wins included getting taken off at half time along with Hallberg when 1-0 down to Hamilton at home in one of the worst 45 mins we’d seen in a long time.

A player with talent, but didn’t show it anywhere near enough, and as much a part of our failings the last 2 seasons as anyone else in the squad IMO.

I never mentioned how many games in a row he played in, I said he was inconsistent and was generally very average 4-5 out of 6 games, you hate being contradictory eh? If I or anyone else said black you'd argue white, very tiresome.
