Digging gold from rock and roll
Grabs the mic to tell us,
He'll die before he's sold.

For me it’s all about if we can AFFORD him in other words not doing what our pink chums have done recently and thrown money to get a player and paid the price literally what definitely is in our favor I think financially the prospect of many European games to come if and when we get third place which I think would then trigger very large numbers of season ticket sales (maybe record numbers yet again!!) it’s a no brainer in that case bring him home ggtth

It's a no brainer - if we can afford him we should do everything possible to get him back.

We should be doing anything and everything we can to get him.
Would be fantastic signing. Watched the cup final highlights for a change and he was there reiterated to me if we went in with our best offer I think he’d realise this is the last opportunity to play for hibs.
Over to you Ron.

Leigh and doidge could be pretty formidable IMO, what with the former's technical ability and the latter's work rate

If his attitude isn’t completely spot on what sort of impact will it have on the rest of the squad?
Will he really want to be here or would it just be an easy option for him so he can stay at home? How motivated will he be?
I’m not righting him off but if I’m Ross that would be my concerns before spending a big chunk of my budget on someone with £0 re-sale value.
If Ross considers things and is happy with the answers then great. I don’t think it’s the no brainer some are saying though.

How many players do we ever get 30 or 40 games out of in a season? Can’t be many have done it this year.
There has never been anything to suggest that he isn’t motivated or wants an easy option. That’s just a made up worry that could equally be applied to anyone.
And as with any signing, we’re not going to pursue it unless JR is happy.
Whilst I don’t disagree with your points, I don’t see anything different to us going for him or any other player really.

A question. How would you feel if you had a successful football career, but unlikely to continue to earn big money, and had the chance to finish your career playing for Hibs?
Sparky is Hibs mad, was adored here as a player and thrives on adoration. If it were you and you had the chance to lead the attack for Hibs, score goals and run to the East Stand to celebrate would it focus your mind to give your best and go out in blaze of glory? I know Sparky has had a lot on his plate but has still had a great career, but he is Hibs through and through and thinks like we do. It might just be a solution that works for all. Mind you I thought that about Brooney.....

Who knows as to his motivation really. What we do know is that his problems have seriously disrupted his career, when he was at the peak of his playing powers. Not only did he need time out the game, it seems like he’s been unable to shake the issues off in the two or more seasons since. That clearly makes him different to signing any other player, surely?

I wouldn’t be massively concerned about whether we’d get a decent amount of games out him. Had he been selected he could have made 33 appearances so far this season based on being fit and we’ve still got 6+ games to go.Last edited by calumhibee1; 10-04-2021 at 08:03 AM.

I’ve no idea what the issue with him at Celtic was.
I just don’t see why an approach for him would be any different to how we approach any other player.
If he meets JRs criteria, we’ll go for him, if he doesn’t, we won’t.
That is of course if JR is even interested. It’s maybe just us getting excited over nothing!

Selling Nesbit, Porto and Doig could net Hibs around £7m, add in SJM money of £5m and selling of the ground Ron the Con will be off according to the deluded Championship dwellers in Edinburgh

The season we won the cup, 8 players played at least 40 games, Lewis played 52, McGinn played 51. A further 4 played at least 30 games.

Leigh is a big family man and adores his kids and one of the main reasons he stays in Scotland, I can't see him wanting to move to Aberdeen and it's a long way for a commute. Hibs are the only logical choice for him and his family.

This season he’s played 27, despite not really being wanted at Celtc.
I’d have no worries about him being available to play.

If Leigh signs he signs to play. Still don't expect to see him at ER next season.
