Aye, you just feel free to just make things up and not expect a response

Who’s making things up?

i was rather surprised sellick thought he was good enough in the first place

Full of very similar ratings for the rest of their squad, but at least they never burst the biscuit tin for John McGinn or Ivan Toney

They did get Shane Duffy cheaply though.

i don’t think Doig will be off this summer purely based on he will want first team experience and moving to a PL team, unless loaned back, won’t provide that.

If we were to sell him and get him loaned back i guess that would be a pretty good scenario still but i think he’ll stay. Glad he signed that new deal so we do get more when he leaves.

I'd wager a considerable sum on him leaving in a few weeks.

Surely if they wanted it posted on the main board they would’ve just posted it on the main board?

I would’ve thought it was pretty obvious that if someone’s posted something on the PM board they don’t want someone copying and pasting what they said on the main board.

NO one copied and pasted, FFS. (At the risk of constantly repeating myself, people on the PM board generally ask for it not to be posted on here, if it's important). In fact, if it's that important, perhaps they shouldn't be posting it at all ?

Did you actually read any of the responses I made? Read the various easily available links which say there is interest from EPL clubs

Here's another rumour, completely unfounded. Wee Ron will give JR the bullet if he doesn't finish third and reach the cup final. See how that works? I made it up. Like most of the stuff on here and the PM board, it's unfounded gashy rumour.

Ok, I'm off to don the full hair shirt and matching pants, with added itching powder. I'll deny myself my dinner in protest at my own scurrilous actions and ask my lover to deny me conjugals as part of my penitence when we meet at the weekend. I'll also post a score that ruins my chances of winning the HIbs. Net prediction league......satisfied?

Norwich apparently interested in Ryan Gauld.

Unless he’s improved massively he’ll be absolutely no use in the EPL.

[calumhibee1]

Do we still have some form of relationship with Man City? Infact did we ever? Or have I imagined it?

If we have we should be looking at Liam Delap.

Do we reckon group stage European football (especially if it’s Europa) could see English teams willing to loan us their very best young players rather than guys like Agyepong etc?

I’d say a bundle of MOTM awards in the Portuguese top flight vs mostly injured during his spell with us is a massive improvement!

Portuguese top flight isn't a good level outside the top 4. As someone who has attended countless games over there. He is being overhyped at the moment.
If hibs drew any team from 5th onwards in their league, I'd be gutted if we didn't progress over 2 legs

He is getting rave reviews at the moment and there is a few top English championship sides looking at him as well according to reports.

There's more than a few probably thought of John McGinn too.....

You are.

Sorry I didn’t realise you would take the phrase “copy and pasted” so literally.

It’s not even a big deal I was just trying to see from their point of view that if they posted it where they did they would’ve wanted it left there probably.

Did it require a sarcastic 4 paragraph reply where you go into great detail about itching powder, no eating dinner and refusing your hole? Probably not.

I’m not sure about that. McGinn had all the tools to succeed down there.

At 5ft5, built like the side of a fiver and little pace, Gauld would appear to lack them imo. He’d have to have developed technique and awareness well beyond most others in that league to manage.

Would have to agree with you based on seeing Maritimo Rio Ave a few years ago. Standard wasn't great apart from 2 real stand out players in Danilo Pereira and Moussa Marega.

True but he's put in some immense displays against said top 4 too.

Loads of folk didn't realise what a good player SJM was. Remember he wouldn't get into the Celtic team never mind an EPL side!

I remember talking him up on a Leeds fans forum and being met by total scepticism (I wanted him to sign for them so I could go and watch him).

Most fans don't really appreciate what players offer.

You omitted the hair shirt and y-backs.

I thought my reply was a mixture of outrage and ironic sarcasm. Anyway, I accept your apology, return one back at you and refer you, in mitigation, to the posts that immediately preceded your own. I was getting a bit hacked off with the self righteous indignation that followed on from my "revelation".

Anyways, the lover did read my post and has declared a no go zone for Saturday night, unless the Hibees win....

It's often weird seeing who survives, thrives and crashes and burns moving from Scottish to English football.

In my opinion it's very physical there, bordering on agricultural when you start to go down the leagues (alway quite funny considering how low esteem many people there hold Scottish football in). The ones who tend to do well are the ones who have the physical make-up to cope, less to do with skill or ability.

Ryan Gauld would, in my opinion, be a disaster in English football. Skilful as he is and as well as he might be playing in Portugal, he just doesn't have enough of what it takes to survive in England physically. You need to have either pace or strength in abundance, coupled with a cracking work ethic.

Funnily enough, for all you get the usual "my nan could play in Scotland" crap a lot, you've actually got a quieter but sizeable chunk who respect Scottish football and see it as a place where you can occasionally find a player who represents good value for money. Almost all English clubs have a very positive Scottish player story. There are many salt of the earth cracking folk there who it is a delight to talk football with. Then you've got the other ones who aren't worth wasting your time on.

Macey signed a 2 year deal

Must be Rocky's replacement then. Not sure why he would sign a 2 year deal to sit on the bench.

Not sure what to make of that to be honest. Marciano was always going to be difficult to replace and I've not really been convinced by Macey so far.

Yup, that'll be that. Hope Ross has made the right choice.

I’ve not been on the PM board and don’t want to open a can of worms if that’s what the argument on here has been about, but have you heard or read anything to make you think that?

Any idea where he might end up?

The rumour is from someone who could well know. The team wasn't mentioned but it's EPL level.

That would be a terrible move from the playing point of view as he would either waste time at U21 level or be farmed out somewhere.Much better staying put and getting some European experience.
