    Didn't he do well at Watford?
    We were going to take another lad on loan from Vicarage Road but you don't get anything for a pair, not in this game.

    My personal call to Fenlon to preserve all transfer business to the last day of the window is bearing fruit. Gear yourselves up for August 31st lads.
    The season starts this week so would it not have been better to prepare a squad before so they had time to train together and have preseason to gel together.

    Rowan Vine in his interview when signing for St Johnstone said he'd been training on his own all summer just waiting for a call from a club willing to give him a chance. St Johnstone did that last week when they invited him up to train.

    Not sure why fans are so eager for these stories that reflect badly on Hibs. It seems pretty clear if the club did show any interest, it was after he scored two goals on Saturday and by that time he had probably made up his mind to sign for Saints.

    He certainly hinted at that when the Rangers interest was mentioned. He said he had been made to feel welcome in Perth and wasn't going to tout himself about. If Hibs did contact his agent, I bet Vine never even spoke to the club, so how did he turn Hibs down?

    Negative for the sake of being negative some posters.
    So we might not have been outbid, but we may have been slow off the mark in securing this player's signature?

    If we were interested in him, that is.

    That still wouldn't paint the club in the best possible light on the transfer front. If it were to be the case.

    For the long haul I'm to happy to get the right ones that want to be here. I'm sure we could sign all manner of players which is just what we've done in the past. Pat has shown at previous jobs he won't be rushed for the sake of it.
    The long haul? How ******g long is that going to last? We've been asked to patient for years.

    Is that that then... I really did hope for more this week tbh... Especially since the telly contract had been sorted.

    We need at least another 3 in minimum IMHO. Another MF and 2 x CF.

    If this is indeed it then we are in for a battle royale again this season.

    Some people might not agree but I'd rather Michael Stewart, who is as far as I know is still a free agent, over Kerr. I'm by no means saying he is the best option but he would offer more than Kerr.

    I'm glad that we're not buying a whole new squad. We've tried this - it ends up in cancelled contracts and squad fillers.

    In a team that lacks leadership, we're signing two experienced heads in Maybury and Kerr, the latter of whom was captain at Aberdeen. Williams is an experienced goalkeeper, who played regularly before coming to Hibs, and a fans favourite. Cairney is a talented player, looking to make the step up, but with a good history of goals from midfield, and Clancy is an established SPL player, who featured in a number of positions for Motherwell, regularly last season.

    We're building a team, and it takes more than a window. We're looking to improve, but if you think that you can realistically expect to go from relegation struggler to Champions league over a summer, then you're off your heid.

    This team is the team we have. I simply hope it is an improvement on last year, and continues to improve. Top six material hopefully.

    How many windows do you reckon then. I've been waiting and waiting and waiting and getting told to be patient, its been a transition period for the best part of 30 years. Which window will we have a team ready to play to the standard a team with the third highest support in the league deserves. I can't believe we are not ready for the season AGAIN. We have almost the same team that failed so badly last season. Two home league wins!!! So, how many windows is it then?

    Nearly the same team? We're looking likely to have 5 new faces in the door, plus two players who we thought we would lose. That's more than half a team. So we can't have "nearly the same team", especially with so many out the door! People are being hysterically facile.

    Is Ludo roy Coaching the young goalkeepers at the club ? along with Scott Thomson .....Dont want to start anything silly here but it looked like him coming out of East Mains earlier this evening

  27. #3056
    Must say, Michael Stewart's work level was way above what we have had. And was actually a bit talented.

  28. #3057
    season starts in couple of days and currently we dont have a midfield as such no ball winner and no talent not seen cairney so cant count him in that one.
    Will be same as last few years we will sign a couple of guys on last day of window and by which time we will already be playing catch up.
    I may be proved wrong however i very much doubt we will see any new faces before sunday or infact before the derby.
    I am pleased we have signed clancy however a good player for motherwell so hopefully he will do well
    Mcpake well dont need to say anthing about him we know we are getting a worker and a leader new goalie looks no bad
    so we have added a few just would like a bit more.
    Is there any real rumours doing rounds about pos players coming in postions we need

    It was on the rumours site so no wonder. The latest from there is a move for Akinfenwa, I am 99% sure he could eat Eoin Doyle, so could be a bit of a hazard at training IMO.

    Champions League!

    The majority of folks are just desperate for our club to avoid a repeat of the last two seasons. Many remain unconvinced that the transfer activity to date is sufficient to avoid that outcome.

    As Hibs supporters, we all travel more in hope than in expectation these days.
