He was on 42k a week at Sunderland.

Can just imagine petrie' face.

That was when he was a highly rated, £9million player, he's now a freebie getting paid £0 a week...

Not that he'll be coming to us mind you, but I doubt if anyone would offer him even a quarter of that now.

Aye, he's worth a shout as well.

I think both Jordan and Daniel may go back to BR for the first part of the season on loan however.

Not sure if you can play in the under 20s league and the third division at the same time however.

I suppose 3rd division will toughen laddies up quicker.

Are any of these guys promising? Do any of them have the making to become the next Scott Brown?

Delighted if true! Paul Cairney is a fantastic player according to my Thistle supporting mate. Too good for them to quote.

Unfortunately, this deal almost rules out the possibility of Deano returning, unless Fenlon is really going for it.

Great signing nonetheless

He's not another lightweight midget by any chance is he?

Suggestion not a rumour!
Heskey has been released by villa, could he do a job?

Jordan Forster is a no nonsense central defender. Danny Handling a striker......Handling reminds me of Kenny Miller. Great eye for goal, all kinds of goals. Very slight, but fantastic workrate. Stanton and Harris are creative midfielders, but again, slight in build. Technically very good players but would need experience and braun next to them to flourish.

Tim Clancy from Killie.

Is he not a Motherwell player as of last season ? And he's mince.

Yes he is.

You don't need to be a brute to play the roll he plays though, do you? In fact, I'm pretty sure it would impair you.

So we sign a defender with spl experience who just helped Motherwell finish in third last season and that's not good enough for you?

Dont think he kicked a ball for them after the Jan window when the brought in replacements.

I watched Clancy closely when he was with Killie, when Mixu/Shiels pushed Hammill into midfield which accommodated Clancy in the right back slot. He was awful. I've also seen him at centre half and wasn't overly impressed.

I'd rather we sign Francomb if it's right back he's looking at, and use Jordan Forster for centre half cover if we sign McPake.

So yep, I'd be disappointed if we signed Clancy. And in my opinion, Lasley, Jennings, Ojaama and Humphreys were key to Well's success, especially Keith Lasley. Again, it's just my humble opinion.....if he signed and proved me wrong, I'll come on and eat humble pie mate.

looks like the Clancy one is a goer & hope to get McPake deal done.

I'm extremely impressed at the urgency to get these deals done. The transfer window isn't even open yet and we are already looking to tie down multiple players that are proven at SPL level. This is very promising.

As a side note, when was the last time Hibs actually signed a player from another SPL club? This may turn out to be a lot more recent than I thought and I may end up looking a bit foolish but I can't remember the last one?

Haha very true. Who signed them though? That's the major factor here. I think Fenlon has a real eye for a player..

Or maybe I hope that.. One of the two

bottom line mccall wanted to keep clancy, he cant be that bad, its not as if he was released!
but then again only time will tell if he signs for us which he probably will......get right behind him!

My friend who supports motherwell says he is a decent defender but can be a bit scary to watch because he tries to be too clever on the ball.
