I think I was just a bit sick in my mouth.......

We need a player like black, but not black.

I don't want that dirty little blank anywhere near my club

Know what your saying but he is exactly what we need in midfield, I would swallow my pride and go and pick him up now if was to sign for us, plus it would really wind a fair few Jambos up

We need a player that can get stuck in, get nasty and control a midfield like Black does, someone who can be intimidating. Black is a horrible little rat but thats what makes him good, he gets in players faces and doesn't pansy around like many of our midfielders do. He had Stevenson in his back pocket on May 19, you could see Stevenson was feared to go near him therefore Black was allowed to do exactly what he wanted and had acres of space to do it in.

dont want to sound paranoid but if black was a Hibs player he would probably get sent off every second week.

Anymore info on this?

Last I heard we were looking at him and sounded like a good option to partner McPake.

Who exactly?.........

I'm not overly optimistic about this one.

He gets nick named "The Giraffe". I hope this is due to his height and not a slant on his level of awareness.

Orange skin with big brown patches all over his body and small horns on his head apparently. Eats leaves as well, but not sure if this is the answer.

Ok then name that player then, not all that many about that I can think of. I would take Black in a minute he is a narky, nasty little ******* that opposing players and fans hate and we havent had that type for years.

👍. If black is available and is happy to come to us on our terms then I don't give a flying **** who he has played for. If he enhances the team and gives his all then that'll do for me. Leadership and a good spine if a team, McPake us one of many leaders we need.

Go get him nutsy

Id love it if we had someone in our team that made other fans say that, but the majority of them are far from intimidating. People will have their own opinions, but Black would be an ideal signing for us imo, he has plenty of ability, a desire to win and a mental toughness thats sorely lacking at the moment. Hes far better than any of our current midfielders.

If we signed him he would get the same support as any other player

Like a Golf, but not a Golf- that what you mean?



The only practical reservation I have about him has already been voiced - just because he got away with it as a Hearts player doesn't mean he'd get away with it as a Hibs player.

I don't like the guy, but I can see his practical usefulness in a team that has struggled to assert itself at home for three or four seasons now. TBH, right now I'd take Joey Barton if he were free and available and willing to come to ER.

[SouthamptonHibs]

I don't care who we sign and from which teams we sign them from. All i want is better players than we currently have. We are starting from rock bottom. We have a great chance to finish 2nd maybe even win a cup if we get the right players in! Rangers r bust and Hearts have weakend. We just need a team thats better than Well and United to get 2nd IMO

At this stage with the players we currently have I agree, however, once we have our team in place, if the target is not 'finish the best of the rest' then why turn up as a player or supporter?

I think we need to be making good progress, something that would hopefully get us a top 6 place. Talk of 2nd is just daft in my opinion, christ imagine we dont make it, some fans would be shouting for managers players and tea ladys to be sacked.

We had folk telling us 4th was not good enough, because we did not get 3rd. 2nd place is not even on my radar, look at how we have faired over the last 2 seasons, we are starting from a very low base, with many teams above us much better than us.

We all hope the players we bring in are good, but ffs talk of 2nd place is a little premature.

[Iceman1875]

Ian Black football ability wise yes, cocaine snorting annoying hearts fan prick, no.

[Littlest Hobo]

Why all the talk about Black??

He's no coming anywhere near ER.

A player like Black would be good.

Take it you'd not be happy if he signed? What about Zal or Temps?

We have to be thinking 2nd is achievable if we sign another 6-9 decent players. Hearts are much weaker than last season and Rangers are bust. Im willing to believe that beating United snd Well to 2nd place is not that far fetched. Finishing 5/6th this year would be a poor season IMO. ps if we don't sign any decent players our currentvsquad would be relegated /in relegation battle as off the team we have today. If Pats the man and Petrie releases some funds we r in a great position to finish 2nd imo.

If Pat's the man.

If we've actually got any money to 'release'.

If we can sign between 6 and 9 decent players.

I can see us finishing 2nd or 3rd.

Big IFS though aren't they?

Why would anyone with all their marbles be discussing Ian Black to Hibs.

The only chance we have is half an hour before the window closes and he hasn't been snapped up for a decent wage down south. Even then he'd phone Tynecastle first giving them first pop.

Move on guys to more realistic targets FFS.

Agree they are big "IF's" but thats the beauty off pre season a club like Hibs must believe that we can finish the best off the rest each season as a minimum. Starting with any other thought ie finishing mid table is just unacceptable imo. During the season we have plenty of time to measure actual results v expectations.
Im hoping we get the players we need...with Rangers going bust its now we need to do everything to finish second as they'll be back in the SPL within a few years

[lucky]

I'd take Black at Hibs but its not going to happen. As for facing relegation I doubt it every much it will be Dundee or the Pars and they will be down April.

So it's based all on hope, nothing else.
