Ryan Gauld to be released by sporting with a year left on his deal. Wonder where he will end up next. Unlucky to get injured here and I think he would've made an impact had he stayed fit. Sad that some hibs fans just followed that turd Kris boyd's analysis of him after his first 45 minutes of football in about 5 months. Shouldn't have been judged on that.

I'd think he was worth a punt for us if we we didn't already have Allan and Mallan who are similar players.

I can see him flourishing in the right team. A bit like Scott Allan in fact.

What should he have been judged on then? His contribution as a Hibs player?

Gauld is obviously a promising talent but it’s telling that few Hibs fans have campaigned for his return. He was unlucky with injury with us but still... he did very little to suggest he would get into our first 11.

See Mulumbu has been released by Celtic. Is he the midfield enforcer we need?

John McGinn was a Scottish Championship player.

Not at 25 years old he isn’t.

I'm not slagging him off. I didn't call him hopeless or useless. I'm giving my opinion on his ability on the pitch after he came up in discussion. A perfectly reasonable thing to do on a forum.

I agree, one is just clearly much better than the other.

I'm with J-C and Brog. Don't understand your need to be so negative about him but if it makes you feel good for some reason then hey ho...I wish him all the best at Dundee (unless ever playing us of course).

I'd roll the dice. if he's free and relatively cheap wages I'd take a chance. 3 year deal. let him settle in and get back to what He was at Utd. solid back up to Scotty

Your post effectively suggested that anyone playing in our Championship is 'not good enough'. That's nonsense. A quick trawl through the players who represented us in our 3 seasonsSJM is the obvious example

I’m wasting my own time here. Forster tried his best but was not good enough. I wish him all the best with Dundee.

Your post effectively suggested that anyone playing in our Championship is 'not good enough'. That's nonsense & you know it. A quick trawl through the players who represented us in our 3 recent seasons quickly disproves that. Many of those, SDG & Darren M being examples were older than 25. Sauzee & Latapy were also reasonable older, lower league players.

It doesn't make me feel good or bad, I'm participating in a discussion on a forum. I don't need to be negative. I think the real sad ones are the ones judging me based on my opinions of an ex player. I guess I should just follow the sheep? No thanks.

I hope he does well as well, I have nothing personal against him, I just don't think he was very good.

Exactly. I really don't see what's wrong with saying that. He showed very little, less than Mcpake and Mcgivern who get slaughtered on here. I don't dislike the guy, we just found much better players.

I agree with you. As always, because he came from the youth team he got an easier time of it. He wasn’t good enough for the top level in Scotland but might do ok for Dundee. He’s nowhere near the level of Hanlon, McGregor or Porteous.

Okay so he played a bit in the first championship season and the promotion season (started about 3 important games, rest were against pub teams in cups)

He was pretty awful under Butcher. Some dreadful performances.

He had a good attitude maybe, although weren't there rumours of him getting a tattoo during the season, against the clubs rules, which ruled him out of playing for a bit? Probably rubbish.

McKenna is a much better player than Forster, not even close. We upgraded with 4 much better players.

Matches against pub teams in cups we were unable to win:

Came on 90 mins in a 1-3 loss to QOS LC

Challenge Cup Turff Utd 3-0 St Mirren 1-2 loss

Scottish Cup Started Bonnyrigg Rose scored, Hearts and Ayr United

Played in the Keatings game 2-1 win over Falkirk

2016/17 Championship P 24 D 15 L 7

Terry Butcher took over 30/11/13

The wheels came off the bus 10/1/14 with a 0-1 loss away to the sheep

He left 25/5/14

Not Jordan’s fault Butcher kept picking him probably because he had told the senior pros their contracts would not be renewed

I thought you might like Scott McKenna because he can kick and head a ball quite hard usually the way he is facing

People writing off our new striker for the sake of a defensive midfielder. Shocking.

You're just blurting out random facts now that arent really relevant. You know you don't have to press enter after every sentence right?

Time is very much on his side be as good as two of the three. Not for a player who looked retirement in the eye down to injury.

Okay. If there are 50 people in a room there is a 99% chance 2 of them have the same birthday. That's a fact. Still not relevant and Forster still wasn't good enough.

Fair enough.

But with Hecky saying he wants to operate with a tight squad and other options at AM, I think a deal for Gauld is unlikely.

If he really is available I would prioritise Mulumbu who will no doubt expect a decent wedge.

The facts quoted were relevant to your tin pot cup jibes comment

I Agree He was not good enough but while he was here he gave 100% for the jersey and that is all any HIBS fan can ask for

Jordan did not want to leave but as you quite rightly say once Daz arrived and then Efe the writing was on the wall and he was not guaranteed game time

We move on

Onwards and upwards

Sorry that I started this debate about Forster! I think we can all agree to disagree that some of us thought Jordan did a decent job and some think he didnt. The personal insults are becoming a tad boring and are the main reason I dont post a lot as it honestly isnt worth the hassle. I appreciate opinions and accept yours MWHIBBIES . Can we all just move on ?

How can there be a 99% chance two of the people have the same birthday when there’s 365 days to have a birthday in and only 50 people?

Because it's me then 49 others, then you and 49 others etc. It's not just 50 chances.
