Kamberi…… I shudder when I hear his name. A big useless caaaaant!

Been a lot worse players than him at Easter Road.

[AgentDaleCooper]

my main memory of him was of him getting called offside more often than he got a shot away...but if he sorted out that one aspect of his game (which in 7 years he must have done!), he'd have been some player for us.

Would stroll into this Hibs team

Girls don’t like boys girls like Simon Murray.

Worth re-signing him for that alone.

I’m with you on that.

I’ d be for telling our scouts a decent song is the top attribute any new signing could bring to the club.

That probably says a lot about the current crop of absolute s*** we currently have. Benny Brazil would stroll into this team.

I remember asking one of the boys who he was when we played Montrose in the Scottish in 2015, he was a standout that day, but had already signed for Utd at that point.

Was really pleased when we signed him after we went up, and in the first half of that season he scored a good few goals, including a couple of huge ones.

Was sad to see him moved on so soon, but hard to argue that it wasn’t good business at the time. However, I’d love to see him back again. So many good attributes for an SPL striker.

14 goals and 6 assists in 28 appearances. I know quite a few of the goals were in the league cup group stage but it’s still a better contribution than most strikers we sign will manage. His record for Ross County hasn’t been too dissimilar this season in that he got a really good start in the league cup. But 12 league goals so far is good going for a team in their position. Thought he was outstanding yesterday.

Yes, everyone remembers that MacLaren and Kamberi came in and scored 17 between them from January of that season, but we were already in 4th when they arrived and Stokes and Murray had scored 25 between them before they both moved on in January.

His return for County this season is superb as you say, and he still looks like he’s improving at 32.

Could we do any worse? Honestly this current crop of Hibs players is the worst I can remember in terms of those who I like the most. Collectively, they are just so unlikeable.

They were both benched for Shaw before the end tbf.

You only have to go back a couple of years to find a less likeable Hibs team, on my opinion.

Under Maloney, with Mueller, Jasper, Melkerson, Henderson and Scott all playing regularly.

When you actually think about the squad back then, Maloney was up the creek without a paddle.

It was a stroke of genius that led to our best run of form in years. Kamberi and Maclaren were big upgrades at that time

And Murray would be a massive upgrade on vente and le fondre for me. Vente might come good I hope so cause he cost a pretty penny. Not to say either are complete wastes of a jersey either, I rated Murray highly and still do. But the gamble did pay off in the short term with macca and kamberi.

Agree think Maloney was treated very badly. A bit like Monty would actually have given Shaun a preseason and summer window. You either stick with a manager and give them a proper chance or you don’t imo. Completely get that isn’t a common view at present

Did Scott Allan also join in that window?

I understand from a mate who has a son at Queens Park that Murray is up near to Inverness for family reasons so unlikely to be back down any time soon.

Rumour up here is that he's keen to move to or near his hometown of Dundee with it being 50/50 on that being Dens or Tannadice. I'm told Arabs wanted him in January as a back-up striker but couldn't get him.

What he gives is work-rate and effort in abundance, qualities lacking in a number of our players. At 31 or 32 he's still got pace and an eye for goal and I'd take him as an off-the-bench / back-up option at Hibs.

I didn’t see anything from Maloney at all, I’m afraid.

Don't think he'd be any sort of back up and he'd start in our current team ahead of our 700k striker. No question.

SM runs his socks off in matches and his physical conditioning is superb. Hibs should approach him IMHO.

If Murray ends up at either of the Dundee clubs we will live to regret it. He is an obvious and actually achievable signing for us to make, something Hibs never seem to be interested in.

Bain went to Celtic, We took Allan, and Dundee took Murray. Incredible business at the time. 6 goals in 22 games wasn't terrible but he wasn't good enough back then and rightly moved on to make way for better players. Hes had a good year this year but in the time hes been away he hasn't done anything of note. Typical ''we should've kept him'' when another bang average player comes back to us and plays well

[Allant1981]

He is clearly playing well for county but I hope we aiming higher than Simon Murray if we want to progress

Where I am too. Decent player having a more then decent season, but not one I think one we should be chasing after, nor do I think we will be.

And that’s before getting to the fact .net usually collectively ****s itself at the thought of signing someone who’s already been at us and/or is over the age of 30.

I still remember loads on here saying he was not good enough for hibs.

To be fair, he is a better player now.

Yep - he wasn't good enough when we got rid

He done well at QP but last season was his best by miles

Can he keep that up? If he was a few years younger I'd take a punt but wouldn't be overly fussed now

And this is why we need to ditch the ego when it comes to signings. Lots on here would be astonished and delighted if we signed Miovski and yet it’s Murray that would likely be written off as a cheap option.

[Libby Hibby]

Murray would be a great addition to this squad.
