    Simon Murruy

    How come Hibs have missed out on signing Simon Murray, surely it made common sense to sign a guy who got 23 goals for Ross county last season.this lack of ambition is why I am on the fence regarding renewing my season ticket, at present going into leauge cup ties we have only one recognised striker Vente who has failed to set the heather on fire in his 1st season at ER. I really hope we have a marquee signing lined up but I won’t hold my breath.

    So you aren’t buying a season ticket because Hibs didn’t sign Simon Murray?

    Correct. We are doomed. I think I’ll print off my digital season ticket and hand it back in

    So it’s Hibs and Dundee in for him. Murray wants a 3 year deal, Dundee offering him that. Do you think we should have matched it? Or bettered it?

    Regardless of whether you rate him or not pretty sure Hibs not signing Simon Murray isn't due to "lack of ambition."

    I'd have been more concerned if Simon Murray was seen as a marquee signing!

    Still plenty time in the window left, Murray doesn't really suit what Hibs plans are, not exactly someone we are going to sell on eventually for a profit.

    He’s a 32 year old centre forward and Dundee have given him a 3 yr deal. No chance he was getting that here and rightly so.

    I wish people who "wouldn't hold my breath" would occasionally give it a go.

    We need both. Steaks and burgers. A vegan option would be nice, not that I'd bring back Doidge.

    Planet Queen of the South. Planet Peterhead. Too far for him to travel to be a marquee signing - he doesn't have that in-tent.

    I saw him as a key target for us but no way would I be offering a 32 year old who relies on work rate a three year deal like Dundee.


    Do you think your security can keep you in purity, you will not shake us off above or below. Scottish friction, Scottish fiction

    No one who pays any attention whatsoever to Hibs thinks we lack ambition. You literally mention Vente who cost a fortune.

    Our board are very ambitious. Just incompetent. Not giving Murray a 3 year deal is competent, though. Good decision.

    Exactly that. Year deal, understandable for the club, but I can see why SM has gone to Dundee with 3 years on the table.

    If Hibs had signed Murray on a 3 year deal I would be handing my season ticket back.

    This has to be a wind up surely. Most on here complained he wasn’t good enough for us first time round, but now he’s a marquee signing.
