    You could argue the one given to Megwa, which wasn’t pre MacKay, was bizarre.
    The exception to the rule. You can only imagine he isn't on a significant salary, but still it seems like madness to offer him such a lengthy deal. I have a feeling we saw the hand of Ian Gordon at work on that one, before it understood it was getting it's fingers burned with every deal it signed (it scan be filed alongside the extended deal for Delferriere).

    Mon Hibs get the pen out

    I have no doubt the club are going all out for Triantis but we really need a couple of strikers in the door aswell. Replacements for Gayle and Myko and also a contingency for Hoillett if he dosent resign. I personally don't have the faith Youan can step up to take that role. 4 weeks out from our European game i hope we will see folk in the door this week or early next week.

    Buy nothing online unless you check for free cashback here first. I've already earned £2,389.68!

    Considering we could make 5/6 times that from his potential sale, its a no brainer IMO.

    he better not have lied to me, he thought it's a great deal but i agree re that figure

    Wonder if any deal for Triantis will be announced after 30 June so it’s in the next financial year?

    Come on. We'll sell him in the last year of his contract for 750k. Spending that sort of money is never a no brainer for hibs.

    It would of been a no brainer signing Leigh Griffiths from Wolves when we had the chance.

    I wondered about that, I’m fine with it as long as it is 100% happening

    If we are signing him surely they want him in for the summer camp

    The club were justified in signing him at the time and the pedigree was there to go fairly big on him. If you put an unnamed transfer target with his CV again in front of me this summer I would hope we went for it. I also agree that there's still a player in there as shown by his spell before us and his loan last season. The failure of his time at Hibs exists solely in the 12 months he was actually here and the variety of reasons that can be attributed to it.

    I genuinely hold no ill will towards Dylan Vente and think a lot of what the club/managers did that season didn't set him up well to succeed. But there can be no doubt in my opinion that he was a flop at Hibs. The only way you can argue it wasn't is if you want to look at it from a budget perspective. We have maybe came out even or a slight profit when everything is considered. But in sheer footballing terms we signed a guy for decent money and he returned nowhere near enough in terms of goals or even general performances in a season that cost two managers their jobs and we finished bottom 6 again.

    It was a big move from the club that flopped and the only reason we're all not upset about it is because we haven't had to write it off financially. I suspect if had to release him at some point this window or next summer for free instead of getting a fee we would all view his time here a little different.
    I just think the Sun headline in referring to him as a flop striker is misleading in it didn’t work out at us was more down to other circumstances rather than the players ability. It wouldn’t surprise me if he performs well again and maybe gets another move earning us some more money hopefully.

    I feel folk are just getting precious over it because it's another "media are nasty about Hibs" when in reality all they've said is what most of us have been saying for the last year now. I'm sure it's of no concern to him what he's described as now, he's gotten his move and his career will be set up nicely for him going forward so hopefully he keeps doing what he's done in Eredivisie so far.

    Would Nahki Wells fit the experienced striker mould we seem to be buying in to these days?

    If we've singed Triantis, per the Gers source above, is that singed as in sung, or singed as in "we've taken him down the Turkish barbers for a singed flame finish"?

    Could be both.

    These are the sort of things only quintessential clubs know, I suppose

    Did the same thing not happen with David Platt or am I mistaken?

    The expense would be recognised when it is incurred, not when the cash changes hands.
