Tommie Hoban

[Guest the shepherd]

Far right reference.

Sorry, I thought it was in reference to the HH-cup breast size, not in reverence to a certain supremacist from Austria.

[Dons79]

Loved Harry Houdini

[Fridge]

Big fan of Hulk Hogan

Half Game Hoban...... @@Dad t-shirt design incoming

 

Half Hour Hoban more like... HHH - It's time to not play a game... Him and Bryson can sub each other as he never makes it past the hour mark...

I doff my cap sir

[V for Vendetta]

Signed until January.

It'll be interesting to see if he's actually fit enough to play in the next few weeks and if he still looks the player he did before his last injury.

Wants a longer deal now,signs are promising for the boy, hope he gets it as long as he stays injury free

“Signs are promising”.

In what sense?

He’s played 20 minutes in a friendly. 

[aberdeen1970]

Except he hasn't even played a competitive game yet.  One step at a time. 

[Dons79]

Signs are promising that we could end up with a player way above our level because of circumstances!, that’s all I meant really!, as long as he stays injury free he would be a fantastic addition as I firmly believe he COULD be one of the best defenders in our league!could easily snap his rizla paper legs as well but if not could get us a nice wee earner further down the line

Aye, all true, especially the “if” part.

I watched his RedTV interview. He comes across as a nice guy. As he says, if he remains injury free he could play at the highest level.

[WesthillWanderersFC]

If any player deserves a bit of luck, it’s him.

IF he stays fit, he’s easily our best defender.

Good luck to him.

The Dalia Lama comes across as a nice guy ,but you wouldn't want him playing central midfield for us, facing up to Scott Brown .

Better odds on the Dalai Lama's knees lasting the full season though.

I hope it works out for the loon but it's just too early to risk signing him for any longer just now. If things are going well in November, probably worth chancing it 

[aberdeen1970]

Aye we're all rooting for Hoban. A classy guy. 

 

Take note McKenna. 

[CityCentre]

Safe to assume big Tommie will be starting tomorrow.

A bit early for that after 1 game.

Let’s wait a few months & review it in November after 15 games or so

[Andy_123]

Strolled through the game, but wasn’t exactly a great workout for him.

The best kind of game for him to come back in though, a shiter where he wasn’t under constant pressure.

 

[Ten Caat]

Probably our m.o.m. tonight but it's still too early to commit to signing him long term. If he can stay fit and remain in the starting 11 then maybe in mid-November we can offer him a deal.

[Tord31]

happy he's back in there

bench for Sunday we shouldnt be pushing it since he's been out for so long

[Sonoftherock]

Hoban is our best player... and he has hardly played any football in about 5 years. 

[fine-n-dandy]

Taylor MotM lol

even among that shower of shite he was mid table at best

[King Street Loon]

Breezed through the game.

Look forward to him (hopefully) staying fit and showing more. 

[Redmist1903]

Unfair and unwise to start him again on Sunday at this stage in his rehabilitation from a major injury. On a shitty plastic pitch too?

As much as I'd like him to be our first pick defender we've got to be sensible with him, we've plenty games coming up, stick McKenna back in for Sunday if he's available.

[Tord31]

The game is at home but it would be sensible to bring McKenna in for him. 

McKenna should play the next two as he'll be suspended for a few after that

Ah, I thought we were away to Livi, I'd still leave him out on Sunday anyway.

[sooth_stander]

Great game last night BUT, he should have stuck that heeder away in the 2nd half.

I agree

I said yesterday that I think Hoban will be rested for the Livi game & possibly the European game.
Playing him twice in 3 days having not played in a year is risky.

Back for Easter Road when we’ll be missing the banned 8 & then he can maybe get a few games under his belt.
