Just as well we did. Rumours of Irvine signing a 2 year deal with Hibs. Will be announced on Friday with the unveiling of their new away strip. Hibs new away strip was unveiled today. Doesn't mean Irvine won't sign for them but will have nothing to do with the kit unveiling too Link to comment

And as NEM said, Milne spoke of 3 and 5 year plans to build a training facility yet delivered FUCK ALL in 25 years in charge, despite comparable wealth. 1 Link to comment

Nowhere near a priority. Two forwards (one a first pick), a fast winger & a left centre half are all ahead of the queue Irvine was without a club for 6 months last season for a reason, so absolutely zero fucks given that’s he staying in Leith.

For Fecks Sake Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Let's perhaps wait and judge Cormack at the end of next season. Been a decent start in my book so still happy to give him the benefit of the doubt until then. 1 Link to comment

RED_JOHN Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Let’s judge the more mouthy Cormack after this transfer window. Let’s give him the chance this window though. He has a big statement that needs fulfilled. 2 5 Link to comment

Rico1903 Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 17 hours ago, SupportmeansSUPPORT said: I see in the paper today that Gauld has been given a week to decide whether he wants to accept an offer of a 3 year contract on £41K a week to move to Vancouver Whitecaps. Also has options in England, Portugal and Spain but the Canadian one would obviously be extremely lucrative for him (6.4 million). An interesting one. Did so little at Hibs playing in our league - I wonder at what point the output from our various ‘root and branch’ review(s) over the years is going to kick in? Link to comment

That was my first thoughts. But also getting 600k off wage bill I guess? Gut is that he’s going to be terrible if I’m honest but we have signed plenty players with terrible pedigree in England and turn out to be massive success so hope it’s one of them! Link to comment

Glass & the club obviously see him as a key signing. Paying a fee for a bloke who’s 30, & the faffing around appealing for a permit. Here’s hoping it’s worth it. Squad still very light though in quality & numbers in places Another 3 needed in addition to Ramirez I’d say. 1 Link to comment

Forgot about that. I’m looking forward to seeing him as this has dragged on. Don’t think no7 has been allocated either so hopefully we get a key creative player in to take that. Creativity improved under Glass but prior to that we really struggled to create any meaningful chances. 1 Link to comment
Don_Corleone Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 So far the signings have been ones that the mcinnes would probably have made - Gallagher and JET and American based from the Glass / Russel influence - Gurr and Ramirez. Jenks maybe has come through Russell’s knowledge from the English setup. I’m still waiting to see Brown’s contacts bearing fruit… he was supposed to have been lining up some players and Cormack made a big deal of how having Brown would help attract players. No sign of that so far. Link to comment
