Escobar PHM Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 15 hours ago, Finlay James said: Mainly because we are a much bigger club than Hibs. Also, he will soon hit a plateau at Easter road and go no further but with Hearts, his chances of becoming an even better player are heavily increased. Its a no brainer. I wouldn't say we're much bigger. Bigger in the sense of our historical record over them certainly, but the attendances and revenue generation and more importantly for a player the wage being paid, are in the same ball park just now. Mcgeogh wont be moving from Hibs to Hearts. It would make no sense for him whatsoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
