soonbe110 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Unless he opts for the USA.Off there next week I believe if he doesn't get an offer from Club in U.K. before then. One year contract. Back next summer looking for club over here with no Dev fee needing to be paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siegementality Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 If Berra, Stockton and the two other rumoured signings are it then the season will end around November for Cathro, talk about not giving the man a chance! If I were him I'd be off now, save what reputation I still have. I certainly wouldn't be going into the new season with this squad, I'd leave that to CL given he's the one that has squandered our player budget on crap for the last two years.

A_A wehatethehibs Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 So looks like we're going to be promoting a few more youth team players then. Slots on both wings, right back, centre mid and striker up for grabs. Have we got any good youth players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PTBCAL Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Hobbos and trolls. I did post on the Whittaker thread 10 days ago he was signing for them. Also on Sunday re Polish defender (not striker as most others posted). I also think we are working hard re Stewart but maybe clubs with more money have turned his head???

Hibs have a long way to go to have a bigger budget than us I'm afraid, even with Levein refusing to pay anyone more than he gets. Their turnover was ?3 less than ours in their best season in years. Crowds last season were up from 2016 but not that much to overtake us. http://www.hibernianfc.co.uk/news/6904 Think they pay him back at ?500k a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilary Briss Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 The people wetting themselves about Whittaker not signing should take a look at the re-runs of derby's in 05/06 season. He got ripped a new one in all the games we humped them in that season - including semi. Decent going forward but suspect defensively. Granted, he has maybe improved that side with experience but no great loss IMO. Might have done a job but if he want to got hobos feck him.

To be fair me and JamboGemz went undercover with the knuckle daggers at Ibrox a few years back and Templeton ripped him up for arse paper. Seemed genuinely beguiled by him and we all know that Temps was a one-trick pony. Still think he would have been a decent signing if played at wing back but do feel there is better out there for the money he would be wanting. As an aside, DO NOT ever go into Ibrox unless you are studying evolution and want to see what 15th century man looked like Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are relying on FOH I don't think we'll ever compete I think we're relying upon selling out the new 20k stadium as much as possible, with the high end corporate boxes and hospitality bringing in a lot of revenue, even on non-match days. And a conveyer belt of youth players, some who'll get sold for large figures. Not come to fruition yet, but sounds a more stable plan than relying upon investors throwing money at the club. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point isnt in anyones opinion of the quality or otherwise of the player. I think he'd improve us in the right back area for what its worth but it barely even matters. The point is its a really bad thing if we seriously wanted Whittaker, or any other player for that matter, and he went to Hibs instead. Frankly that has implications I don't like. If we cant compete with Hibernian over players and win hands down, then we've fallen pretty far in the last 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamhammer Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 This thread reminds me of how mental I went when I heard West Ham were selling Trevor Brooking to Arsenal in the 70's. I ripped all the pictures off me bedroom wall and burned s programme I had with his autograph on. Thank ???? there was no internet in those days. IMO the club has a stadium to fill and shirts to sell. We have a very astute businesswoman in charge of the club and I fully expect decent players will be signed in order to ensure we can fill said stadium and sell shirts. Only an absolute moron or hobbit would expect us to start this season weaker than we finished the last one.
