rudi must stay Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 2 minutes ago, Jodami said: We signed Michael Smith and he has been a real success, solid lower league English player, fringes of his international team and a guy who played regularly. That seems a good basis for recruitment. This is another blind gamble though, taking chances on a player with injury issues in a season where injuries wrecked our season. Our signing policy is random at best. definatly, and I think in England you have to put yourself about, it is a tough league. However his injuries are a worry, Smith we just picked up from Peterbrough. Hopefully we can get Aidy White fit and playing regularly, if so I think he could be a good signing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

August Landmesser Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 21 minutes ago, PB21 said: Reckon he won’t be on much money at all. Very low risk signing. If he gets back his form, will be a class signing. The fact Levein said been in dialogue with him for last year suggests he’s been told a deal on table if proves over injury problems. Plus good time to get him in, couple months left of season, gets solid preseason under belt, many games etc. He should be raring to go start of season. Whereas potentially if left longer other teams would be sniffing. Sensible post - you won't last long on here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Treasurer Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Guessing he won't be a top earner so not a big financial outlay. Reading the bit on our website the fact he's been on the club's radar for over a year but has only now signed would suggest he's getting over his injury problems. Won't see him in the first team this season but maybe a couple of reserve games and a chance to get to know the club and be ready to do a full pre-season. I'm not overly excited by this signing but I'm not losing the plot over it either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock ‘n’ Roll star. Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) Might work out, might not. Same as every signing we make. I’ve been disappointed in players I thought were sure things and surprised by players I was initially underwhelmed with, so i’ll wait and see before passing judgement. Welcome to Hearts Aidy. I wish you all the good luck in the world. Edited March 8, 2019 by Rock ‘n’ Roll star. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you’re signing players who haven’t kicked a ball in 2 years, you just have to laugh ? And we seem to have quite few of these players who aren’t getting paid much. It all adds up.

TexasAndy Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Like everyone else on here I haven't a clue how this is going to work out.

StevenNaismith Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 He’s been training with Barnsley for a long time and by all accounts is over his injury problems.

Given that he's currently 27, you've taken his career as starting at 16 years old and he's been out for the past 2 years so your figures are misleading to say the least. It's almost as if you wanted to put the worst possible spin on it. Edited March 8, 2019 by HoGwash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ibrahim Tall Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 White looked a great prospect at Leeds at one point, can't say I'm overly optimistic about signing a guy that's been crocked for the best part of 2.5 seasons though. Given our 'luck' with this type of signing in the past id rather have had a less highly rated but more 'consistent' player I.e. a left sided Michael Smith.
