HMFC01 Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 ex hearts goalie signs for edinburgh city. all the best 👍 https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/hearts/former-hearts-goalkeeper-completes-move-edinburgh-city-2912001 Quote The 21-year-old has signed a one-year deal having spent January until the shutdown on loan at the Citizens. Mason joins having been released from Hearts where he spent more than a decade but didn't make a first-team appearance for the club, but didn enjoy loan spells at Bonnyrigg Rose, Annan Athletic and Airdrieonians. During his time at Ainslie Park in the 2019/20 campaign, Mason, who was one of seven goalkeepers to play for the club, made five appearances keeping three clean sheets.

Heartsofgold Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 52 minutes ago, OTT said: I would have said Enzo Zidane for the shirt sales, but he goes by Fernandez so thats a no-go Rhodes would be good but unnecessary since we have Boyce and Naisy. Wallace and MacLeod would both be solid signings, likewise Jimmy Dunne All I would say would be expensive. Ethan Hamilton was one you missed. Edinburgh lad released from Man Utd. Worth looking at IMO. Jimmy Dunne just had his Burnley contract extended by a year. He was on the bench for the last 2 games for them.

It's in Gloucestershire and he's has it for a while - he's nearly 32 and has his head screwed on, so my assumption is that its part of his plan for life after football. I get the impression that he's staying (and would like him to) but business is business at the end of the day and if someone is willing to pay us a half decent transfer fee then I would take it. There's a couple of replacements available - first choice would probably be O'Donnell or Marcus Fraser who has just left Ross County. There's also Ryan McLaughlin who is a free agent after leaving Rochdale and has been capped at right back for NI. I believe he’s just built a brand new house in Bristol and the last I heard was his wife and kid was moving down, with or without him. This was 2nd hand info from a boy that attends matches as Mikey’s guest. Sean Clare is the natural replacement for Mikey Smith. I like Mikey and would love to see him stay but football is football.

I just thought it would be fun to throw some names about....maybe even see if anyone is aware if any of these players are actually good......or S***E!! Watched that Luca de la Torre play in a Derby v Fulham friendly or reserves game when I was working down that way recently - he looked quality. I'd love to see someone like him at Hearts. Lloyd Isgrove was a Stendel signing for Barnsley. I remember looking at him in January when I was looking at players he might bring with him and his YouTube highlights looked really good (obviously - always do). He came through the Southampton Academy along with Oxlade-Chamberlain and a few others who have gone on to do quite well. Murray Wallace would be an excellent signing for the squad. Would put him in a similar bracket to Hanlon at Hibs, so probably not quite as good as Souttar/Halkett on their day. Considering he's been at Milwall though, what sort of money would he have been on? £5-6k a week maybe? Lucky if we could offer him half that. I didn't know de la Torre was a free agent so I'm adding him to my shopping list, so now its: Jordan Rositter Luca de la Torre Stevie Lawless Andy Halliday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
