  1. Money, Money, Money. Deal with sky probably set up before he joined Hibs. Skippy will be disappointed.
  2. Given all the considerations eg friendly etc. and also budget / contract I was impressed enough with the trialist yesterday to like to see him against stronger and more competetive situations. Possibly Annan,East Stirling or Stranraer. Him and McHugh are broadly similar type.
  3. Given that it was mostly u20's reasonably happy what we saw today. Team looked better as a unit in the secondhalf.Mcmillan and McLean worked well together in the first with McLean moving inside in the second half. Ferguson looked comfortable on the floor but he and Kennedy were I thought poor in the air. Heneghan is a powerful cb and him and Ferguson a much better pairing. McHugh didnt waste many balls and never ventured forward much, Trialist (13) was a busy player with good passing and I thought his performance just shaded McHughbut that could be because he played a bit further forword with Campbell dropping back. Big disappoints for me was Thomas although mid just behind the striker is not his natural position and Ainsworth who wasted most opportunities that came his way. Finally Moult is not a lone striker,
  4. Not exactly close but planning to go. Was considering going to Abroath tomorrow, checked their website for post code for sat nav, they have KO as 3pm. Stadium/shop will be open from 2.15. Well office closed.
  5. Hibs friendly back? to 3pm on MFC site.
  6. Re Leitch. Looks like BBC are as confused as the the posters on here. One report on youth players moving says "likely to receive compensation" . Second report Lancashire paper says "released by Motherwell".
  7. There is one thing a lot of the posters on this site are good at and that is jumping in with their own version of the facts. Now we have F***** up and it it is Burrows fault. Why don't we wait until the club make a statement about this. One point to consider too is I believe he was U17 last season and probably still classed as an academy player. So who offers academy players contracts?. Academy director Scott Leitch?.
  8. Agreed it says 19.00. I looked at the updated list when updated for the Arbroath game.
  9. Was 3pm orginally and still is according to what i can see on the Well site.
  10. If we were to secure Bannigan, Brill(If fit) and McDonald then I would say that we've had a quietly successful transfer window. Still need a left back,and i am not sure that Bannigan meets my idea of the midfield creator required.
  11. Provided it is not at the expense of skill i am quite happy for a bit of height.
  12. Is leith moving from Edinburgh?.
  13. Other than job title do not see much change.The C.O.O. is responsible for the day to day running of a Company much like a General Manager. Reporting lines may differ though.
  14. You will be expecting that same realism on this forum next
  15. Can't win can we. give players a 1 year contract and it's a wtf. give them 2 /3 year contracts and they don't progress and the comment will be why did we give them an extended contract".
  16. I was about to boast and raise the betting to 50% too late 60% mentioned. I have vague memories of League cup final vs Hibs 1950 I think more vivid memories for obvious reasons of the 52 final vs Dundee. Dalziel High schoolboy aged 14 in the specially reserved stand enclosure. If I had to name a favourite amongst all the talent over the the years for me it would be Charlie Aitken a very talented and graceful Wing Half very often played out of position at Inside Forward. If the last part is confusing to posters ask your dad!
  17. Very few if any. If Sbragia is an example the coaches the Sfa appoint rarely recognise skill and talent.
  18. Obviously you have more up to date information than me. Didn't realise he was being freed!.
  19. Depending on fitness I would like to see Laing given a run to the end of season at fb. In his limited time there I thought he had potential to develop further. Pearson I doubt will be ready. I would hope that some of the young midfielders are given a chance at least from the bench. Not knowing the plans for Ripley and i would expect now that our future is more secure discussions are taking place, there could be an case for giving Samson a chance before the season end.
  20. Simple solution. Write into the contract that when we free them they can't play for any other team. It would also halve the posts on here.

    Relegation

    They suck the life out of more than just the game of football. Here we are sitting fourth and the discussion is whether we can still be relegated. Get a life. (no pun intended)
  22. Played in the right position and given good service he is good enough for the Championship. But please not until the season after next.
  23. Gave it to Marvin for the goal and the fact it came about after some rare skillfull play.
