  1. The Bobby Robson documentary on Netflix is pretty good. I think One Night in Turin is still on Amazon Prime. It's about England at Italia 90, has a tremendous soundtrack and ends with them going out on penalties. What's not to like?

    If you like motorsport, Drive to Survive on Netflix is essential viewing as is Uppity about Willy T Ribbs.

    For stuff that isn't documentaries, Darkest Hour was good as was, surprisingly, Peter Rabbit 😂

  2. A silly question but I'd appreciate a sensible answer from someone I don't have on ignore (so that wipes out about half the posters on this thread).

    If Kibble's involvement leads to increased use of facilities, as is mentioned in the documents, are they entitled to a percentage of the increased income or does it all go to the club?

    Basically, is their involvement purely to get experience etc for their staff or will they be benefitting financially as well?

    Quite disrespectful of Jack 'SMTID' Ross to broadcast his discussions with St Mirren about Paul McGinn before a deal has been concluded... here's hoping Paul does a Goody, talks to Hibs and then decides to stick with the Buddies and Jack is left looking a little less gallus.

    Yeah, imagine answering a question you've been asked about a player whose manager has already told the media you've made a move for him.

    What is the Mullen PFA situation?

    His name is/was on a list of players available for transfer or looking for clubs on the PFA website.

    I wonder if Ross means he found the talks about McGinn encouraging rather than being encouraged to sign him (which is the sort of thing I'd expect from the old board). Either that or we have a great replacement lined up or other potential signings coming in if we can free up some cash.

    If not it's a bit odd. 

  5. As much as Flynn has done well, I really hope we have another rightback coming in if McGinn goes. Would rather someone who naturally plays there, plus it would mean Flynn can go back into midfield now Magennis is out.

    Fair play to Paul McGinn if he ends up at Easter Road. He's a good player for a bottom six club like ourselves but not sure he's good enough for Hibs. Guessing Ross sees him as the best, most reliable, affordable option at such short notice.

    Looks great, would be fantastic but almost certainly won't happen. Lost count of the number of similar plans I've seen for Paisley and other Scottish towns that have come to feck all.

    Would be wonderful if this bucks the trend but won't get my hopes up.

    Terribly sad, such a young man.

    I wonder if this this lad was the son of Bobby Archibald who attended Foxbar Primary at the same time as I did (pre-1966) ?

    I'm sure one of the articles I read earlier mentioned his dad was called Bobby and had played basketball as well.

  8. Don't know much about Oli Shaw but quite happy to miss out on him if it would have been a six figure fee. Imagine the meltdown from folk on here if we spent that on a Hibs reserve.

    If he goes on to bag a shedload of goals for Ross County then fair enough but it's a bit of a gamble if they're spending that much.

  9. E-mail about the latest monthly spend. I'm going to predict bazil will be vociferously in favour and LPM will be vehemently against.

    Is there anyway I can schedule this post to reappear every few months for the rest of time?

  10. Vague memory of him playing there in a home game, think it was under Rae or Murray. May have been hooked before half time?
    It was against Livingston, he gave away a penalty for booting Hippolyte and generally looked about as comfortable there as you'd expect.

    I think we had six or seven different players at right back over the course of that season!
  11. I have the attention seeking moron on ignore but I see from posts being quoted he is raging at the thought of us signing Wallace. For that reason, and that reason only, I hope we sign him.

    Actually, scratch that. I hope we offer him a deal but someone like St Johnstone swoop in and sign him instead. The seethe from a man angry that we've missed out on a player he didn't want us to sign in the first place will be quite the thing.

    Not sure he's got the legs to play Jim's game, but he definitely offers something different. I'd peg him as an alternative to Andreu rather than trying to play him out wide.

    Aye, he'd probably be more suited to a central role. Would be very surprised if he comes back but just a funny coincidence that they mentioned the Totally Football League Show podcast yesterday that he'd had  a fall out with his manager and then today someone on here suggests we might be looking for a winger.

    Would love to have him back, we would have been bottom without him last season.
