Ten Caat

May and Cosgrove start. Harrington on the bench Feeling its a 3-5-2 but could be anything knowing Mcinnes. Fuck it Gleeson and Ball centre halves, Devlin on the wing and Consi to partner GMS up front. That'll throw the peh munchers

Id rather sign no one than Greg Stewart

It was my brother that texted me it. But yeah just took a look on there and its there large as life. I never knew bro was on the Hat so now going to have to do some sleuthing to find out who the little shit is on there lol

It is indeed Diamond......1 year contract apparently

Holy phuq You won't believe who is now rumoured to be joining up to solve our defensive crisis.... If this one is true McInnes can GTF I'll let you have a guess before revealing the name.....

So bought out of administration before being liquidated? Ah well at least they can say with certainty that they are the same shop as before....

It's quite widely known he is indeed a Dandy but Edinburgh is also a lot closer to his family than Lisbon is. He's one that represents a huge risk as for whatever reason his early potential just hasn't been realised. Perhaps it is homesickness....or maybe he just isn't really affa good. If it comes to pass he will get my full support but if he goes to Hibs then I won't be overly concerned

They might well now reach the group stages of the Europa League thanks to a bizarrely easy draw but won't get anywhere near Celtic in our league. What is worrying is that though they've spunked a fair bit of cash on players who are only marginally better than last season's duds, they are actually recouping it in large chunks on players they paid pennies for....£2million for Windass and £800k for Declan John. We can only hope they don't get any more out the door and that their enormous squad takes it's inevitable financial toll.

If Wright is definitely going to Partick then the Gauld rumour would make sense. However Hibs are now flush with cash and I believe could now top the terms we could offer plus would be more likely to give him a regular starting spot, certainly initially anyway. Agbonlahor? No thanks. He is the epitome of a player who made too much cash early in his career and now really doesn't give a shit about his performance

Tansey is still with us but apparently has been given leave of absence to resolve a personal issue. He is free to leave if he can get hooked up with a new club at any time.

Wigan sign Josh Windass for "over £2million" Hunbelieveable

Never let it be said the Hat doesn't provide good value entertainment..... Next up on our signing quest is.......Isaac Success from Watford. Supposedly in talks with Aston Villa about a loan move but if it falls through we are the back up option.... His Wiki is worth a read

How many midfielders do we actually need?

McLaren I think is better than Kamberi. 6 full Aussie caps and was in their World Cup squad. So not really on the same level as Ball Edit.....And now Lennon has around £1.85million or so if my maths are correct from the sale of McGinn. Even if he is only given half that its still about twice what we have to improve our squad. He's got his front line sorted, defence looks ok so its his midfield I'd guess they want to improve. There are more midfielders around than anyone else so with his budget I think he will. We have £500k to get us a decent striker. NOT convinced we will get a good 'un

Theyve also got McLaren back for another year. Both him and Kamberi would have been an upgrade on our strikers but don't think we even enquired

Nadir Ciftci signing tomorrow Yet another Hat exclusive

Allan has made no secret Hibs is where he wants to be. If the dhims wont let him go now he will just sit out his contract and join next summer. Even if we were to put in a bid I don't think hed want to sign for us

John McGinn signs for Aston Villa. Fee reported around £2.75million. St Boo due 30% of that but still leaves Hivs the thick end of £2million. I'm concerned that Lennon could do quite a lot of damage with that if he is given licence to spend the lot

Not at all....Anderson could well become a first pick fairly soon especially if we don't get another striker in. Just think we have to try Cosgrove/May as a partnership before finally writing them off. FWIW i think Campbell will become a first pick before the end of the season probably ousting Gleeson.

It's all gone worryingly silent on the Hoban situation. Hopefully I'm pishing my pants over nothing but I'm wondering if he has been sent down to Watford for their medical crew to take a look before anything is announced? Even if he is fit I'd still like to see Harrington get a start. It's pretty much the ideal game to do it in and with this being Logan's final year of his contract we have to start looking at alternatives in case he doesn't sign a new one.....remember last time his contract was running down it looked like he was offski only at the very last minute to have a u-turn and sign a new deal. I'd also like to see us try Cosgrove alongside May up top going 4-4-2 with Gleeson on the bench. Again this game along with St Boo next up are the ideal time to see if they work. If not we can then start saying they aint fit for purpose and maybe (try to) move one of them out

Dont say i didn't tell you so... SFA are corrupt bastards

Upside being its now doubtful an English club will come in before their window shuts with a £3million bid giving Wiggy the chance to sell him for less than he is really worth. It's actually also a fairly good time to get injured with the League Cup game after Dundee, Hibs will be a difficult one then Killie at home then its the international break. So should only miss 4 games....could have missed 7 or 8 had it been later in season

Didnt watch it all but I cant say i found her patronising. Very complimentary about us

His name was mentioned on the Hat a couple of days ago guy said we were in for him. He was decent for Hearts last season before getting injured so would be happy with this one if it has legs
