Chefki Kuqi Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Given all the warm words since this has come to pass its frustrating that it's only a loan, but it provides some hope that he may even surpass recent loan stars Nathan Wood and James Scott in his stint at Easter Road. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glen Sannox Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Very enthused about the signings. I was in my local tonight, where the resident Alberts and Sevconians were suggesting that Norwegian football was Toytown. I’m not sure what it is about Scottish people……..but there is nothing more tinpot than Scottish football! Only Scottish politicians run it a close second, not Norwegian football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuine Hibs Fan Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Probably shite as it's a Hibz Newz type twitter account but seen something suggesting 3 mil plus a player (Mikey Johnston suggested) for Boyle from Celtic. Honestly not sure tbh. Certainly not now, most important player and all. But he's probably the only asset we can command a good fee for at the moment, and at 29 in a few months could he drop off quickly? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have made more sense in Summer when we needed that type of player more and would have been cheaper. Can’t see us forking out the cash being claimed for a guy that age that relies on pace and has had a bad knee injury. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Angelo Barksdale Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 3 mil plus Mikey Johnston is a great deal imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chefki Kuqi Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I wouldn't be opposed to cashing in on Boyle despite him being our best player. I think we need to get into the habit of cashing in and reinvesting when the time permits, and as said for a footballer who relies on pace coming to the end of his career then it might be the right choice, if a hard one. Combined to the fact that Celtic are likely to finish above us anyway, regardless of Boyle, I wouldn't begrudge it. Whether Johnstone is the right player to come the other way I'm not so sure. Looking further back it was rumoured Christie would have been the makeweight in the McGinn deal. Whilst McGinn's career has certainly benefited more from going to Aston Villa than was likely at Celtic, it's likely we could have benefited more by having Christie up until this point than we otherwise have. Albeit if we ever see anything for McGinn's sell on clause that may change my thinking, but I reckon he's too happy at Villa for that to be in the thinking at this point in time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoose Rice Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 That deal would be too good to be true. Probably money and MJ on loan for a year or something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
