Bigbrbairn Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Very nice. The Roy of the Rovers was near the mark! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Duck Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Very much liking that. No collar, sufficient red, stripe reminiscent of last years away strip. Tick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HopeStreetWalker Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 12 hours ago, Proudtobeabairn said: Tait on loan looks like the only way he's coming back now as Hibs have confirmed he's still under contract. Gray might want to see if he can kick on pre season so could be later in the window if he does come. Sneddon a bit meh as others have said and the Thistle fans reviews suggest he's a bit flappy at crosses which we've had a lot of over the last few years and could do without. Hogarth has potential and is a good size for a keeper, hopefully he'll improve the more he plays. Could do with 1 or 2 mouthwatering signings. At the moment it's looking very much a mid table season, consolidate and go for it in year 2. I think we're still glaringly short of a striker to challenge MacIvor and Tait (and if not Tait then midfield cover for Hendo/Spencer). Having said that would still like to see what Alfie could offer as a loan striker rather than a late sub out wide. As I posted my Hibs contacts said a few weeks ago they would keep Tait. Looks like the new management have the same opinion. Ample helping of humble pie for the individuals who rubbished the post. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 I still see a slug instead of a carrot on the Falkirk shirt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understated and all the better for it. Blue tops, White shorts, Red socks - that is a Falkirk strip. Good to see no red shoulder flashes. 2nd strip White tops, blue shorts, White socks From that plenty of options to mix and match to avoid colour clashes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blame Me Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 I'm neutral on the new strip. Will wait for the away launch at end of June/early July before deciding whether I'll purchase one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed They are definitely going to keep everyone on that list, run with a squad of 40 and make no new signings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if Mcglynn will wait it out until David Gray has decided what to do with tait (after pre season) and see if we can get him on loan. Or just sign someone else in the next couple of weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going out on loan does not make commercial sense to Hibs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Kinnear Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 (edited) I like that strip and think a white top with the same design with a blue stripe, blue shorts, white socks for an away would be cracking. Edited June 11 by Harry Kinnear 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Had a feeling that with Tait under contract/new coach in place he (with others) would get a clean slate. If that’s the case and Tait shines, my guess is that we won’t see him back in the NB. If this is how it pans out, it’s a difficult one for JM as Tait was stand out with his overall play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going out on loan does not make commercial sense to Hibs. It all depends on whether there’s interest in him. Going on loan may be the only offer hibs get with a portion of his wages subsidised. For me he was our best player for the final quarter of the season, but other clubs may choose to take into account his performances at other clubs and supposed off field issues that fans of other clubs gleefully informed us of when he signed. Personally I hope other clubs do take that stance and Tait knows JM knows how to get the best out of him so hopefully we see him back sooner or later 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 I haven’t watched Tait through his whole career so this might not be 100% accurate but the impression I have got of Tait is that McGlynn is the only manager who has managed to get the best out of him. With this in mind I think very few, if any clubs would take him knowing that it takes a certain type of management to get him to perform at his best. Obviously football isn’t as simple as that but we just need to wait and see 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long Suffering Bairn Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 (edited) I am old, I got mixed up. At least I didn't forget I support Falkirk, not yet anyway. Come on the Shire, I mean Bairns. Edited June 11 by Long Suffering Bairn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've got about 25 first team players under contract as it stands and that's before any new signings. The retained list doesn't necessarily mean players are in the managers plans. We've got Jordan Allan on ours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
