McGinn is is ace, but he has his limitations. I can't see Man Utd paying the fee it'd take to get him, especially with how wasteful he can be in possession.

If he makes a massive move, I can only see it coming as a bosman signing.

Only thing is I'd said Man Utd's Summer window at this stage seems to be about signing Declan Rice. Given Chelsea's problems they might actually pull it off, but should they fail there will likely be some demand to sign a similar type. 

Not similar in playing position, but in the immortal words of John Hughes a 'guid, hoanest, hard working (British) laddie'. 

I don't think that stretches to £100 million, but maybe a compromise can be sorted out. 

McGinn can be wasteful in possession, United can be wasteful with money.

I was very much in the he's no moving camp but I've almost talked myself round to it.

I'm not sure why you would release a 85-86 replica Hibs shirt, it wasn't a vintage season. For sure Hibs reached the League Cup Final but got horsed by Aberdeen. 

Now, a replica 85-86 Dundee shirt might be a best seller.... :whistle

Respect your opinion Lyle but I have my doubts about that. This is basically a charity match/testimonial and these are appallingly attended generally by every club apart from Celtic and Rangers fans who (credit to them) will turn up at the opening of an envelope that their club is involved in.

Also at the risk of Hibs fans with burning pitchforks chasing me down the street I'll say this. Sauzee was a brilliant player but he means nothing to any Hibs fan under 30. He has been out of contact and stayed away from the club for too long IMHO.

I am pretty much writing off next week. Go for a few bevvies and have 90 minutes of shite in the middle - its like supporting Scotland used to be like !

After that, what is the future?

Maloney surely cant survive.

That first team squad, jeez - there is a lot of dross there. One issue for me is that our CEO appears to have handed out extended contracts to most of them so paying off is going to cost a fortune................but imo its needed.

I think we will lose a couple in the summer, inc Porteous and maybe Doig.

We really need an entire new back 4, at least two more direct midfielders, and a couple of forwards in the mould of that Boyce and Simms (both of whom played their positions well today).

Thing is, all of that (and we probs need more tbqhwy) will cost a bundle. And after today and next week, ST sales are going to disappear - we will be below 10000 I am certain.

No idea what else we need, perhaps a new CEO and DoF who know their jobs?

I'm not in the 'Maloney Out' camp, but I'm definitely a bit concerned that almost every step of the hierarchy is new, unproven and hired externally. Bring in someone like Yogi at some capacity - someone who knows the club and reconnect with fans.

Left at the 70th minute the day and the general feeling from all fans that not one of them wants Maloney in charge anymore. 

I’m not even going to bother going for a few bevvies next week before and after the semi even if we win. Just fucking fed up with this club.

Hibernian manager Shaun Maloney has warned his players, after they missed out on a top-six finish in the Scottish Premiership, they are playing for their futures at the club between now and the end of the season. (Scotland On Sunday)
 

Can we change that between now and next Saturday?

Same thing?

Sean Maloney arrived at Easter Road with this modern football philosophy no doubt borne out of the Belgian national team. Football decision makers really fall for this nonsense - Hearts went through this with Cathro and Hibs sadly look as though they have to learn the hard way. They had a very good Manager in Jack Ross - 3rd in table and good runs in Cup competitions. Hardly sacking offences despite a poor run of league form. To deny him his Cup Final appearance was not a very classy decision.

 

I have seen Hibs a lot under Maloney and there is absolutely nothing that leads me to believe that he has some revolutionary footballing methodology. He talks a great game but failing to get in the top 6 with his budget and playing squad is a major failure and it won’t be long until the boo boys are out in force- starting Saturday if their old rivals turn them over at Hampden.

Butcher said the same.

Everything about the club just feels shite just now. I’m not in the Maloney Out camp but I’m not convinced by him either. We need a hell of a transfer window in summer if we’re going to get anywhere next season, no doubt we’ll end up with more shite deadline day loan signings.
