The Grass Is Greener. Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 2 hours ago, conboyhibs said: I can't see us doing that when we have 3 pretty expensive right backs in the squad already. Any idea on when James is due to return? I think Whittaker will play there until the crocks return. Vela also played quite a lot at right back under Lennon at Bolton so we have the option to use him there. I agree, spunking more cash on another RB now when we have other positions desperately needing improved would be silly. I’m not happy about Whittaker starting games at all tbh but needs must. Any idea how long James is out? Worrying times for Gray. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listening to Heckingbottom's press conference it sounds like he hopes James will be available for selection after the international break which is good news. He looks like one of the better summer signings. Some reports suggets that we are in the market for another defender.. while we have been poor at the back, I'm disappointed that we aren't investing in the final third. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game of opinions but I have not been impressed by James as well. He seems well out of his depth. Whittaker will be fine for the odd game but we really need a new right back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snifter Pee Rot Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 James deserves a proper run of games before we even think about another right back, no? I want to see the Swedish boy paired up with Vela and Allan in behind Flo, this is what I'd build around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee-Bey Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 We don't need 4 right backs. The three we already have will probably be among our highest earners. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grass Is Greener. Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 I think James has looked most likely to nail down a starting place out of all the new signings. Was gutted when he got injured. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dosser0209 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Excuse my ignorance here, but as an outsider I find it slightly baffling that people are calling for “heckys” head. I get it’s not been a particularly great start however surely he deserves time to turn it around considering how he turned hibs’ fortunes in the 2nd part of last season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However as you often find once they have their first pre season and bring players in it becomes apparent they're actually fairly average. Still it could be worse, they could have the specky w**k in charge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee-Bey Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 There's no chance he's going anytime soon imo. He'll be given at least the next two games and if we somehow manage to get a result in the derby, he'll be here for the foreseeable future unless we completely fall off a cliff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both boards better do the necessary before the derby. If 20000 fans are going to have to peek at the match through their fingers, hoping their hated rivals hand them a right good skelping, then the Royal Edinburgh is going to be bursting at the seams. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
