Is this the bit where certain posters come on to try and explain away Hibs being the more attractive offer and defend the club?

Still feel like this will happen.
Don't think any past animosity between Laugherty and bitter Lennon would scupper him going there. With few exceptions footballers make choices based on money and the potential success that's pushed at them, hatchets get quickly buried for as long as the going's good enough. Lemon can talk of past success and that he's doing the same at hibs. And that IC over the road is untried and had shown relegation-level abilities ("he couldnae get a 65-cap Greek tae play - whit chance had he goat wi a useless lump like you ken?"). Don't really see what we have to offer right now tbh until we change a few things.

It should be a no brainer for him if these are his only offers, unless we are offering him shite pence.

If he signs for them he'll get John Wilsoned at the first home derby

Reports are Hearts are confident of getting his signature before he meets Hibs
06-28-2017, 09:22 AM
That's the way it should be, tbf. He shouldn't leave Tynecastle until he signs a contract.
It's almost at the point where Hearts need him to sign - if he goes to Hibs and signs there it's not just the embarrassment for supporters and the one-upmanship, but, as others said, it's a sign of the times and indicates to other players which club has the superior finances and opportunities. Before people say 'they are newly promoted and we are established' - the logic doesn't work because it's not the league placings that players look at, it's the facilities, coaching, and opportunity for success. If players are looking at both and picking Hibs then that should concern people.

See if the club actually fuck this up man

Someone saying we offered 3k basic and 2k appearance whereas the shite offered 5k basic
06-28-2017, 09:27 AM
Let's be fucking honest, hibs will have made an absolute fortune from the two cup runs (and win) that Neilson handed them then obviously clueless Cathro.
It's no surprise if they can offer more money. Fucking ridiculous.
06-28-2017, 09:27 AM
Maybe we're in a bad moment
06-28-2017, 09:28 AM
The thought of having a chance to sign a quality player at this level, and instead ending up with cole stockton

They'll have made enough to cover their losses from being in a pub league for years. If they are chucking 5k a week at Lafferty then fair play, we could spend that better elsewhere imo.

If they're offering £5k basic then good luck to them
06-28-2017, 09:38 AM
I'm very confident he'll sign.

Weve actively courted two big players under Levein, Gilks and now Lafferty, if we fail miserably to land either then serious questions need to be asked.
