The Ox is off to Southend Utd and Jordon signs a two year contract! - 0762 - 04-07-2016
So Lenny's 1st team squad is gradually taking shape and the Ox leaves while Forster stays for at least another two years. I think the goalie's exit was inevitable as his form in Championship matches was not consistent enough compared with other goalies in the same footie league. As for Jordon? He should be a good addition to the current squad of players although I thought he wasn't too defensively clever in Plymouth's play off final defeat v AFC Wimbledon!

Aye 0762, only on for 5 minutes and his only input was to give away a penalty!

Don't see Jordan Forster playing much as I think Hanlon McGregor & Fontaine are better player but in saying that he's a decent defender. As for Oxley not bothered about him leaving HFC got told a wee story about him he was a decent shot stopper but cross balls was his downfall as for the the story apparently he had a problem focusing properly with the contacts he used to wear.
Don't no how much truth is in the story but thinking about it his form it makes sense to me. Hope the Polar Bear gets offered terms at least he bosses his box and his defenders.

The roly poly goalie played a major role in us winning the Holy Grail with that awesome display v Dundee United in the semi-final! That standing ovation by all Hibs fans at Hampden will always be remembered as well as that decisive pk shoot out!
Whod've guessed it was a prequel to us humping Rangers and lifting the Scottish Cup in the final eh! Hibs footie history in the making.

Speculation that Stubbs is showing interest in Cummings despite his comment he would not cherry pick any Hibs players. ( stupid comment to make as he didn't know what the full situation was at Rotherham and it might be one of his options to get the best side there)
Still feel if Cummings was staying he would have done so by now so feel the rumour may well have legs.
The Millers fans can get used to him throwing himself to the floor every few seconds and claiming foul to the ref. The problem with Cummings is that he is not yet as good as he thinks he is and another year at Hibs would be of benefit. Pleased if he stays but won't lose any sleep if he goes.
Wish Oxley all the best as it sounds as though he may be off to Southend , not his greatest fan but he gave Hibs his best and did manage to time waste half the game at ICT in our cup run.
Although I think he failed to turn up yesterday for talks with Phil Brown, manager of Southend ( ex Hull City who signed him before) so maybe he will stay. 
Logan I think will depend on how fit and trim he can get. Doubt if Lenny will want him based on his shape and fitness last year. Is he still under contract at Leicester or have they let him go and is now a free agent. With so much speculation on other goalies at East mains at present I don't think Conrad will be there next year. He will leave as an absolute legend having played only about 5 -6 game for us.....must be a record. Thanks big man.

TBO more surprised he's not been in for John McGinn

Dagnall and farid have gone as well apparently.
RE: The Ox is off to Southend Utd and Jordon signs a two contract! - 0762 - 06-07-2016
No surprise re both exits hibeejim. Dagnall never scored goals from so many promising scoring positions when he played in Hibs matches. That was clearly a problem. As for Farid, his long recovery from such a nasty Achilles injury was a failure and I wonder if he will ever fully recover from this injury.

Logan and KT to be shown the exit door as well.
Looks like lennon is having a bit of a clear out.
ex raith goalie ross laidlaw joins up. Apparently he will be back up for our new keeper...very likely to be rogers.

A 6'4" goalie and he should be a decent addition to the Hibs squad of players!
I'm curious to see what striker(s) Lenny brings in as 'time is of the essence' and that position must be resolved asap.
