^^^^^^ Absolutely this ^^^^^^
There's a touch of a poor man's Dalglish / Rush about them. Nisbet is arrogant and idle but he's got the big fat erse , decent with his back to goal and can pick a pass.
They look like a front two to me. Pape can come on for a 20 minute cameo when no Fckr knows what he's likely to do

This with bells on.
Hibs for f*ck sake.

Not a surprise, said it already don’t think the guy has ever renewed a contract in his puff…. but Hibs? Hibs? Weird.
Looked very good for a spell when team was playing well but disappeared when team was off it, never felt he ever grabbed a game by the scruff of its neck.
Edit: just saw 4 year explanation. Quite right by us, guy too injury prone. Doesn’t say much for him backing himself to earn further years. Too much hard work Jamie? Think the guy just enjoys flitting around TBH.
I did like him but no real loss given his performances overall.

I am surprised as anyone that McGrath has went to Hibs as its a sideways move at best.
As above I thought he was good for us in spells and a bit meh in other periods. I would have been happy enough if he signed a new deal but he is far from being irreplaceable.
I dont believe that he has only signed for Hibs because they offered him a 4 year deal and we didnt though. I suspect they have made him one of their top earners and we werent willing to.

I was told Hibs had been interested in him last year snd just thought it was shyte.
I've also been told he will be on ?10k a week at Hibs.
No idea if that is true or not, but that level of wage for an above average SPL player is never going to be sustainable for clubs like us, Hibs or Hearts.
I can't believe he's went to Hibs for anything other than stupid money.
If playing for Hibs is the height of his ambition, then we need to aim for better.
Hall Of Fame
Yep agree, they have been chucking silly money about for a while (?10k a week for Boyle etc) so Ive absolutely no doubt theyve overpaid considerably here too.
Its also their AGM tonight apparently, so this is a nice distraction from their horrendous financial numbers for the last year - ?7million plus losses in 12 months.
4 years is just too much of a gamble & commitment for a boy made of balsa wood.
The best ability is availability and he fails badly on that count.
Its Hibs hes joining ffs, if we really wanted to keep him, we would have kept him.
Im betting Jimmy T has the replacement lined up already - next.
Hall Of Fame
If McGrath has managed to get Hibs to give him ?10k a week then fair play to him because he isnt worth that amount.
I would like to think we would pay a player ?10k a week these days but he would have to be a lot better of a player than Jamie McGrath is.
Hall Of Fame
They'll have Boyle, Levitt and now McGrath on at least ?6k+ a week. Good luck to them

Just had email from the club about next seasons, season ticket prices.
They have announced a loyalty window, whereby existing ST holders can renew at last seasons prices by the 31st March.
After this date the prices rise and the usual early bird offer and so on, but nothing about the increased.
I have a feeling they might be steep, before they have announced this loyalty window.
