What a great signing he could turn out to be for the Leith lot!

Indeed....

I'm so pleased for them.

[DanielMacBean]

good chance of him tearing up the spl

with benjelloun, riordan, stokes and zemmama they look a real dangerous team.

Would appear Yogi's got a real coup there.

Can see them doing well this season.

[Tichy_Blacks_Back]

Didn't have the greatest of debuts today. Riordan/Rankin training ground free-kicks worked well though with the 2nd a great free from Riordan after Rankin's dummy run.

[TopSix]

Can see him doing well. I lol'd at his suggestion that Yogi may end up managing in the Premiership! maybe managing a club's kit perhaps...

[WYNESS101]

Every time i hear his name i think of him scoring that hat-trick against us

[DornochCaley]

I cant belive they got him. What a buy at a real good price. Bargin!

[WYNESS101]

I cant belive they got him.

Well he went to Falkirk on loan so i guess he would go to anyone really Plus he probably got on well with yogi

There is more too this. From what I've heard Stokes has been having problems keeping himself together and his playing career was suffering as a result. He is rather too much the party animal shall we say and he realises this is no good for his career.

Yogi is well known in football circles to have walked the walk and come through other side. Stokes knows this from his time at Falkirk, and he knows that Yogi can help him with these demons and help him be all he can be..

This is why Stokes has taken a massive pay cut to come up to Hibs..

At least Stokes dosen't have to terrorise our defence this season.

If i recall he scored every goal in every game he played against us.

Bargain! He must of took a big wage cut to go to the hibees, fair play to him.
