Hibs join the race for Don Cowie

[Sir C the 3rd]

Don wants to stay, his agent wants him to move.  The likes of Falkirk, Killie and St.Mirren pay a basic wage around ?300 more than ours,  so unless he gets that his agent WILL persuade him to move.

[MissICT]

we have to offer him a proper contract!

I can't bear to see another caley player move there!

We should be looking to see if there is any way we can match these teams for all our players as we should be competing with them in the same range of available players ..... that, to me, would be far more preferable than splashing any cash we might receive from the Niculae transfer.

Having said that - I believe ICT have always had better win bonuses than some of the teams mentioned so if the team does well - and therefore earns more place money, the players get more so it may average out.

I would have been surprised if Cowie hadn't wanted to kep his options open at this stage but he's a Highland lad who seems generally content with the club so I don't think we should assume that he will be off at the end of the season by any means.

[AJS]

Hibs dont need him.

Theyve got enough midfielders as its is.

Only thing that worries me there is he's mates wi Rankin and Donald Park.

[Yngwie]

There are rumours though that Mixu wants to replace about half the team.

[starchief]

Surprised the Hibees are so down about their chances.  Mixu's made some very astute signings.  With his success in Finland and Cowdenbeath (IIRC), I'd be looking forward to next season if I were them.

Getting pumped 3 - 0 off Clyde doesn't inspire confidence!

[CaleyFan]

Aberdeen are gunning for Don apparently he's bount to go there because he said he's had intrest from Aberdeen and that's why i want to think about my future

[Glen Mhor]

Definitely don't want Don going to the Dons. He's the type of player who will fit in at any club he goes to but we must keep him at the Dump - I think he'll link well with Andy Barrowman.
