I think Gray is a prospect. Will do him good to get some competitive first team games under his belt as he must be getting a bit fed up with the lack of opportunities in the first team at Hibs. Anyone know how young Campbell is doing, haven't heard much about him lately?

Hate to write someone off so young, but I don't fancy Campbells chances of making it with Hibs. He's way down the pecking order for the strikers and young players need to be playing in games if they're going to develop as much as they could. If he was going to make it he would at least be pretty regularly on the bench imo. That hasn't been the case with any of our last three managers. He doesn't have a lot of pace, he's a bit small, and he seems to do a lot of his work away from the dangerous areas. Doesn't mean he won't make it, but the chances are against him afaic.

Damon Gray on the other hand is someone who had a pretty bad injury when he was younger iirc? That sets a player back a bit in their development and when he has came into the first team squad he has not looked out of place at all imo. He looks like a penalty box striker, and if someone has that instinct and a decent attitude they can become a very good player.
