How can you re-enter something you werent "entered" in the first place. Although maybe JC is playing mind games again. "Yeah that deal is dead", week later, actually its not

You decide

Roy O'Donovan scores a class header against the dirty Dubs. Roy gives a bit of stick to Heary afterwards too, which is always a good thing - Whats all that about then

Well we need a natural goal scorer and he certainly looks like he can score going by his stats.

Less of it

aint the only reason collins was put off by him was his hight

Riordan(01] · 24-07-07, 16:42

Hibs better get signing this striker very soon if its going to happen!

Hopefully a striker that has proved himself a bit or a good young talent..
Naismith Or O'Donovan for Example..!

We have money!

He wouldn't get into St Pats team

**1875** · 24-07-07, 18:19

Based on Merk's comments, why are we chasing him?

Maybe Hibs will sign him. Maybe he'll prove me wrong. But I've seen a lot of him his season, and I just don't get all the hype

Mick McCarthy & Roy Keane were both in Richmond Park a while ago for the Saints v Cork game, neither put in a bid for him after that. In 3 games against us this year he's been woeful. Cork fans will tell you he walks on water though

Thats fair enough though, we need a target man and he wouldnt fit the bill.

**1875** · 25-07-07, 09:02

I read in yesterdays Irish Mirror that Fulham were signing him in November at the end of his contract/ the Eircom Season?

So Corks superstar has secured a deal to make sure they make no money from him leaving

I saw most of the St Pats v Shamrock Rovers game the other night, wee bit unlucky not to win with some poor finishing letting St Pats down I thought.

Yeah, we really should've wrapped it up in 2nd half. Two points lost

nabser · 25-07-07, 13:36

I rate o donovan but collins says he is looking for a 'big powerful striker' so that rules him out,he could do worse then look at jason byrne who seems to be struggling a bit at cardiff and who was without question the best striker in the eircom league before he went to cardiff.

Get out of it, based on what? What you read in the papers

I'm a big supporter of the league here and have seen him a lot, and he's definitely over rated

Can't see Byrne leaving Cardiff. Saints tried to sign him, he wants to prove himself there

Greenmachine · 25-07-07, 14:38

IMO opinion Hibs may be wanting O'Donovan to play on the right as I notice he can play there as well. This could be who Collins wants to replace Scott Brown. Imagine O'Donovan and O'Brien on either side attacking with their pace.
