31Dec1966 Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Give it a rest. He's 21, how many games has he played in an English league ? None ? One ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buxtongent Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Why are we talking about bringing in on loan a player who, despite his pedigree, is still totally unproven, when we have just sogned 5 loyal lads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 No one would be talking about this greedy tw@t if his surname wasn't hirst The lad has less than 30 professional appearances at 21 years old Move on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Tibbs Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 10 hours ago, SolihullOwl79 said: I think that although there was some disharmony over the transfer to that Belgian team owned by Leicester, it could be a good time to get him back on a season long loan deal with option to purchase. He doesn't get much if any game time at Leicester. Now could be ideal opportunity for us to get him in the first team line up as number 9. It could be good for all parties! Anybody else have any thoughts on this? Burnt his bridges with our chairman. And I’ve not heard any reports that lead me to believe he’s worth the aggro.

TomtheOwl95 Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 If his name wasn't Hirst nobody would be interested in taking him back on loan next season. Forget him, move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he didn't turn down contract here most people on here would thought he would be a good loan signing for next season, just like they think that James Garner would be. Hirst plays at higher level than Garner and is doing better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hirst's record at actual first team level is poor, he isn't what we need and represents an unsavoury chapter in the club's recent past, not all on the lad himself I accept. Like I say, Sheffield Wednesday need to move on from George Hirst. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I say, Sheffield Wednesday need to move on from George Hirst. Fair opinion. I can't see Wednesday wanting Hirst back on loan or him wanting to come back here. I've seen both players playing U-23 football. Hirst is probably best forward in PL 2 but I wouldn't want him back everything considered. Not because he is not good enough.

Does he not need to be playing proper football though? It seems to me he's in a comfort zone since leaving Hillsborough. He wouldn't be the first to be very prolific at that level but do little at first team level. I agree he wouldn't want to come back here and that Wednesday wouldn't want him.

It is just my opinion, but if they wanted they wouldn't have any problem to set him up with a lower league club to go out on loan at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw him play a preseason game for Wednesday at the Prozac in Chesterfield, before his Dad allegedlly knocked out one of Carlos's coaching staff... Did we ever find out who King David chinned?

Plus, if we need to recruit a group of 4 or 5 strikers, they won’t all ( hopefully ) be seasoned Championship starters At least one will be an untried youngster I would have thought, and if a club were looking to bring in a young striker from a Premier League club, surely Hirst would come under the microscope? I’m not saying we should sign him, although I wouldn’t have a problem if we did, but we may well have to gamble on one or two inexperienced lads with potential Edited July 5, 2020 by gurujuan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james o connor Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Seems like the original poster is either on the wind up or he spent too much time in Wetherspoons yesterday ! Either way , obviously not . George Hirst still will never be a championship footballer . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellis Rimmer Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 To be fair they seem to rate him on the Leicester forum that I saw, obviously they're aiming for the CL so his chances are limited. It's going to be VERY interesting on here when he gets a loan out somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
