This doesn't surprise me and in most probability won't surprise many fellow bears,
that hibs already rate and want to sign rangers midfielder greg docherty, who's currently on loan with them, on a permanent deal in the summer. I personally think it would be a mistake, if we did sell doch to hibs permanently. He's never been given a proper chance and run in our midfield, due to the tremendous form of the likes of steven davis, ryan jack, glen kamara, scotty arfield etc. That's not to say however that we should sell docherty, as i like quite a lot of fellow bears think he has the ability to carve out a career with his boyhood idols rangers. I think with davo coming towards the end of his career he could be davo's longterm replacement. He's a little bit different to davis now, as greg is a box to box very fit,
powerful midfielder with goals in his game.
I think getting his break at rangers and given a chance, doch still can be a mainstay in a rangers midfield. I hope rangers DON'T sell him to hibs, as jack ross rates him very highly and admittedly i do think he would be a brilliant signing for hibs and would be a superb midfielder for them!

I actually think he’s like a young Arfield. I watched the Hibs game the other day and he was one of their best players.

Not sure how strong he actually is tho? Played a game v them was thrown about like a wet sock. Listen i like the guy just don't think he's quite good enough for us. Certainly not starting anyway. Good squad player for the bench. If he wants to play week in week out then imo he will need to drop a level to likes of hibs or go to england.

Agree coop both him and murph not given a chance, big mistake imo. As I think burton and hibs will be looking to grab a bargain.

Sgl I hope the doc does well on loan and hopefully he can become a successor to Davis in the future. I think Hibs are a good move for him right now and hope he comes back better.

I agree Supercoop. I've always thought Docherty deserved a chance and I think the club (SG? ) let's too many players go without giving them a real chance. Jones and Hardie are two others that spring to mind.

Sorry guys - can't agree - - a lot of his passes went nowhere or were intercepted against BSC! he wouldn't get away with that playing for the famous. I don't think he broke sweat and didn't look like he was trying to either.
Although credit where its due his pass for the 3rd? goal was a stoater. (no defence mind! )

Docherty will sign permanently for hibs with Kamberi signing permanently for Rangers all in all makes good sense.

He was playing against BSC!
Likewise with Murphy - he is doing well in League 1. It is all about getting his fitness and some game together.
