Two weeks ago marked the end of Nick Montgomery's first transfer window as Hibs manager.
The boss brought in the likes of Myziane Maolida and Emiliano Marcondes to Easter Road with the former scoring in his second outing in a Hibs shirt.
However, it is not always so simple for the new signings at Easter Road to come in and hit the ground running. Many have joined the Leith-based club with high expectations placed upon them but the nature of the modern game, with players and managers changing so frequently, that they do not live up to those presumptions.
This does not make them all bad players, only that they could not find a way to contend with the way of life in Leith or the manager under whom they worked.
As we head into the final matches before the Scottish Premiership split comes into effect, here are 25 Easter Road players of the past who ended their time at Hibs with what could have been tales..
17. Glenn Middleton
Proven himself a capable top-flight attacker with St Johnstone and has had his moments at Dundee United, but there was little evidence of this at Hibs after he joined on loan from Rangers. Photo: Ross MacDonald - SNS Group
18. Josh Vela
A popular player at Bolton, with several seasons in the Championship, but he struggled badly at Hibs. Now playing for Carlisle United Photo: SNS Group Paul Devlin
19. Tom James
Another Heckingbottom signing, not bad going forward but the full-back struggled badly with the defensive side of the game. Played just 12 times and was on the books for two years. Photo: Craig Foy - SNS Group
20. Drey Wright
One of the many players to have performed at St Johnstone but struggled at Hibs, was once booed on to the park by his own fans at Easter Road. Photo: Craig Foy - SNS Group
