McPake to Hibs (1 Viewer)

Bertola · Jan 22, 2012

Sky Sports news says McPake is signing for Hibs on loan.

Obviously there was some truth in that Telegraph report a few weeks back

Nick · Jan 22, 2012

With a view to full time at the end of the year?

Bertola · Jan 22, 2012

It doesnt say, but i would imagine so

Lord_Nampil · Jan 22, 2012

Mcpakes misses never settled when they moved down so its no surprise to be fair, have no problem with him just a shame he never got a real long run in the side but injury played a big part in that!!!

shmmeee · Jan 22, 2012

Thought he was out of contract in the summer? That's what the CT said when the transfer request story ran. I think we gave him a year extension to get himself fit in the summer.

Brighton Sky Blue · Jan 22, 2012

Hibs have been absolutely dreadful this season in the SPL-finances also pretty tight there so they're not really in a position to shell out for a fee. I can only assume he's moving for geographical reasons as they're stuck at the bottom of that terrible league with little else going for them...

Glen · Jan 22, 2012

He never had the ful chance but won't be missed

MatthewWallis · Jan 22, 2012

Where is this story? I can't find it on their website?

He signed a new contract in August

Read my post again. We gave him a year in August, so his contract is up at the end of this season.

LOUISCCFCPUSB · Jan 22, 2012

He was given another year to his contract that was running out at the end of this season, so his contract is until 2013.

duckncover · Jan 22, 2012

Yeah I saw that pic too.

SkyBlueScottie · Jan 22, 2012

Unlucky with injuries, however I also think Thirn prefers others ahead of him. Best of luck to him.

Brighton Sky Blue · Jan 22, 2012

Will always remember his volley at the Crisp Bowl a few years ago-priceless!

sky blue zam · Jan 22, 2012

good luck to him. Shame he was always injured would've been a great partner for keogh

Had a feeling he was going because on his twitter page he posted a picture of welcome to scotland earlier

He fractured his wrist and will be out for 4 weeks after pressing the "send" button.

@richh87 · Jan 22, 2012

Shame, I liked his no nonsense approach but always injured.

skybluegod · Jan 22, 2012

ummm didn't thorn say that he wasn't going to let him go unless we can get another CB in because cameron is injured??

Can Hermann play CB as well as LB? If he can then possibly when Hussey/Wood get fit, we'd have that base covered?

ajsccfc · Jan 22, 2012

McPake's contract extension was up to 2013 according to the Beeb.

rob9872 · Jan 22, 2012

I imagine we will want a fee but I guess if he is back home, settled and injury free then he will undoubtedly be able to perform at that level and he is in the shop window.

SkyBlue_Bear83 · Jan 22, 2012

Like Mcpake but if it allows us to strengthen in other positions then good, no point in just getting another CB to replace Mcpake imo.

Grendel · Jan 22, 2012

A liability. If some club is stupid enough to buy him good.

AFCCOVENTRY · Jan 22, 2012

I suspect we could be getting another experienced head at the back...

But my earlier thinking was that we only got Herman because McPake was joining Hibs.

Remember we have sisu involved...

Covstu · Jan 23, 2012

i didnt think he was terrible but obviously not showing in AT plans, if he needs to move on good luck to him.

ccfcway · Jan 23, 2012

where was the chap who was saying we would deffo get a fee for McPake,

hmm

hamil99 · Jan 23, 2012

Maybe thorns got another decent loan signing lined up and was told he couldnt hav the money unless he freed it up through a player leaving. Maybe there had been interest in mcpake so thorn knew he could ship him out quickly. Pure speculation on my behalf mind.

Astute · Jan 23, 2012

I wonder if they would say undisclosed if they got nothing for him?

It is only a loan.

Astute · Jan 23, 2012

If he has not gone yet how do you know we are going to loan him out?

The CableGuy · Jan 23, 2012

He's gone:

procdoc · Jan 23, 2012

good luck to him, we'll need him in league one next season!

wingy · Jan 23, 2012

Is it the other Edinborough lot who are having trouble getting paid ,otherwise he'll be back sooner.

ccfcway · Jan 23, 2012

sounds like this open the door to loan number 3

We'll_live_and_die · Jan 23, 2012

And it's bye bye Jock the Crock, away he goes.
Up north in scotland, where nobody goes.

He'll be back injured in a couple of weeks.
