    Commons - any update?

    Any update on whether or not we are keeping him? Am I right in saying that the loan deal expired today?

    Is he still training with us?

    Expires on the 15th, so he'll be available this weekend.

    Lennon said in an interview after the United game that they'd be discussing it with Celtic this week.

    Thought it was the 10th myself. Was hoping that it was maybe some technicality than Hibs couldn't say anything publicly as that would breach the emergency loan rule and they'd have to wait until tomorrow until announcing any extension.

    Pretty sure Lennon said in a post match interview at the weekend that Commons' contract expired on 10 January

    Keeping him until the end of the season would be good, but he's on £20,000 a week.

    When did he sign? I thought the emergency loan needed to be for at least 29 days

    He signed on the 16th. So, if the emergency transfer was for the minimum period of 28 days (max 93), the loan expires on 13 January.

    First signed. That would tell us the date his initial loan period should end

    Not entirely sure how relevant his wages are to be honest. Celtic still have to pay him, they don't need to play him, I don't see wages playing much of a part in it.

    Taken from the BBC website

    Celtic midfielder Kris Commons has joined injury-hit Hibernian on an emergency loan until 15 January.


    Lennon said in his interview that they'll be going back this week to have discussions with Celtic and hopefully get something sorted.

    Oh he has, that's why he played against Morton, Raith, Falkirk and Dundee Utd.

    The poster was asking when he signed for those games.

    He might well have, my question would be does Neil Lennon know?

    AFAIK it's Leeann and George that deal with that side of things.

    For me, no deal if he's looking for any more than the rest of the team.

    You are truly mental if you think that is a good idea in any shape or form

    Sell the one player on the books guaranteed to score goals to fund a short term loan. Aye right

    Fwiw it won't come to that and we will keep both

    Hibs also won't be paying anything like even 3k of Commons wages

    We will not be paying any sort of money like this, it'll be a percentage of that falling in line to what we can afford, we'll pay £2-3k while Celtic pick up the rest, that's how loans work.

    We won't be paying much of his wage at all, but it makes sense for Celtic to allow us to pay a proportion of his wage rather than have him sitting in the stands every week while they are paying his full 20K wage.
