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 Originally Posted by scoopyboy

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

First signed. That would tell us the date his initial loan period should end Originally Posted by Hermit Crab

Ah I thought the poster meant he wasn't aware he'd signed on loan and was asking about a deal until the end of the season.

Absolute steal if we get him for 10% of his wage.

Maybe my illogical logic but
Petrie is an accountant.
Attractive bids are made.
He sees the pound signs.
Thinks Hibs will be promoted without McGinn, and possibly Cummings, if he can get a short term sticking plaster, Commons.
Takes the money.
He has got previous.
He has got one huge issue to sell it to the fan base especially the newly signed up season and half season ticket holders, so I hope I am completely and utterly wrong, but can't get rid of the niggling thought.

He would have a mutiny on his hands if he did. Leanne would not accept it for one. Originally Posted by Famous Fiver

Problem with this scenario is Petrie is purely a figurehead and all dealings are done by LD. Originally Posted by Famous Fiver

Maybe not promotion, but he sold Gaz just before the SC semi v Hearts. Originally Posted by MWHIBBIES

We all know how that turned out.

Would be nice to have Commons until the end of the season if we can do it. I'd rather just keep the squad we've got than negotiate with any of the named players on this thread though.
I can't believe one or two have suggested selling Cummings in order to throw the money at wages for an unfit Kris commons on a loan for 4 months. Regardless of how much you may have it in for JC, that would be the worst piece of player business I've seen from Hibs.
Hopefully we come to an agreement not dissimilar in terms of wage percentages to the one we've had for the past month, and Commons remains a hibs player for the rest of the season.

After the Reception he got just warming up V United ,the Board arent going to score an og amd sell him At least not in this Window
Cummings is on a scoring run and thats what we have needed so again why risk selling in this window
Promotion is the Goal No key player will go imo till tjat is achieved

If hibs sold mcginn or cummings never mind both of them and we failed to get promotion, i think petrie better emigrate.

Unless they threaten to down tools or an outrageous offer comes in (e.g. £10M for JMG), Hibs will not sell either in Jan. To do so, risks promotion and brassing off the biggest Hibs crowd in a generation.
In previous years, the biggest threat would be from Celtic or The "Club Formerly Known as" Rangers. The former doesn't need either just now, the latter has no money.

It really is silly season otherwise known as the transfer window. McGinnis and Cummings are going nowhere as we are only focused on getting promoted. All these made up scenarios are some harmless fun but that's all. One more player in either commons or a n other and that's all there will be.

Honestly we all moan on here about the likes of the Sun and Daily Ranger with their made up stories about Hibs and we have some of our own fans on here making things up?? No wonder this 💩appears in the red tops...they pick it up off here

Let's imagine we sell SJM for 2 mill this window, ( imagine I said, calm down )
£600,000 ish straight to St Midden, that leaves us with 1.4 million. So let's break that down 3 years left on contract and if we let him run out his contract would get ( a guess between £400,000 - £500,000.) development fee not sure if St Mirren would get 30% of this figure as technically it ain't a sell on fee.
So loosing out roughly 1 Mill over three years but having him at the club helping us to get higher league position with more money that will bring in, also more bums in seats if winning games.
So my conclusion is Take the 2 mill ( if anyone is stupid enough to think it should be excepted, from their board) and ram it where the sun don't shine,
Starting price no less than 4.5 mill in my view starting summer window 2018.
Same type scenario for Cummings in my opinion too. So that means that I wouldn't sell either to fund Commons.
