Technically a Celtic player.

True but it points to nothing being agreed yet

Which no doubt is the case until signed.

***Jim44*** · 17-01-2017 03:18 PM

To some extent, it's probably in each club's interest to leave it to the last minute. Hibs will save a few grand in wages for a couple of weeks and Celtic will use the time to seek out a better deal with another club (that is if Commons is interested ). One club will lose out. We will have lost our man or Celtic will have lost contribution to Commons' wages. One thing is almost certain ............. Commons won't be at Parkhead, twiddling his thumbs for the rest of the season.

No chance.
Nothing in it for Commons financially.

At the moment he strolls about in a Hibs side which is way better than all the other teams in the league.
Even better others do his running and he scores a goal here and there and sets up a few for others.
Kris is happy and the Hibees are happy.

A strolling Kris in a struggling Blackburn side would not be good for either party.

Commons to Hibs a few days before the next league game. Hibs pay Celtic £4K per week. Everyone happy again

Really, no chance Hibs will be paying anything near that.

Thats good enough for me.

Nah, I don't think for a second anything has been agreed, there's too many possible outcomes so discussions are clearly still a work in progress.

I don't think anybody knows what's going to happen at this stage, including Neil Lennon, Kris Commons, his agent, Petrie, Dempster, anyone at Celtic and certainly not anybody on here.

He might sign, he might not but anyone claiming to have inside info is making an educated guess and hoping for the best IMO.

**CRAZYHIBBY** · 17-01-2017 06:53 PM

I was talking to chris earlier and he reckons its a done deal

It wouldn't be that expensive.
If he signs up towards the end of the month that would only be £4k x 18 = £72k
If Lennon sees him as his insurance for promotion £72k won't put Hibs off

Let's all think of the benefit to Hibs!

Common's two away goals have won us six points.

The benefit of his experience and,hopefully, further goals will get us
out of this league as Champions and another great run in the Cup.

Any deal to make sure that he can play against Celtic in the Cup final!

Get the deal done, pronto!!

I'd much rather beat The Rangers in the cup final again

From what I've read on their forums (TCR MKDonsMad), its a rumour started by a Celtc fan but nothing coming out from MKDs about it. Neilson obviously knows about commons but whether he is after him just now is unclear. Couple of fans reckon he'd be a good signing albeit a bit small. Think it is nothing more than wild speculation. They also have noted that he wants to stay with Hibs for the rest of the season, possibly from the Sky interview, but no link on that post.

Rumours are just that I think if a deal can be struck to keep him st Hibs till end of the Season he would be happy with that But he cant sit about and hope that happens so any substantial intetest in him will have to be considered as he isnt going to play regular football at Celtic , and the last five games wil have given him the appetite for this .with the crowds we are getting , and about to start defence of Scottish Cup , and sitting top of the League i would think when you take money out the equation he will want to stay so Celtic hold the cards in terms of what they can do to give him decent pay off to end hs contract

Agreed

Although I nearly collapsed, after reading this post, as no chance to breathe.

A done deal for Commons, I've heard that before somewhere

No point fretting over speculation, just have to wait and see. Hibs will do the best they can to get him in, of that I'm sure. If it doesn't happen and he goes elsewhere then it doesn't happen.

**where'stheslope** · 18-01-2017 03:36 PM

Its always a problem when you take a player on loan and he plays well and fits in.
Now the ball is firmly in Celtics control, they know we want him and he's a good fit in the team, so we have to talk money.
If he's that good, Celtic will want a good pay out and get him off their books so another player can come in for them.

Aye! Derek Johnstone!

**Mikey09** · 18-01-2017 03:44 PM

I can't see Commons moving down south. His family will dictate where he goes and for me that will be Hibs. He will be with us till the end of the season.

***Viva_Palmeiras*** · 18-01-2017 05:14 PM

**Famous Fiver** · 19-01-2017 11:08 AM

Speculation.

If Commons plays against Albion Rovers in the Cup at the weekend it means

a) he can't play for three teams in a season
b) the only club he could play for apart from Celtic is us
c) but he would be cup tied and not available for potential Hampden heroics.

Will be interesting to see if Celtic list him, or indeed, Henderson, Mackay-Stevens or Christie, on Sunday because if any of them come to us they would be cup tied.
