How the mighty have fallen. From Hibs captain to out the door in a few short months. Best move for both parties in my opinion.

No big surprise as he has been totally out of the picture under Calderwood. Never thought he actually brought that much to the team so no big loss.

On the positive it looks like CC is trying to free up some space and money - hopefully that means players coming in.

He played well for a spell last season - in fact about the same time as Liam Miller was at his best.

Neither have produced the goods since and it's now time to move on.

seems unfair to me. How many games has he played under CC? While not a match winner he always brought out the best in miller by always making himself available for a pass. What options does miller currently have in midfield? Its no wonder he loses possesion so often

i find this quite interesting, a lot of people said that Miller and McBride were too similar in style, i'm guessing and its only my opinion that CC is sticking with Miller, feels he can perhaps can get Miller back to his form that we all know he has.

The other thing that i'll watch is where McBride ends up, will he go down a division?

CC is moulding his team, fair play to him and fair play to him by releasing McBride early so the guy can get his career sorted out

Has he even played under Calderwood? I suppose that's the only strange thing as CC has given everyone else a chance or two as tries to find his best team but not McBride.

However he sees him every day in training and will have watched him bounce matches too. IMO He adds no attacking threat and I don't think he brings a lot defensively either. He's fine if you want to pass the ball back and forward or side to side in your own half but that's not what we need.

I can't remember him playing at all which is the strange part. What he does offer is making himself available for a pass and being able to retain possession which is everything we need right now

I reckon that Calderwood's tenure as Hibs manager will be defined by the players he moves on and the players he brings to the club both in the current window and at the end of the season. Being realistic (ok, pessimistic), we can pretty well write off this season as regards any sort of success on the park. The best for which we can hope is to stay up and maybe start to see some green shoots for next season.

I recognise that the clearout is essential and has to start somewhere, but McBride? Given that both his and Miller's better games have been when they have played together, maybe Calderwood should have tried that out a few times first, even if only to give one or both of them enough rope. It is not as if some other players on the fringes have not been indulged with numerous appearances to prove themselves (Nish? :greengrin ) since he took over from Hughes. Unless the justification is that McBride is one of the causes of the much-rumoured dressing room unrest?

Plus we hear rumours of Miller being off to Hearts anyway. If it happens, might be the next Paul Hartley, more likely be the next Brian Hamilton I suspect.

Just one of the many average players we have that has put us in the dire position we are in. He may not be the worst at the club but if we are to improve, he, along with plenty others, have to be moved on.

We need 5 or 6 MINIMUM signed during this January window to help drag us out of this mess, unfortunately I doubt we will get them and I therefore fear the worst for the rest of this season.

PeterboroHibee
02-01-2011, 04:00 PM
Think people are being a bit harsh on him, he was an important player for us during those first 6 months when we were flying. Seems to have struggled a bit since then with injury.

If CC doesnt want him then fair enough, and if he is a bit disruptive in the dressing room then he should go, but otherwise think hes a good squad player (at least).

:agree: we're judging him against the rest of that squad. The reality is that for us to improve players of his like; age, wage, position, physicality etc need to be moved on.

If we're getting rid of McBride that's a good thing - it surely means there are plenty of others who are going to face the same outcome?

Not a world beater but pretty good in the role he had when we had Miller and Zemmama flying last season up to Christmas. I think he suffered when the midfield became full of similar players when Zouma got injured.

Didn't have many bad games for Hibs though. Can think of 2/3 midfielders still in the plans that I couldn't say the same for!!

McBride played 29 league games out of a possible 38 last season and of the 9 games he missed through injury we lost 5 of them. Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm sure we finished 4th in the league and qualified for Europe.
This season, McBride has played for 45 minutes out of Calderwood's 11 games and we've lost 7 of them. Correct me if I'm wrong but if St Mirren get even 1 point from their game in hand we're second bottom of the league.
If the new management team think Kevin McBride isn't good enough to make an 18 man squad for a game, after the performances I've witnessed from our midfield, then correct me if I'm wrong but I think we could be heading for the 1st division.
You're perfectly correct he is a footballer and he certainly hasn't lost it and watching the style of play I've seen since CC took over the reins that is probably the reason he's not quoted. McBride's passing game is no good to a manager who doesn't want to pass, but would rather his team hit a long hopeful punt up the pitch as early as possible.
As for preferring "hardmen", I hope not, but for me there's a difference between a hard player and a brave player. It's easy to kick opponents and elbow them in the face but it takes a brave player to get on the ball and make passes regardless of the occasion or circumstances. McBride certainly falls into that category.
Every midfield player at the club has been given a chance to hold down a position in the team except Kevin McBride. Correct me if I'm wrong but 2 wins in 11 games shows that we're not getting it right and unless CC has come with a pre-conceived opinion of the boy it's time to give him the same chance he has given to all the others and maybe then our fortunes will change.

I agree with what your saying and yes he's not been giving the same chance everyone else has had. Think his last game was 4-2 defeat to aberdeen,if i mind right.

He's never played 45 games for any club he's been at either and he's nearly 30. I find that strange.

I actually mean that in a good way. He wants us to try and play or football in the final third. Mcbride tends to like to play it from the back and just keep it going back there. Works well in that type of set up with the right players around but we seemed to be far to slow and deep with it.

I like mcbride but can see why it'd be better for him to move on.

As far as I can see, every single post of yours in 15 months has been defending McBride or bumming him up. You're either McBride, his mate or part of his family.

Did not Motherwell and falkirk fans think he was mince:confused: everything they said about him appears to be true to me. When things are going well he is a world beater and when not he is as useful as liam miller. Maybe that is the problem both are too light weight to play in a team that is fighting for survival. He should have been given a chance but in Millers place not with him.

Greenblood70
02-01-2011, 11:03 PM
I thought McBride put in a decent shift until the injury at St Mirren. Miller seemed to play his best football beside him in the midfield also.

However, when we were found out by other teams as being one paced and one dimensional he couldn't seem to adjust and was one of the worst cuplrits in our non progressive tippy tappy about in our own half until we lose posession style. (although tbf to McBride he was probably told to play that way by Yogi amongst his Dutch/Barcelona nonsense.)

As others have mentoned there's a good few others I'd empty before him, especially that fraud De Graaf if we're looking at freeing up wages.

Not sure where the thought of McBride and Miller being to similar came from. McBride and Paddy Cregg were more or less the same player though and that led to him being emptied. Last year he was my POTY ,up to the festive break anyway. Maybe him and Miller and the team going off the boil all at once was no coincidence. Our midfield in general, has no attacking or defensive cohesion just now anyway. Too many busy wee players, and maybe McBride just shone out a bit as he was never scared to tackle.

Maybe not McBride but it's someone connected with the club :confused:

Think people are being a bit harsh on him, he was an important player for us during those first 6 months when we were flying. Seems to have struggled a bit since then with injury.

If CC doesnt want him then fair enough, and if he is a bit disruptive in the dressing room then he should go, but otherwise think hes a good squad player (at least).


Id keep him but with Murray playing holding role where mcbride plays ... but with murrays Versatility then imo keep mcbride bin De Graaf

Id play this line up

BROWN
THICOT,STEPHENS,,DICKOH,HANLON.
WOTHERSPOON,MCBRIDE,MURRAY,STEVENSON
ZEMMAMA,RIORDAN

Is anyone going to correct bigl if he's wrong?


stats mean Jack 5hit.

McBride was as poor as anyone in the second half of last season and was murder at the start of this season. His CV shows he never settles down anywhere so it's no great shock at his age, he's being moved on.

I only have two memories of him at ER... a terrific drive on the run when he first arrived (must have been a freak, never tried since) and getting caught up with Lafferty last season.

Whenever someone gets emptied people come on here and say they are a disruption in the dressing room, he certainly doesn't seem the type to be disruptive...

Quite liked McBride tbh, as someone previously said, he links up well with Miller in the midfield, but just got to trust that calderwood knows what hes doing and can bring in a better replacement.
