Richie Towell can't play against Celtc

[Keith_M]

I didn't realise this but it's against SPL rules for a loanee to play against his own club

On the positive side, maybe less chance of an own goal :wink:

[Golden Bear]

And just for a change Michael Hart could be out due to injury.

:rolleyes:

[Sir David Gray]

I'm not sure it needs to be an SPL rule to be honest.

I don't know of any club that would allow one of their players to play against them whilst they're out on loan at a rival club.

Steven Thicot at RB then? :rolleyes:

[Wotherspiniesta]

In that case, bring D into RB, and set up:


Brown

Spoony Dickoh Hanlon Booth

Scott Miller Palsson Thornhill Riordan

Sodje


Simples.

FWIW, I actually agree with the rule. I'd hate for one of our players to have a stormer against us while out on loan.

Don't know about Thicot. He's been out injured for a few weeks and was only back at training last week.

Well if Towell's ineligible and Hart and Thicot are both injured, we'll probably need to play Wotherspoon at RB then? :dunno:

Team;

Brown

Wotherspoon
Dickoh
Hanlon
Booth

Palsson
Scott
Miller
Thornhill

Riordan
Sodje

SUBS

Smith
Stephens
Stevenson
Murray
Galbraith
Nish
Vaz Te

With our midfield being stronger that could work. Only thing is Wotherspoon seems to be running on empty a bit recently. Hopefully the break this weekend will be good for him and give him time to recharge his batteries. Thicot could be a sub though.

[seanraff07]

Spoony at RB i'd think.

[KWJ]

What's the latest on Kevin McCann?

[Sir David Gray]

I don't have a problem with the rule. I would just have thought that all that would need to happen is the club putting the player out on loan would have a written agreement with the club that the player is going to which states that the player cannot play in any games between the two sides during the loan spell.

Even without this SPL rule, I don't think there's any team that would allow one of their own players to play against them.

For that reason, I believe the rule is unnecessary.

[iwasthere1972]

Jake Robinson has just scored his second goal for Torquay against Shrewsbury. Yes you've guessed correctly........he's on loan from Shrewsbury.

[leeds_hibby]

Arsenal let sanchez watt play against them twice for leeds utd in the fa cup and he had a blinder in both.

[sahib]

Good!
He is a ****in liability.

[NOLA]

What's the latest on Kevin McCann?

still recovering from injury im sure:rolleyes: out of contract in the summer,

[El Gubbz]

He isn't the only hibs player not able to play on wednesday

[ArabHibee]

Good!
He is a ****in liability.

Sorry but I totally disagree. He's had his moments but on the whole I think he's been a good loan signing.

[ArabHibee]

He isn't the only hibs player not able to play on wednesday

I think a lot of Hibs players are not able to play on Wednesday.:wink:

[Golden Bear]

I think Sahib may have forgotten to post his sarcastic smiley.

But there again this is Hibs net where our players are expected to perform at 100% of their abilities for 100% of the time.
