It's either brilliant news or simply that us football fans read far too much into players social media accounts

I interperet it as a goodbye and thanks. Could mean absolutely anything or nothing though.

When I saw it I took it to mean good news but I see the daily record are saying it could be a sign he’s away.......

Probably means nothing

Yep, it's 100% a farewell gesture.

Or something else.

His Instagram story has the same photo with the tag line “missing it” followed by a sad emoji

I tend to go with the 'Goodbye' train of thought. He does have to return to his home club, so it's only polite to applaud the supporters of a club who've appreciated his contribution to their season.

What happens next season is up to MC and Brandon himself. Given that he's shown what he's capable of, more than a few teams will be looking at him. If an EPL club like Brighton were to show interest... and they can afford to pay a far higher percentage of his wage than we have, I think it would be hard for him to turn it down, regardless of how much he enjoyed his time with us. Brilliant stadium, great support, and like to play football much as we do.

Are we going to start threads after every player posts a tweet or pic on Instagram?? That photo could mean absolutely anything and I’m struggling to see how any1 could take that it’s a sign he is coming back. Folk read far too much into social media these days :rolleyes:

Don't see the problem really. Close season so people are going to post a range of things.

Although if a pic/tweet can mean 'anything' how can you then judge what it means?

I think it's no bad thing to speculate over players social media. All part of the fun.

He's being cryptic. That tweet was late after the end of the season and in that picture he's not wearing a tee.

Say "Late" without the T.

Leigh's coming back :hyper

I did notice Boyle’s tweet to Barker about fancying the Europa next season has been deleted. Make of that what you will!

I interpret the clapping as "Thanks for the encouragement, folks - appreciate it".
Like they do when they get an applause when being subbed and they return the clap back.

Scott Allan just posted a pic of him taking a corner whilst on loan at Hibs this season.

Might need a catchier name....

Sorry guys, to me that's quite clearly a goodbye. Uploads a picture of the last game of the season where he's saying goodbye to the fans, and puts up the waving emoji also..

Would love to be wrong, absolutely smashing player!

I think being brought up as a man city player he will have his sites on EPL football. I hope his time at Hibs has helped, great player, but I think he'll be wanting a bigger stage to show what he can do.

He has huge potential but is nowhere near ready for that level IMO. I wouldn't even be thinking about the Championship either yet, given how little football he has played and the nature of that league. Another year at Hibs, in a positive and familiar environment, would make sense for all parties to see if he can build on the flashes he showed last season. As a Hibs fan I'm biased though obviously!

Agreed. I think he’s a wonderful player, but let’s keep in mind he didn’t always start for us.

Long way off premier league level yet. I think he'd struggle in the championship. He wasn't even our best winger this season.

I reckon players like being cryptic to try and get a reaction from fans. Brandon does it as do others.

Here's one from Maclaren whilst not particularly cryptic but possibly trying to gauge fans' opinions of him. I'm more than happy to send some "love bombs" if it helps get him, Flo, Scotty and Brandon back next season.
