Is this what he classes as LJ throwing him under the bus? (After his hamstring went when he ran a little bit)

It's such a brief clip that it's not easy to put it into context. From what he says there though I don't get his gripe. Barely played due to injury, played well (I thought) when fit but overall didn't make a big enough contribution to justify a contract extension.

It sounds like he's annoyed we didn't offer him another contract but surely he can't have any complaints after having missed so much football with us through injury?

Yeah he missed 11 games. But the injury he then got at Hibs was completely unrelated, it was just bad luck.

I'm sure it was many more than that.

He made 14 appearances for Sunderland during his final season there (according to wiki) and I'm sure he was injured during the November of 2021. That's not a lot of appearances in a 46 game league season, when you've got 3 cups to play in as well. I'm sure he was just at full fitness when they reached the play offs and since his end product had been excellent when fit at Sunderland, there was quite a bit of chat about whether or not he should come back into a team that had been doing much better in his absence during the second half of that season.

Pretty sure he then had 2 unrelated injuries at Hibs - not sure whether that is more or less of a problem tbh ie he's simply getting more and more different injuries rather than there being an existing weakness.

AM himself is quoted in this article saying the first injury he got at Hibs was a reoccurrence of what happened the previous season at Sunderland. It also makes reference to a series of lengthy injury layoffs during his latter time there.

McGeady should stfu.

He did nowt whilst with us and got paid handsomely for doing so.

Crap signing from the get-go and should never have been anywhere near our club. Screw him.

Hopefully we don’t make a similar mistake again.

McGeady is a serial moaner and whiner,so I wouldn’t give much credence to what he says.
During his time at Hibs he did an interview on Sportsound about his career.He slagged of every club and manager he’d ever played for.
His views on Neil Lennon,made Lee Johnson in comparison sound like McGeady’s favourite uncle.
He’s at Ayr United now where him and Jamie Murphy can keep the treatment table warm.

Not the happiest with Johnson.

Got a chance when he looked like a crock - and turned out to be a crock.

He was good when he -layed but he was getting a big wage to sit in the sick bay. Hibs can’t afford that.

No doubt he’ll be out for another four months after the exertion of that interview.

I always had Levein down as more of a linoleum sort of a guy. Easier to keep clean.

He had talent but couldn't get himself on the pitch. Didn't provide any end product. Spent his down time on sportsound following celtic around europe referring to them as "us" and watching celtic youth at the weekend. And now slating the manager that gave him the chance. A guy that did not get us. Very strange.

I think plenty on here questioned his signing for the exact reason it turned out to be a disaster. It was a punt and in my mind not one I wanted the club to take. If he had been a good sort like Holt or Le Fondre then there may be some value that fans don't see. But he is all about himself and that shows through in that interview.

There were plenty of us who thought it was a crap signing 8 months ago!

Aiden McGeady is a miserable package, with all his money you would think he would lighten up a bit, convinced he is related to the Rev. I.M. Jolly.
