Sorry if I have missed this, I'm not getting as much board action as I would like. I heard that Deeks agent asked Hibs for training facilities and they have declined him, as have Rangers and Celtic.
Good source, not exactly big news, but a wee bit disappointing that we won't even let our top goalscorer of the last 20 years have training facilities.
Thoughts?

He didn't get himself fit using them the last time so why let him use them this time?

Why does he need to use East Mains or the old firm? He can run around various places like Arthur Seat, and go to any gym he wants..... Originally Posted by UEFAHibby

Also rejected by Hearts as was useless at badminton and therefore likely to weaken the team against the students in the play-off for use of the facilities. Originally Posted by SquashedFrogg

He'd have felt at home there - nobody is getting wages.

I'm in two minds with this one - on the one hand I'd like to see the club look after a former player, on the other hand though I think the training center should be dedicated to the team. It's there for Hibernian players and it should be exclusive. If folk want to use the facilities there then they should be contracted to the club as a player.

Are we a charity likes? He left us for £30k a week in China, I'm sure he can afford to join a gym.

yep, 100% correct. Besides. EM and fitness appear not to go hand in hand judging by the state of the squad Originally Posted by Baldy Foghorn

If this is true I think the club were right to decline use of facilities.
Both Club & player have moved on - we don't need ex players proving a distraction to players at training. On the basis of corners & free kicks at last 2 games our guys need all the focus on training they can get

Hibs were worried that Deeks fitness levels would embarass the squad!

CC was still the manager when Deeks asked to use East Mains. He was refused. Im not sure if he has asked again since Fenlon has arrived.

Unless we are looking to offer him a contract, then there are no positives for either club or player in letting him be around the place and the players.
