Another year is fine as long as not on a big wage. Excellent back up and someone to help nurture Doig & Mackie.

Here's hoping that he stays as opposed to heading elsewhere in search of a regular start. I think both Doig & Mackie specifically can learn a lot from him as can the rest of our youngsters in general.

I think he’ll see off the challenge if the other 2, be our regular LB again for much of the rest of the season, the defence will do it’s bit for the rest of the season and he’ll be well worth any extension.

Good to hear - Stevenson has been an excellent club servant - convinced he can still do a job for us - if fit, I'd pick him - hope he stays with us for many years to come

Too right he should be offered an extension....sentiment has nothing to do with it despite the time he's been with us or his 2 cups, it is because the boy is a bloody good player. Strong, experienced and talented.....he is also properly fit, a year for me sounds odd, he still has at least 2 peak years left.

At the moment he’s not a back up either - he’s our best left back and until he’s not then he should still be here.

Starting to pick up injuries more regularly now so we will always need decent cover if he is given new contract if he stays injury free after this spell out still worth another year imo

I love Lewis and think he deserves another year.
But how long do McGregor and Gray have left? I'm a bit nervous about keeping 3 defenders on the books at their age.
I know they won't be on huge money but they are 3 professionals, not kids. They are still taking up a wage and together probably a pretty good wage.

Sorry but I’d let him go. Excellent pro and amazing servant to Hibs but we have Daz and Sir David on long term contracts. Let the two young lads fight it out for that position and spend his wages on other positions.
We had the golden generation making us millions because we played them constantly. We now have two young lads that can fill Lewis’ position. I know this will not be a popular opinion but we need to make hard decisions every so often.

I’ll also take your most successful Hibs player ever and raise you three league medals for Smith, Turnbull, Combe and no doubt a few others. Going further back, the team that won the cup in 1902 and league the following season might just have a claim on that accolade, if you prefer a mixed declaration of greatness.
He’s a great Hibernian, but not our most successful player ever.

Any extension should be one season at a time. We can’t let ourselves get to the situation we have with Gray and McGregor. Two full time senior players playing about ten games between them a season and struggling mostly in those games. That is not a good use of Hibs small resources.

Happy, as I feel that he rarely let's us down.
What's the latest with McGinn's contract? IMO I think that he's done very well at right back.

I think for the time being Lewis is still first choice when all three of him, Mackie, and Doig are fit.
Mackie needs time though with the age he's at to try and take over the role at some point so it would be good to see the two rotate with each other. Doig is still so young and has had a great start with some evidence of work needed to continue development on so it makes sense to keep Lewis and slowly transition.

I would like to see him retire as a Hibs player. Not many one team men in the modern era. In fact I can’t be sure, but maybe the Likes of Eddie Turnbull was the last one at Hibs?
