    Young Mackie has made his breakthrough this season and most on here were positive in his performances.

    Certainly didnt look out of place and his cross for the equaliser at Ibrox was a joy.

    Great left peg...thats without doubt..

    had a stinker at Parkhead - but hopefully that will be a big learning moment - all players have them - at any age.

    Still got to show he is a top defender - not seen that in him yet.

    It seems a bit strange he is rated at national level and captaining his country at his age group, on the radar of English Premiership teams but not seen as a top prospect by Hibs.
    Who at Hibs has said he’s not seen as a top prospect?

    This sounds more like personal issues as to why he's out in the cold. Do we know what type of laddie he is, I know May is quite a tough task master and the reason he gets results.
    He’s a decent lad. Played with my boy in his school team. A great goalscoring attacking midfielder. I was a bit surprised to see he’d been converted to a centre half. His temperament wasn’t always the best at the school games though which is the one thing I thought would maybe stop him making it. Hopefully that’s been knocked out of him now.

    You'd be surprised at how many CHs were forwards, midfielders at youth level

    What I was asking is why if we seen him as a top prospect is he on the verge of being out of contract. Did we get caught short in not tying one of out top youngters to the club or did we offer a longer contract and he turned it down. I just find it strange he is national captain for his age, being chased by EPL teams and so rated there but about out of contract here and not getting a game (as someone else said) with our development team.
    I'd seen the name pop up a few times on here and was looking forward to him making the breakthrough in a couple of years. Now looks like he will be gone and the club not getting any cash - or just a nominal tribunal fee. He might not go on to make it in the game but if he turns out to be a multi million pound EPL player surely someone dropped the ball at Hibs unless it was the boy himself that turned down signing a longer deal.

    Not surprised to be honest. A lot of our young players seem to fall out with May.

    Is he some sort of tyrant with he laddies?

    Led to believe he's a hard taskmaster, demands a lot from them, never done Porteous, Murray and Shaw any harm, they've all worked hard to get where they are. Pro football takes no prisoners and to make it you have to do the extras like gym work and being more professional, some can't hack it.

    Has absolutely nothing to do with him not putting the extra work in. In fact he’s one of the hardest working lads down there. His issue is with what he perceives as Hibs stifling his progression by not getting as many development games as he believes he deserves. Can’t fault him for that. He believes he should be playing week in week out and other clubs are prepared to give him that platform. I’ve a strong feeling this is one we might end up regretting losing.

    Is he as good if not better than the other CH's? if he's the same or not better he cannot demand to play every week. Is he a stand out when he plays?

    In my opinion he is streets ahead of Kevin Waugh, yes.

    It's clearly because Eddie May has had a run in with him.

    Kano is a very good player, been with Hibs a very long time. Sadly it looks like someone will benefit from this.

    Do you know what the run in was about, and who is to blame?

    If its true that he has problems with May and I was Hibs manager I would be asking May wtf is going on that we have lost one of our prospects for nothing? We cant afford to be losing players for nowt.

    That's absolutely ridiculous, in what way will having youngsters playing for nothing do the game in Scotland any good?

    I agree but I’m only passing on the info I received from someone within the club as to what was happening.
