roverthemoon Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Strange one. You’d think if he wasn’t in Hibs immediate plans they’d have left him at Stark’s Park for the rest of the season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taits a victim of signing a PCA. Possibly told by Jack Ross he’s very much in his plans come January and now the new man is in with his own ideas and budget and Tait is cast aside. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Not for us! Looking forward to Matthews chopping him on 19th Feb frankly.As mentioned, he wasn't really fitting into our side. It's not the best to see him go to a direct rival but we lost all privileges when we sold him to Hibs and did our January business early. Strange one. You’d think if he wasn’t in Hibs immediate plans they’d have left him at Stark’s Park for the rest of the season. Can only guess they didn't want to risk him being a 4th or 5th choice player. Could've ended up behind Matthews, Spencer, Stanton and Williamson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugbypark Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Strange one. You’d think if he wasn’t in Hibs immediate plans they’d have left him at Stark’s Park for the rest of the season. Maybe they think he needs experience at a bigger club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Slow clap for our board here, selling a player and ending up strengthening a promotion rival. Well done to all concerned. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGuigan1978 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 In all honestly, other than the start of last season when I thought he looked a brilliant prospect, he’s not really kicked on at Stark’s Park. In his defence, I’m not entirely sure we’ve used him in his best position, so probably makes sense to send him somewhere new and get a fresh start and maybe Derek McInness can get a bit more out of him. Fair play to him! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottydog Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 (edited) Surprising? Not hugely, feeling fairly ambivalent about it, a little disappointed but not massively so. It's be smashing if he was the only player at Rugby Park that gets a championship medal in May......unlikely though that may be.

Double Jack D Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 I liked Tait, he was decent and has potential to become a very good player. I'm still of the opinion that our midfield is stronger following our January business however the results on the park don't fully back that up. I'll admit to being a bit disappointed he is now with a promotion rival however, very much like Dan Armstrong, he wasn't good enough to get us promoted so not convinced he's going to improve Killie a great deal. Good luck to the lad though, I think his Hibs career is going to be a short one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lang Toun Lad Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 A bit of a shame to see him back down here already, and especially to a rival, but he was always going to struggle to get in to that Hibs midfield. It feels like Killie are spending a fortune now but I guess that's what the parachute payments can do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And will definitely be bankrolling the rumoured Lafferty deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hibs also taking Clark on loan from Arsenal after they pulled him from Ross County in this window. Maybe this makes up for when they loaned us Callum Booth for a season, only to forget a clause stopping him from appearing against them. In the February of that season, Booth had a stormer at Easter Road as we put them out the Scottish Cup. A fight broke out among the Hibs fans after one chucked a lighter or coin at him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxRover Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Not overly put out that Dylan is heading to Killie. He seems to have stalled in development with us for the first half of the season, so if he kicks on at Killie, he improves the eventual fee we’ll get selling on, and if he stagnates, it wastes money that could have been spent elsewhere by Killie. He really didn’t look a Premiership player the last few months, so this is the right level for him right now, and the exposure to different coaches, roles, styles and players will likely help his development. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith_Rasta Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Dylan to score a 94th minute winner on the last game o the season that takes us out the play offs . Hibs, prob sent him to a Title Rival to toughen him up emotionally, especially if it’s massive last game o the season and he can’t show any sensitivity towards The team that kicked started his career.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAR Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Yet another player we sold too soon & too cheaply. One day, our cost accountants may learn something about economics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
