every season since the boys been 18 he's been linked with us in some capacity....

stevieboi · 21-04-08, 13:21

Surprised to hear he had been released, I know he was booed of in the cup game but I think all their players were equally as bad that day. I honestly wouldnt mind at all if we got him in on a years contract / coach maybe.

I think he was wasted as a full back for the sheep myself at his age I think he should be used as a centre half or holding midfielder. Him and Murray in midfield next season sounds not to shabby.

**ONLY7-0** · 21-04-08, 13:30

j.c was offered his services last season but told his agent that wee didnt need another right back.......i would take him here in a minute

TattooedHibee · 21-04-08, 13:31

I think he's pish.

He'll be lucky if he stays in the SPL, Kilmarnock...

**Bartok** · 21-04-08, 13:45

Sounds as if he hanging up his boots. I'd have him as a coach, but not as a player. Not even for Zarabi.

35 on his birthday. Not that old, ie Davie Weir, but too injury prone.

OxgangsHibby · 21-04-08, 15:30

Good player in his day, but way past his sell by date now, and as has already been stated here, injury prone, always has been.
so that's a NO then ......

that about sums it up for me.
Unproven as coach also.

**Baron von Hibee** · 21-04-08, 17:40

Judging by comments I've heard from Sheep fans (who were really pleased with his initial signing), he's been lousy for them all season, semi final performance was just the worst of a bad bunch of performances.

Certainly wouldn't want to see him becoming a Hibs player next season. Injury prone and past it.

**hughieo** · 21-04-08, 18:25

Well experience counts for quite a lot

He would not have rugby tackled a forward running away from goals and given away a penalty like one of our full backs.
Its fair to say he might find a team mate with a pass a bit more often than another of our full backs

**alexi** · 21-04-08, 18:31

Wouldnt touch him now. He has been gash all season for Eberdeen. There was a rumour on the TA board that Jackie walked out on the sheep the other day.

Smurf · 21-04-08, 18:34

I fear it's too late with him appearing to be a bit injury prone. Not so sure he's what we need.

That said he's never been pish.

i heard that he was suppsoed to sign for hibs before he went up north, woz apparently gutted wen they said he would not be needed by collins, however also heard he said tht he wants to end his career wi the hibees, so possibly sign a one year deal with the possibilty of a coaching career from the season after next.

I would have liked to have seen him here when he was 18. I think he could have done very well for us and we would have been good for him. If he had come I think he would have been welcomed back.

He's been turfed out of AFC (limping out not even half way through his two year contract) after having been turfed out of Wolverhampton Wanderers “has been blighted by injury” he left Celtc after having had a slagging match with WGS. Sounds like the football equivalent of Heather Mills!

He didn't come here earlier when he might have been good for us so he can take one.

I’d rather we re-signed his Dad

**Grant1875** · 22-04-08, 00:40

A bit like the Nicholson and Lovell thread.

I wouldn´t mind Lovell as I remember him being a good player at Dundee and under Mixu he may well get back to that form.

But some folk didn´t want him because he was deemed not good enough if Aberdeen freed him.

The same will surley apply to McNamara.

FWIW I wouldn´t take McNamara as he´s injury prone and too auld.

uncle bulgaria · 22-04-08, 08:49

My heart is ruling my head, but Id still like to see wee Jackie play for us.

Went to school with him and he loves Hibs.

As to anyone calling him pish....try to remember past last week.

A model pro who on his best form was able to rip through the spice boys of Liverpool.

**Dr Shrink** · 22-04-08, 09:38

Are we not just discussing this as a possibility because of his dad?

Jackie jnr has no connections with Hibs other than through his dad. I'm sure he would be raised as one of us, but I think we need to consider a bit more than his parentage and football allegiance before we sign a player.

No ta.

bigmanandy · 22-04-08, 11:49

If he was younger and the player he was before i would sign him as hes is a good proffesional but now i think hes getting on a bit he should be looking for a coaching role.

**wee 162** · 22-04-08, 12:05

I'm going to go against the flow a bit here and say I'd take him if there were a few conditions attached to it. First, he's not a first choice pick. If he merits a place in the team, he'll get it, if not he won't. Second, he is not going to be on anything like the top wage at ER. His fitness and form this season means he doesn't deserve that. Third, I can understand he is devoted to his family, but he has to be committed to Hibs if he's to come here. Read recently that he thinks a lot of his injuries were down to commuting from Edinburgh to Aberdeen virtually every day

I can understand that sitting in a car for the best part of 5-6 hours a day would do that right enough!

I reckon he's a good pro and would add a bit of experience which we're sorely lacking. Someone to help the youngsters get over the speed bumps they're all going to experience has to be a good thing. He's still a very decent passer of a ball for a defender. Plus, I've always felt there was a bit of destiny involved with him regarding us, and Hibs would do something decent when he was involved. Pure superstition and based on nothing other than a feeling.

edit; Plus it would be nice for someone to be playing for Hibs that's older than me

Celtic - he wanted a two year contract, Celtic offered a 1 year deal until they heard he'd been to Wolves for a medical and offered him a 3 year deal! He'd already given a verbal acceptance to a contract down there so knocked Celtic back.

Wolves - told them he wouldn't be renewing his contract during final season as wanted to be closer to his family.

FWIW, I'd have him at ER in a shot as long as he's not playing full back! He's not got the pace to match up to a winger and he knows it (he's even told tangoman this but keeps getting played where he gets skinned!) however as a holding midfielder/sweeper, he'd do a job.

Think it's too late now and Killie, Falkirk or 'Well will get him....

Im with you - bring him home, pay him bar all as he's loaded anyway and in exhange a part time coaching role with a crack at the first team.

It's good McNamara karma and what would we lose?
