The club can confirm that, as a result of injuries to both David Marshall and Jojo Wollacot at their UEFA Conference League match against Inter Club D'Escaldes of Andorra, Hibernian FC have recalled Murray Johnson on an Emergency basis until the injuries have been properly assessed. This is for an initial 7 day period but we hope to have further clarity of the position by next week. We would like to take this opportunity to wish Murray and Hibernian the best of luck in their matches domestically and in Europe next week.
As a result, we have ourselves recalled Charlie Cowie from his loan at Gretna 2008 for a further 7 days initially to join the squad ahead of tomorrow's League One fixture with Alloa Athletic. Charlie was also recalled last week when Murray Johnson was ill but had returned to Gretna when Murray returned to training on Monday. We would like to thank Gretna for their understanding and have assisted them in finding another goalkeeper for this weekend.
