Posted June 27, 200717 yr Yves Makabu-Ma Kalambay has joined Hibs on a permanent deal - a shame really I was looking forward to hearing Andy Gray coming up with a host of hilarious gags along the lines of 'I'll just call him Bob'
June 28, 200717 yr Saw him a lot in the reserves this past two years. Okay but nothing special. We seem to have a thing for giant keepers at the mo. Surprised he did not return to Belgium.
June 28, 200717 yr I think I saw him in one or two games and in those he was rubbish. Worse keeper I've ever seen actually.
August 6, 200717 yr Author Just a little note in case anyone is interested. Yves Ma-Kalambay is being pretty well received up here. He has prormed well for Hibs in pre-season and in their derby win tonight and Hibs are delighted with the signing so far.
August 7, 200717 yr not surprised loz...i saw him a few times for reserves and noticed last season he had really come on...shame he could never get a real chance but it's one of our strongest departments so it was right to let him go...good luck to him
August 7, 200717 yr Yeah, he is far too close in age to make it into the first team. Let's be honest, with Cech, Cudicini and Hilario as 3rd choice, you'd have to be the next Dino Zoff or Lev Yashin to even get a chance- on the bench!
August 28, 200717 yr Author And that he nose dived!! Makalamby had a game at the weekend that even Paul Robinson hasn't stooped to yet!! He had an absolute shocker and gifted two terrible goals.
