U's swoop for Cumbrians winger

Hackney has arrived at the Community Stadium for an undisclosed six-figure fee."I saw him in action for Carlisle against Crewe at the beginning of the season," Us boss Paul Lambert told the club's official website."I have had him watched since and he is another, like Marc Tierney, who I felt could do a job at this level."He is direct and will add to what we already have in the squad here."Hackney could make his debut at home to Northampton on Tuesday night, subject to Football League clearance.
