    Personally I trust the club’s judgement. They’ve been scouting him long before these past two transfer windows, they’ve had an eye on him since he was about 12. Now the time has finally come when Motherwell feel prepared to let him go for as much money as possible - fair enough - and we’re tore a new one by the agent.

    In saying that, you’re dead on w McGinn, we wouldn’t be in this mess if we’d have been able to get our finger out

    I will be disappointed if we don’t sign him. Serious potential there, 1 in 2 from midfield for a poor enough Motherwell team is a serious record for a 19 year old.

    Nothing we can do if he doesn’t fancy it.

    I've been pretty critical of the board recently but i can't find anything(other than putting out that statement, which was needless) to fault them for here. They met Motherwell's valuation and made an offer to the player for wages far in excess of what he has been earning. If he or his agent wants to play games the club is right to walk away.

    Must be no chance of a deal for us to tweet that, only other option would be the agent is asking for too much for himself and we have publicised it to embarrass him and get the boy to do something.

    Supposedly the lad doesnt know anything about the deal and it's the agent doing all of this and supposedly its between 10 and 15k the only player to get more was broony when he joined from.a Scottish side the reason the club tweeted was to embarrass the agent because the player actually wants to sign for us

    its likely that could be a reason why we are shy of giving out big wages on young talent because we have quite the mixed bag with prospects also younger players tend to be quite inconsistent, its the problem you run into if like us you have rearranged the transfer policy into looking mainly at prospects

    what age is lawell now ? because i think hes finding the job especially the transfer side of things very difficult, maybe got complacent with no real challengers up here in recent seasons but i recognise for a club in a small league like ours its never been harder to get good players in, so i have sympathies, not too much cause the guys that run us are fly as * lol

    I highly doubt the boy's on holiday and oblivious to what's going on..

    He'll be in constant contact with his agent on their next move..

    Seems to me that the agent is trying to blackmail Celtic here. He knows Celtic are under pressure from fans with this one considering recent negative issues, McGinn saga being one of them.

    I reckon he's chancing it for silly money thinking Celtic will just pay it so as to not look like penny pinchers to a fan base that are so on edge atm.

    Celtic have called their bluff....* you we'll tell our fans what's happening and put the pressure back on to you. Ya cheeky money grabbing *.

    100% behind the club on this one. In fact cancel the deal altogether.

    This is exactly what happens when we try to shop in the EPL's backyard.

    3.25m & 10k a week could see us get outstanding talent elsewhere but for some reason we don't appear to be looking in the right places.

    Why we never insisted on a nda with motherwell as to the agreement & fee I'll never know, should have been under wraps until it was all signed and sealed.

    Having been not bothered about the fella this situation changes nothing although I do think the tweet was a good thing but we should have went a step further and publicly stated we were withdrawing it due to unreasonable demands with us stating what he was offered for clarity.

    If we actually had a competent recruitment team we would already have moved on to our next target instead of tweeting about him.

    We're a genuine embarrassment now.

    Honestly thought we'd never sink to the depths of the Huns, but we're closing in on it.

    He cut his holiday short to undergo a medical in the coming days might have even been today but as far as I have read he hasn't been at the meetings his agent trying to blackmail a few extra grand I know I would be ragin if Celtic wanted me and because of my agent I ended up at brighton

    There's nothing embarrassing about it. We're refusing to be taken for dicks.

    Genuinely thought this would be a formality.
    Sorry but how is looking at the best talent in our own country, shopping in the wrong place?
