[Link] John McGinn

Not if we’re not even talking to the guy or showing him we want him in anyway except a couple of pisstake bids

 

It’s funny how much our fans take the huff when EPL fans say this exact thing about our players.

 

We aren’t allowed to talk to him though.

Unless you condone tapping up?

 

Lennon has also basically said he wants to come here and make the next step was his words., I think it will be done soon.

 

That’s my full point mate, if we’re not in the conversation none of our positives matter at all.

 

The boy knows if we move on to another target he's missed his chance. He will be gutted.

 

who the * cares? Ive no interest in propping up hibs coffers to the detriment of our own. As a celtic fan i couldnt give two squirts of * about ANY club but ours.

if he had 8 years left on his contract he wouldnt be worth 4 million ffs

Hes a hibs player and its their prerogative to demand what they want but that doesnt mean hes worth it or we should pay it.

 

We should court him publicly, get him to force the issue more and demand the move. * you, Petrie.

 

We should make a final bid and tell the media that this will be the last offer. Petrie rejects and McGinn will hand in a transfer request I think.

 

I'm sure they've had enquiries, but it's pure guess work by the Hun and predictable lazy journalism .

 

You were talking about Brendan "walking" and "falling at the first hurdle" last night fs

 

He knows we want him and he wants to come, he's in the last year of his contract. He won't go to a Championship Club and if he does he won't have wanted it enough with us...


Just need to relax it will get done

 

You think Lenny and BR aren't in discussion with each other?

 

I think Petrie is hoping other bids will come in to force us to bid more, but I doubt any other team is offering as good a deal as us, the fact they get a player back who performs well for them so they only need to replace McGinn.

At this point we should just get it done with in a final bid, stop * about and starting a media circus.

 

I didnt say £3m and Allan, I said £3m with allan as part of that i.e. £2m + Allan. Even still, i think it would be a good deal.

 

So you think Brendan’s tapping him up? I doubt that tbh mate.

 

And to the point of view of EPL fans the likes of Dembele are just ‘SPFL players’

Nothing to do with propping up anyones coffers, it’s just annoying seeing hypocrisy from our fans. Moan about the exact same arrogance against us that you show to those in the same league us as.

I can remember the exact same things getting said about Broony and co.

Thankfully, that arrogance doesn’t permeate the club itself.

 

100% they will have spoken about him and how far the clubs are apart..defo mate.

 

Nothing ever becomes of "Tapping Up", I remember one big case about it years and years ago, think it was Chelsea.

Nothing ever seems to happen, when it likely happens all the time. Doubt many clubs put bids in without finding out where a players heads at.

 

I’ll take your word for it, using ulterior motives to get to a player just doesn’t seen Brendan’s style to me mate.

What was it the Madrid clubs and Barca got a ban for?
