Rudy T Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 6 minutes ago, Say What Again said: Surely there's not a chance in hell of Scott Allan taking a £250k hit on his yearly salary (seeing it cut by around 60%?). I'd imagine that would be getting paid up in full by Celtic, so if he has another 2 years left on his deal, that's another £500k, so I'd guess that's why Celtic aren't going near the £3m mark. They'd already effectively be coughing up £2.7m plus Scott Allan in that deal above, Exactly the issue. From both Celtic and Allan. He goes to hibs and loses a fortune. Celtic loan him and pay for McGinn and they're paying way over the odds. And if Hibs don't buy him within a year he's worth nothing to Celtic.

Bighenry Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Celtic and hibs would be as well wearing half n half strips. Since Celtic won them the cup for them it’s become the norm for hibs to borrow a few players per season. Lennon is still as Celtic as they come. It’s Even more likely at the moment ,given the fact he’s back at darkheid at drop of a hat. Even when hibs are playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juanjo15 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Fk Hibs Fk Banjo boy Fk Celtic Fk Lennon Much bigger and better than Hibs in every aspect. McGinn stays or goes we will still be better next season regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chester copperpot Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 The fee is not the issue. Lennon wants a couple of players, not one, and needs Celtic to subsidise majorly (if on loan) The fee is nowhere near 2m btw. That is all I am saying on this.

I find it strange, especially as allot of hibs fans hate the Glasgow two, although like us an element does suck up to an arse cheek, I can't even imagine Budge or Craig contemplating a special relationship with rangers.

Deevers Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 If Hibs play him tonight then nothing will happen till January. Celtic will sit tight and sign him on a pre contact then. McGinn is desperate to sign for Celtic and one way or another that's where he will land up. I hope Lennon and co shoot themselves in the foot with this and screw over St Mirren at the same time.

I noticed this also.... Murray’s departure will undoubtedly raise speculation that Australian striker Jamie Maclaren, who is determined to leave his German club Darmstadt despite having two years left on his contract, may return. However, Lennon insisted he wouldn’t comment on players under contract elsewhere. But he did say: “We have four or five options we are trying to pursue and we want to try to get some business done as quickly as possible but a lot will depend on John McGinn’s situation as well in terms of how much money – if any – we have to spend on players going forward.” So after Hayley Croppers posturing at the end of the season about player budgets, the reality is that was based on selling McGinn. So Celtic now know they need the McGinn cash to buy players, clever stuff from the former Celtic manager there, handing all the power to Celtic!

Keep a player who now publicly wants to leave and can sign a pre-contract in 6 months OR accept the terms Celtic offer. It would appear this bumping up of McGinn's value has backfired a bit because Celtic seem to be the only serious bidders. Without a counter bid, his value is what Celtic are prepared to offer. I love watching them coming back down to earth. No McLaren, No McGeough, No Barker, McGinn off. Enjoy your rebuild Lenny. Leaving it a bit late though. As an aside, was having this conversation at work regarding this point, it seems whenever Celtic or Rangers for that matter are interested in any Scottish talent, there never seems to be a bidding war, ie we were told six months ago clubs were all over McGinn , where have they gone. This is not a recent phenomenon either it was the same with McCann Paul Ritchie, Alan McLaren Lee Wallace and David Templeton, lots of talent, but only the old firm showed any interest. Why when it was obvious all had the potential to play above the old firm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
