Local news are reporting it as a £2.1m fee. Also suggesting he is having his medical and prefers a move to England than Celtic. So called McGinn wanted to move only to Celtic. So why is he in Birmingham then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgie_Rules Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 In the times I have watched them on TV and against us he has been the main man for them pretty much every game. If he goes it will harm their season in a big way. Decent amount of cash but can't see that having an immediate impact on their playing squad.

Saint Jambo Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 1 hour ago, Rudy T said: With a 1/3 going to St Mirren, a few quid off to UEFA and a new barn to build at the farm.....ah well thanks for the memories fat arse! I know someone else mentioned Hibs were looking at a new feel sized indoor pitch for £1m. Don't know where this story has come from but worth pointing out that £1m doesn't come anywhere close to buying you a full sized indoor pitch. A fullsized outdoor artificial pitch will cost you close to £1m. The new indoor pitch opened in Glenrothes earlier this year was £2.3m and is only a 60x40m training pitch. So only about a third of the size of a full size pitch. I'd be surprised if Hibs went down this route. It would be a bigger investment than the sale of McGinn will finance.

Rocky jamboa Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Good to see the bigot brothers not getting their own way for once. Maybe they will start making more realistic offers than assuming players will hold out to move there. The championship now a bigger draw than those two, with all the money swirling about down there.

I'm not that bothered where he goes I just hate the way the old firm think they can take what they want. Although my sympathy for Hibs in this case is zero given all the special favours they've had from Celtic....I'd imagine that's over should mcginn go south. It’s way more than that. His grandad is an ex-chairman of Celtic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely hated John Collins Sauzee maybe at a push but at the time I think we had Fulton and Salvatori or Severin in there who I loved. Latapy meh. Good player but wasn’t fussed for him. They’ve had other talented players but majority arseholes who I didn’t want or who I wouldn’t take over a Hearts player at the time.

Might be quite possibly the ugliest laddie I've ever saw play for the hobo's but for the national team to improve we need more Scottish players playing at a decent level. Hopefully, if he goes he'll go on to be a mainstay in the villa team when they do eventually get promoted. 2 hours ago, Rudy T said: He's certainly up there with Paul Kane and Willie Miller....They've had a few who fell out the ugly tree and hit all the branches on the way down.... 23 minutes ago, It should have been ten said: I thought of them straight away too...as well as Paul ‘pizza pus’ Wright from that era.
