andrew87 Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 If there's add-ons for Hibs such as £1 million for promotion do we get a share? Would represent profit for Hibs so should be a share for us but guess it depends on the exact wording of the deal we made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendy Saintss Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 Some chat on Sportsound there coming out of the Celtic boardroom via Chris McLaughlin: Celtic thought it was a done deal because of noises from the "McGinn camp" and were caught on the backfoot by Villa's interest. They then outbid Villa yesterday but it came too late as Bruce had already turned JM's head. Seems McGinn has not even been into Parkhead for talks. Apparently more first team football at AV than CFC was a big factor plus Villa offered doubled the salary! Indeed. He’d only have been a squad player at Septic. He’ll be a regular at Villa and hopefully make it into the Premiership next season. He’ll also earn more money. It’s a complete no brainer. Villa over Septic anytime.

Mr Zo Posted August 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 I think one of the main factors for John McGinn will be playing time. He has played regular first team football since he broke into the first team and won't want to give that up. Celtic won't guarantee him that while I think Steve Bruce has probably said he will build a team around John McGinn. Hibs saying deal is now done and signed for Aston Villa for an undisclosed fee. Show me the money! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Zo Posted August 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 On 8 January 2017 at 9:10 AM, Mr Zo said: Was reading the Hibs v United match report from Friday night and saw that McGinn came on for Hibs after his spell out injured and played very well and scored a terrific solo goal. McGinn might be our saving grace in the next 18 months or so as if he keeps up his good form and gets a big money move then St Mirren will see a 1/3 of any fee Hibs get. Would love to see him win the title with Hibs and move on for £2-3 million in the summer with saints landing a healthy windfall which could help us cope with a drop into league One and possibly remain full time to get us out of the league. He is our only hope of getting a significant cash sum into our beloved club. Neil Lennon has a knack of selling on players to England for large sums of cash so here's hoping McGinn is the next one. Also Celtic could could do worse than turn to McGinn as he has attributes to go to the very top. Keep up the good work John! Just trying to start a positive thread as there is currently very little positive to mention about the club after yesterday's shambles. Bump! This poster knows his stuff. What a windfall this will be. A memorable day for the buds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bart Simpson Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 The sell on fee percentage being a perennial reward for future sales is a great reward as long as the the player is bought rather than moving on out of contract. It means we as fans have more of a vested interest in former players doing well and is vindication of our investment in the youth policy adopted by the club. Hopefully that is the case...I think he’ll go from strength to strength down south. If he does well with Villa you could easily see a £10million+ move in a year or two, specifically because of the cash in English football and because he has that potential. Celtic have lost out big time as he seemed the natural successor to Brown. In summary, great player, lots of potential, great move for him, Saints and Hibs and hopefully the gift that keeps on giving...well done Gilmour and co for your negotiation skills and to all those instrumental in his development in the youth teams at Saints as well as the managers who played him regularly and gave him time to develop.
