Let's be having you Hammers! Only one flaw the Irons are on the way down Moysie is doomed wether they stay up or down At the moment he has the worse record of any West Ham manager Quote

They have most of the summer to play hardball on McGinn, either to get him to extend by another year, giving them the same problem next summer, or to sell. Bearing in mind if they sell for £3m they would be due us the best part of £1m I can't see them being massively tempted by £2m right now. A Premiership club should be good for £5m in my opinion! Im sure i saw an interview with Lennon where he said that McGinn would not go for any less than £5M thats why im hoping for £6M and a cool £2M to the buds Quote

Quite why people still struggle to grasp this is a mystery. possibly, the fact that i hadn't read anything that indicated this fact after we were told that the old board received monies from a previous transferthis would debunk your mystery theory. a condescending wee post on your part, but devoid of swear words. Your getting better Quote

I believe that's also confidential, maybe even so much so that Stewart isn't aware and hence he believed he was being 100% accurate when talking to Div. As of February, post-accelerated payment talks, there was still a payment plan in place. At the same time a plan was agreed to finally begin facilitating the 50K facility for the club. Quote
div Posted May 3, 2018 Report Posted May 3, 2018 Either way, any income from John McGinn being sold won't be used to pay off the old consortium, I think we can all agree that is the case? And it won't be used to accelerate any pay out to Gordon either. It's highly possible that the cut on John will be the highest transfer fee the club has ever received, eclipsing the £850K we got for Ferguson. It will be a game changing windfall for us when it happens. Quote

Great backdrop to use increased income from Ticket sales, sponsorship and "guaranteed" minimum prize money for the playing budget. Quote

rabuddies Posted May 3, 2018 Report Posted May 3, 2018 Stop short changing the boy. Chelsea want £11M for a midfielder with 7 caps (same as J McG) who had played 11 mins for the first team and Bristol City are wanting £6M for a young full back. I'm hoping it's the EPL clubs who come for him and the bidding starts at £7M. The green bigots won't get involved at that price. Quote

LargsBud Posted May 3, 2018 Report Posted May 3, 2018 How long does his current contract at Hibs last? We've been thinking for a few transfer windows now that he'll move on and hasn't. Is it time to hit the panic button if he doesn't move this time? Quote

If we get a cut, great, if we don't, we carry on as normal. Little point in getting excited about money we might never get. Edited May 3, 2018 by Thorizaar Quote

Hibs will not allow him to run his contract down and he leaves for nothing. If a suitable offer comes in they will accept it as this will be his final year. I know John has indicated he would like to stay but money talks and I suspect he will be sold this summer so they can buy Scott Allan and maybe retain their other good players by offering them a better deal.

Little point in getting excited about money we might never get. It is important. We don't include these sell on clauses just for the fun of it or for a nice wee bonus. It will be factored in to the value of the player and the long term profitability of our youth academy. If we don't get anything he will be another name to add to the list of talent we've developed and got close to the square root of f**k all for. Edited May 3, 2018 by LargsBud Quote

McGinn has got to come out with the "I want to stay" patter to stay onside with the hibs support. Quote
