Unlike what the usual suspects are capable of on here. Boring bastards.

This slaughter in Paris is a disgrace. What sort of people kill over satire, even if some of the satire really is beyond the pale? Either you believe in freedom of expression or you don't. People who don't should be excluded from our countries. Same goes for subjugation of women, forced marriages and all other affronts to humanity. Muslim extremists have no place in civil society. Fucking bastards. Farage is a nutter but he was right in his interview just now. Multiculturalism was never going to work to the extent it's been facilitated.

I apologise. You guys that see nothing wrong are the majority on here. Like you were re Calderwood. Like you were re Clangfool. It's not AFC issues here. It's something else.

What a wanker. Somebody educate this moron. He doesn't know McGinn's previous and uses his own ignorance as justification to write shit like this. And quite how an online forum is going to do "far more harm" is incredulous.

Smart arse. My point was that the player in question was the most frustrated I have ever been this century with an AFC player. I wasn't the only one. His team-mate, the worst goalkeeper ever to have played more than 20 or 30 games for us was also screaming at him.

One of the missing thousands then, the 30,000+ missing...

Your ignorance of the two previous occasions he incurred the wrath of AFC supporters isn't my fault. You don't think celebrating a Celtic goal is grounds to fire him. I can't help you there either. In case you can't read, I have not said that he did celebrate it. I speculated on the reasons why McGinn hasn't been producing his best form. He was pretty shite for two whole years until he last few games and even then, he's not producing what he used to. I have no idea why he's not been producing. All I'm sure of is that it's mental, an attitude problem. He has NOT been giving AFC and this manager what he gave the previous manager. That's a fact isn't it? Or is your ignorance of McGinn's history symptomatic of your ignorance about football generally. Do you even go to games?

Your comedic talents certainly lighten the mood wonderfully *winksmiley* Nobody's getting their knickers in a twist here. It's a very simple case. It's the wankers pretending it's fuck all that should be shot.

Well instead of posting shite, try and say something interesting for a change.

At last. Some attempts at clarity. We MAY have a difference of opinion. I'm not saying he should be sacked if he celebrated. I didn't post this, as you can see if you read correctly. I'm saying it should be curtains if it was online him celebrating. Big difference.

I'm afraid you've failed to make any coherent point. Have another go...

How about quoting the posts when others were getting "worked up" and debating the point? Any fucking idiot can make bland generic statements. Get specific man.

Why would it make the press if we were 8th? Don't you understand the difference?

Nobody has said drop him etc. UNLESS HE WAS CAUGHT ONLINE CELEBRATING THE GOAL. Some people on social media are saying he was celebrating it. I hope this hasn't been captured and trust that the club will deal with it internally. It would be game over for him if he was caught celebrating it. It would be incredibly stupid if these allegations are true but we could live with it for four months hopefully if it's not out there online, which it hasn't appeared to be. The history of McGinn and Sellick is relevant to any internal mentoring now required, as is his relationship with the gaffer.

I'm not sure if you're being deliberately obtuse here or if you're just a thick cunt but nobody has said tar and feather the cunt. My suggestion was 1. mentor him, tell him to wise up and move on, or 2. if he was caught celebrating a goal of our opposition, sack him. That's all I said. If you can't read what was posted properly, don't waste everyone's time inventing pish. Since it's such a simple open and shut case, it appears to me that cunts saying it's ok for him to attend, ignoring or deliberately forgetting what he did at Parkhead and after it came out about the Celtic fundraiser, are just trying to show what nice and "reasonable" liberal open-minded cunts they are. Wankers is what they are. The same wankers who wouldn't hear any criticism of Calderclown and Clangfud. This is dynamite that has the potential to upset the dressing room. It's a disgrace and he needs to be told to wise the fuck up. We can't afford to lose him for the run-in but he has to produce now. He has needlessly put himself under the microscope and created a diversion we didn't need, playing right into the wos media hands.

No it's not the same, given McGinn's previous. There is a fundamental difference here. If he had been caught online celebrating a Celtic goal on Monday, then I would have him sacked immediately. This is also something I'm guessing you wouldn't understand and yet, gross misconduct for which every employment tribunal in the land would see as justifiable dismissal. Now opinion this time, pure speculation as I don't know the two of them personally, I don't feel that McGinn is giving his all for McInnes. It is fact that Derek is everything that McGinn is not. He's not a thick ugly Deputy Dawg lookalike for a start and he is articulate and intelligent, something well beyond the realm of most footballers and particularly McGinn. He's also ex Rangers, something that very thick indoctrinated kafflicks would detest. That's fact too. Why McGinn has never produced what he's capable of under McInnes is the speculation. That he hasn't produced is fact. A minute before Clangers screamed at McGinn during the St Murn away game a year or so back, a scream we heard from the opposite end of the pitch, I similarly had an outburst against McGinn, the first time this century I shouted at an AFC player. Even though he, and every one else in the stand heard me, it made no difference. He continued to be shite that game, that month and that enduring few months. McGinn has an attitude problem and McInnes stood by him when he was screaming to be dropped. That we've had good contributions from him this season is great but still nowhere near what he was doing pre-McInnes, scoring goals and looking sharp as fuck. What his attitude problem is, only those in the mix will know. That he has one is fact. Attending that game on Monday may or may not be related to the attitude problem. The fact that he attended, on top of his other pro-Celtic stuff, was shocking.

You're learning! *winksmileymileykylie* There is a difference between opinions and facts. McGinn's "apology" for scoring at Parkhead was bad enough. His attendance at this game, especially given the SPL right now was folly. It is fact that it was a stupid thing to do, the third (at least) time he has rubbed our noses in it. How many more times does he have to display his love for what he thinks Celtic represents to him before you see it?

Exactly. It's not a massive issue. He just needs to be told to THINK, to not do it again and wisen the fuck up. End of. For anyone not to see this is incredible. Fucking morons. Politically correct morons. As for fans "arguing about it" online possibly affecting the team, who's getting up themselves now? It's only opinion-sharing. If you (ED and others) don't like it, then learn to follow what I say... carefully. You might learn something. Or have the balls to confront us directly and tell us where we're going wrong.

Is there a problem? Undoubtedly. The solution? Mentor him, tell him not to be so stupid, for reasons too obvious, don't do it again, let's move on. Danger; he's so thick and the culture is so vile that he reacts badly to any mentoring coming from his manager, accusing it of being unfair and motivated by him being a hun.

Is it political correctness governing you wankers? Can't see a problem? What he does in his spare time etc.? The only team he should be supporting is the one paying him. Do you think Miller, McLeish and Leighton would have been so stupid, or allowed to be?

McGinn needs to be mentored. Undoubtedly an excellent talent for SPL level, he's not getting anywhere near the maximum from himself and hasn't done since his purple patch when he was scoring regularly for 2/3 months and famously for his country in a shock result in Portugal. His value isn't necessarily goal-scoring as he is a tremendous runner and distributor, able to control the ball, come inside and deliver meaningful passes which we generally squander anyway, and the shots he does get in have a habit of being deflected onto woodwork. If there are football gods, they're testing him just now and he needs to deliver when it matters i.e. the next four months. Given the mistakes he's been making both on and off the pitch, I doubt very much that he will come through for us. The unique poison of the Old Firm culture in this country makes it almost impossible for McInnes to do the mentoring on this occasion.

Fascism, ignorance and tedium in one short snapshot. Some going! Your right to tell another what to do with his own money might have had a foundation if you had any specialist skill or knowledge but to then dismiss "gambling" as horrible demonstrates an incredible stupidity of the way of the world. It's "gamblers", speculators, innovators, inventors, market-seekers and creators who create the wealth that pays the wages of the boring bastards who push pens around in the public sector, draining the economy and adding zero value. The wealth-creators also pay for the excellent NHS staff and unfortunately the quango cunts who are ruining it, installed by corrupt politicians who also get paid for by "gamblers". Without gambling, all you tedious bastards would have been found out long ago.

Some lovely football at times. Never a pen but Collum is a clown and should have given the corner minutes earlier after a good save from GW. Great 3 points. Fantastic defensive record keeping on going. Brown had nothing to do in terms of shot stopping. Rooney and Pawlett headers HAD TO hit the target. GW should have scored too. Someone is due a hiding from this team. Jack is a class act. Need more from Hayes currently. PP isn't contributing consistently enough neither over the last few weeks, although well taken goal at ICT. Phenomenal run of form. Keep it going.

If a punter has a ticket at 40/1 and the best odds you'll get now is 11/1, why would you think he is "very silly"?

I don't normally do this. In fact I never do. Good wishes from me to strangers just doesn't happen. But you know what, if ever there was a time to change the habit of a lifetime, it's now. To all Donstalkers and to most Dons fans everywhere, I wish you a fucking excellent year. The goal is to get to this time next year, look back on a good year and feel the catharsis of cutting out any shit in your life. It's a wonderful feeling knowing that things are (mainly) under control. You have to be ruthless to get there but my friends, take some good advice; cut out any cancers from your life, remove yourself from negative people and negative environs. Find the courage to do what you know you should. Hogmanay this year represents my best feeling yet. It's a quiet one for me, having been away all day mixing family time and work and whilst I know that tragedy can happen any time and we can't control fate or destiny, it's important to recognise the good times when they occur and smell the coffee/roses/hashish, whatever your poison. Have a fucking great 2015 people. If AFC get it right, this can be a good contributor too. Cheers.
