Madbadteacher Posted May 17, 2013 Report Posted May 17, 2013 I expect him to sign for another 3 years with little fuss. Then he and Hayes will guide us to our first trophies (yes plural) for nearly 20 years. The first part has come true.......... Quote
maverick sheep Posted May 17, 2013 Report Posted May 17, 2013 The first part has come true.......... no it hasn't - he signed for 2 years. maths isn't your strong point i take it? Quote
tom_widdows Posted May 17, 2013 Report Posted May 17, 2013 no it hasn't - he signed for 2 years. maths isn't your strong point i take it? Contract extension to technically he has signed on 3 years Let the debate begin Quote
BigAl Posted May 17, 2013 Report Posted May 17, 2013 Alternatively he'll sign on with the minimum of fuss and we'll punt him to the first party that offers £250k with the cash being utilised to reduce long term debt. MBT.....not the only one who has got the first correct, just hope the second part of mine doesn't come true. I was in a customer meeting in the Weeg when I got the text, and let out a very loud YES Some guy who claims he follows the howkers, says in response, is he the boy that Celtic let go. Just goes to show how current he actually is on Scottish football. Quote
CtS Posted May 17, 2013 Report Posted May 17, 2013 Disappointing comment IMHO. What about a new top class keeper? Think he's maybe just emphasising the importance of McGinn committing his future to the club rather than saying "Don't get your hopes up for any more decent signings". Hope so anyway! Quote
tlg1903 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Posted May 17, 2013 Just found out, this is brilliant. Happy Friday folks! Quote
manc_don Posted August 22, 2016 Report Posted August 22, 2016 Not bothering starting a new topic on this one but the P&J reporting that he's going to sign a new deal. Would be delighted if this is the case. Aberdeen midfielder Niall McGinn is ready to commit his future to the club. The Northern Ireland international is out of contract at the end of the season but is ready to begin talks about a new deal after expressing his desire to stay at Pittodrie. McGinn, who scored his club’s first league goal of the season in their 2-1 win against Partick Thistle on Saturday, is in no rush to leave Pittodrie. He said: “I spoke to the manager before the Euros but I wanted to get that out of the way and the European games done and the season up and running first. I am sure we will get something sorted out soon. “I’m in the last year of my contract but I’ve enjoyed my time here and long may it continue. I’m close to 60 goals here and I want to keep plugging away and score a few more.” The former Celtic midfielder showed his value to the club with a fine free kick to open the scoring against the Jags and hopes his goal will earn him another chance at free kicks on a regular basis. He said: “I was working on my free kicks during the week. Peter Pawlett felt confident he could hit the target and score but he was unlucky with his effort. When the second one came up I wanted to have a go and I was delighted to see it hit the back of the net. Hopefully, that’s me on free kicks for another week at least. “We’ve been working on things such as working a better angle to get a cross. We could have got a few more goals which would have meant not inviting pressure on us towards the end, but we got two goals which was good.” The win sets the Dons up nicely for a Parkhead test on Saturday when they face champions Celtic for the first time this season. McGinn believes it is a game his side can face with confidence. He said: “We’ve shown over the last couple of seasons we’re more capable of beating Celtic. They’ve strengthened and have brought in a great manager and we are under no illusions as to how difficult it will be. But it’s nice for us and we will be confident against them. “We’ve got experience from the European games which will help us at Parkhead. It will be a tough game but one we are looking forward to. Since I arrived we have improved massively every year and we want to maintain that consistency on the pitch.” Quote
Jute Posted August 22, 2016 Report Posted August 22, 2016 This will not go down well with the bigoted clowns who were giving McGinn stick on Saturday. Personally think it's great news. Quote

Tyrant Posted August 30, 2016 Author Report Posted August 30, 2016 Just catching up on this news. It's a shame he didn't turn up against the Tims but I'm very happy that he looks to be staying on. Quote
rocket_scientist Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 Just catching up on this news. It's a shame he didn't turn up against the Tims but I'm very happy that he looks to be staying on. In a game where the team spirit to win the game didn't turn up, it's harsh to single out him. He at least created the opportunity which led to our goal. Even if his slow turn embarrassed the defence. That's just it. Celtic are shit. We are shitter. Quote
OxfordDon Posted January 27, 2017 Report Posted January 27, 2017 Hemmin Niall, just sign the bloody thing - yer nae going anywhere, we winnae let you. edit - i've just realised how the title of this (old) thread may be construed, apologies to anyone i've just given a heart attack to Quote
1903_Redz Posted January 28, 2017 Report Posted January 28, 2017 With Niall now having scored 4 in his last two games, it's going to be interesting to see how he performs against the dhims on Wed.... I've no shame in admitting that i have accused him of not putting in 100% against them in the past, so i'd love for him to stuff my words down my throat. C'mon min, keep up the good work against those horrible bastards! Quote
manc_don Posted January 28, 2017 Report Posted January 28, 2017 Awww man, you got me excited there!! Quote

A llad insane Posted January 28, 2017 Report Posted January 28, 2017 I thought Niall was turning in a few tired performances before his break & i must admit to slating him a few times. Since he came back he has been stunning, last night, he was simply immense, one assist & 2 goals, 2 against Stranraer aswell. Hope he's nae playing for a move Quote
OxfordDon Posted January 28, 2017 Report Posted January 28, 2017 Hope he's nae playing for a move Maybe he's playing full of confidence and settled, having decided to stay Either way, i'd rather having him play well than nae, even if it means him leaving at the end of the season (caveat - nae to Hearts).

manc_don Posted February 6, 2017 Report Posted February 6, 2017 Won goal of the month for his volley against Dundee Quote
BigAl Posted February 6, 2017 Report Posted February 6, 2017 Won goal of the month for his volley against Dundee A worthy winner Quote
OxfordDon Posted February 6, 2017 Report Posted February 6, 2017 Got to be a contender for goal of the season, never mind month Quote
gogsred Posted February 7, 2017 Report Posted February 7, 2017 Got to be a contender for goal of the season, never mind month Yes but interesting to note who gave the assist for the goal - the much maligned Taylor. Quote
RicoS321 Posted February 7, 2017 Report Posted February 7, 2017 Yes but interesting to note who gave the assist for the goal - the much maligned Taylor. It's not that interesting. Quote
BigAl Posted February 7, 2017 Report Posted February 7, 2017 Won goal of the month for his volley against Dundee Now get the new contract signed Niall Quote
