DukDukGoose Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Fucking hell. Been away this weekend and logged on for the first time in a few days to see four pages to catch up on. Assumed there was some transfer gossip. Nope, just the not obsessed Random guy taking several shots at McInnes. RG is in desperate need of a ride. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmcg94 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Just still bit concerned - lost a lot of quality with shinnie GMS and Lowe leaving. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saw Swansea want 20+m for McBurnie! you're vastly underselling your player by that yardstick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anotherchance Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Not at all, I think the squad is shaping up quite well, just a little concerned Thursday might come a bit too soon for us. Know what you mean, but would hope we’d still have enough. For instance, I’d have no qualms having Deano and Ferguson starting in the middle if required.Always into the unknown in the early rounds in Europe so you won’t be alone with the nervousness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can keep him fit, he'll be an important player. He is also very good at protecting the full-backs - really hard worker, which sometimes goes unnoticed due to his hangdog demeanour at times.

Dons_1988 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 The relationship between McGinn and the Aberdeen support has always been a weird one. There’s a section of the support that cannot wait to jump down his throat when he is perceived to be not trying or having a shite game. He’s a classy player but inconsistent, always has been. Classic cliche but if McGinn consistently played at his potential he’d be nowhere near us. However, I think he is slowing down and injuries are becoming more frequent so id be reluctant to be too reliant on him this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellAnderson Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 "Today's mascot is RussellAnderson, he's 25 years old from Peterculter and his favourite player is Niall McGinn!" I adore him. I've said it before, but no player has scored as many *good* goals as him in my time supporting Aberdeen. He was also the first player I can remember who didn't f**k off after his first good season. I can still remember when he signed that 4 year deal after his first season, it was off the back of Fraser and I was convinced he was away. Leeds were interested IIRC. He stayed, and he became an Aberdeen hero. If he wins another trophy, he's a legend. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people have never been able to get past his Celtic connections though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzza81 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 I think the fact he’s a bit of a shagger around the city doesn’t help himself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard from one or two girls on the receiving end that he’s a bit tragic in his relentlessness. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellAnderson Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 I genuinely heard that he likes to steal girls’ socks after he’s banged them. It sounds totally made up but someone told me that with a straight face. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Brown, of all people, had been quoted that McGinn's flat in Torremolinos Kepplestone, may as well have had a turnstile on the door. Not sure about the sock thing, and presumably he'd ideally be looking for top of the range lingerie in his conquests, but he's a relatively young bloke, footloose and fancy free - so good luck to him.

I love Niall McGinn, he can look as disinterested as he wants, he is still one of the most talented footballers we have had in my lifetime. If I could pick one player out of our squad o be on the end of a half chance or to deliver a dead ball it would be Niall. I am also strongly of the opinion that without him and his goals in season 2012/13 then we would have been right in a relegation dogfight that I am not convinced we would have come out of... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
