smellthepaw Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Would be very happy if we signed McGinn. For me he's been your best player for the last 2 seasons. Complete passenger last season when so much was expected of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AberdeenBud Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Tough one, can see why the club would want to take some cash and just move on but at the same time we're more than within our rights to stand our ground and push for a tribunal. The danger then is if no one takes him on, as 250k+ is quite steep, and we're left with a guy who doesn't want to play for us and/or he's frozen out of football.

He has to look after his own interests as do the club . I think we'll settle for less than we are due ( surprise surprise ) . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AberdeenBud Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Aye I agree he's been terribly advised and part of me wants us to play hardball but it doesn't really benefit anyone if it comes to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Have watched your tv games. Does that include the two we lost by an aggregate of 8-0 the other two sides in the bottom two? The £270k or whatever we only get if he goes down south. There's no set fee if he goes to a Scottish club, hence the tribunal. We'd be as well going to that rather than taking £100k as we surely wouldn't be awarded any less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Maybe a bit late now but - the teamline from the game today... Howieson is really good, but went off in the first half, not sure how serious (although Gilchrist for Burnley was away to Hospital with an ankle injury in a seperate incident). St Mirren played well in parts. Moore good target upfront but a bit isolated. I suspect that one or two of your subs will be getting the morning after pill.

thomas Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 That was mcginn choice not ours. Definitely this, anything under 200k then go to a tribunal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddieInDundee Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Why did he go ahead with sueing the club, knowing full well the ball was in our court when it came to him finding a new club in the summer? Hard not to feel sorry for him though, a monumental waste of potential talent if he's just left to rot. As someone mentioned above, it wouldn't surprise me if we just let him away for less.

Suing made no difference to McGinn's status at the club and I suspect it made no difference to the club's attitude over a transfer. We'd still have wanted the maximum money claim or not.

We'd still have wanted the maximum money claim or not. Surely it would have been beneficial for him from a negotiating point of view? Ifs buts and maybes I know, but if he hadn't sued I reckon the board would have been prepared to let him go for a bit less, and could be just doing a massive FU to him now. Far fetched, but you never know how things went on behind the scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
