Hammer Jag Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Stuart Bannigan was without a doubt one of the outstanding midfielders in the Scottish Premiership last season - a level considerably higher than the league McGinn is currently playing in. Only a horrendous injury robbed him of a move to either Aberdeen or the English Championship. In fairness, your knowledge of the Premiership may not be the best given the fact you're a Hibs fan. So it's perfectly understandable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely frightening. You might be frightened, but I'm confident McGinn is good enough to take on the superstars of Malta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul-r-cfc Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Wolves coming in for Rhodes. Shame it doesn't look like he'll get any sort of a chance at Boro. Nugent came on ahead of him again yesterday in the 91st minute Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not going to make it at Boro, and the manager's piece to the media the other day was basically a massive For Sale advertisement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M0rtonfc Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 I'll be utterly baffled if Griffiths doesn't start this game, it will be a game more suiting to him running in behind and we will obviously get a number of changes. If he doesn't get a start against fucking Malta then he'd be as well telling Strachan to shove the caps up his arse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A shame that he hasn't even had the chance to sink let alone swim in the EPL. He played a big part in their preseason and shone and scored against good opposition (some La Liga teams IIRC), so it seems quite severe to jettison him without even a sniff of action. Perhaps Boro have a deal for a replacement striker waiting in the wings and just want to get their money back for Rhodes. Would be ace if another EPL team took him off their hands, but little sign of that happening. Maybe things will change if bids start coming in...

A headless chicken who runs about a lot and gives you everything, but technically very average. A ten-a-penny, Scottish midfielder. I bet most ten-a-penny Scottish players would give their left baw to achieve what he has achieved in his short career already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGinn has already achieved more than SB ever will. HammerJag is always trying to have a dig a Super John McGinn, it was the same last time he was in the squad. Think he even described him as a wee ned, which is the last thing you would call him. He's a very down to earth, humble young man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizfit Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 I've no problem calling him up whilst he plays in the championship, he's still young and is playng at a side that should really be in the top division. Definitely a long term call up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slacker Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 I would've had McCormack and Cooper in the squad. 4-1-4-1 for Malta away. Marshall Paterson - Martin - Hanley - Robertson McArthur Forrest - Snodgrass - Morrison - Ritchie Griffiths Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a very down to earth, humble young man. The Wee man is a big McGinn fan so I took him down to east mains last season to see the players as they were leaving and I thought McGinn would sign his top and want to get off back home but he stood and spoke to him and me about Stubbs and the boys for a good 15 minutes.Top guy.

Incidentally I have no problem with McGinn being in the Scotland squad. 6 minutes ago, ulysses said: Just seen some cretin on my Facebook feed moaning about Lee Hodson and Kenny Miller not being in the squad Who the f**k is Lee Hodson?

What you're up against Not getting why McGinn is a problem either.

ecto Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 This squad has the stench of past failures, cannot see this changing this time either, clock is now ticking on Strachan's tenure, an indifferent start and he should be gone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
