    Please NO - this pre season is steadily getting worse by the day.

    It'll have to be considerable, £2.5 million plus a loan back and a sell on fee.

    His brother Stephen used to play for Watford. Hopefully someone ran across an old story.

    Someone close to McGinn told me that Watford put a bid in yesterday.

    Not claiming to be in the know or anything hence why I asked if anybody has heard anything.

    I get a bit confused with managers coming and going down south, do Watford have a manger just now?

    And Watford to rename their main stand "the famous five stand"

    Watford previously bid for him when he was at St Mirren around 2014-15. Maybe been watching him closely since.....

    It would need to be a significant chunk of change as he's a international player and they are a premiership club.

    Watford turned down £40m for Ighalo last year so money obviously isn't an issue for them. £5m minimum for McGinn.

    Hopefully no substance to this one. If we lose both McGinn and Cummings this summer I'd be pretty disappointed and would expect them club to invest very heavily in the transfer market.

    I will be a bit p@@@ed off if we lose both tbh and if we do we need to get some serious business done...and quickly.

    Record ST sales please show some ambition hold on to Mcginn and concentrate on signing some midfielders and strikers.

    Get SJM on a new improved deal and convince him to stay at least another year - similar to what we did with JC last summer

    I will be pleasantly surprised if John McGinn is a Hibs player next season.

    Provided we could get around £2.5m now and it all went to the playing budget I'd be tempted to take it. The budget we'd have with the Cummings money and this would allow us to build an incredibly strong squad over the next 2-3 years, not just for this season. Still plenty of time until the start of the league season as well.

    I'd also be happy for him to stay and sign on for an additional year or two, but he's not irreplaceable on his form from last season.

    I thought we'd only lose one of Cummings and McGinn.. Losing both would be a nightmare heading into our first season back in the Premier. If we are serious about challenging for the top four, this isn't the way to do it.

    We haven't even showed signs of spending Cummings money yet, there's no guarantee we'd spend money from the sale of McGinn either. I want us to keep our best players.

    Def silly season for the rumours! Lennon away, McGinn's away, Mcgregor away....Next the yams will make a bid for Easter road as they've realised tiny Tynie is a dump and not fit for purpose, even with their super stand, and Edinburgh city will make a bid for our training ground.

    Think there is a few jealous jambos on here trying to bring us back down to their level of mediocrity

    Money to add in Boyce, Henderson, Commons and Moult to the squad on top of Marciano and Whittaker and re-sign Fyvie?

    Begining to wonder why there appears to be a slew of negative post coming one after another.
