Is he maybe another youngster who's reached a certain level and stopped, much like Stanton, Handling etc, it happens in football where their levels just plateau, they can't all be 1st teamers.

sad but true
I was one of them 60 odd years ago !!

When McGinn leaves he will get more game time IMO, as others have said it's a shame for him that we have our best midfield select of the last decade to choose from.

I'd have thought when McGinn leaves we're likely to sign a quality replacement.
Happy to be proved wrong but so far Martin has looked like a solid squad player - tidy player but not banging the door down to move up the pecking order.

Slightly different positions but at the moment I think Fraser Murray looks much more likely to get game time.
2 years younger, almost the same amount of games as Martin and looks to have a bit of X-factor about him.
Hoping he pushes on and doesn't stagnate.

Plus side is that it's nice to be having these kind of debates about good players not able to get a game right now. It'll also hopefully push them to be better players.

I think he has been quality when given a chance and strongly disagree with folk who have said he has done ok.

Lennon himself stated earlier in the year Martin has a big future in Scottish football.

It might not be with us, but I back him to be a success.
