Yes I would rather he left for nothing in the summer then our club be bullied into accepting an offer that's not good enough. I would not at all be happy with our board if we let another club walk all over us.

there's no way the actual fee we receive in the end will be disclosed in any deal for mcginn if Celtic are the winning bidder.which hibs fans have a right to know imo.no felt this disappointed in a while!!I will say this though Celtic have had a good track record of facilitating us recently in any dealings we've had with them, so I hope they realise McGinn is the best Scottish midfielder around today and act accordingly!!

If Celtc are the only club to bid for a player who we have clearly put up for sale, then our valuation is irrelevant.

@Hibbyradge
In a way but we hold a valuation on him and after Lennon going on about 5 Million and watching him as a player over the past 3/4 Years if we were to sell short to Celtic I would be fuming. Conceding his valuation because he would walk free in the summer wouldn't make me feel any less robbed.

I remember how Gary Caldwell was treated after he signed a pre-contract. I don't want that to happen to SJM.

He's not an idle asset that will just sit there gathering dust and depreciating in value until he leaves, every week he plays and contributes to us finishing higher up the league or competing in cups he is adding value to the club. If we feel we can't improve the club with the money Celtic are offering then his value to us outweighs the transfer value being offered so he stays.

We will NOT let SJM run down his contract - we will sell. The player calls the shots as to where he moves also...Last edited by IWasThere2016; 03-07-2018 at 11:28 AM.

Wherever John ends up lets make sure we include a healthy sell on percentage to any deal.

Couple of things to bear in mind here.
There probably isn't anyone in the country better qualified than Neil Lennon to know how Celtc think, what they want and what is most likely to work with them when it comes to negotiations.
McGinn has two values - what another club will pay and/or exchange for him and what he would be worth to us on the park for another season. If Celtc want him they will have to offer a value in cash and/or players that exceeds the on the field value. If he leaves at the end of his contract we get nothing but we also owe St Mirren nothing. If he leaves in contract then the third that goes to St Mirren will have to be taken account of when setting the value of the offer against his value to us on the pitch for another season.
In a team of Petrie, Dempster and Lennon there is just no way we are going to get short changed. In other words if we deal, it will be because in net terms it's a good deal for us, otherwise we won't deal.
My tuppence worth on a deal: We want Scott Allan, Griffiths on loan for two years and cash - let's call it £2.25M. That's valuing McGinn at just over £3m, which is about fair enough I reckon.
Oh and Celtc, pay St Mirren for us would you, there's a good vampire.

How much we need to improve the team, or even keep it on an even keel, only Neil Lennon knows.
It's all academic anyway. I'm sure we'll receive a higher offer which we'll accept. I hope it's not from Celtc though.

Why would Celtic want to do that when they could save themselves a fee by just getting a pre signed in January.

Does anyone actually know what St Mirren's cut is? Or is the 1/3rd thing this year's £150k for Leigh Griffiths from Wolves?

If Celtic sign him it will be to use him, not loan back to us.

Ideal scenario for me would be he goes down south and we still get Allan, but I reckon that Allan coming to Hibs will hinge on SJM going to Celtic. In that case, if the money is right, I’m happy for him to go.

We have an asset of a footballer and someone who can contribute to our continued success on and off the pitch.
We should only sell if an offer is on our terms and if we run the risk of losing him for nothing next year than so be it. We have no need to accept paltry offers.
