    Niall McGinn

    MK Dons are keen on a move for former Aberdeen forward Niall McGinn, who is a free agent after an unsuccessful stint in South Korea, with Hibs, Hearts and the Pittodrie club all interested in the 30-year-old Northern Ireland international. (Daily Express, print edition)

    Would be a good signing.

    Would take him. Wouldn't mind also trying to see about Hayes on loan.

    Would fit right into the Kris Commons role.

    Niall McGinn

    Not a chance as my Yam chums reckon it’s the mega tiny park he’s destined for!

    He should ask Laugherty how his move to the Galacticos turned out.

    Aberdeen being manager less might help us with this one.

    Could follow McInnes to the Huns?

    He'll go with whoever offers him the most money.

    Would love if it was us.

    It's strikers we need - guys who can stick the ball in the net on a consistent basis...

    Turning the amount of chances we make into goals would be very pleasing ...

    Good player our level. Live cup match at pbs following our brilliant home support may give us financial advantage to do this one. Can't see him going to Aberdeen and why would he want to join a club facing a relegation battle and play in turd colour?

    He’ll go to where he will get the best financial deal. Can’t see us being it

    Who will pay more in Scotland? Neilson will be punted from MK soon enough and he knows/played under Lennon before. Good match for someone like him.

    Aberdeen and Hearts will both pay
    more than us Dons will have funds and Hearts are desperate for a McGinn type player..they will dig deep

    Why will MKD sack Neilson? Mid table and as near the playoff places as the relegation places.

    He's a very good player (relative to other players in Scotland) but i'm not sure he is the type of player we need especially considering he will be on a big wage. Boyle ,Barker and Swanson all play a similar role and I would reckon a centre forward is more of a priority in the window.

    Swanson hasn’t kicked a ball this season and Barker is still on zero goals.

    Danny has had alot to deal with both on and off the park this season but if he gets fully fit for 2018 he can make a big impact. Barker has been a decent signing and I suspect someone who we might get the best out of when teams attack us.

    McGinn is a good player and I wont be unhappy if he signs I just think the priority is a centre forward.

    I agree on the last point. Centre forward should be the priority.

    I think Danny should go on loan, help kick start his season.

    They've been ***** this season. 4 off relegation 11 off the playoffs.

    I don't see how they two clubs will pay more to be honest. Especially should Super John go.

    I don't know what type of player he is, and whilst I wouldn't disagree about needing a proven goal scoring striker, I believe our problems lie more with the lack of a goal scoring midfield player. As good as SJM & Dylan are on the ball, they just do not contribute enough to the goals for column (in Dylan's case, not at all).
    Every team will go through a period where their strikers are not scoring, this where the midfield, and others, need to be contributing, it is probably our main weakness.

    He is a quality player though. Once he is back up to speed it will be like having a new signing and i would like to have him available to us for the rest of the season rather than off playing elsewhere.

    I hope Hibernian do move in for him. Good player and i think he would fit in well with this Hibs team.

    Do you think that would help?

    I think he just needs to put his issues aside and focus on playing for the OGs.

    McGinn is better than Boyle,Barker and Swanson so I would certainly take someone who I have no doubt would improve us.
