McGinn..
I was at Villa Park today, Villa v. Everton. John McGinn absolutely superb all afternoon. Was the architect of everything Villa did, superb performance.
Good result for Villa but really poor Everton.

He’ll be too busy inside Joe Newell’s pocket to cause us any issues :wink:Quote:

"But John has been saying for months he's desperate for a Scottish team. Whether that be Hearts or Hibs, maybe even Aberdeen if they dropped down to the Conference.
"When the tie came out for Hibs vs Luzern, I think a small section of Birmingham celebrated the Jordan Obita goal quite heavily.
"Wherever it was in Europe it was going to be special for John...to do it at Easter Road where the Hibs fans are fond of him, he's desperate to get back there. Personally it will be a special night for him and the family."

He won't leave us until his legs have gone I reckon, we don't need to sell and he's now captain of the best Villa side in decades.Quote:

Well yeah, fair enough, but that was our 7th win, and the closest anyone else was at the time was 4, and now there's a bunch of clubs with more including tinpot ***** like Chelsea and Man City, I think Wenger won it 8 times on his own.
I'm not bitter though.
Slightly off topic, but it will never fail to make me smile to see Chelsea spending hundreds of millions of pounds just to get pumped week in, week out.Quote:

Read this article and thought it was a decent read .

If any season ticket holder wins the scottish cup in a hibs strip, then I’m happy for their mum and dad and second cousins twice removed to have free priority tickets 😊Quote:

Hope he doesn't and has a poor game against us though once our two legs with Villa are over . I'm right back to wishing a Hibs legend nothing but the best .Quote:
