Not the happiest with Johnson.
Not sure what his complaints are. Was injured the whole time. Should be grateful LJ took a chance on him at all
Does that bloke ever have anything positive to say about anyone other than himself. He should be grateful LJ signed off a years wages for him, what did we get in return🙈
The fact that he brought him back in at Sunderland and then chose to sign for him afterwards suggests he had respect for him.Quote:

He's playing for Ayr United for a reason. Don't think LJ was anything but respectful to him in the media. Terrific player when fit but he hardly ever was and sure he picked up a fantastic wage. We've moved on, he should too.
I think I only saw him once and he went off injured
Poor mcgeady getting paid 7k a week or whatever to do **** all cos he’s always injured and through in Glasgow watching Celtic games whilst we’re playing
Another one who contributed little when he was here.
Red flags all over his fitness/injuries prior to joining Hibs.
Took more than he gave while he was here and yet another lamentable signing made over the last couple of years.
Had quick feet for an auld guy on his day probably the best player in the league just couldn’t stay fit long enough
Was it worth the investment probably no
LJ more than showed faith in him just didn’t work out sadly but loved watching him while it lasted
Made of glass whilst on a hefty wage and loved a trip to Lennoxtown - get it up him. Not a loss for us in the slightest.
About 8 months ago McGeady was a great signing, no one could have foreseen his injury and there was no way anyone could question the recruitment team and their decision to sign him.
Fast forward to now and he's a disrespectful wage thief and there were all kinds of red flags before we even signed him.
You have to love football fans:greengrin
Typical media click bait as it’s hardly “blasting” LJ. From watching the clip it sounds more like a tongue in cheek comment than a dig.

OK Aiden, thanks for contributing **** all and keeping the treatment table warm. Please don't return to ER again, ta.
Face like a skelpt arse and an attitude to match.
I deeply disliked him before he joined us but I knew the Sunderland fans held him in high regard so was prepared to give him a chance.
When fit, I thought he looked like he was still an absolutely cracking football player and it’s a real shame he was injured as much as he was. The glimpses when injury free were great though.
Now he’s gone though and started this - it just appears once more that he’s a torn-faced ********. I don’t like ungratefulness, and to chuck this in the direction of a manager who has signed him and backed him a few times well into his thirties and who he’s been unable to repay due to injury reflects badly on McGeady.
I love the football player, can’t stick the man.
The headline doesn't really match the interview as per usual. Odd signing. Poor attitude. No hibs connection from him at all.

Does that count as throwing LJ under a bus?
(Cue the "I'd throw him under a bus" remarks. :wink:)
Watching the VT looks like he was looking / hoping for an extension to his existing contract
Eh No!
Plenty people questioned the decision to sign him due to his injuries.Quote:

Laugh-a-minute.
So engaging you could listen to him for hours.
Was pretty sure this signing wouldn't work out at the time and said so, given his age and probable injury proneness.
With the exception of a couple of short spells, the scepticism was well founded sadly
That's true, but they were made up injuries.Quote:

Sunderland was a knee injury, and his Hibs one was totally unrelated.
He's missed 86 games over 13 years, or just under 7 a season and that's when you include a full season out at Hibs. Prior to that was 52 games in 12 years, or 4 a season.

What was the point?
Had he not just missed the whole second half of his last season at Sunderland, getting fit enough to play (but not being selected to do so) right at the very end of that season?Quote:

It sounds like he's annoyed we didn't offer him another contract but surely he can't have any complaints after having missed so much football with us through injury?
LJ must have thrown him under the bus, pulled him to safety, then chucked him under again. Sounds nasty.Quote:

If he disliked LJ that much, it says a lot about his principles that he signed for him again because,
presumably, we made the highest offer.
McGeady comes across as like a woman scorned, tbh.
Would genuinely rather listen to Craig Levein talk about his favourite carpet samples for eight hours than one minute of an Aiden McGeady interview.
No doubt he’ll be out for another four months after the exertion of that interview.
Exactly.Quote:
