Official Site: STEPHEN McGINN COMPLETES MOVE

Paul McGinn came in as a starter from another side, one of their better players by all accounts, when we desperately needed someone in that position due to injury. This is not the same at all.

Absolutely no one has written him off either.

They have Jammy Doidge and a number of other negative comments. Stephen McGinn has played at a decent level down south.

He will come in and do a job when asked.

My observation/perception.

Or maybe it’s just taken a while for both sides to negotiate an acceptable deal?

Not having that. Signings like this is what holds back our younger players aswell. Much rather play a youngster for the odd game Mcginn will play. Pointless signing for me. Just keep every penny and throw it at a starter!

Right but he's shown nothing to suggest he is the level of Paul McGinn never mind John. Paul actually played and was wanted by that St Mirren side.





It doesn't matter really, does it. 2 guys left for nothing, both of whom are better than Stephen McGinn IMO.


I just really don't understand this signing. If his name wasn't McGinn and he didn't have a decent game against us about 4 years ago, plenty others would be unhappy as well. Bizarre signing when the money could be going to a real quality player in an area we desperately need one.

You're easily confused eh?

He's helped out for nothing since we started back, good seasoned pro with experience who'll be on very little in the grand scheme of things.hell still help put Ross and cover if needed and unless you're privy to the money Hibs have, how do you know what is available money wise for players, the pish some folk come out with.

Firstly, he is nothing like Gogic as a player. At all.

Second, why is he a leader? Because he captained a gash St Mirren side? Gray, McGregor, Hanlon. Those guys are leaders and cup winners.

Can I ask you, do you trust Jack Ross and his signings so far

[MacGruber]

Good move, we can put the hotel up now

Young players shouldn't be playing odd games. They're better playing every week on loan.

I'm always amazed how bitter some Hibs fans can come across if some aspect of Hibs business doesn't meet their approval.

You some sort of expert on players? Doubt very much if you know anything about him but it doesn’t stop you stirring s—-. Why don’t you leave signings in the capable hands of the manager and stick to supporting the club.

It’s the same old posters though
They’d be better off posting on kickback, as I don’t think there real Hibs supporters, the way they continually knock everything we do

[HibbyAndy]

Welcome stephen


Decent cover and probably not on a lot

Ross is giving game time to our youngsters, if they are good enough like Doig, he plays them. Maybe the rest of them just aren’t good enough. I’m struggling to think of anyone other than Scott Martin who has left us recently and gone on to do well for another club.

Don't make it personal with your usual daft comments mate.

You keep saying he is on bla bla money. I bet he is on more than we missed out on McCrorie on.

Cover? For what? He is nothing like Gogic.

Seasoned pro? Millions of them around.

[blaikie]

Can we call him Ringo!

[Pilrig_Sauzee]

Under circumstances I’m happy about this. Maybe coincidence but as a team we are looking more solid and consistent with a core of Scottish players the managers knows and trusts. We won’t be doing a Hearts and have on film star wages for 5 years. Suspect it suited both parties, although each may have had a different plan A.

Right I’m off to change my last name to see if i can get mysef signed as well.

I can't imagine why anybody would get upset at us signing a proven Premiership quality player, with an excellent family history at the club, as inexpensive backup.

Stephen brings experience, leadership, value to HTC and he can certainly play a bit too. This signing makes perfect sense for both parties.

When you see the posters who’re reacting in the way you are does it really surprise you?

A cheap, low cost, back up squad player with vast experience.

Can’t say im overly happy with this but willing to give the benefit of the doubt.

Hes been training with us since we started back up but it’s took us until now to sign him on a 1 year deal? Seems very like we’ve not got who we’ve wanted and this is the back ups back up.

Its not like he was an unknown quantity either and wanted to assess how good he is, he’s been in the league for years and Ross has even managed him.

I imagine he will only ever be used as backup for Gogic however.

Or maybe we wanted to offer him a 1 year deal as cover and he waited to see if someone could offer him regular first team football?

[Since452]

Decent cover, played at a good level his whole career and we know he'll have a great attitude

I've not written him off as such. He was decent for St.Mirren a couple of years ago, He probably could 'do a job' but I wish we would come away from signing players that can just 'do a job' that's all. We need to sign boys to come in and fight for a place in our starting 11. You don't get any better signing boys that can 'do a job'. The Mccrorie one excited me as he's a young Scottish player with the potential of making us money, that's the signings we should be making.

We are 2nd in the league in the middle of the biggest financial crisis to ever hit the game. Cool your jets. Hibs have given Ross good backing in the current climate yet a few posters are really upset we have missed out on one or two signings to cash-rich Aberdeen. From a level-headed perspective, Hibs have done really well this window so far. This is a low-risk and low-cost signing.

Unfortunately Spaceman you will receive no plaudits for your level-headed approach on Hibsnet. Like his brother Paul he will be a excellent signing.

I've seen some tripe from you but this pish takes the biscuit, do you just type and hope something coherent comes out?

[Onceinawhile]

Genuinely know next to nothing about him. Except his surname, so will wait and see how it plays out before I go making any mental predictions.

However you were negative saying it was a waste of a wage. No one know the budget and I am sure JR knows shays he’s doing. McCorie would have been a very good signing but it’s not to be. He chose Aberdeen and not us. We move on and look for someone else. SM is not his replacement.

I trust JR to sign who he thinks will bring the right quality and qualities to the team.

Cant say I'm happy with this. More wages that could go towards real quality. Whittaker is easily a better player than McGinn IMO. So is Slivka. Strange to release both and sign him.

Hopefully he does well. Will have full support from me.

😂 If this is your “full support” I dread to think what any less would look like!
