Niall McGinn

[Flexy]

Does anyone know what Niall McGinn from Dungannon is like. What are his strengths and weaknesses.

[Steve Bruce]

I have to say, I have never heard of him until recently.

I can't say he has ever shone against Linfield.

[Graemerz]

Was he once on the books at Windsor or was that Adam McMinn?

I saw Niall play against Linfield at Dungannon in a 4 nil win in October and he tore Linfield apart that day. I take it you were not at that game? He had both full backs on toast that afternoon.

TBH I, myself could tear apart Steven Douglas.

I was at that game. The one that shone for me that day was the long blond haired guy from Canada(cant think of his name)

Walton he is called. It was McGinn that shone for me that day. I never heard of him before then but followed his progress since then. He scored 1st, hit post in the 2nd half and then set Campbell up for 3rd. McShane couldn't handle his pace and neither could Douglas when he switched.

Shows you how people see games differently. I might have noticed him at the time, but not knowing his name.

That day, Linfield where shockingly bad. At the moment both of them full-backs have been dropped and haven't been near the team since Boxing Day.

McGinn won the October player of the month in the Irish league on the back of that performance.

On a more serious note can DJ please give mcShane and Douglas a wee run out on the 10th March..

Stevey will you be coming down to the Brandywell this year for the setanta match

Yep. I have been down to the Brandywell last two seasons. It was me and my mate who started the DCFC ahahaha

[Steve Bruce]

Interesting.

Not really, the only time I ever know who the player of hte month is when a Linfield player gets it as it is posted on the Linfield forum.

This month Thompson has got it, I couldn't tell you who got manager of the month though, although would hazard a guess and say Patterson.

Larne's Graham McConnell got manager of the month.

Well their ya go.

I wonder will McGinn start to get more playing time this season with Celtic? Wasn't Tony Mowbray interested in him when he managed West Brom? Or was that Paddy McCourt?

That was McCourt. But both played against Spurs in Wembley, McCourt started and played well. He was then subbed for McGinn later in the game so there is every chance both will get more exposure this season.

Revealing that neither McGinn nor McCourt even made the bench last night?

[Umberside]

In fairness McCourt was playing on Sunday and it was unlikely he'd play last night.

[Dodge]

Bit harsh. Its a squad game and even with 7 subs, realistically only places for 3 wingers in the matchday squad. new manager unlikely to put them straight in at that level

We'll see how they fare throughout the year
