    Neither do I but no one else seems to suggest much except “pie in the sky, out of our budget, players.

    Reading have made Marc McNulty available. Tranmere interested in a 1 year loan deal.

    Would be a very good signing for this level. I would like to think we were interested

    I think Micky Mellon also took him on loan last season at Dundee so I would say he’s tranmere bound

    Used to play for us/you’ve heard of him. That’s enough. It’s a low barrier to be considered a good player by many City fans. Half the Facebook page would be ecstatic at Mottley Henry returning on the basis he has played for us before and can presumably do a job at this level, whatever that means.

    He was yet another striker we never got the best of . Where we sit in block E of the main stand we could see McNulty in the few games he played, and also Hiwula, pulling their hair out. Both of them would make run after run behind defenders while Law, Cullen and Meredith played pretty little triangles and keepball. Their frustration was obvious.

    Posted on him about a month back. He was considering a move to Dundee United but they pulled out.

    Not far short of one in three isnt too shabby over a 300 game career.

    The only way DMH will ever return is if gets a job as a steward.

    Just down the road from me!? You've crushed my imaginings, mate. I thought our support was so worldwide we did in fact have a long time fan in Botswana. Crushed, I tell you.

    Cook is a scorer. A good old fashioned goal-hanger. If he can deliver us 20 goals, or near to, next season, I for one won't be worrying about his contribution anywhere else on the pitch. That's up to the other ten.

    I lived in Bots for 11 years. Found the old C&B site while still out there.

    Sounds like Motherwell have beaten everyone to him and offered him a 3 year deal. Doubt we could offer him all that time, 3 year deals in leagues 1/2 usually aren't there, that's why so many players go to non league or Scotland for security.

    Put most eloquently and true.
    Not too worried about not getting McNulty - he's sometimes hot, though often not. But you do bring up a very interesting point here. National League sides and Scottish clubs don't have salary caps and are in a much better position, if they have the dosh, to offer longer contracts and wages. Mullin going to Wrexham the other day was a really interesting case in point. Everyone was talking about him going to Lg 1 or even Championship. He must be on a hell of a good deal over there in Wales.

    Either he went for the money or he lacks ambition , he also might not back himself in a higher division ,who knows.

    It's an interesting one Mickey. Ryan Reynolds, Parkie et al clearly have massive ambition to get Wrexham back into Lg 2 and I would be amazed if they don't walk it, the money and resources they now have available. Put me on a good wage and that would certainly turn my head.
