    Have you seen the state of McNulty who’s come on for Tranmere. I honestly thought he must’ve been the kit man when he was on the touch line. He’s about 3 stone overweight for a footballer

    Yet has won promotion after promotion and won every header when he was on the pitch. A serial winner. If only we had a few like him in our shower last season.

    Typical. He’s big so must be crap.

    Ah yes, serial winner. Roy Keane, Steve Gerrard, Vincent Kompany, Steve McNulty.

    Do you only have to play in the top 4 clubs to be classed a winner?

    Strange attitude

    You’ve thought about this way too much. I’ve never heard of him and have no idea what promotions he’s won. But looking at him on the side of the pitch, he looked a joke. Like someone’s dad who’d won a competition to get 10 mins game time.

    Thought about it way too much? What are you talking about?

    5 promotions with 4 different clubs and captained 3 of those sides. But yeah he’s crap because he looks a bit big.

    i see you're up to your old games again. Nowhere has he stated that he's crap. Read what's written, rather than what you want to read.

    He said he looked a joke. That’s enough isn’t it? And comparing him to someone’s dad would suggest he thought he was crap. Comparing him to an amateur

    Thanks for your concern though.

    I didn’t say he was crap. I said he looked ridiculous. Which he does. To be that fat as a professional athlete is shameful and unprofessional

    That's just the way you're interpreting it. If he's made it clear that what you're insinuating from his post is not what he's getting at, then you should accept it and move on rather than persisting to put words into his mouth making incorrect assertions

    You never learn do you?

    Hang on, he DID say he looked like someone’s father that had won a competition to play. He also challenged the comment that @How@How made that he is a serial winner, having won 5 promotions with 4 clubs. This was dismissed as he wasn’t a household name and not playing for a top Premier League side.

    He may not have used the word ‘crap’, but we can all see what he was insinuating. Just the same way Akinfenwa always gets similar stick, yet made a bigger impact in L1 this season than any of our forwards.

    Had @Faithful Bantam@Faithful Bantam not been making his assertions, wouldn’t he have simply replied, “he may be successful and have some ability, but he needs to shed the pounds”? But he didn’t. He just said he looked a joke and that he thought he was a kit man.

    If he doesn’t want his posts interpreting, he needs to make his arguments clearer and acknowledge the points made back to him instead of just dismissing them

    commenting on someone's appearance isn't the same as saying that they are, ability wise, crap. I can see why you may interpret it in such a way, but he then explained his post and provided the clarity you were after.

    Tbf, even in the context of never having heard of Steve McNulty and him looking like your average middle aged bloke down the pub on a Friday night, I'd have had him at centre half over NKP and O'Connor.

    Have I inadvertently touched the nerve of those sensitive to middle age fat bastardness...?

    I cant be arsed reading through all the stuff above but it seems like some are getting worked up over a throw away comment. I've no intention of debating the ability of Steve McNulty - if that's what floats your boat on a bank holiday weekend then knock yourself out.

    What I will say is that whatever success hes had, just think what he might have achieved if he'd taken the physical side of his game seriously and lived and trained like a professional athlete instead of being a fat bastard.

    Anyway, we signed anyone else yet...?

    He's a free agent I think Bowyer should collect him from the Wirral. That's what we need and a measure of where we are at in terms of players with no disrespect to him.

    We are back to this again. You not understanding it.

    He said he was a dad who won a competition and he didn’t look like a footballer. What part of that is not insinuating he is crap? Ask @BoingBoing@BoingBoing he has it right

    He doesn’t look like a footballer, thats the point. Otherwise we’d have players strutting round with beer bellies hanging out of their shorts.
