Can't have spent that already surely? Think the cash was offered as loans, not grants. Unsure if any clubs have taken up the offer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mishtergrolsch Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Off-loading McMullan and C Smith makes a lot of sense. I'm miles from being a fan of McMullan and he's been the most frustrating player we've had in a long time. Can't cross, has the physicality of a 3 year old and either runs the ball out of play or holds on to the ball too long and loses possession. Yes, he can occasionally go past a player and is fast but his end product over the piece has been really poor bar 1 purple patch last season. Wish the guy no ill will though, hes just not very good and is a mid to upper Championship player at best. C Smith has done nothing really. Alot of huff and puff and effort but hasn't taken his (very rare tbf) chances. Best for him to go and re build his career somewhere else. Good luck to him. Wondering if we'll look to bring someone in on loan? Id definitely be keeping Clark, hes done really well and has been one of our most important players. Powers...hmm...with Fuchs coming in id be looking for better than Powers, Harkes and Butcher to partner him. Hes not had much of a run of games but I get the feeling hes going to over the next wee while so he might end up earning a new contract. Harkes can go with McMullan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really bothered if he goes, but... In his last 3 seasons, prior to this one where he has hardly played, he has scored 20 goals and provided 22 assists. No other attacking midfielder or wide player we've had in the same time comes even remotely close. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wee orange nyaff Aird must have averaged similar figures to the Groin Stroker star over his short spell with the club, probably much better for assists. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I don't think McMullan is anything special and if the gaffer doesn't rate him, he may as well go. BUT the fact he is the standout among a plethora of other players we have signed shows how difficult it is to get effective players in the creative positions. Personally, if we're 1-0 down going into the last 15 mins of the game, I might take some comfort in being able to throw on a player like McMullan whose pace alone can help create an opportunity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pull My Strings Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 That's the pre contract with the Fun confirmed now. I was fond of McMullan and think he made a decent contribution to the team during his time at United. He'll do well in the Championship again. Obviously he's dead to me now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArabianKnight Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Apparently confirmed by the Dees to have signed a pre contract. Why not just let him go now? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twinkle Posted January 7, 2021 Author Share Posted January 7, 2021 Mcmullan is a decent Championship player, no more, no less. Which is a bonus for him, as thats where he will be playing his football for the next few seasons 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
