Yes. Let's write him off after 5 games. That's a great idea

I cant see him going, but if he does where does that leave Thorn??

In an untenable situation. Where he's resided for some time

He's not shit, but he is unbelievably unfit and lacking match practice, a loan would do him good in league 1
HUMMMM..... Anyone thats is unbelievably unfit and lacking match practice is..............shit ?

If he goes then thorn should follow! That would just prove how inept and clueless he is.

I'm not going to judge the lad at this level until he's got himself fully fit and sharp again. We all saw how important a pre season is with Marlon King. It took him until the Spring to get back to his best!
McDonald gets himself into the right positions, he's just a bit rusty and I suspect low on confidence now too.

ok correct me if im wrong but at the very begining of the summer transfer window whenwe were linked with macdonald thorn dismissed it and said not my type of player,but then a few months later he is his number one target. was it SISU ??

Thorn, a former Chief Scout at the Club, would have seen plenty of players who could play in that position. He waited to find out how much money he would have and spent it as best he thought at the time. McDonald hasn't set the world alight, but Thorn's ability to find players should be not be under scrutiny the same way as his tactical decisions are, even if discounting the fact SISU determine our transfers by netting as much of a profit as they can by downgrading the playing staff.

I'd heard a whisper that we were "making his availablity known".
I wasn't sure whether to believe it, but now I'm thinking perhaps it was right.
If so, something has gone badly wrong somewhere.

this would be crazy, but would be no shock.
He isnt fit, despite being here for weeks, doesnt look like scoring, and doesnt look that impressive
Having said all of that, i was more than hoping he would get a pre season under his belt and come out fighting in league one next season
the thought of Platt and ROD in league one next season really does depress me !

Frozen out. Trained with the reserves and youth teamers, and didn't play any of their pre-season friendlies.

1 in 2 striker when in the team
it might have been in league 2, but shows he knows where the net is
I really was pinning hopes on him next season
for me, who fully accepts we are down, this (if true) would be more depressing than Juke, as he could make a big impact in League One, and Juke was never gonna stick around

Is that supposed to reassure us?

You're right. Terrible judge of player. What with Westwood, Dann, Fox, Gunnarsson, Juke and the like all being scouted by him and bought for next to nothing... :facepalm:

Well said. People seem to forget that our board have sold (or let leave) a number of our best players, and made virtually no funds available to replace them. McDonald is young still, he needs to be given time. Unfortunately we don't have much to give.
