Marc McNulty Signs for CCFC (6 Viewers)

[Nick]

Scottish striker set to join the Sky Blues...

Coventry City can confirm that Marc McNulty has agreed a contract with the football club and will join the Sky Blues following the expiry of his contract with Sheffield United.

Striker McNulty, who is 24 and from Edinburgh, has agreed a two year deal with the Sky Blues.

Marc started his career with Scottish side Livingston where he scored 41 goals in 91 league appearances

The form of the 5 foot 10 striker led to a move to England with Sheffield United in May 2014. His time at the Blades has included loan spells at Portsmouth in 2015-16, where he scored 10 goals in 27 League Two games, and Bradford City last season.

Coventry City Manager Mark Robins said: “We are delighted to sign Marc, after beating a number of clubs to secure his signature.

“Marc is a natural goalscorer who is comfortable using either foot and he will be a real threat in front of goal for us.

“Goalscoring was clearly an area requiring improvement from last season, and I’m delighted to have been given the support to improve this area with a player of Marc’s undoubted quality.

“I will continue to work hard with Tommy Widdrington and the support of the Club’s board to identify and recruit the calibre of players which we need push for promotion next season.”

SIGNING: Marc McNulty agrees to join the Sky Blues!

Good to see more business being done early!

apparently Bristol Rovers, Mansfield and Pompey were all after him too!





Doesn't look scared to shoot! (for now)

I said this we'd by interested in him on a thread last week. He has connections to Coventry somehow, I'm sure someone in my family knows him.

 

[ajsccfc]

Was this rumoured? First I've heard of it or him. 41 in 91 in Scotland sounds alright though

[Jackoskyblue]

Very pleased with that, good bit of business considering others were interested

Nice to see it come from the club out of nowhere for a change too! Nice surprise

Only 24 perfect age for us not a kid anymore and but just coming into his prime

 

[skybluebeduff]

Good signing, looking forward to more to come, unsure about Deegan though if true.

 

[covcity4life]

youtube wise he looks like the best finisher in history

 

[covmark]

Nice to see we're getting business done early. It'll be good to start pre season with the majority of the squad in place.

The 2 players already signed and the Lincoln lad show me what kind of team robins wants , I have total faith in his eye for a player and think we will have a better side than some people think

 

[skybluebeduff]

A world of difference compared to Mowbrays previous summers recruitment.

 

[Nick]

Both experienced players for the league rather than Kwame Thomas.

In terms of strikers now we have:

McNulty
Beavon (if he stays)
K Thomas
G Thomas (sort of striker)

well we are in a different league now so approach will be different and targets maybe more attainable.

but i agree robins getting his man which is a good thing.

mowbray reached for stars and didnt get his targets. lef tus with a mid table team that venus and slade managed to get relegated

whos this Lincoln lad btw?

think we need 1 more. maybe a big guy to win knock ons when we need to go direct/route one

 

[ccfcway]

could well be the next josh morris

or Roy O'Donovan

 

[fernandopartridge]

That one snuck in, we're obviously building in a winning mentality, that's 2 league winners signed.

Waterfall. We made an approach but he decided to stay there.

He wasn't at Pompey last season

 

[Nick]

 

[fernandopartridge]

Pleased to hear Robins talking about promotion next year too.

 

[fernandopartridge]

He wasn't at Pompey last season

He was at Sheffield United smartarse

 

[Liquid Gold]

Good signing. Decent scoring record at this level and played at a higher level last season.

Amazing to be signing so many players before May is done. Robins just knows what to do at this football club.

 

[oucho]

Good work; glad to have someone join with ab it of age and experience but who is still not yet at their peak - hopefully we see his best years with us!

 

[ccfchoi87]

Pompey fans seem disappointed he chose us over them and blades fans think he'll score goals at this level

 

[Liquid Gold]

Nice to hear Robins saying good things about Wridrington too.

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Only be happy if he's as good as Shaun Miller

 

[sw88]

Good age. Decent record, albeit different divisions. I'm happy (and can forget all about #MD8 now )

 

[Nick]

He was at Sheffield United smartarse

Yeah but, erm, yeah.

 

[robbiekeane]

Looks like a great bit of business

 

[robbiekeane]

The telegraph and observer will both be exclusively crying their eyes out about this

 

[fernandopartridge]

Yeah but, erm, yeah.

Sky Blue Kid is starting to rub off on you

 

[Nick]

2 years as well rather than a 1 year and beating other teams to his signature, sounds promising if we get other players.

Has it been said about Doyles? Is that 1 year?

 

[Nick]

Sky Blue Kid is starting to rub off on you

Nah, I was wrong. I said it!
