I've read one mackem fan's opinion who reckons their scouting system consists of Scotland and Coventry City. Made me smile.

He had one good season in League 2 and didn't make the cut at Reading.
I'll not lose any sleep over it.

Lets hope reading were right and he was a one season wonder. Gutted hes playing for those tossers but then he has always followed the money

To be fair he's scored goals everywhere he's gone (aside from Reading where he's barely had a chance). Can see him doing well at Sunderland as their team is really bulking up. I don't think he ever had intentions of coming here again but gutted to see we lost out on a chance.

What standard is the SPL now? Watched it a few years ago and it was worse then league 2.

Really!?
173 appearances (83 as sub ) 89 goals
Goals per Game 0.34 roughly 1 in 3 where ever he’s been.
Bloody good ratio for a goal scorer whatever league you in!!

I don't quite get your point.
He's scored 0.34 goals per game in leagues lower than League One and in Scotland.
Quantity doesn't necessarily mean quality if you're taking into account the levels he scored the goals at.

If it makes you Sunderland haters feel better - at least when McNulty inevitably scores against us... were guarenteed at least 2 goals once the high Balls head towards Burge

My point being that he hasn’t just had ‘one good season in league two’.
He’s a proven goal scorer at every club he’s played for.

Only scored 1 in 16 at Bradford whilst in L1

It's really not. I don't like Scottish football but to say it's worse than league 2 is ridiculous. It's probably low end Championship level (aside from the top 2 who are high end Championship).

No it’s not.
Whatever he did at Bradford or Reading-Your point was that he had only one good season in league 2.
That’s just not true.

Can you name another good season he's had apart from the one in League Two?

I would say it was on par with League 1

tbh McNulty couldn't hit a barn door for a long period before suddenly finding a golden streak (in league 2) where he hit the back of the net consistently for the rest of the season drawing attention from Reading. Reading never really gave him much opportunity or put their trust in him enough as they fought against relegation. When he had his chances he failed misserable on the whole and ended up back in Scotland where again he did not settle or set any records.
So from my perspective I'd say he was a one season wonder where the dynamic at the time just clicked rather fortunately under Robins guidance.
He may find some form again but I really don't fear him on the opposition side at all. Sunderland may provide more opportunity for him but I still don't think he is an prolific scorer by any stretch.

They should have walked the league last season with the squad they had, just like Wolves did when they were still receiving parachute payments, so abject failure. They still have the best squad in the league, so will be interesting to see how they do.

Players like rose and bigi going to the SPL suggests the level
Celtic probably championship mid table standard

Top goalscorer for Sheffield Utd but not even in the top ten goalscorers in the league.
You're grasping!
