RT @HullCityLive: Two nil. Mcdonald. Cracking finish. All from McLean tackling Fryatt.

Worth every. Bloody. Penny. Even when he wasn't fully fit, he had chances at Ipswich and was unlucky not to score.

There's more goals to come from this guy, I'm sure.

sw88 · Mar 31, 2012

What a guy! Looked like he moved to a club where he wasn't fancied, but he never grumbled and demanded a place in the team, buy boy has he taken his chance today! I do hope there's lots more to come

Paxman II · Mar 31, 2012

A natural finisher. They win you games.

McClean should have been off the pitch.....good job he wasn't then!

Otis · Mar 31, 2012

I said back last October time that we needed his goals if we had any chance to survive.

Could be a big 6 games for the lad.

I would play him next week. Peterborough's defence is not the strongest in this league by a long chalk.

covcity4life · Mar 31, 2012

im happy in the knowledge ive never written off cody

castlevaleskyblue · Mar 31, 2012

Will be a big player for us. On another thread saying he won't score again this season....I guarantee he will. His movement off the ball is better than nimelys deserves to start now

Sky Blue Sheepy · Mar 31, 2012

He was a young striker and is starting to be a clinical finisher. Always defended the lad and hope to see him push on with us next season, whatever league we're in.

Astute · Mar 31, 2012

I say swap him for ALF :facepalm:

Pigeon · Mar 31, 2012

We need a song for Mr MacDonald

torchomatic · Mar 31, 2012

Pleased he's proving the doubters wrong. He's the kind of player who with games under his belt will do well for us.

Cody McDonald scores a goal, EIEIO

win9nut · Apr 1, 2012

I must say, that was a great finish!

Delboycov · Apr 1, 2012

He was clearly unfit for this division when he came and that's why he struggled so much. He's fit enough now and has adapted to the faster pace and higher quality of the Championship and he's undoubtedly a natural finisher. That's exactly what we've needed and I think he could be an important factor in us staying up....glad Shitsu didn't flog him as planned.

covcity4life · Apr 1, 2012

brilliant finish

Same, I was genuinely excited by his signing, and hope to be reimbursed for this excitement.

covcity4life · Apr 1, 2012

well we have 3 great finishes so far!

murphy has really stepped up of late and if cody scan score like i think he can(PERSONAL OPINION ALERT)maybe thats king replaced too?

norwood on a season long loan and gunnars more than replaced

if we dont keep selling i think this squad is capable of mid table ,we need a backup LB though

superskyblue · Apr 1, 2012

Let's not get ahead of our station, we are a relegation standard team, we will get lucky/just deserve to stay up and that is fine with me.

What needs to happen is that if we stay up; there is serious investment in the team, otherwise we will face the same battles as this year.

If we go down, I can see us going the same way as Preston unless investment is made in the squad.

covcity4life · Apr 1, 2012

see im not so sure

we have been compettive in 95% of matches and lost by odd goal

next season promising kids will have experience under their belt whilst likes of cody will have pre seasons

norwood/nimely need to come abck or be repalced but this squad we have today starting with a clean slate would not be in the same trouble it is right now imo,it wasa terrible terrible first 3-4 months that did this to us where alot of people & factors were to blame

torchomatic · Apr 1, 2012

Great finish.

Astute · Apr 1, 2012

Better than his finish for Cardiff

sw88 · Apr 1, 2012

After only two goals, it's way too early for a comparison to King, although I respect your opinion!

Am yet to see the finish but it sounds quality.

I was pleased to see him line up against Platt rather than Nimely, as haven't all his other appearances been with Nimely? IMO Nimely needed a rest as its very rare that he has been taken off since he's been here, and although his work rate is there, the goals don't seem to want to come. Maybe we'll see Platt and Cody C Posh? That's what I'd like to see anyway.

DazzleTommyDazzle · Apr 1, 2012

From the relatively little that we've seen of both players, Nimley seems to be the better all round player but Cody seems to be the better goalscorer.

Cody's diving header against Palace, when he took a boot in the head, reminded me of the bravery that Ian Wallace used to show when there was any glimmer of a chance. Now if he could become half the player that Wally was................

Mary_Mungo_Midge · Apr 1, 2012

As well as looking more liable to score since he's been back and somewhere near match fit; he's looked dangerous when not scoring too. Thinking back to Watford away, he only came on for a short while, and had two excellent chances - one of which was cleared off the line.

Looks a very, very dangerous player

AFCCOVENTRY · Apr 1, 2012

Fantastic finish from Cody. We can see what he is capable of.

I think a solid pre-season and a few more goals in this campaign and we could have a tidy striker on the books ready for 12/13

SkyBlue_Bear83 · Apr 1, 2012

He is a difficult player to place, he gets into good positions and seems a real poacher but apart from that I don't think he brings much else to our play.

Sort of if he doesn't score he is just there to make the numbers up on the pitch. For now I think he is better off being used as he is coming on as a sub and trying to nick a goal late on.

My post from another thread, I don't think his overall game is good enough yet to command a first team place.

after 8 hours sleep i just wanna clarify i dont think hes better or as good king right now! or maybe never

just tihnk hes a "different" type of replacement if you know what i mean,can still do a job for us

p.s its 3 goals(burnley,palace and hull )

Mr pot · Apr 1, 2012

When I saw that Gills video I thought he'd be banging them in, I have high hopes for the guy. He wasn't and still isn't full match fit - just wait

Real · Apr 2, 2012

I've always thought McDonald looked like he was short of match fitness when he arrived.
