Hot off the press!
He's not even been on the bench since the end of December.

How solid is your source?
... Because if it's off that 'transfer rumours' site, old news pal.

Shame. He showed sparks, but just couldn't cut it. He's still young though.
(I know it's just a loan, but I don't expect him to be coming back)

Can he do a McG in L2? Hope so, so we can either start him or sell him for a reasonable price.

Certainly a shout. He's done the business there before.

He's got potential and this his is last chance to show it. If he can score some goals and show what he can do Robins will give him another chance, so good luck to him

Think there could be some truth in that one, he comes from that area aswell. If we can off load him and O'Donovan we could bring in a couple to help the push to the play offs.

He was recently burgled, can imagine he would want to get out of Keresley asap and move to a more pleasant side of town.

I still feel he has enough talent for this division at least, even Championship if he could get his confidence back.
A good loan deal for the rest of this month and February could do him lots of good ,especially if he scores a few goals. His debut against Ipswich last season showed he got into good scoring positions and with a bit more luck could have got a couple of goals.
He needs games under his belt desperately, so i won't write him off yet ,and can see him being a good player for us ,especially if we have another season in this division, and with some coaching from Robins,as he was a good striker, he could play at Championship level imo

Jason Scotland scored 1 in 7 for Ipswich, why would we want him!?
McG is at Ipswich, how could we loan him!? :facepalm:

I don't think it is necessarily good enough, it is purely down to fitness and personal issues, as his positional play is very good at times, however a lack of pre season has cost Cody and a lot of rumours circle around that he is not quite settled.
Prob's the best move for all at this current time.

No player at nearly 27 can have any excuses. He has not been a starter at Norwich or here. Why people are so patient and make excuses for him and yet are so hard on other players is beyond me.
Above League Two he has played a grand total of 59 games and scored 10 goals.

Short term loan to get him some games, fitness and hopefully goals. Good move, hopefully it can get him going and i'm convinced he could score goals at this level.

I think Robin's wants him gone completely.
I was never impressed with him and thought he was a bad signing to start off with!

He'll be going out to be put in the shop window. He's drop down a division get some games, hopefully goals then will be sold. The club will want to get some of their investment back and no ones going to pay for him sat in the stands.
He won't be here at the start of next season that's the sure.

Adrian Durham kept banging on about the fact that Peterborough wanted him and also had a bid accepted for him but we completely blew their wage offer out of the water.
look at it another way with a 1 goal in 6 strike rate and if we only had 1 or 2 chances per game would you want him as your main striker & even on the bench we could end up were we started at the start of the season, robins is right of load him sooner rather than later
