Seems a more likely outcome as they might be selling Maja, They will probably be able to match his current wages and it'll probably suit McNulty too as i imagine he still has family in Scotland.

I thought Thomas looked quite good yesterday, very busy, a bit of a handful, and worked hard to close Sterling down when we were pressing at the end.I genuinely think McNulty is a superior footballer to Thomas. He made his name from a good goal at Wembley. Yesterday he looked no better than Chaplin.

Bomb Squad less than 6 months after paying over a million.
It's no wonder football is such a mess.
Could Meyler do a job for us in midfield?
Bet his wage would be way too much for us.
Even if they allowed him to come on loan we would have to pay a percentage of his wages far in excess of what any of our other players are on
Harsh I think - he really doesn't strike me as that sort of character.I get the feeling McNulty got what he wanted with a big earning move and a contract to ensure his future and has now sat on his arse hence his poor performances and lack of fitness
All hearsay, plus when he was here he was chunky. I doubt very much he has ballooned, and lack of fitness most likely is due to lack of playing time.Unless he was injured I cant see any other reason for his total lack of fitness and Reading fans calling him fatty McNulty
Doesn't look likes he's starving to me"can't eat with the rest of the squad" that is going to hurt McNulty
Looking on their forum he's had a really bad injury and should have retired in the summer.What a pointless signing that was for Reading. McShane might be useful experience for our young back line although no doubt wages would be too high.
Reading look like a team clearing the decks ready for league one.
They can transfer list Mcnulty and stop him eating but he has the contract and if he has any sense will be sitting it out waiting for a pay off or a club to match the wages pointless moving full time for less
Although I wish I agreed, he's basically had 6 months of being a sub, having earned a load more cash, and can probably just go back to League 1 and continue as per usual. Not really the end of the world for him. I'd certainly take it!What a wasted move for him (in footballing terms - not thinking about the money). Let's hope other players tempted by big money moves learn from his experience.
Exactly - it made sense in monetary terms but will even L1 be interested in an expensive player who may take months to get match fit.Although I wish I agreed, he's basically had 6 months of being a sub, having earned a load more cash, and can probably just go back to League 1 and continue as per usual. Not really the end of the world for him. I'd certainly take it!
Nice signing on bonus, high wages, probably subsidised by Reading for the next few years too, and a loyalty bonus for not requesting a move.
If anything I'd say this shows you should push for the move when you get the chance, his career won't be harmed if he gets a transfer to a league 1 club now.

I'm not suggesting we go out and get him, I'm just saying objectively it was probably a good move for him to make.We don't want a player with an attitude like that. We want players who are motivated to prove themselves and get first team games at all costs, not who want to take a payday and sit on the bench. If we wanted a player like that we could ring up Freddie Eastwood, cheaper too.
lmao talk about supporting players in match thread but happy to sell an ex player down the river with conspiracy theories loooooolAbsolutely no chance he will come back. Reading will want a transfer fee and recoup at least half of what they paid. Even if they allowed him to come on loan we would have to pay a percentage of his wages far in excess of what anyy of our other players are on and then you have the issue of him not being match fit and well over weight acording to their fans.

what? mcnultys all round game is superior to chaplinsHe'd be shit playing alongside Chaplin, Hiwula or JCH anyway.. It was Max that made him look such a good player. Chaplin would have scored twice as many if Max was still fit
