Bailey Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 £1m+ is a decent offer for McGoldrick. I would like to see him stay, but being a Nottingham lad, I wouldn't be surprised if he asked to go to Forest. Hopefully he'll remain at Saints, but I'm not convinced.

OldNick Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 whilst many will be pleased i hope the club knock back the offer.Sadly I realise the club have always done deals when offered and so he will be sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doughnutman Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 The Football 365 gossip page said that Derby were preparing a £600k bid for him. Seems unlikely we would accept that (I hope) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ottery st mary Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 He has domestic situation back in Nottingham and I feel he wants back to that part of the world...His career also in a higher league will be important....Anything over a million will be a good deal for Saints.

Wade Garrett Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 Doesn't really send a great message out if we do sell him. It should be left to the new manager, whoever that may be. I couldn't give two f*cks whether he wants to go or not. He is our player under contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ottery st mary Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 Ok We accept 1.2 mil and throw BWP in as well to make the deal happen. Like most the new Manager/ Coach and new owner will make the final decision. Always difficult when we drop to Div 1 and player wants higher league..End of day does he really want to stay regardless of what contract says, I think he will be off....nicholas...Its just my opinion...STAY cool.

DT Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 He's wanted to go for ages. When a player wants to go, all you can do is get as good a price as possible. £1m is that price IMHO. Plus he's not very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickG Posted 1 June, 2009 Author Share Posted 1 June, 2009 if he wants to go and we get decent price then let new team build their team. He is a good player and will get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
londonsaint1604 Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 Might as well sell him as I doubt he wants to stay next season and will be even lazier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocker268 Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 We can't sell him until we get the new board and manager in, also with Saga, Rasiak and probably John going that leaves us with pretty much no strikers in the squad that have proven themselves at all. With 20% sell on clause we would see £800k which I personally dont think is enough as no matter what you think of him, his goal tally was decent last season for a first full season, he is nothing special, but is the best we have left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Channon's Sideburns Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 TBH, we would have been even more in the sh1te had we not had him last season...if that is possible... But to be fair, his body language tells you he's been told he's 'wonderful' since the age of 11 - arrogance is fine as long as you apply that talent fully....he can be a top player, just needs a strong manager to get his act together.... Good luck if you go Dave..just DON'T BECOME ANOTHER JOURNEYMAN.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 I've been under the impression that McGoldrick has wanted to leave for a while now, and even asked Wotte for a move back in January. If David really wants to go, then all Saints can do is get the best price for him. After all, there's no point keeping an unhappy player. Having said that, I'd like to think that the new manager (or Wotte) would be able to make the final decision on whether we sell or not, and so I'd hope that any decision is made once the new owners are in place.

We have as a club been criticised for selling our talent, if the new owners do allow this does it mean we can expect more of the same? This is not a criticism before everybody gets all up about it. As for DMG I wouldnt expect not to wish to go back to the CCC, so do i and so i would rather us keep a goalscorer who will become worth a lot more as time goes on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ottery st mary Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 (edited) I would suggest that footballing decisions will be made now or...Hopefully by MLT very soon... i CAN'T SEE how we can wait until the owner takes over weeks down the line In MLT I trust. Hopefully Mr Fry does not have to make that decision re Mighty Mac. I stiill say if he wants to go he will go and NO strike please David.

sambosa75 Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 Not a bad player but not irreplacable either. I dont think we'd miss him too much. Might give Lallana the opportunity to play behind the front two instead of on the wing which is his natural position and would probably also be enough to get Jan Paul Saiejs and have a bit of change as well.

Ludwig Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 I'd like to keep him tbh, would score 'for fun' in this league, push 'em to £2M at least, esp. if Simon Cox, Lambert etc. are said to command such fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheff Saint Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 I'm really not conviced by him. It could be one that he goes onto be great in time but i don't see it. Either way, if he wants out and the money is right the decision is out of our hands so it's not something to get o upset by. A million pounds buy's you a lot of striker in League One. But like others say, I'll be v surprised is anything happens until the ownership situation is sorted out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Third Division South Days Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 Pinnacle have probably already sorted the manager situation. Whether it be MW or whoever decisions could be made now but until the deal is finalised isnt the decision down to Dave Jones and the other guy. Additionally where would any income generated during the transistional period go? The creditors or the new board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egreog Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 Snap their hands off, let him go if he is not committed , and move on!......can use that money to find 2 half decent strikers who can take a penalty with a degree of competence, can actually kick a ball adequately, and also look as if they want to be on the pitch!!

Bailey Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 This deal was mooted after the Forest game. Sell him and try to get Richie Lambert. This deal was mooted long before that, I can assure you. McGoldrick is pretty keen to return to Nottingham from what I hear. Hopefully the new owners come in and he has a change of heart, but if not, we need to get the best deal and move on. He's a good player, and he'd be fantastic in League One, but he's not irreplaceable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take their collective arms off. We should be paying them. Though I suppose he's scored a few in League One already, maybe he's found his level. Let him scuff 30 (15 penalties) this season and then sell the lazy get. Edited 1 June, 2009 by The9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintDonkey Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 McGoldrick is entirely the sort of player we need to be keeping, I hope he has the grace to stick around and see what happens when ******** completes *** takeover. One million isn't really a lot for a player like him, but I guess it comes down to how much ******* is willing to put into the club as to whether we keep him.

Stirchleysaint Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 Either way, I'm not fussed. Players act like players, they are not fans. If he wants to stay, good. If he wants to go, good.

NickG Posted 1 June, 2009 Author Share Posted 1 June, 2009 its opinions but he ain't toss! He is not as good as Pahars etc but I think many had grudge against him as they blamed him for JP/Wotte/Lowe relying on him as first forward over Saga, Rasiak and john. You cannot argue with the quality of his goals or the return in circumstance above. Some may think he will go onto bigger things, some may think he will do pretty well in CCC level, some may so he is average at this level -fair enough, but to say he is toss is wrong. Guess if he is he will be leaving us, on free transfer for league 2! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mase Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 Like Jones, Fuller and Blackstock you just know we’ll be punching ourselves knowing we undervalued him next season… It seems to be the way with our club. Although if he doesn’t want to be at the club, then that complicates things. Maybe a new manager would sway his mind though? I’d like to see us wait for a few weeks before we make a decision.

saint1977 Posted 1 June, 2009 Share Posted 1 June, 2009 McG is a Nottingham lad and will want to go. However, now we are in the Exclusivity period McG can wait after signing that new deal last summer. I'd also hope we could get at least £1.5m for him. Not my favourite player but improved at the the end of last season and would score goals at L1 level IMO even if he's only just CCC standard at the moment.
