    but he never played of knock downs,when he played up with big jan he would win the header for the flick on and mcdonald with be over the other side of pitch,he didnt know what he was doing,but he scored a lot of important goals for us ill give him that,and he was treated really * by the australia coach,not taking thim to the world cup when they dont even have a good striker there

    Skippy had his time....it's very rare that a 2nd spell at a club turns out as fruitful.

    We had Keane for a few months, that should be the benchmark. Skippy doesn't meet the mark, we want better than him.

    Would have him back in a flash.

    People that slate him should look at his record, a big game player that did the business against the huns and in Europe.

    Was gutted when he left.

    If we could get him back for what we got for him, I would be pretty happy with that.

    I'm not his biggest fan but next season, we need players who know how to perform, and win SPL matches and he has proven that he can.

    Done the business against the huns on 3-4 occasions, Spartak Moscow, Dynamo Moscow, Milan, Man United as well as scoring consistently against the other SPL sides.

    People often forget his contribution in that famous 7 game winning run that won us the league in 2008, 2 against the huns in that memorable 3-2 win and he pulled us out of a hole at fir park as well.

    51 goals in 88 games. Incredible record.

    I'd have him back in a minute. I was quite disheartened to see him go in the first place

    Lenny highly rates McDonald. It might happen but I think Lenny's got bigger priorities just now. Expect 5 or 6 signings before McD returns.
