It's a NO from me, not what we want.
My opinion not based on not liking him, his best days are long behind him.
He will just get slower & slower.
I saw Motherwell at The Dump last season and I thought he was running thro treacle at times.
Would make Billy McKay look like a decent signing.
Funny you mention that as I'm pretty sure I saw him (B McK) in town yesterday. I'm not 100% sure but it really looked like him.
Hit double figures for a rotten Motherwell side playing in a league above ours last season. He would score 15-20 in the Championship easily imo. He's a very intelligent footballer who has a knack of being in the right place at the right time. Couple that with being one of the best finishers in the league and I don't see what there is not to want about him, especially if he's affordable.
McDonald will score goals in this league but IMO he is to similar a player to Keatings and I would choose Keatings over him. You could see in the game yesterday we lacked someone to aim for in the box and I don't think McDonald is the best answer to that problem. Would prefer we went for the boy from Dundalk and Storey. Those 2 would give us some better options IMO.
Why are so many people wanting this boy from Dundalk? I doubt anyone has a clue how good he is. He's only 5 ft 11 too. Not exactly the big target man.
Mcdonald would be a decent signing if true. a clever player who annoys the hell out of the opposition something we've not had in a good few years.
hes lost the pace he once had but he could still do a job for us in the championship.
is he the sort of striker we need ? probably not we need a target man like other guys have mentioned.
if we signed mcdonald and another striker who was a tall physical player then id take it but if we had 1 more signing to make it wouldnt be him tbh
