McMullen looks your best player by a mile but he doesn't seem that well liked on here...and if we had signed Shankland it would've been good business imo...compared to our last few choices as manager I think McPake is less of a gamble than that last clown we had... anyway won't be long to it all starts and I'm looking forward to it
Thats a very good observation and I fully agree - Shankland no gamble but if we cant supply him then we wont get much back
