    I suspect Macca would come back if he could but if Millwall decide to sell him they'd try to get an auction going with L1 clubs etc
    There's no chance of Millwall ever getting back what they paid for Macca. They will be lucky to get 250k for him in view of the season he has just had. Notts will have money in the bank from the potential sale of Jatta, and the 400k they received for Crowley to fund a return to Notts.
    I dont think there will too many league one clubs prepared to gamble with that sort of money... The goal scoring chances that Notts create would be the ideal place for Macca to resurrect his career..

    Can't see him taking a big wage cut and I can't see us paying him what he's on at Millwall.

    I can see him taking a big pay cut when his contract expires.
    You are only as good as you're last game they say - and his was a couple of months ago [still injured or left entirely out of the squad.]

    I'm not sure how long he signed up for but can't imagine he's too happy with the way it's working out.

    We could get him on a season long loan and partially pay his wages. We have the funds to do that..

    I agree. It is a no-brainer really. His time at Milwall is as good as over. They need to get him in the 'shop window'. The wages thing will be treated as a loss-leader - after all, it's better to get something and get Langstaff somewhere where he might perform again, before offloading him. It would be foolish to send him to a League 1 Club or higher though.

    However, he's injured currently isn't he?

    Either loan him out or selling him, Millwall would still be on the hook for his wages until his original contract with them is due to end.

    Not sure if that would make it better or worse to sell him now or loan him in the hope he gets some form back?

    If he's injured it must be quite bad as he's not been in their squad for many weeks and he's never mentioned as being injured by Neil who clearly doesn't rate him. I have a mate who's a big Millwall fan he's well disappointed with how he's pretty much failed at Millwall.

    I'd imagine that he wouldn't need to take a pay cut if we were to buy him.
    Any figure would take into account milwall paying off his shortfall in wages.
