That used to make me smile to myself when reading on an excellent general football forum covering each league you would regularly read things along the lines of "not sure what all the fuss is about {insert team name / star player name} they/he was rubbish against us, they/he's overrated"
Anyone who judges a team or player on just one or two games should at best not be taken seriously, or less favourably highlighted and laughed at.
Thankfully I'm sure you will find more balanced views on all forums including Wrexhams
Wouldn't these teams be more interested in Mullin?? Scoring goals although not as many this season as Langstaff but has football league experience so less of a gamble.
It's all bull s***e from the scared Wrexham fans
I'm sure Langstaff would rather have another promotion on his CV
Not sure Mullin would endear himself to some managers. He went from a league 1 side to national League and only has one season of being prolific in the EFL. He chased the money and you can't blame him but he's not going to get the money he's on at a league club as he's not proven above league 2 and he's 27 already
I think you're dead wrong on that laddo. He was released by York in the NL North only just over a year ago so knows the downside and fickle nature of non league football and was happy to leave his home in the North East and a promotion winning team to better himself so his loyalty is to himself and his career. If Peterborough offered him L1 football, a nice fat signing on fee and a pay rise I'm pretty sure he'd leave.
Nothing wrong with that, it's the nature of the business he's in.
You could be right and there is no way of knowing. There is no definitive right or wrong approach/decision IMO. IB got offered L1, and no doubt a better financial package and he rightly jumped.
Personally I'm glad he knows the downside and fickle nature of football. I also have no problem when he leaves. However he has momentum, he's red hot and onto a very good thing currently and getting noticed. Unless he doesn't back himself to continue doing what he's doing a Peterborough or similar could offer all those things in the summer, or the following January. If he carries on as he is then it could easily be a level up from a Posh or a Barnsley with a fatter signing on fee and bigger weekly wage.
No rush Macaulay
