open goal 0 Posted June 27, 2010 What are peoples thoughts on this guy. Wasat United, left for Preston then moved to Burnley. Always seems to score a few goals a season and is always available. Never had any major injuries.

Ivana_rubyatitz 6 Posted June 27, 2010 Please say this is a wind up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Walking Man 13 Posted June 27, 2010 Okay i''ll reat this as though it isn''t a wind up...96 goals in almost 400 appearences isn''t exactly prolific. 18 goals in 94 appearences most recently for Barnsley certainly isn''t prolific. And at 32 what makes you think he''s going to improve for us?Plus he''s an ex binner.No thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danonek 0 Posted June 27, 2010 A big no, i would would have Cody and Oli in ahead of Macken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lincs CR 0 Posted June 27, 2010 Macken has been shipped out on loan everywhere until Barnsley came along, even then his goal scoring record wasn''t great.We can do better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Evil Monkey 52 Posted June 28, 2010 This has to be a joke. Macken may have started at Manchester United, but made his ''name'' at Manchester City, where he was prolific for mostly being crap. Played for the binners, I believe, too. And he''s old. And unbelievably shit.Seriously, is this the best people can do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jacko 0 Posted June 28, 2010 He was a good player at Preston. But that was back in 2002. After he joined Man City he never looked the same player. Can''t really say I want a player who hasnt done well for nearly 8 years! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary_on_the Trent 0 Posted June 28, 2010 Remember him being a very good striker at Preston but his career stalled when he joined Man City in 2002, couldn''t get much game time with Goater, Wanchope and Huckerby banging in the goals and once promoted they spent big bringing in Anelka and Fowler.
