    Pleased about this in hindsight. Would much rather we went for McGeady or someone for the same money as Downing.

    Also this career move shows a significant lack of ambition IMO.

    Nope. I'd like to dodge the McGeady bullet as well.

    McGready barely plays and contributes little when he does.

    Same. Seen nothing at all in the lad. And he's another one who's getting towards the end of his career. I'm hoping the reports linking us are just lazy journalism digging up old links...

    If the rumours about Lens are true, I don't think many tears will be shed over "missing out" on this one.

    Is the right answer. We really need to move on from giving a second (or third, or fourth) chance to other teams failures just because they have this mythical "premier league experience". It is this as much as anything else that has seen us struggling these last few years
