Only what I gather from Twitter - Marc and his dad Jimmy are always pro Celtic/anti Rangers. Largely banter I know, but not many cross the divide.
Not sure who McNulty is a fan of, Celtic or Rangers but my mate who came to the match with me on Sunday who also happens to be a Rangers fan was discussing their recruitment in the summer with me and judging by some of the players he claims Gerrard is bringing in/rumoured to be looking at, it's highly doubtful McNuty would be top of their list.
And Celtic definitely don't need him given the quality they possess up front.

Plenty of other SPL teams who would be interested though. Depends if he wants to be a big fish in a small pond or not.
We should sign clarke Harris. He has some obvious attributes of strength and power that the other forwards do not have. With a full summer behind him he’d be competitive in league 1
I think there’s every chance someone may sign McDonald - he’s record (brief as it was) in league 1 is pretty ghastly. I would say league 2 is his level.
Haynes whatever anyone thinks of him needs to move. Jordan clarke is a far better player than Haynes but he moved on at the right time and made a decent career.
Biamou is never a league 1 footballer. I suppose he’s cheap but if you are serious about a challenge he’s never going to be good enough.
Obviously Beavon if we can move on and Vincenti - i would guess his injury has done for him as he looks like a slow motion replay
If anyone paid big money for Bayliss and the club could utilise it then I’d sell.
We’ve got Jones and Andreu back and kelly should be able to step up. With a healthy amount of cash we could do buy some decent players with the cash.

Can’t believe you still don’t believe in Biamou. Complements McNulty marvellously. Oh well
If he’s in the team at league one level we are in trouble
Well you seem to be highly critical of potential replacements - including one whose scored a lot more this season - so how many will he score next season in league 1?
My thought too, mainly until the end of 2019 season.So, you would keep MacDonald as good cover
Before his goal against us, they had dried up, and he'd even been dropped for a while. The absence of goals from him was partly why Notts County dropped out of the automatics. Looks lightweight to me
We need someone better than both Biamou (much as I love him) and JCH. I'd keep Max and look for better than either
I wouldn't put it past him playing another 50 games next season he's a machine

Signed on a 'free' according to Sky. Wonder what we paid for him in January considering we don't invest...
Devon was given chances but proved to be too slow, Dion showed more last season than he did this year, I do like Dion but his height is a factor against him although he is tenacious in the tackle but we need better and good luck to them both
I think that’s good. Can see him and McNulty starting but would not be surprised to see Biamou around the first team continuing his improvement
For me priority is another younger Michael Doyle, we have this Westbrook from Chelsea, Liam Kelly obviously and at the moment Bayliss And there’s Tony Andrue bit of an unknown quantity there but Doyle is different gravy, a leader, a driver, in the faces of opponents, referees and if necessary his own teammates and a bloody good player a vital cog. I really hope we can get another year out of him.
but you said same in league 2 and he helped us get promoted, scoring pivitol goals in the semi to boot
as for jch i agree i think he can do well in league one, he reminds me of c ronaldo the way his body shape is, needs to use that athleticism to his advantage more.
The pre season will be key again. If MR can recruit early again and mould the team, then players that some of us discount as not being of the right level will surprise us again. We have sen this season the improvement in numerous players by good coaching

I don't think there's any real surprises on the released list apart from who is Bilal Sayoud? Wish the Kelly-Evans brothers the best - they always put a shift in but it's probably best on both sides they move on. Thank god Kyle Reid has gone - you're next Beavon!!!
How does everyone think Biamou will do in League 1? Personally I think he's been our most improved player this season and has proved to be the perfect foil for McNulty - so I think he can make the step up to League One, it's hardly like the football is a lot better.
Upfront I think we could do with McNulty, Biamou, JCH and a new forward with pace. Pontecelli (who I highly rate) needs consistent game time to develop, so I would consider loaning him out to a League 2 team.
