David McGoldrick

Was saving his energy to prolong his career
He's done a good job of it to be fair, he's got 73 goals since he turned 35 - quite amazing considering he never scored many before that.

Having that spell in the Premier League with Sheffield United really improved him as a player & seemed to make him realise he can be quite good.

I saw David McGoldrick play for Port Vale on loan when Forest beat them in League One in 2007-he stood out
like a diamond in a poor Vale side and I was pleased when we signed him in 2009.

It never worked out for him at the City Ground but he’s often impressed elsewhere.

I remember at least one transfer window in the League One days where loads of us stayed up right until the end on here in the hope that we'd sign McGoldrick (amongst others). Didn't quite work out when we finally did grab him, but he's had a terrific career.

On a side note, something has been lost from transfer deadline day now berks like Romano post everything. I miss staying up until the wee hours hoping against sanity that we'll sign Will Hoskins. Granted, it always ended in disappointment when we'd inevitably sign nobody - but there was excitement at least.

I’m not sure everyone misses the excitement of the Marthur transfer windows.🤣

Absolutely. It used to be when Romano tweeted it was pretty much a done deal. Now he will post what is fed to him.

Will Hoskins, Billy Sharp, Matty Fryatt all players I used to hope we would sign on deadline days. The magic of it has gone abit. I wish Sharp had been given a proper run for us.

He was (still is for that matter) a good player Norman, with a more-than-decent first touch and intelligent movement. Being very one-paced was possibly a reason why he failed to step-up to PL-level. A combination of various injuries and a style-of-play that didn't really suit him probably impacted him here as much as anything else.

Honestly, fair play to him.. Football careers don't last long and why not drag it out as long as you can? He could do well for Mansfield
