McGrandles signs

- Start date
If only we had a long and illustrious history like them!From the MK Forum:
"On the face of it, it's quite an odd move by us.
I know I've only spoken to Martin once. Albeit for two hours. He certainly came across as an extremely principled man. He walked away from Walsall because he felt it wasn't the right fit for him. I'd be amazed if this has been done above his head. I doubt that we've bent over for a no mark, glorified non-league team like Lincoln".
Bitter, much
We've had a football league team longer than they've had a town.
Off topic, but they made 2 cracking albums, both of which I have.

There's something very reassuring about a manager getting his shopping done early rather than the last minute "best of whats left" picks. Its almost like he knows what hes doing

I hope the midfield lives up to the promise these signings indicates. They are young but experienced and more importantly they seem to fit the mould of Championship style midfielders (If there is such a thing) if they are developed properly, plus they have age and time on their side. I wonder if he is a young O’Connor type but a bit more attacking? The squad is coming together nicely.

When was the concrete jungle formed? Late 60s early 70s? They stole a whole bloody team in the early 00s! Milton Keynes a modern soulless shithole.
Non league club indeed! We were playing the club they stole their league place from when they were putting the concrete cows on one of their many roundabouts!

And Huddersfield.
That said, I did like DC's "best of what's left" - Raggett, Arnold, Walker...!There's something very reassuring about a manager getting his shopping done early rather than the last minute "best of whats left" picks. Its almost like he knows what hes doing
That's the striking thing so far. Young, but tonnes of first team games under their belts.

I think this is an absolutely great signing and you can really see what MA is trying to do here. You only have to look at the reaction from the MK fans and it tells you everything you need to know, it's quite amazing that we have prized away their best asset for nothing!
As an aside I don't wish devastation on any football club to be honest (okay maybe Liverpool as they are the illegitimate offspring of Everton and I can't stand them)

Would need a very well off Club to take over Payne's contract which we seem to be stuck with.
