Honest answer I don't know

Wrexham have always seemed to have a preference towards older players. Obviously they have had a lot of success doing it but I wonder if a similar approach would not necessarily be as effective the higher up you go. They already have the likes of Rodriguez, McLean and Matty James.

Cairney is obviously a good player and I suspect would still do a good job at this level but he is 34 and hasnt really played much for a few years.

Can understand him dropping down for £50k and im sure he will say its the "challenge."

ACD is probably more suited to Prem style football than the Championship, certainly at the moment.

Looked quite decent at first but it all caught up with him physically and he lost confidence and was never really a Eustace style player anyway.

Wouldn't be writing him off at but this kind of thing will keep happening because these are developing players and we are a beg steal borrow development club.

Prem style football where they're bigger, better athletes?

I'd be amazed if he turns into a good player. He's so small and weak - similar to Markanday. Doesn't matter how technically good you are if everyone can just bully you.
