Lets stop the love crap for Cody McDonald look at Billy Sharp of Sheffield Utd., he has scored 26, THATS TWENTY SIX F''ING GOALS , and McDonald had scored what 9 or 10 , Josh Wright has scored 12, so why all this man love for Cody Mac, we don't need him , we need to go out and get someone that can score goals not some guy that scores 10 or 12 in a season and thinks he is something special. Jesus Christ give me a break, go and get John Akinde from Barnet, or Godden Steven from Luton if they don't get promoted, some 10 goal a season player is going to do nothing in a promotion battle as long as you have a hole in your ass.
We scored two goals after the 90 minute mark, WELL DONE GILLINGHAM, best three points we have had all season, but please don't count on that happening every game.

Oh yes we do need him. Probably the only player in the side who has both the pace and confidence to have taken both those chances. Most important THREE POINTS. Hoping we can avoid relegation in time for that moron Trump to consign us all to Kingdom come.

[gillsfan1066]

Then keep him, I don't care any more, point at Charlton and we should be safe , then the summer off ,golf ,cricket,sunshine then the start of new season, new manager, new players complete summer overhall from manager to boot boy, and off we go to the Championship Division, FA CUP win, ELC Win and EUROPE in 2019.GO GILLS.

[Garawa]

Definitely. You'd pay good money for a striker that is capable of 15 goals EVERY season. Yes a few have got similar totals but the key is they won't do it EVERY season. Cody has 12 with no service in a poor side. Give him a player like Bayo or Marquis and he will get 18 or more and we won't have to fork out a small fortune for him.

[gillsfan1066]

I am beginning to think 50 points is not going to be enough, 51 might not even be, we need to beat Charlton and take at least a point from someone else, anyone from 15th place down could easily be relegated, oh and Charlton are that 15th placed team.

How many players have scored 81 goals for Gillingham? Cody is in the top 7 all time goalscorers for Gillingham.I think it is amazing that Cody has 12 goals this season considering the poor service he gets week in week out.The two goals he scored on Friday were both out of nothing.Some fans want him to be let go in the Summer,amazing really when it would cost £300,000 for a similar player.If he stays next season he could really chase down 100 goals for the club.For me is a legend of the club and the history books show that.

[gillsfan1066]

Go and get Vaughn from Bury, he has only banged in 22 this season, must have been getting great service from that table topping outfit, go get Miller from Dover the second they miss promotion, I am pretty convinced that Gillingham without a 20+ goal scoring player are NOT going to get promotion. Cody Mac's record does not in my 'umble opinion make him a $300,000 player, which is why no one came after him before this season started.
2013/14 17 goals
2014/15 16 goals
2015/16 5 goals, (yes I know)
2016/17 13 goals
Think I see a trend starting here, and we want to keep him so he can score 12 or 13 goals next season and set some sort of record one of only 6 or 7 to score a 100 goals and how great will it be if he is wearing a Gillingham shirt .
YYYEEAAHHHHH , that will be great wonderful Cody Mac scores his 100 goal on the last day of the season, as Gillingham lose to Table topping Dover and get relegated for the 153 rd time in their History.
Time to cut ties with old man Cody Mac , jeezz the guys like 33 now, thats on the down slope, time to go after Vaughen ,or Miller, Cheek from Braintree, someone that can put 20 in the back of the net next season.

[Garawa]

Cody has not had the partner he had in recent seasons. We ALL know he needs a partner but Jed played him at front on his own. He is consistent. Vaughan could well be like Pope, one good season then fail to achieve anything in following ones. At least with Cody you know you are guaranteed 15 goals if you set up right instead of spending £300,000 on a player that will score 4.

[gillsfan1066]

Two years out of the last six this guy averaged 15 goals , since 2010 he has averaged about 7 goals a season, SEVEN, jeezz I could go out and get 20 guys that can score 7 goals a season and they sure as hell won't cost 300,000 pounds and they won't be a 31 year old with a year or two left to play.
NOW is the time to sell him, if you can, better sell him a year early than get nothing next year, isn't he out of contract this year ??

[Garawa]

Yes, out of contract in the summer so we either offer him a new deal which I'd expect him to sign but won't cost us much or let him go and spend out on a player that may or not do the business. Better to spend the money on the defence in my opinion.
