David McGoldrick

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

600 games not bad for an injury prone.

 

[John Street West Terrace]

Quality intelligent player & great bloke with it .. nothing but respect for him .. up there with our best free transfers in my time .( just wish he’d put that pen away vs the oinks ) .. always looked to see if he’s notched ..wish him nothing but the best

 

[Derek1889]

Was a quality player for us. Link up runs passing was great. If he was better at shooting (not saying he was terrible) I think he'd have played at higher level.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Never replaced him

 

[s20Blade]

Like others said if he could shoot he'd have many more premier league caps under his belt. We got alot of luck from players that did nothing before around the same time.

 

[Booker4]

Didzy at his best. Class.

Thought it was worth sharing.

 

[bonobo]

He did love the strike. He was more accurate bending the ball from 25 yards out, than passing it into an open goal from 6 yards.... Wish we still had him.

Spot on. He could score the shots you didn't think he couldn't, but would miss the ones that you thought he would.

Still, a class player and a joy to watch.

Notts County fans love him.

Who’d have thought it?
Ex winger Mark Duffy was given a free role and told to roam around that area between midfield and attack.

He was impossible to pick up because of his constantly changing position, this was famously called “the Duffy role”.

When Duffy left we wondered how we would progress going forward and to everyone’s surprise McGoldrick had the intelligence to play that floating position even better.

Even at Premier league level in some games he stood out as one of the best players on the pitch. Him and Duffy are 2 of my favourite players this century.

As you say….a joy to watch and a humble, great guy too. He could play at a higher level and earn more money but it’s so typical of him to finish his career playing for the club he supported as a boy.

 

[bornandbred]

I put Didzy up there with the likes of TC and Woody as one of my alltime favourite players.

 

[SGBlade]

Didzy at his best. Class.

Ah, this is quality. There are some ex-players who I’ll follow with slight interest eg McB, Ndiaye recently. Mainly because they’re playing at a high level and am vaguely intrigued how they’ll get on.

But there are some players who make me still feel almost like a fan and I’ll actively want them to smash it, even to the point of hoping their clubs do well (except against us, obv). Didsy is one. Legend and top bloke, like so many of that vintage.

[ben1987]

Can’t believe he was struggling for a start at the back end of last season. Absolute baller

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

Reminded me of that one he scored at Hull for us.

 

[Nedski]

Reminded me of that one he scored at Hull for us.

It never made sense, he didn't seem able to shoot with any power and had an odd technique which made it look like he scuffed every shot. But then he was also able to seemingly side foot it in the top corner from 25-30 yards.

Am off to Doncaster next Saturday to see Billy and McGoldrick on opposite sides.

 

[Bradfordblade]

Didzy! Rolls - Royce of a player and class act. Billy Sharp not bad either!!

 

[Stewy]

Another cracking goal by Didsy.. pity we did t get him a couple of years younger .. best free signing ever

Prime McGoldrick would transform this team. We're desperate for some control in the final third.

What a player.

[Yellarbellyblade]

Love the man, what a goal Didzy lad.

 

[lazyfecklessblade]

Don’t think I’ve ever known a player bring a smile every time I see him like Didz. Could do 1000 words easily on why he’s so wonderful - fortunately for everyone I won’t.

 

[DronnieBlade]

Minutes managed correctly, he could still more than hack it in the Championship.

His 39 goal partnership season alongside BS our best pairing since Deane n Agana.

UTB

 

[N20 Blade]

Reminded me of that one he scored at Hull for us.

What a day, what a team & Leeds lost the evening game. Seeing George cross for the 3rd brought a tear to my eye.

 

[bornablade]

Didzy doesn't play by the script. An instinctive footballer. That's why we pay to watch the game.

 

[Darlington82]

Who missed some ryte sitters, ffs some ryte Rose tinten glasses on here. He was good but not as good as some of your memories.

 

[dillis]

Arguably our greatest ever signing

 

[103SecondsOfMagic]

Oh David McGoldrick
