 Scores 1 goal per 4 games. Average strike rate. But we do need a striker.

Only seen him on the box. Very eager, full of running. Missed a sitter against us last time. But his running would give us something we don't have I suppose.
The above IS NOT A LEGAL DOCUMENT. It is an opinion.

We may yet hear the horse talk.

I can stand my own despair but not others hope

He more a winger than striker.
And yes we do need a striker...

£3 million seems a bit steep however whist Mackie has limitations as player his capacity to run around and press the opposition and show real tangible effort may well have a positive effect of everyone else. He is pretty much the opposite to Berbatov.

Wouldn't be able to do much sitting on the bench behind Jol's favoutire sons Dimi, Bryan and Hugo

When QPR were in the doghouse last season Mackie seemed to be the only one that gave a toss, and he scored some vital goals. That said, unless my memory is cuckoo (highly possible), he seemed to be more of an impact sub than a regular starter. May be wrong though.

He has plenty of energy and commitment, which seems to be something that we are missing at the moment.

It doesnt say we have made a bid it says us and Norwich are interested in him and may put in in a bid! A big big difference to actually making a bid! get the fsacts right before posting.......

He's a bit like Dirk Kuyt. If we are going to be dragged into a relegation dogfight then Mackie is the sort of player we need.

I would take him. 3 mil isn't too much either for a guy who has scored some good goals in the prem.

I remember watching them towards the end of last season and he stood out for the reason above. His work rate was top class and he did pick up a few goals for them too.
Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

He is a lot better than he is given credit for has premiership experience and  065.gifwould be a useful addittion to the squad

Erm just a quick one. I like the guy but surely if our budget is as tight as it seems, we don't need yet another winger do we? Surely we need to improve in other areas not making this a priority? Lazy journalism me thinks.

we need central midfielders!! Our problems stem from the fact we are chasing games instead of controlling them

Personally I think this one could be true and not lazy journalism. We aren't scoring any goals and we have no pace, mackie could be the man to provide both those things.

a conditional yes as he always seem to be trying

conditional because I am not sure how good he is a crossing ? ( even trying we do not need another winger who cannot cross )
