GM as re-iterated that Luke is staying at Tranmere till the end of the season in an interview from the Sheffield Star.

 Therefore he must still believe he will not strengthen the first team squad and it’s better for him to stay there and play games week in week out.

I read that as well Steve; it confirms what many of us suspected, that we won't see either McCullough or Mandeville in a Rovers shirt again.

   The only surprise is that we stopped him playing in the FA cup first two rounds, unless Grant is now confident of signing a replacement. It will be interesting to see if he now plays in the third round if they win their replay.

He's said before that was because J Anderson was stopped from playing by Posh so should we lose him and recall Luke that would make Luke cup tied. If we sign some new players in Jan who can play in the cup then i reckon we'll allow Luke to play

  I don't think he can play in the replay though, having not been available for the first game. If he can play in the next round and is given permission   to play in the 3 rd round, I would expect us to be able to watch him pitch his wits against a premiership forward line on the TV.

My dad still talks about that bizarre excellent run he made up the middle in the lead up to Tyson's goal (I think) in that Stoke game.

I remember it well, a brilliant run by Luke to set up Tyson's goal.

And it was no Luke fluke.

I'd say considering McCullough's general style and lack of mobility, it was quite bizarre. I'm not criticising, it was terrific and he did really, really well. The fact it wasn't something you usually saw from him is what made it stand out.

Like Keegan's awesome free kick at Burton a few years ago, or Mark Wilson bagging a brace from distance against Derby. Brilliant Rovers memories from players not known for their brilliance.

If he could do/did that on a weekly basis he would still be at Old Trafford never mind at Rovers

Grant knows who he wants .LM not cuptied so may attract a club or Tranmere to sign him in  Jan.
