Been confirmed Barnsley have signed him permanently, good signing for them and hope he goes on to do even better, was a joy to watch at times last season!

4 year deal, they could make some seriuos money if he continues to develop

Brilliant that he’s turned Hull down to sign for Dingles... continues to prove that McCan wasn’t as popular with the players as it looked from the outside.

I was led to believe by a friend who works for the club that McCann wasn’t particularly popular with the players.

Personally I don’tcare, he’s not gone to play for the snake, and I’m happywith that 😀

He can become a fantastic player if he maintains the right mental attitude.

That he's gone to the dingles fills me with no pleasure what so ever.

McCann got his valuations of players wrong again, just like he did with Buts and Tommy!

What goes around........

Not too bad if he's out in 18 months for good behaviour ;)

Seriously though, I guess they have a line in the contract that says if you end up doing time the contract is void.

Although the payment to Leeds presumably won't be.

Alex Ferguson wasn’t popular with his players. Weird thing football management.

Wish we could have kept him, think he's good now... potential to be better still. Of course this court case thing could scupper his whole career/life.

I’ve also heard the same from someone linked to the players... not one player came out to wish McCan good luck when he left. I heard him and butler especially didn’t see eye to eye

I think he was very popular with the Man U players

He would no doubt have been here had we gone up, hence a shame. Be interesting to see how he does at another club.

Pyssed Leeds fans off if nothing else going on what I've read on  social media platforms .

One cheeky tyke even offering up " are you our feeder club now then ? " given we have just taken two young players off them this week .

That went well   :woohoo:

The truth is of course is that Leeds are about the here and now and we have to go with potential .

Well I sincerely hope so mush , he will get an opportunity with us and Stendel really rates him , this one isn't off our spreadsheet this is Stendel telling the recruitment team I want him at this club .

The club have backed Stendel all the way on this one because there's a few moving parts going on with Malik .

I hope to god both Stendel and Malik have their reputations in tact once the season starts to get interesting .

I get the feeling Malik wasn't on the recruitment teams wish list and Daniel has pushed for this .

More going on politically at the club than what many may realise over this signing .

Paul Heckingbottom never had a say in one player the club brought in .

Good on him.

Although, i'd piss myself if he gets locked up. Half my family are Barnsley fans.

Our Board backed Mccann , it's good to see that the Hull Board are doing the same...not.

Malik " Barnsley made me feel wanted " poor old Grant , wonder if he's sleeping well tonight and not having any doubt's.

From what i've been told, it was Byrne who was the driving force in the dressing room and training pitch.

Offered the lad more money per week , personally I think GM's had his trousers down going to Hull , absolutely no way should we at this time as a newly promoted club be able to offer more than a 3 time PL club with a decent championship season behind them last season .

If I was GM tonight I'd wonder by I bothered in all honesty .

Very good player in our league but very frustrating as well be interesting to see how he does at a higher level, he was unplayable in some games in others not so much

He was great in flashes but let’s be honest, he could be extremely frustrating. If he’s going to cut it at the level above he must improve the basics and Become much more consistent. He’s got potential but by no means is he anywhere near the finished article.
