Micky Mellon

[Pinter777]

Rumoured bid made by us

[vaya]

53. At least it would put to pay to the 'ability or experience' argument one way or another.

[Pinter777]

£180k release clause apparently

[DonnyOsmond]

Wheres this come from?

[GazLaz]

Isn’t he out of contract? Possible compensation.

[Ryaldinhio]

The one that was loan at Bradford second half of last year?

Played half a season and scored maybe a handful of goals at most????

[GazLaz]

He’s class. Would be an unreal signing for us.

[5minstogo]

One McCann could definitely improve numbers wise. Interesting if correct.

Sounds good Gaz. I don't know much about him.

signed 3.5 years Feb 2022

What type of player is he?

Remember he scored a cracking goal against us for Morecambe but not much else as I spent most of the game with my head in my hands.

[Pinter777]

Ile be honest just seen it on instagram so who knows .

It was the 5th of 5 from memory. You did well still being there!

[Jonathan]

Better profile of striker for us. Not seen or heard anything though?

[Wild Rover]

Michael Mellon, for those who don't know. Current club Burnley. Sounds useful on Wikipedia.

[scawsby steve]

Apparently he has a gorgeous sister called Honeydew.

Alright, alright. I'll get mi coat.

[colincramb]

He’s more of a target man type striker. If there’s any truth in this then surely it would signify the end of Joes time here

Plays with his “back to the ball & has a ‘nice’ scoring touch” according to Wiki.

He’s not 22 until December. If Grant ‘fancies’ him I think you’re probably right Colin.

Grant did say in his interview that he was waiting to hear from a Premiership club about a striker so perhaps Mickey is that man.

[Danmckay456]

Could the wide player Grant talked about be another player in question , Mellon looks more a cf than wide man

So was Street but he started out wide before being shifted

[Sammy Chung was King]

You’re twisting my Mellon man, with all this talk of Michael, call the cops!

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Just like the Jatta rumour, this appears to be out of the blue and another out of character move. I thought Grants reference to a fee being agreed with a Prem Club was a loan for a centre half, then a reference to a wide player being close.

I just don't see us taking that sort of risk with a young player who we've no previous connections with. I know this will disappoint a few as it maybe the type of investment we should be making.

If we were to spend 'big' it's more likely to be for a Rob Street, but that would be further down the line depending on how he fairs at Lincoln. I just don't see us being that far up the food chain yet.

My mistake, Grant was ‘talking to’ a Premiership club about a centre half.

Rumoured bid made by us

Why ?????

[IDM]

Why to the rumour, or why to the bid (if there is one).?

[ncRover]

To be fair, a younger more mobile version of Joe Ironside should have been a priority this summer and last.

But I can’t find any other mention of this rumour apart from the Rovers fan account on Instagram it came from. So maybe it’s just a good guess from them?

[Reg of the Rovers]

You’re twisting my Mellon man, with all this talk of Michael, call the cops!

Chance for him to step on in his career.

[In the box]

Why to the rumour, or why to the bid (if there is one).?

Either will do me it’s a none story .. people just getting board now ?

[BobG]

Why would people have all gone stiff?

[Alan Southstand]

This has resurfaced on X again. According to Tom Whitton, we’ve already had a fee agreed.

There has to be some breaking soon, as I’m also getting whispers about who the 2 cb’s are. And, no, I’m not leaking anything to anyone.
