I’d sign him in a heartbeat.
After 4 goals and 4 assists? Not for me, definitely not from someone who was supposed to be the player that stuff goes through. Achieved near modern day legend status for his performances in 21/22 but last season he was pretty poor. Mitigating circumstances in terms of his fitness and the system we played/didn't play. But for 80% of the time he didn't even look effective in League Two.

The chap who was in the queue outside Wybers fish shop told me that his sister ( the sister of the man in the queue )said that her sister was talking to a man in a queue outside a fish shop ( not Wybers ) who asked for fish and chips twice and a fishcake with scraps on the fishcake but not on the chips as they were for a neighbour who was on a diet. Any way to get to the point this neighbour who was on a diet goes to that new gym on the seafront and gets talking to one of the fellow customers who had just bought a pair of shoes from Pavers. She said that she had tried to return them as they were giving her blister but Pavers were reluctant as she had trodden in some goose excrement when she went for a walk round the boating lake. - told me that he wouldn't be loaned to Town.
"Scraps!" and what no mushy peas ..Hhhmm yes sorry what footballer was it about ,you lost me at a Grimsby "Chippie" . UTM2023--24.

Mitigating circumstances agreed. I think he felt under pressure to show how good he can be and it held him back. For me, if we had the right system/type of players around him, it would be an absolute no brainer to have him back here. It will be very difficult to get someone better in my opinion. If fit and in the right team he is minimum a top league 2 player, likely much more than that.

McAtee's last season was blighted by injury.
When fully fit, as in his first season, he has graced Town - his movement, commitment and willingness to go for goal are great.
He's got the team and the crowd going so many times (yeah...when fully fit). Proper star quality.
The Solihull, Wrexham and Chesterfield goals are terrific memory moments, just for starters.
I'm sorry he's leaving us, and hope that he dazzles and produces wherever he plays next.
Also, he prefers mushy peas to scraps. Top man.

That's crazy because i was stood outside a chip shop and a chap who was in the queue (outside Wybers fish shop) told a strange looking bloke who was just infront of me in the queue that his sister ( the sister of the man in the queue )said that her sister was talking to a man in a queue outside a fish shop ( not Wybers ) who asked for fish and chips twice and a fishcake with scraps on the fishcake but not on the chips as they were for a neighbour who was on a diet. Any way to get to the point this neighbour who was on a diet goes to that new gym on the seafront and gets talking to one of the fellow customers who had just bought a pair of shoes from Pavers. She said that she had tried to return them as they were giving her blister but Pavers were reluctant as she had trodden in some goose excrement when she went for a walk round the boating lake. - told me that he wouldn't be loaned to Town.

But his sisters sister is his sister too surely? Or are they step sisters? I think we need to clear this up.

Possibly sisters in law? Something doesn’t add up.

Perhaps they are from Lincoln. In which case also possibly Mother and daughter. !! Did anyone count their fingers ???
