Training camp begins Friday the 28th, and the play off finals are on that weekend. Don't think anyone that's playing in the finals will be in camp. Unless they fly at straight after their matches to meet up.

Played very well again tonight against Sunderland. Fast and direct going forward, but gets back and helps out the defence as well. Played wide right - a position where we're not overstocked with options. Only 22 as well. I could see him going on to have a better career than some of our more highly rated younger players.

Definitely warrants a call up in June.

The latter two are in L1 but this is our level for now when it comes to goal-scoring forwards.

not quite sure i agree with that... just because some players are scoring more at a lower level than those playing at a much higher level doesnt make them a better player.

if you put robinson or connolly into league 1 im pretty sure they would be scoring loads of goals. you go with your best players

There's Sean Roughan at Lincoln as well , who's only 17 but has played in the first team. He looks a good prospect and might have more chance of breaking through next season if they don't get promoted.
 

They have some cracking attacking players too 4/5 of them. If he stayed and like you say started more games it would be very very interesting to see could he match or go beyond this seasons goal tally. 

To answer McG question with 17 I suspect he is. McGrath had 16 at St Mirren close behind.

Is he the highest scoring Irish player in England and Scotland? Must be.

He has to be called up surely. He’s flying 17 goals and he mightn’t be done yet 2 games to go still. 

If Lincoln don’t go up do you think he gets a transfer? Has to be looked at surely considering his form.

I think he has a better shout of getting into the ireland team than parrott, idah, Shane Long, o,dowda, Brady, mcclean, maguire, obafemi or Horgan.

To be fair to him he's been one of their most important players in their run to promotion and I'd expect he will be a big player for them in the Championship next season so I wouldn't read too much into that.

Scully, like Cullen, seems to be benefitting from cutting ties with West Ham. Conor Coventry would be better doing the same rather than captaining their under 23s but never getting a look in with the first team. Go to a League 1 team, play games and develop as a senior footballer.

This lad is definitely the biggest positive regarding attacking players we have had this season. I see something about Mick McCarthy going to watch multiple Lincoln games a few weeks back. 

Brennan Johnson is going back to Notts Forest from what I see so every chance it may well be Scully he was going to watch. That’s if Lincoln don’t go up and every chance they will through the play offs the way they have played.

Will be really good to see him tested in the championship. There is definitely quality there, needs to up his fitness in my opinion but that can easily be managed
