I wouldnt take much not of any of the EFL Trophy games, they played Uniteds U23s in the previous round which was akin to a training game for them and Bradford of League Two's B team tonight. In the league he has 3 goals for them in 5 games which is good going, but 2 of them were also penos. So lets not get too carried away and see how hes gets on.

On the mark again tonight. 7 goals and we only in August. If he can stay fit it's going to be a bit of craic seeing what sort of goal tally he can assemble. He is a real natural goalscorer what he level he can keep translating that to time will tell.

He will never get an easier hat trick in his life. United played a back 3 for the opening 30 minutes with 1 CB, and I mean actually operated with 1 CB and played like it was a back 4. The LB just played as a normal LB, the CB played as a normal LCB, and the RB (who is actually a CM) just ran around clueless on the right side (where Scully was). Was a shambles.
If he is fit though he is worth a call up all the same, goals are goals at any level and with our struggling to score against the likes of Gibraltar we could use someone who can score even against the worst opposition.

He went off after he pulled up with what looked like a groin-strain so I'd not be surpised if he's out for a few weeks.

It's stat padding to an extent with tonights game but 5 goals in 5 games is fairly impressive stuff from Scully. Is Lincolns main man will be exciting to see what numbers he can hit this year just hope he stays fit now!

I've seen the parrott goal for MKDons over the weekend and it was a very good goal, his movement and finish were excellent.
Watched the scully goal scored over the weekend for the first time and his movement and finish was sublime. There's a few games (3 I think) between now and Portugal and if scully continues this level of football he needs to be in the squad. If parrott is, then scully needs to be as well.

I think there was a game or 2 where mick had lads called up and he still didn't give Scully a look. Pretty sure they aren't fussed on the lad in the setup.

To be fair to Kenny he did have Idah, parrott and connolly at u21s when he was there.

You're reading me wrong. Completely agree with you. I'm giving him credit for calling them up.

...and who would you propose replaces them playing at a higher level? They're not there for the craic. This is where we are at the moment.

Hopefully this season is a turning point in that regard. He's completed the 90 minutes in all three games so far this season.

Scully is a very talented player by all accounts and is consistently in and around the goals at league 1 level. He will/should be tested at the higher level in the championship and I feel he'll do very well there too.
The only criticism is his fitness playing 90 mins at a high tempo. He just doesn't last the game. After the hour He seems to run out of steam and need to take a few minutes to recover. This gets him subbed more often than not. If he can work on that and manage his fitness better, he'll be brilliant for us.

I don't see how calling up a Lincoln player is ant different to calling up a Portsmouth, Rochdale, Ipswich or MK Dons player to be honest. Hopefully in a few seasons time we'll be back to not calling up League 1 players very often but right now we have no choice but to call up quite a few of them, and he was more deserving of a call up in June based on form than some others who got the call.

this is it he’s playing with Lincoln context is needed. We did have League 1 call ups in the squad in attack so I can see the angle.
If he keeps banging in the goals for them this season then he will eventually go up a division/get that call up. I like Scully he gets that Championship move eventually for me and after that who knows.
