Well apparently. This is going off just an SKD tweet btw.

I don't do twitter, and I'm not going to start.

So a quick couple of questions:

1) Who the f*ck is Rustycrank?
2) And why is his opinion taken any more seriously than, say, Sir Nut's?

Just wondering.

it isn't rustycrank's opinion, whoever the hell he is. Said crank asked SKD how long McCann was out for, and SKD replied that he had retired.

If he has then it deserves more than a mere twitter (did I mention I don't do twitter ??).

It will be a shame that his last action with us will be being brought on as a sub v Hull by Megson to a cacophony of boos the like of which I've never heard before. It wasn't you we were booing Gavin.

Best of luck !!

OK then, so at least that won't be his final first team memory.
