Malcolm MacDonald reply

[rcsmg1]

I wrote to Malcolm via Real Radio at the beginning of the month and had my cards back signed today.

Macdonald started out as a full back before switching to centre forward.Bobby Robson paid £1,000 to sign him for Fulham in 1968.A year later he moved to Luton Town where he scored 49 times in 88 matches,which prompted Newcastle to sign him for £180,000 in the summer of 1971.At Newcastle he scored a hat-trick on his home debut against Liverpool,and was the club's top scorer for five seasons in a row.While at Newcastle he made his debut for England and on 16 April 1975 in a game for England against Cyprus he scored all five goals in a 5–0 victory.In total he played 14 times for his country scoring six times (the only other game he scored in being a 2–0 win over then World Champions West Germany) Macdonald left Newcastle for Arsenal in 1976, for the unusual fee of £333,333.33, and played two full seasons (being the club's top scorer in both), but suffered a knee injury in a League Cup match against Rotherham at the start of the 1978–79 season, from which he was unable to recover and he announced his retirement from playing at the age of 29 in August 1979.

Great cards as always. You can see from those pics where the lads from Supergrass got their look from. 🙂
