The grass is not always greener Magnus and as much as I like you I feel you will struggle in the Championship. Its a big step up and I hope you do well if you get your wish to play at a higher level. I feel if the club had offered you what you deserved then you would still be a Col Utd player. Good luck mate and I will miss your huge grin when I saw you.

great shame to see Magnus go, sounds like he's on his way to Charlton. Been at great servant for CUFC, ever since debut in 'that game' against Norwich. Lets hope we see an influx of players now. Apparently announcements are imminent.... what have people heard and who do you realistically think we could get? Heard rumours of Vassell and Sears for the attack.......

Oh dear Magnus you are a good player, but not good enough for championship. As a Col Utd fan im not too bothered about him leaving, as I feel that Eastman and Heath can form a good partnership also Bender may get his chance. Wheres Aldred?
