I'll stick with my original assessment from his first spell here. Great guy shite footballer.
Do I want him in the team right now? Yes
Does he offer us something different? Yes
Would I like a better quality player signed in his place? Yes
Simple as that for me. Helping out a poor side for sure, but as soon as better quality comes in I'd want his position covered. It's just his chicken head decision making. Drives me nuts. Literally has no football brain, just an effort & good attitude type mentality.
Sorry!

mackie bugs , hassles and upsets defenders . it's common knowledge he runs down blind alleys at times and is not as skillful as others but he makes things happen. always gives 100% and inspires others . you have to earn being a crowd favourite it's not a given

I could be a crowd favourite in that case as I could do all that. Anyone with a bit of fitness and who gives a crap could in fact.
It's not enough I'm afraid. He needs to get back on that training ground and get schooled in final third decision making.
Don't get me wrong I really really like Mackie but I want him to switch on more. Simple as that really.

To be honest though, I'd take a Jamie Mackie type who gives his all over someone like Tjaron Chery any day of the week!

Needs to use his brain more and not his 'instinct'

Yesterday was the first time I've ever seen him attempt a stepover to beat a man instead of just kicking it past him and hoping it bobbles back into his path. The right sorta player for us now but there will need to be improvements to him soon."What stats allow you to do is not take things at face value.

mackie is more than just a headless chicken who just chases everything for us, he actually has a voice and imo is the real captain on the pitch. every game i've seen him in since he's come back he's been more vocal than anyone and his experience in this league is vital imo. he's not someone who can just be easily replaced atm as a new signing can't be a club stalwart overnight, it takes time and respect from the players on the pitch all of which he has.
he's crucial to our team atm and hopefully stays injury free
