Mullin gives credit to managers

JOSH Mullin insists he is in no rush to follow Jamie Lindsay to England.

Watching Lindsay join English League One side Rotherham felt like losing a brother, as Mullin relayed on Twitter, with the pair becoming great friends last season.

The ex-Livingston winger faced his own feverish transfer speculation during the close season after lighting up the Championship title campaign with 14 goals and 21 assists.

With Polish club Legia Warsaw and several from north and south of the border showing interest, County’s management team made contingency plans for losing the 26 year-old.

However, Mullin, while ambitious, is nothing but level-headed about his future and felt he had unfinished business with the Staggies.

Speaking for the first time about extending his stay through to summer 2021, Mullin said: “I keep banging on about it but the main thing for me is definitely the managers and how they’ve helped improve my game.

“That was massive for me. Starting this league campaign, you can see the way I’m going into games. I’m feeling confident. That’s all down to the managers.

“For me, there was no reason for change right now.”

As for Lindsay’s departure in an undisclosed six-figure deal, Mullin admitted: “It might sound a bit daft but it was hard to see him go.

“He loved it here at Ross County, just as I do, but loads of boys don’t get these opportunities. The managers were big on that as well. When you do, it is hard to turn them down.”
