Why would we just put bums on seats costing us money when we had just cleared out better players than these two and look who's sons they are ? ? ?
Surely the question is, how well do we know Mckay really?

"Others like former Leeds twins Jack and Paul McKay, Ibrahim Meite and Ciaron Brown — brought in from non-league — as well as Tyrone Duffus and Ogo Obi (formerly with other Premier League sides) have arrived to plug gaps, but between them none have made a league start for Cardiff.
Slow going then, but Warnock knew that when he began the clearout. The rewards are to come further down the line."
Cardiff City's youth overhaul analysed, their struggling Under-23s and the teenagers offering real hope for the future
"I don't feel the Under-23s has solved the problem it was brought in for," surmised Neil Warnock less than two months into his Cardiff City reign.
Not content with giving the Bluebirds' first team a much-needed shot in the arm after his October 2016 appointment, the veteran manager had his sights set on a complete overhaul of the youth set-up.
Warnock being Warnock, there were immediate changes.
Four days later, Under-23s manager Kevin Nicholson left the club. First team coaches Kevin Blackwell, Ronnie Jepson and James Rowberry were handed a more prominent role in youth development.
A week or so after that, Craig Bellamy rejoined the club as player development manager and Jarred Harvey took over the Under-23s set-up, joined in July 2017 by former Cardiff defender Andy Legg.
In the time since December 2016, 16 players under the age of 24 have left Cardiff City, either by having their contracts terminated or by mutual consent.
So, two years on, how much has actually changed?

The exodus
Nicholson cited that his departure was due to an "internal restructuring exercise".
The former Derby and Exeter coach wasn't the only one to leave during that turbulent time for the club's youth structure.
Semi Ajayi, Jamie Bird, Luke O'Reilly, Deji Oshilaja, Robbie Patten, Theo Wharton, Declan John, Oliver Byrne, Macauley Southam, Ashley Baker, Tom James, Tommy O'Sullivan, Eli Phipps, David Tutonda, Rollin Menayese and Jordan Blaise — that's the giant list of former Cardiff City Under-23 players to have departed in the past two years.
"I don't think players get anything out of their games," said Warnock, who wanted to reduce the average age of the Under-23s side.
He felt there were too many players aged 21, 22 or 23 taking up spots in the system when they were never going to make his first XI.
“We used to have the reserve leagues and play the pros who weren't in the first team with the young lads and you used to have competitive games. But it's almost like a five-a-side now – and unfortunately for these young lads they've been failed by the system," said Warock.
Neil Warnock at his first press conference with Club Chairman Mehmet Dalman.
“It's not a new thing from my point of view, I've written to the League Manager's Association and voiced my concerns to the PFA regarding it.
“I don't see the logic of it, and all the coaching that's involved, if we're not getting the players through.
“I don't think it's helping us and I don't think it's giving the younger players, the 18-year-olds, the right opportunities either.
“The lads in the 18s have to come up now, they have to have opportunities. Having so many Under-23s that aren't going to get in the first-team, I felt it needed restructuring, for the long-term future.”
The next Ramsey
The reason for the overhaul was simply that Warnock (and Bellamy) shared the frustrations of many Cardiff fans, who haven't seen a homegrown player graduate through the ranks into the first team since the side of Aaron Ramsey, Joe Ledley and Chris Gunter.
You might include Adam Matthews and Declan John in that bracket, but neither made a significant mark on the first team.
And it seems Wales boss Ryan Giggs isn't entirely comfortable with Cardiff's production line either.
"(Graham Potter) is doing a great job... Swansea are getting their heart and soul back because I think it's important to have local players," said the Wales boss last month.
"We just need Cardiff to start doing that now!"
Joe Ralls and Kadeem Harris came through the Cardiff Under-23s, but were signed from Farnborough and Wycombe respectively when they were still developing.
Joe Ralls, Kadeem Harris and Declan John all broke into the first team at one stage
Rhys Healey, another who was not originally produced by Cardiff's academy but developed by them, has been the biggest recent hope but he has just turned 24 and would appear to have found his level in League One or League Two.
The next stage of the Warnock and Bellamy overhaul was to promote Under-18s such as midfielder James Waite, forward Mark Harris and right-back Cameron Coxe into the Under-23s side.
Warnock has picked Waite to travel with the first-team squad in recent weeks and he played in pre-season at Rotherham, but he's not yet been included in the matchday 18.
Coxe is a player many still have high hopes for at Cardiff. Still just 19, he made his first team debut in last season's League Cup defeat to Burton but hasn't featured since and may benefit from a loan move.
Harris broke into the first-team picture at the end of the 2016/17 season when a mid-table Cardiff had little to play for, but his progress stalled.

The Welshman joined Newport County on loan in the summer but hasn't started a league game for the Exiles since their 6-0 defeat by Yeovil in mid-September.
Others like former Leeds twins Jack and Paul McKay, Ibrahim Meite and Ciaron Brown — brought in from non-league — as well as Tyrone Duffus and Ogo Obi (formerly with other Premier League sides) have arrived to plug gaps, but between them none have made a league start for Cardiff.
Slow going then, but Warnock knew that when he began the clearout. The rewards are to come further down the line.
The reality
Cardiff City's Under-23s compete in the Professional Development League, which replaced the Under-21 Professional Development League 2 from 2016/17, bringing together 21 Under-23 sides from 'Category Two' academies.
The teams are split into two regional divisions with a national play-off deciding who is named overall champions.
The competition is one academy tier below Premier League Two where the 24 'Category One' academy clubs play — including Swansea City's successful Under-23 side — and there is no promotion or relegation.
Becoming a 'Category One' academy is the only way Cardiff's youngsters could rub shoulders with Manchester United, Man City, Liverpool et al.
Not that their form has been anything to write home about — perhaps an expected byproduct of the club's long-term approach.
The Bluebirds youngsters have been competing in the south division of PDL for the past two and a half seasons, finishing third in 2016/17 and ninth in 2017/18. They currently sit seventh with just six wins since February.
The results in a tricky eight-month period
