[10] The club's manager Ray Lewington said about McNamee in September 2002, saying: "I would agree with that and they did quite well. He is going to be the worst-kept secret. They showed him inside, which I would do if I was playing against him and that makes the crosses a little bit flatter. We have to work with him so that if he does come inside, he knows what to do then. That is part of his education." [11] For the remaining 2002–03 season, McNamee continued to feature in and out of the first team.
