I heard today that this Gray lad is a bit of a gangsta type from Wolverhampton. Scar on his face was a knife attack, apparently.

Hope he's turned a corner.

Tis true according to his wiki. Just seen he played for Hinckley United, I've a mutual acquaintance who's played for them for years, I'll be able to find out a lot more about him.

Fair play to him for turning his life around.

Lad at work, Liverpool supporter, also from Wolverhampton, gave me the run down on him today said he had a bit of a reputation.

Andre Gray likely to be a Hull City player within days. Fee around £9m. Lucky Luton Town. 20% sell on means a £1.8m bounty for the Hatters

I quite like the idea of The Hatters getting £1.8M; I think they are a bit of a role model in some respects:

Trust in Luton has, since March 2014, held the legal right to veto any changes to the club's identity, including name, nickname, colours, club crest and mascot.


Trust in Luton
is their Trust, which is represented on the board - the official supporters group amalgamated with the trust - a good thing, IMO.
 
Ehab has negotiated with top teams in the past and successfully brought in players that we should have never really had a chance of signing.

No idea where you get that from; try considering the Ince debacle.
 
Your maybe right but he didn't come with much experience and this latest saga does smack a little bit more of his dad than it does Ehab. I'd still rather have a Pearson in these situations however.

Problem is, I think Pearson is an over-rated twat: always have, always will.

Aluko being heads up and far more aware?
Aluko being good one on one with the goalkeeper?
I thought these were Aluko's biggest failings? Along with falling down and being a crap penalty taker.

If you read the posts you will see that your comments were already acknowledged and then discussed as a possible improvement; do try and keep up.
 
I agree but maybe they don't want to expose him in central defence too soon? I know that way of thinking can be bad!

He's a class CB, play him as a CB, nothing hard about that. I can only think injuries have forced the aberration.

The Ince spell was very weird. I thought he was lightweight with Palace and not very good with us. You wondered why Bruce bought him. Then we sell him for a profit!
