    £6m is a lorra lorra money as someone used to say....

    So we'll have 4/5 strikers then with the guy from Villa (Robinson), Wilbs, Agard, Burns and Gayle

    palace paid 6.5 million for him from Peterborough,he gave Liverpool a torrid time in the 3-3 draw ran em ragged.

    a real sign of intent.

    Burns was only likely to have had squad involvement in my opinion, Wilbs I guess wont feature week in week out, with then the choice from Gayle, and choice of Kodjia, Agard, (again feel would struggle in championship) and Robinson who is relatively inexperienced game wise. Suddenly a lot of striking options. Leaving the transfer activity quite late or is it a knee jerk reaction to Saturday?

    Yeah I forgot Kodija....! Given the latest developments which are excellent, it does make picking Wilbs as Captain even more peculiar unless it's a club captain with a holistic view he's going to be, rather than team captain...?

    This could be the case. Think how much Wadey played after Christmas last season.

    THAT'S MORE LIKE IT! Our fans like to talk about the stupid prices in this league, but the fact is that there are more teams in the Championship that would be willing to throw this kind of money for a player like Gayle than wouldn't. If we want to be running with that group we need to spend.

    With that being said, our strategy of spending **** all on our squad and then blowing £6m on one player is a strange one. Could this be a panic buy after our loss against Wednesday? Maybe Cotts has put his foot down and demanded firepower, and after our loss the board have given in.

    I think it's all been happening behind the scenes anyway, 3 new signings and a possible 4th costing £6million just doesn't happen in 3/4 days, things have been developing and possibly there could be more to come..

    SL said in an interview a few days ago we needed 3 or 4 more players, to much of a coincidence, lets keep the faith..

    Can't say I know what to believe any more. Some places are reporting the deal as done, whereas ESPN say that he's snubbed us.
