To be honest I just don't want Gray here. I think he is over rated and after this purple patch in his career will just end up an average championship striker. At the moment we don't need him. If something happens before deadline day then maybe we should do something, but I'd rather invest that money in centre mid.

You mean like that Scot who can play a central midfield role? The one we're bringing in on Monday?

Think it's a risk. £9million is steep - but Harry Kane was a "mediocre Championship striker" a few years back, and look at him now.
All a big risk. Saying ' just pay it' is a joke. We had a budget for the lad, they want a ridiculous quantity and we've not acted like a bunch of kids and thrown the money at something which could come back and haunt us, especially now we are in division 2, with the current squad we don't need a striker.

The 'ridiculous quantity' they want is 500k more than we're offering. It's not like they want 5m more..

So you are relaxed about risking not getting a striker in and then losing most of our strikers?
 
Happy to be corrected if I am wrong Madrid, but I note you have mentioned the term 'bad boy' and something similar in a previous post. Is this really about the money for you, or have you taken a dislike to him for some other reason? If we lose our strikers we are unlikely to get in any quality before the deadline, so your argument doesn't quite stack up to my mind. Not having a go just curious!

Doesn't matter, you can't just buckle at everything. If I was buying into an investment with risk attached I wouldn't just say 'oh go on then' it's Allan's cash maybe he doesn't just want to throw another half a million at someone

Who is Allan? You mean MacError?
 
You are a proper idiot.

All this **** was sparked by you.

You're a boring ****.

Your post stats are deteriorating with each post.

For somebody who's allegedly made over 10,000 posts on message boards I would have thought you'd be able to use & understand the simple reply function.

Did I mention, you're a boring ****?

It's "apologise".
Not with a U.S. spel chequer. Now apologize.

Seems a bit of a pollock and not worth 9m. That's it

Maybe he doesn't but that doesn't make it right.
It depends on judgement about what a difference it makes to going up and what we can gain by doing it over not doing it.
