CliftonCliff Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Sorry if the title got you all excited there for a moment, but I just noticed on the BBC Sport site that Palace have signed Connor Wickam from Sunderland for the same sum that SC says he was recently quoted for a forward. Probably mere coincidence, but just wondered, like... (I am, by the way, aware that Sunderland paid something similar to sign him in the first place.)

TETBURY MASSIVE Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Nope wasn't him...... The striker in question I'm led to believe was Andre Gray from Brentford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmersonsRed Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Wickham has a bigger ego than Ronaldo and you think I'm kidding. Used to live in Sunderland, bloke is a complete cock. Would never drop down to Championship again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeAman08 Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 7m is ridiculous for almost any championship striker. Think Gestede will live up to it. Rhodes is worth a bit(not the 14m being bid for him tho). As far as who it could be maybe Andre Gray, doubt we'd enquire about Afobe after his January to May but he'd probably command a fee. Noah Dicko I doubt is 7m. It would have to be a case of asking for something you should know is out of your range though, wouldn't it? Other young experienced English strikers would be Zach Clough, Mason Bennett, Cauley Woodrow and Gary Madine. So truth is no one will know but best guesses would be Gray and Gayle and that's only if we are sticking with the U25 scheme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor Wickham however, is somewhat of a hero up here in Sheffield, we have a thread started about him most days on Owlstalk. Many managed to convince themselves he'd come back to us permanently, but wasn't he on about 50k a week or something silly at Sunderland? He's gotten far too much credit for his career so far, the only time he scored consistently was during his loan spell at us. Be interesting to see how he does at Palace.

I doubt we even enquired for him. I doubt I'm wrong. Completely unrealistic target. Slight possibility we might have made a 'long shot' enquiry at some point but would never have been a serious target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I'd assumed as well, although Loyal Red seemed pretty adamant it was Smith when you look at some of his posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoyalRed Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Some people seem a little slow on the uptake...it was Gray...thread over. It was not Andre Gray, Brentford wouldn't sell their best player and top scorer having just missed out on the playoff final to the premiership to a team newly promoted from L1.
