chipdawg Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 SC on SSN now - asked about Gayle bid - any chance of resurrecting - Cotts thinks no and made a cryptic comment about what Gayle and his agent said (seems to have taken it a tad personally) and said those sort of things can prevent any chance of these deals resurrecting Sounds like Gayle & agent were dismissive about us or Cotts himself Cotts was very calm , controlled an thoughtfulThey also said in the lead in that he's denied we've had a bid accepted for Gray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDOXO Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 It would seem that in order for City to pickup/attract the type of player that they are looking for a message of intent is required! If we pick up an 8M value player this does send out a message of intent and thus will make them more attractive to other players/agents. However this will push the money required to buy players up, but SL SC and KB can worry about that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRISTOL86 Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 Valencia is out for at least 3 months and Carroll hasn't been fully fit for over a year. I suspect it would be either/or with regards bids for Gray or Austin, but I wouldn't rule them out. There was also something on twitter about Wet Brom being interested, but they're trying to get rid of strikers at the mo so seems unlikely to me Fair enough. But considering how dismissive people are about Gray reproducing his last season's form in the same league, the gamble is much bigger from Championship to Premiership. Austin is proven at the top level and would represent much less of a gamble for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petehinton Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 Have to ask yourself why this has been leaked, much like the Gayle deal they're looking for someone else to come in with a higher bid. That said I think this has much more potential than the Gayle deal, we're a bigger club (even with taking the city-tinted glasses off) than Brentford, with just as much chance as being in the Prem in the next 5 years as they have. He was immense on Saturday as well, so strong and powerful for a small player and took his goal really well. As someone mentioned before if we'd have had him in the positions Alby/Kodjia found themselves in in the first half we'd have been 5-1 up at half time.

Up The City! Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 Not sure I can handle another long thread. Although he may be a good player wouldn't we get more fpr our money if we went abroad and spent 8 million? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SARJ Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 Yeah they are massif to be fair. A whopping 800 of them made the short trip on the M4 Saturday.... A lot of our own fans are deluded about our size and successes, but if you asked a Northerner or Yank to point out on a map where Bristol is and where Brentford is, I'd hazard a guess that more would know/heard of us over another generic London hamlet.

Soul_Trader Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 James was a player at the end of his career who wanted a job close to home. SL wanted a 'name'. Don't think this is the same thing at all. SL wants premier league football for the club and is prepared to pay big transfer fees to get it, but not to ridiculously overpaid journeymen looking for a final big payday (not aimed at James) Whoosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
