Reported that Bristol City are about to spend £8,000,000 on Andre Gray, who signed for Brentford last summer for something like £500,000.
1. Good bit of business for Brentford
2. How on earth could Swindon compete in that division without that sort of money
3. Eight-fucking-million

We go up, and sell our players for the same sort of prices. Sign cheap, profit rich. |

Also goes to prove how desperate City are. They are leaking all these goals...and they go out and buy a striker. |

And because they're desperate, and they've complained about being so in the media, the prices go up.
It is delicious.

Luton Town will earn something like £1,800,000 from this (if the now reported £9 million is accurate).
I bet Nick Owen is desperate for this to go through.

9 (NINE) FUCKING MILLION!
Jesus. Football is very very silly. 24 years old and scored 18 in 47 in the championship. Surely Im worth at least a grand or 2. 44 and scored a couple in the springfield five a side league in 1990.

Shitheads want their nose in the Prem trough and that doesn't come cheap....manage it and the forthcoming largesse makes 9 mil look like loose change. I'm probably in a minority, but I'd rather see us shopping around in the Glentoran market for 50K players.....than aiming for that shit. |

But, they do have a billionaire owner to back it up.
Hope they go for it and still fuck up

With such a mature and level-headed manager, I don't think that's likely Audrey.

£9m players in the Championship should be spearheading a tilt at the PL not just to keep a team in the Championship.
One forward, £9m or not, will not get a club promoted.
It's like putting a gold condom on a 2 inch dick

Wouldn't that scale of transfer fall foul of financial fair play rules?

To a man we feel for you and i suspect the "size isn't important" element of the female population do also. However, how much is the gold worth? |

Andre Gray's transfer was apparently more in the £6m region.
