posting a video of Wash back training just incase we don’t sign anyone?

Not a chance we’ve got £2.5m for Bird. 

He’s the lad we nearly signed in summer wasn’t he? 

Big Travs got my hopes up it’s going to be a good unexpected name can’t wait for disappointment when it’s Gregory

Ademola Lookman.... almost.  Fast as hell and would have made a top 2 difference in that Rowett side.

Wouldn’t you rather Brown? Give our own players a go

Played 107 minutes of first team football in 3 appearances off the bench, scored twice and assisted once

Think Fraser is slightly more ready for men’s football but I do wish Dajuane had been given more of a chance.

Why do you even bother if that's all you can come up with 

He might come in and score 10 goals you never know but I know if Bolton Pompey Peterborough or Barnsley we’re signing him I wouldn’t be fearing them anymore with him in the squad

Lee Gregory would be fine if there is nothing else we can get in. He's experienced, will be a handful and I'd fancy him to chip in with a few goals.
What annoys me is I am reading some fans on twitter using this as a stick to beat Warne with. "I'm worried about Warne and our transfer policy if this is what we're doing"
Do you think if we sat Paul Warne in a room he'd say that Lee Gregory was his number one target and one he has always wanted?
No he wouldn't. Ideally he'd want a 24-27 year old proven league one striker who's ready to go and good enough to step up to the championship but if there are any available then 1. They aren't going to be sold and 2. If they were, we can't afford them. At all.
It's like our fans have seen that we have next to nothing, had to dip into a loan pot for CBT and are just ignoring that. 
If Gregory comes in he'll get my support, he's a stop gap for the season. Gives us an option. Is he what I want? No. He's not. But he might be the best we can get given our budget.
I've seen people say they'll be livid if we sign Gregory and we should have kept Brown. Livid? If be more livid if we didn't bring someone in.
Brown is nowhere near ready yet. Thrusting a young player in early can ruin them. 
I remember when we got linked with Jordan Rhodes and people were kicking off then. He's second top goalscorer now.
But alas, it's all Warnes fault. Warnes fault we've got no money, Warnes fault our midfield is poor when half of them are out injured.

Plus he’s hardly going to go there and say Portsmouth’s a s**thole but the money’s good.

Pompey buying a reading defender for 75k surely se could go and rinse for them for Knibbs and smith 

Tricky though in January.
 

Depressing seeing players go elsewhere but not much we can do with the funds we have available
