Curtains Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 What does Andy Cole going to Brizzle prove ? Are we to expect seeing Frankie Fielding in an England jersey some time soon ?Everybody thought Andy Cole was a waste of money for Bristol but he was magnificent for them and then Newcastle and Man U .Its a democracy and if a club wants a player bad enough they have to pay the going price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curtains Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 That 9 million for Gray is stupid and in no world is it a bargain This is how I see it Derby don't get promoted which is highly likely .9 million is peanuts to promotion cash. I honestly can't see Derby going up with the present team and squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do tend to agree with the OP if we get promoted then 9 million is a steal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly can't see Derby going up with the present team and squad. Say I agree, 9 million is worth it if we get promoted, instead of Andre Gray, let's get Ibrahimovic 3 mil fee, 1 yr contract on 120000 a week.In fact that would be cheaper than Gray,once you'd factored in Grays wages, so why not do that?

Pearl Ram Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Aw come on mate, we're only three games in, been hammered by injuries already, keep the faith, we'll be alright, ok, I don't think we'll run away with the league but give them a chance to see if they can get into the groove.

I don't want to dis Andre Gray as I think he's a good striker .Ultimately it's down to Clement and if he thinks the present strikers will score enough goals.

Every time money is mentioned on here the fans say he ain't worth it whatever player it is and start comparing prices and who's worth this and that. Thats no way to run a football club and Clement needs to be allowed to strengthen the squad if he needs too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying he's not, but if you think a £9 million player would guarantee promotion, there are far better ways to spend it than him, based on the twice I've seen him with my own eyes. Money is no guarantee of success, we've seen that here before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 But money is an obsession with some fans on here. I see your argument, it's not our cash after all, but no way, no way at all is he worth £9 million.You seem to be saying because Bristol bid that, that's what he's worth.I'm saying if we spend that, there are far far better players than him for that amount, all of which would suit the way we play far better.

Day Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Just been reading Brentford fans views, the Besotted blog has called the fee "staggering" and a "kings ransom of a transfer fee", on twitter Brentford fans are saying sell sell sell at that price and Bristol City fans are saying they are paying way over the odds. One Brentford fan even says £3m max is his value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Curtains you're weird. What the hell has Andy Cole got to do with Bristol City trying to buy Gray?The amount is ludicrous. He was barely heard of 12 months ago and now after scoring some 18 goals in the Championship he's now worth 9million. If there is one thing that's in Bristol City's favour, today's market suggests that if they splash out a stupid amount in him, they can always recoup their money because someone just as stupid will pay that sort of rate.Blackburn potentially making a profit on Jordan Rhodes proves that.But still, Bristol City were in League One last season and they certainly don't come across as the sort of team which you'd want to play for. Under Steve Cotterril they're hardly a fluent attacking team or tipped to go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
