Come on Chaddy what on earth makes you think we will reinvest that money. 

If it was to happen your looking at a loan player at best.

Its what I want to happen if we sold Gallagher which I would like to do in all honest. We need better 

[JHRover]

Why haven't we reinvested the Travis, Dack, Diaz, Ayala, O'Brien wage allocations and the Kaminski/Ash Phillips cash?

Can the person who answers that ask Chaddy how and why he thinks Gallagher money is going on multiple 'better' signings?

Also ex Brighton top target now Chelsea loanee army striker Datro Fofana (FM legend) recalled from loan in Germany.  Wonder if the Scandinavian connection, links to Brighton and desperation for a striker may connect dots 

That didn’t age so well with Fofana going to Burnley 😂

Maybe because we need a striker 🤔 

Of which Gallagher isn't one.

Mental if we've turned down actual cash for him, we ought to be snapping anyone's hand off who were willing to take his wages off the wage bill let alone pay any sort of fee for him

You know the wage budget was cut by 20% in the summer cos of Indian tax thing. 

Gallagher isn't good enough for me. A view I have held since the summer. We need better. I would go and sign WBA striker Brandon Thomas-Asante from WBA. Would fit how we play and has experience of this league already. but he would cost between 2m and 3m. Plus we need other positional signing like quick right winger or centre back

God no - haven't we suffered enough already?

[Mattyblue]

Still haven’t seen anybody explain why it’s such a great idea to sell our only senior striker when the funds won’t be spent on a replacement.

Do you think Ennis, Telalovic and Leonard are better?

Would you sell even if the money wasnt available to reinvest?

Which summer ? Personally I saw enough the first time he was here. Signing him again was a crackers move.

not sure if it's been mentioned, but it looks like trav has a new agent – who facilitated his ipswich move.

this gazza poster is getting to broken ai-chat levels of repetitive oddness now.

So if he would cost between 2 and 3 million, how do you propose to buy him, buy another player, and loan two more...with 1.5 million?

I meant if I am my choice of a striker to sign this and money was there for the transfer 

[tomphil]

So we now have the managers agent on the scene moving people out and both guys frozen out of the side.

Oh dear.

%%%

[JHRover]

SEG group by the looks of things.

Travis seems to have joined them very recently and thanked them for their help in getting the Ipswich deal done. 

JDT joined them last year. Also on the 'roster' are Kaminski and Tyler Morton.

Think they are quite a big outfit and seem to have Pep Guardiola and numerous United/City/Liverpool people.

Certainly an interesting one though......

[tomphil]

No wonder Mortons game time then when he really should have been on the bench for a period.

Alternatively as soon as the article page loads, click the x (the one which becomes the refresh button) to stop it loading further. This stops everything beyond the first paragraph from being hidden.

Exactly. 

If we signed Kieffer Moore on loan (pie in the sky in know), then I'd be happy to shift Gallagher on and tackle the issue again in the summer.

As it stands though Gallagher is probably one of our top 3 most important players. Its a bit ridiculous that it's come to that, but not sure how people can argue it.
