StudentOwl Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 1 minute ago, BIG D said: Not worth it for us to sell him. Would make no sense whatsoever I dunno, there are scenarios where it does. E.g., the next Scott Twine becomes available on a free, then Gregory's salary can be used to get that player to us, and then the fee for Gregory gets reinvested in a midfield replacement for Luongo. Don't get me wrong, I would be pretty disheartened if we sold Gregory, but there are ways we can make pretty much any possible transfer out work for us... except maybe a Bannan transfer. Do I trust us to make that sort of savvy move if our hand was forced? No, probably not... but yeah. I'd like to think/hope we can maneuver a little in the market if the opportunity presents itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basement Jack Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 It’s always a good thing when clubs want your players The time to worry is when clubs are not interested in them 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Gregory will fire us to promotion next season 4 2 Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIGHERSTATE Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Chansiri answers the phone. 'How much for Lee Gregory?' '5 million' 'For a 33 year old in in League one?' 'ok 8 million' Phone goes silent. Chansiri negotiations course level 1. now available. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyTrev Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 If there’s one thing Chansiri has shown during his time here it’s that he only sells players he wants to sell, even if that means them running their contract down and going on a free. He’ll only leave if we want him to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HootHoot Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 If we can get a decent sum for a 33 year old I'm all for it. Moore found a decent striker before so I've no doubt that if we were to sell Gregory, we'd find a suitable replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG D Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 £5M. Is he worth it? Course not but if you want to buy him that’s what it’ll take. Easy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edwinowl Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Settle down. He’s going nowhere. Clearly happy here. Fans love him. Fire us up Next year. Unless Boro offer him mega bucks he’s ours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beauchief Owl Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Derby? They're having trouble funding their wages at present. Boro' and Wigan if true, could be attractive as they offer Championship football but he's contracted to us for another year so it's up to us and whether we are willing to sell. DC will back whatever Moore wants to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Tell you what though, if there is any truth in that story, it makes your wonder what sort of market most EFL clubs will be operating in. Gregory is a very good striker, but he's 33 and scored 18 goals in League One. Are clubs like Boro (who you would think will be wanting to challenge top 6) looking at that sort of player profile for recruitment? They might as well snap up Fletcher who just got released by Stoke if they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devonstrix Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 If he does sign for Derby, best not check out the gaffers wife's insta. It'll only end in tears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BonesyOwl Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 We should definitely be looking to keep him unless silly money is being offered. We should also probably be offering a new contract to prevent end of season out of contract-itis. The same with everyone we want to keep this season that's entering their last year. Otherwise performances will drop like I think they did with luongo the last two months. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fablon Dunlop Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 As it's in the Daily Mail I'd say that's it a load of old b*****s. Quite confident he'll be with us for the coming season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteOwl91 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 33 year old under a 1 year contract... No one is prepared to pay (after all the clubs covid financial results!) what he is worth to us at this stage in his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
