15 million for a 30 yr old striker dwight Gayle ? No way. Loan just to get us challenging for promotion. There's a reason why Newcastle aren't playing him. He's not good enough at that level that's why he's not getting game time at the moment.

Them geordies sure like a laugh don't they at best 6 million for me.

Toon are just chancing their arm, knowing that a) they desperately need to recoup some of the £80m they spunked on inept forwards in the summer and b) several Championship sides will be desperate for a player like Gayle to give them a promotion push in the second half of the season.
He's never been worth £15m.

How old was Grabban when he joined us and we paid £6m. Many of us were quick to write off Watson under AK, Sabri came in and Watson transformed into a totally different player. Who is to say Gayle can not do well in the Premier league under the right manager / head coach.

We won't spend that sort of money, I hope we have learned from inflated transfer fee's, don't forget we're still paying for that mistake which for the next 3 and half years will cost us around £75,000 per week plus wages for Carvalho, I think we are a lot more astute in our transfer dealings now, with Sow Samba Silva Riberio Amiobi all of which have been good signings, I trust the powers that be to do the right thing.

Skebyred we recouped 8 million at the end of the window for appiah the biggest waste is pantillimon and his wages for doing nothing along with clough and Jacob.
Carvalho isn't a waste he's still young and would still command a fee.

It’s strange people on here fawn over carvallho at 13.2mill who to put it mildly is hit and miss, yet mention 15 mill for a bloke who guarantees goals at this level and might just get you out the league and they do their nut, I personally can’t stand Gayle he’s a serial cheat but just found the comparison interesting,

Bruce needs to sell Gayle to upgrade his squad in Jan so forget a loan. As there will be 4/ 5 suitors from our league you cannot argue with the asking price?
Whether Forest want to pay it is another matter!
We have a good recruitment team so I'm backing them to find a gem that gives us a sell on value or pinch the Arsenal lad on loan at Leeds?

The Arsenal lad on loan at Leeds, is that who you once said his type of player does not get you promoted Red
