Rumoured to be signing Dwight Gayle from Palace for 6 million, I know they've got a wealthy owner, but how the heck are they getting around FFP?

    So we might as well go on a spend up and get promoted as well?

    Cotterell on the FL highlights looked and sounded totally cheesed off during his post match interview .. seems the owner has not given him the money that Cotterell thinks he needs for new players .. even so, B C has a decent team and should not be in relegation trouble

    I beg to differ. This team is turd compared to most of the rest of the championship. Cotterill shouldn't sulk because he isnt being given £30m or so to get above their station. They are already punching above their weight. Back in their box and stop trying to overspend pretending you are something you are not.

    6 mil for Gayle is ridiculous money.

    Considering Palace only paid £4.5m

    We have. Bauer, Sarr, Makienok, Kashi etc didn't come cheap. Wouldn't like us to blow £6m on Gayle on top of all that really, it's no guarantee of promotion. Look at Bristol, they'll be paying that just to try to survive

    Why do I get the impression this £6m bid is nothing to do with Cotterill

    They've clearly learned their lesson after paying big money for Sam Baldock...

    Gayle is a superb finisher. Surprised Palace are selling him to be honest. Should be very good in the championship. He can do better than Bristol City though

    according to today's paper, Palace have accepted 6 mil .. now up to Gayle to decide .. Palace have spent a lot, perhaps they are looking to recoup some and save some wages paid to a benchwarmer.

    appears Gayle has said no. also, if you wondered how City could afford the fee, they were prepared to waive the sell-on fee they would be due if Bolasie moved on from Palace.
