Gallowgate End Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Apparently we’ve told Fulham we want £20million for Gayle Are they or anyone really going to pay that? 20m :lol: I know I’d drive him there for that and let him sit on my lap the whole way.

Guest chopey Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Perfectly acceptable starting point, negotiate down to £16-£17 million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I’ll be shocked if we get £20million for him with him turning 30. Fulham will have payed us £48million for Gayle and Mitro Gayle is not "turning 30", he's 28 and 7 months. I see from your profile you are 69. If that's not a hilarious sex related joke and it's your real age I suppose you are turning 71 are you? Obsessed with keeping Gayle you’re even willing to make him younger And aye 69 can’t you tell by my wisdom? Wiki says 29 and 30 in a few months can’t say I’ve seen his exact birth certificate though. Fair enough I take it back. I'm certain his Wiki date of birth made him 28 and 7 months when I checked the other day. Maybe Wiki was edited since then? I'm not obsessed with keeping Gayle but I also am not one of those people who would sell him for £10m. If NUFC can sell Gayle for a good price and upgrade on him then I'm all for it. Ashley's NUFC track record suggests that's far from a given. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BergenMagpie Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 £20m is certainly at the top end of his market value but when you think of the prize money for promotion, £15m+ is a fair asking price for a selling club (and a reasonable gamble for the buying club) for a striker who has scored 46 goals in his last 71 Championship appearances. Exactly. Fulham sold Ross McCormack for 12m in 2016. He was then 2 weeks from turning 30 and had 38 goals from 89 championship games for them. Only fair that we start talks at 20m as Gayle is younger, has a better goal scoring record (although playing for better teams) and the market prices have been inflated Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair I’d drive him there for even £10million hoping for £15million though to boost funds for Rafa to get players that can actually move us forward into the Top 8/9.(IE Not Dwight “Championship Messi” Gayle) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure the likes of Norwich or Sheff Utd will go over £15million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
