And if its true if support that decision 100%, even without the benefit of hindsight.Gibbo is on record as having stopped the deal though as he refused to sanction it due to his age.
So I’m not sure why you doubt it.
completely agree if the best wilder can find is dwight F***ing gayle then thats the biggest indictment of his managerial reign to date.And if its true if support that decision 100%, even without the benefit of hindsight.
I 100% am in total agreeance with Gibbo. Dwight Gayle is on monster wages with absolutely no sell on value, whereas If Wilder actually gives Forss a chance there's every chance he could have a wonder season down the line, bag 20 and all of a sudden increase our investment by 10x's. Look at Gyorkeres. Low Risk, potentially high rewardAnd if its true if support that decision 100%, even without the benefit of hindsight.
The funny thing is Forse is a couple of years older than Muniz has played more games and has 14 international caps and Hoppe is a couple of months older than Muniz and has a few international caps. Neither Hoppe or Forss are very young kids with no experience and not ready to be given at least a chance in the 1st team. For me it seems like Wilder would rather play one up front than play Forss or Hoppe upfront to make a point that he wanted older experienced players and I wouldn't be totally against that if we where doing well but when we are struggling, then you need to use every tool at your disposal, swallow your pride and try new thing whether that means giving some younger lads some minutes on the pitch to actually judge if they can make the step up or change a formation that isn't producing the goods.I 100% am in total agreeance with Gibbo.

That isn't "Gibson is on record..." though, is it. It is according to sources. The story could easily have been floated by Gayle's agent to show Championship managers still wanted their player. A 2year deal on high wages would have likely made the deal a total non starter for us.This is from 11th July
Middlesbrough chief blocks Gayle deal after Newcastle talks - Sources
Football Insider has learned that Middlesbrough have cooled their interest in Newcastle United striker Dwight Gayle amid concerns from Steve Gibson.www.footballinsider247.com
True but I think it’s known we don’t sign players that we don’t get a return on.That isn't "Gibson is on record..." though, is it. It is according to sources.

I would guess 80% of players we signed over the last few years haven’t brought us a returnTrue but I think it’s known we don’t sign players that we don’t get a return on.
I thought that when put it up but it’s hardly a secret is it.
Now edited.
Hold on, I thought Scott was the one finding new players now?completely agree if the best wilder can find is dwight F***ing gayle then thats the biggest indictment of his managerial reign to date.
That's the point isn't it?Hold on, I thought Scott was the one finding new players now?
You think Gibson wouldn't have done something to dampen the story afterwards if it wasn't true?the daily mail article doesn't have a single quote in it. i bet the story was taken from here or twitter when those stupid posts about wilder came out the other day
I'm delighted we didn't sign Gayle.Half of this board wanted to sign Gayle as well. You could see his legs had gone 2 years ago.
