No club should have a Gray and a Brown in the same squad, it'll only give the kit designers ideas. It's a no from me :mad:

I guess you have a point. Ulloa must be over 30, as strong and sharp in the box as Glen and Tomer, but I think that, maybe, he brought a bit more flair and imagination.

Where are folk getting the idea from that he's got a bad attitude?

He wouldn't be playing for Burnley FC if he had a bad attitude.

If you knew his upbringing and the culture he was surrounded with then you'd understand (not like) why a stupid man would tweet about burning homosexuals, that red lipstick on black women looks like jam on burnt toast and not liking 'lighty's'.

He wouldn't be my cup of tea at a social gathering, but you can't condemn a man forever because of a bit of social media stupidity and his attitude at Burnley has been bob on.

Well said that man!!
If he signed and scores us 15 goals to keep us up are you still going to moan about his past! Dyche may be a bit of a nugget but he's well respected by more people in football than us NSCers! If Gray wasn't wanted they wouldn't be offering him a new contract! If it was a choice between Gray or Wood, Gray all day long please! Pace is what we need...

This guy is all that we don't want, Happy to chuck his toys out of the pram, try and throw his weight around and with social views that belong in the 70's.
Thankfully the club look at the whole package not just ability and therefore would probably say no thanks wouldn't touch him with a shitty barge pole.

9 in 32 in the Prem in a workmanlike Burnley side. 26 years old. A 1 in 2 goalscorer for most of the last 7 years. It's not been an easy ride for him. I fancy he is a striker capable of scoring 13-14 goals in this Albion side.

We could do a lot worse.

The homophobe doesn't really fit with the albion club 'image'.

Won't happen.

So it was, your reference to Leicester being in the Premier League should have been a clue lol. Wood has been somewhat nomadic through his career to date. Has played for a fair number of clubs, many of them on loan..
Yeah, and it's the Leicester part of his career that concerns me most. He'd already proven he was a competent Championship striker when they spent reasonably big money on him, then he was deemed surplus to requirements after just 6 months in the Premier League. My worry would be that he's another one of those strikers that will always score goals in the Championship but isn't quite able to make the step up.

I'd have jumped at taking Gray for his pace - but the homophobic past just wouldn't wash down here.
