Christ, no

If true I''m speechless. [:S]

No thanks. Would rather have kept RVW. And that''s not a good thing.

[norfolkbroadslim 225]

RVW, Hoops & Turncoat out. Mbokani & Gayle in?

[DDD In The Fine City 1]

Prem record 1 in 3 or something? Yeah rubbish

[city-till-i-die 7]

Could be the end for baby Grabban then.

I would rather Gayle than Grabban Ricardo surely ??

[Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 4,624]

He''s a decent player, and I just had a feeling all along we''d sign him.

But £8m? I guess this just goes to show that deadline day is always a sellers'' market and prices go through the roof.

[Branston Pickle 4,150]

IMO he''s a decent player - I know several Palace fans and they rate him but reckon he doesn''t suit their system. I can''t understand why people on here don''t like him, unless it is just the usual ''he''s rubbish'' stuff that we always get - and got when we signed Holt and Jerome.

Expensive but thats the market this year. Gayle is a decent option for our squad. Quick and can score goals. Rather have him than grabban anyday.

£8m for Gayle but also £7-8 for Naismith rejected on Sky.

I think some of you just have "he''s rubbish" in your paste buffer and just ctrl+v regardless

We could sign an trans-dimensional alien with 26 pairs of legs and you''d say he was awful.

Not 2 games to rub together between any of you.

[unique 466]

He would add something different to what we already have. I would back him to find the net more frequently than Grabban.

Probably paying £1m or so over the top, but then at this late hour we''re gradually being backed into a corner.

Understand Dwight Gayle has been offered a four-year contract by #NCFC with talks on-going with #CPFC over fee to take him to Carrow Road...

[norfolkngood 1,174]

tony cascarino was on sky sports panel earlier said he is worth 3 to 4 million !

[quote user="norfolkngood"]tony cascarino was on sky sports panel earlier said he is worth 3 to 4 million ![/quote]Cascarino is spot on.Palace will be laughing their balls off if its anywhere near £8 million.

[Fuzzar 1,861]

£5m upwards for Grabban and £8m for Gayle is good business. He''s a lot better than many on here give him credit for. Would be happy with this.

[Tim Dawson 0]

Fair point Ricardo i do agree :)

[Branston Pickle 4,150]

Cascarino is a font of all knowledge, is he? Gayle is a far better player than Murray, who went for £4-5m so where does that leave you?

[Cantiaci Canary 610]

In this market (think Wickham, Murray, Austin, Afobe ...) he''s not worth short of £8m in my eyes. Hope this happens.

BREAKING NEWS 1700 SSN

Sky sources understand Norwich have offered Crystal Palace forward Dwight Gayle a four-year deal at the club.

The clubs are currently discussing a fee for the 24-year-old.

That''s the most ridiculous post ever. RVW is terrible. Gayle has played in the prem and has scored goals.

[ricardo 8,034]

[quote user="Branston Pickle"]Cascarino is a font of all knowledge, is he? Gayle is a far better player than Murray, who went for £4-5m so where does that leave you?[/quote]£4 million lighter in the wallet.

Its a downgrade on Hooper , Gayle is no Premier League player Palace just want to recoup the ludicrous fee they paid Peterborough for him . Wouldnt want him on a free but £8 million lol  the people running City really are clueless .

[mrs miggins 0]

Not a bad player to have, but if it means Hoopers off, then no deal.

Just hope we''re getting a CB in

[hogesar 10,767]

Genuine pacey striker who doesn''t have a bad record in the Prem all things considered.

A step above Grabban, Hooper, Rvw, Lafferty so a worthwhile signing. £8 million probably about right in the current window.

Also, just because palace are getting rid doesn''t mean he''s no good for us. Don''t think we''re in the same mini-league as them this year.

bbc announced 5 minutes ago gayle has said hes not going anywhere

Please let this be wrong.

This would be an horrendous waste of money. He is so average, I''d rather Cody McDonald back.
