Yes, im glad he stayed at Newcastle if we didn't get him..
I've heard they signed Andy Carroll, so he won't get much game time.
They might? Big lump little fox?

According to the Newcastle Chronicle Albion has agreed a season loan with a fee of £5m, with an option to buy if promoted valued at £15m. It was Gayle who turned the move down they say. So much for how he loved Albion.

It’s a job to these blokes, with a relatively short lifespan, so they will almost always do what is right for them, which is of course as it should be.

Looks like he did turn down as loan move


No issue with that, he wanted a permanent move and we weren't foolish enough to offer it. He's of absolutely no use to us aged 30 and in the Premier League (ie next season)  8)

He'll probably go out on loan somewhere in Jan just to get the splinters out of his backside.  Did us fair though, can't complain, it wasn't really his fault we couldn't keep a clean sheet last time.

If this is reliable I don't think Albion fans can complain about the effort the club put into trying to get him back to the club. Some might argue they went too far.

I think most fans would have expected on the back of his performances last season, that we went back in for him a second time. It certainly looks like Dowling and Co. gave it a good go. I can also see why Gayle would prefer a permanent deal which we weren't able to offer. But now its done, I wonder what he will think if it means sitting on the bench at Newcastle with little or no game time. Maybe by January, he will be seeing things a little differently.

Exclusive: Dwight Gayle signals desire to fight for #nufc after TWO Championship moves break down.

#wba had agreed season-long loan with £15m permanent deal - but Gayle turned it down. Stoke also made bid. Details: https://t.co/SHXNlW9D0d  Well you can't say we didn't try .So he would rather keep the bench warm Oh well  onwards and upwards .Let's get behind the lads of 2019 COYB

Dodged a bullet their methinks! Looks like more goal scoring options in the side now.Which to my mind is better than relying on one ageing striker. Loved him when here but looking forward to next season.

We are now a very different side to the one he played in last season....

I think he may have loved his time here...  rather than loved the club ;)

He had a permanent deal on the table but stoke couldn’t afford his wages , or Gayle wouldn’t drop his wage demands. So he didn’t want a permanent move that bad mate

"I've heard they signed Andy Carroll, so he won't get much game time."

Sorry, must differ there. With Carroll's injury record I reckon Gayle will be playing most matches.

At £15 million quid, i'm glad he turned us down. It's way, way too much money for a player who has a limited shelf life now and who has never adapted to the top flight.

Great championship player but probably wouldn't have suited us this season anyway.

As for the Blues interest, how have they gone from money troubles to this all of a sudden?

Dwight was great for us last season, but he was never our player and not an Albion fan. You can't blame a bloke for wanting to make the most of the years he has left if it be in the top flight.
Let's thank Dwight for his input last year, he seems a nice guy, but let's move on and support the team we have now.

pity this deal didn't come off as I think with the way our midfield is set up now we could have created many more chances than he had last season.
Last season the midfield were too slow for the forward line, could be the other way round this season
