1. I also grew up surrounded by Jamaican culture (I grew up in NW London) and it didn’t turn me into a bigot. For that matter, none of my Jamaican friends are bigots either. It’s no excuse for being a twxt – don’t pretend it is.
2. It’s great business to bring in another striker. We are certainly thin at that position over a long and packed season. Gray is probably 4th in line, right. I can’t see him displacing Charlie or Lyndon, given how they just keep scoring. He also probably has to wait in line behind Kelman seeing how high people seem to be on him (although maybe he got loaned out and I’m forgetting). Having said that, the games come thick and fast and we definitely are going to need stand-ins and injury replacements, etc.

Presumably, then, you're clued up about artists like Sizzla, Capleton, Vybz Kartel, etc. The kind of music released around the time Andre Gray was growing up. For example.
It's not even like these are underground tunes. These were, and still are, huge songs in Jamaican culture.

another in a long line of players who have an impact, sign a huge deal and then drift about, nahki wells, hugill, ravel morrison, jordan rhodes come to mind jay bothroyd too....there;s no mney in staying at a club for a career, the agent gets more every time they move = cash. footballer for hire, have bentley and boots, willtravel.
I think that is a fair point and certainly we have been guilty of exactly that problem in the past. Think we have started to go beyond that now with the Warburton, Hoos and Ferdinand now working so much more closely together. We didn't chase Wells or or Hugill at any price and have clearly walked away from a number of deals that didn't fit our current circumstances.
As it is, every year over the past 3 years, the paybill has massively reduced and the quality of the playing squad has slowly improved. The loans last year genuinely changed the trajectory of the club and fit with what Warburton wanted. Given how well that has gone so far, I think it only fair to give Grey the benefit of the doubt and recognise that it gives the hi opportunity to show what he can do in a settled structure with a coach he knows and trusts. I think he will probably also really benefit from being in a smaller, but really good squad that will genuinely will want him to do well.

Not to mention Buju Banton, no relation to Pato Banton, who is actually Irish (Pat O'Banton).
