I can’t remember when we have been this ‘lucky’ with a player sale. As others have said big money for a player that hasn’t been in our plans for all of last season and I’m sure he went to Forest on deadline day last minute which could be why they never negotiated a loan to buy agreement at a much lower price! 
Also not forgetting that we were able to pull more revenue in January by loosely threatening to recall him. 
it really is mad luck how much we have made from this player in the last 12 months and could even get better if he pushes on at Spurs.

Thing is, if you (we) like it or not it sounds like he would have been going for free at the end of the season anyway as not signing a deal. There’s no way he would have been a starter this season so unlikely to have signed a new contract so from that point of view we had to sell.

Oh mate I’m agreeing that we should sell instead of losing for a free. My point was that it was the right thing to do, as Fry was playing first team football for boro in the championship, 2+ years ahead of wood. 
 

That being said, I think there is a good player in there and he is only 20 after all.

Have we been linked with any rwb? I knowJones is a starter but we do need cover

I suppose Dijksteel can play there, and we've got Fisher coming back eventually.

Think with Lenihan seemingly coming in that gives us more options, it frees up Dijksteel to cover there if needed.

I'm more concerned about the left wingback spot as it stands. We're pretty unbalanced in attack due to not having someone of a similar ilk attacking wise to Jones. Personally I'd love us to be looking at players in the mould of Ryan Giles (Wolves) and Conor Grant (Plymouth) for that spot.

Edit: Forgot Fisher was still on our books! If we get any interest I could see him leaving.

I was thinking about Giles myself if wolves aren’t planning with him in their first team. Seems like a perfect fit for our style.

Gayle isn't happening and apparently Woods likes balloons too

Not saying that's why he was sold, just putting it out there.

 

Why isn’t Gayle happening? Seemed like a deal that made sense on all sides

Gyokeres and Armstrong were my first choice anyway so if that’s the plan I’m fine with it 

Think we'd be setting ourselves up for disappointment if that's the case, think we'd struggle for one let alone both. But here's hoping 🤞

Well Gayle might still happen, but we haven't even had talks with him or Newcastle yet. And we've made further progress on other targets.

If he comes in it won't be as first choice.
