Will Grigg's on fire, signed!

[Baloo]

I could be wrong but I believe it’s only category one academies that are invited to participate.

I dunno if you’re right or wrong with that, but Wigan didn’t have a team entered.

 

[Wansbeck Viking]

Not my words,

This has been done late for the drama of the second series of STID.

 

[ChrisAshley]

I'm going to have to phone talksport to tell them it's definitely not £4m...oh wait a minute!

 

[Walter White]

If it’s 4 million, which I doubt but if it is it’s scandalous

It was £4 million. Donald had to buy a new range of sprinklers from Wigan included in the deal, just to put out the fires.

 

[Charles Eats Grass]

Not only that he has spoken to players to say he wanted to come only if Wigan allow it. But as you know literally no players, you wouldn't know that .

Your right mate I don’t

And neither do you or you’d have said something about this before now.

Let’s just be happy we look to be signing a proven goal scorer instead of instantly thinking of a way to play my cock is bigger than yours ITK wars.

Wigan have accepted a £4million bid from Sunderland for striker Will Grigg.

The Black Cats had five previous bids turned down by the Latics but returned tonight and finally met Wigan’s asking price.

Grigg has been promoted from League One on three occasions, twice with Wigan and before that with MK Dons in 2015 and Sunderland will hope he can make it number four this season.

The Northern Ireland international also scored the winner in Wigan’s famous FA Cup win over Manchester City last February.


1.5m to 4m in 10 minutes!!!

How can he be cup tied when he plays for a championship club and the efl trophy is for premiership u21s, league 1 and league 2 teams?

It’s not for premier league u21s, it’s for teams with category A academies. Hence championship clubs can compete. We even played stoke this year!

 

[Walmo]

4m for Grigg? If that’s true the piss taking party is in full swing!

 

[sedling]

FOUR MILLION ??

...say the BBC

 

[Hank Scorpio]

If it’s 4 million, which I doubt but if it is it’s scandalous

It’s 1.5m

 

[stephen cartwright]

Mods, please make every raging fanny that chucked their toys out the pram have a Veruca Salt avatar for the next week.

Understand the fee for Will Grigg is £4million and not the £1.5million being reported elsewhere. We'll see if/when the deal is done - if there's time to get it through! 10 minutes to deadline!

The bedwetters are now running for the hills

Reported 4 million. They will be back shortly.

 

[Wakey ftm in Sussex]

We could have signed f***ing messi and some on here would twist.

NO MORE 5 FOOTERS FFS

 

[jesus juice]

I doubt it’s £4 million. Maybe rising to that if we get to the premier league

FOUR MILLION ??

We don’t have that money

 

[Tomma]

Just had a look at Grigg's Wikipedia page - it was meant to be. Guess what his middle name is...
