    Good player maybe, but not good enough for Ipswich who've released him perhaps partly due to his injury record

    It concerns me, rightly or wrongly, that in the season where CW wishes to take the club to the next level, one of our targets, a 30 year old seasoned player, requires a trial to prove suitability.

    As much as anything else, the message this trial sends out to me is not one of a club moving forward, but one that is surely struggling to compete, even with the bottom end Championship clubs

    Perhaps the decent signings may yet still arrive and I truly hope so, but I fear this may now not be the case

    Some bod on a Millwall forum claims we’ve signed Gregory for £1.6m - but no-one else seems to know anything about it.
    Just saying like.

    No. 548 on the list of players we've signed, gonna sign or have made a bid for. Why not just leave it and wait for who we actually do sign, if anybody.

    Read about the injury record and it was compounded by his 3 hour commute from home to Ipswich,obviously less time with the physio's.

    In the only game i saw him in last season Ipswich at home,he was very dangerous and i was glad when he was substituted.
