Gavin Whyte to Oxford - CONFIRMED
Quite a few Oxford fans on twitter tonight convinced we're loaning him to them.
Re: Gavin Whyte to Oxford - CONFIRMED
It cost us £2m to sign Gavin Whyte from Oxford and he's back playing for them a couple of years later.

That's a bargain by Cardiff City standards, when you consider some of the expensive dross we've signed over the years :hehe:
Who was that so called centre forward fella we signed from Bolton ?
Just remembered, Gary Madine :hehe:
Re: Gavin Whyte to Oxford - CONFIRMED
I can only assume he must be on a good wage and Oxford see his as a big signing. I hope Watkins isn't his replacement.

Please, please, please.. NOT Marley Watkins!
I have long followed the Bristol City forum (OTIB) and they couldn't wait to get rid of him.
Re: Gavin Whyte to Oxford - CONFIRMED
League 1 is his level. Another wasteful Warnock signing.

Sky Sports News have announced that Oldham have signed Gavin Whyte on loan from Oldham
What the....
Re: Gavin Whyte to Oxford - CONFIRMED
Just read the WOL story and there were loads of comments complaining that we were short on wingers so it was crazy to let him go. I can't remember us playing wingers with MM. If it frees us enough funds for us to loan a creative midfielder (and not sign Watkins) it makes sense for all involved really.

Some of the comments also claimed that Gavin Whyte was our best player in pre-season! Really?
Re: Gavin Whyte to Oxford - CONFIRMED
Mick McCarthy explains why Whyte was allowed to leave.
"If I've got Josh Murphy, Ryan Giles, Kieffer Moore, James Collins, Rubin Colwill, Isaak Davies, Tommo (Tomlin), Mark Harris all in those forward places, he's not going to play.”
“We have a big squad and have strength in depth, so I could not guarantee him a game.”
"So for his good he needs to go out and play and if he can go and have another good season, then maybe he can come back here and play."

Sounds quite scathing - Some of the decisions by Mick have been a bit iffy?
Re: Gavin Whyte to Oxford - CONFIRMED
Very surprising loan though - how he's not cover for full/wing back is beyond.

Hardly scathing. Just brutal honesty.
