Did Gunn really say this?

from the following pinkun article

User Posted Link

"He said: "I've got meetings with other players as well because until I'm told otherwise, I'm managing the football club in the way I see fit.
"Sammy Clingan, Darel Russell, Gary Doherty, people like that - it will be a big ask, a big test for them to play League One football"

Sammy I can understand, but to somehow class Doc and Russell as being too good for LG1 is beyond a joke.
It calls into question his footballing judgment IMHO.
Those two players are below average/mediocre players in the champs at best.
To say that its a "big ask" for them to play LG1 is laughable.
Doc tested the free agent market before and got no offers better than ours.
What does that tell you?
