  1. Cakeball crumbling sums up the Cancersiri reign, please just sell up and go or please EFL disqualify and ban him, so we can be a club again. This dictatorship is bonkers and the most shambolic and ludicrous ownership that I've ever known in the game. The man is a complete and utter buffoon with no business sense and no clue at all about football or how to run a club after 10 years, he's incapable to learn or do things honourably or astutely, which makes 10 years feel more like a lifetime of shambolic nightmares after shambolic nightmare. For the love of god just go and take your golden elephants; your cake balls and Paxo, etc, with you and let someone with some proper business sense and money to take over and run the club like how a club should at the least be ran. Before the club dies! All us fans want to do is follow and support our club, wear our teams shirt with pride, eat pies and drink beers and enjoy the football with fellow fans, family or mates, with our hard earned money during trying times and ever rising cost of living, sport; like the arts and other passions should be enjoyable distractions and shouldn't be a living nightmare. Football is nothing without fans, we're not treated like fans, we're treated like milked customers with little or no respect at all. For someone who talks about respect, honour, and family, Mr Chansiri you have brought shame upon our historic famous old club, you've brought shame upon your family name and our unique famous club name. Do the honourable thing, accept an offer and let someone else run the club how it should be. We just want to go to Hillsborough or away games and cheer on our team, talk about the football and forget all the troubles in our own lives and in the world, and simply enjoy football again. Something that we just can't do whilst your name is plastered all over our famous old stadium and on our clubs shirts, we're constantly reminded of all the shambolic mistakes made by Chansiri and Paxo, etc. Just sell up and go home, and do some other business that has nothing to do with football, has your ineptitude and childish stubbornness has no place in football.
  2. It is shocking and ludicrous, that it's been allowed to carry on, he's clearly not fit and proper and it sounds like a complete guide on how not to run a club or a business and how not to run a club or business into the ground conceived by a gambling addict with little or no grasp of business, who's only getting more and more in debt by the day, week or month... Please, just get out of our club and sell up before it dies
  3. From my understanding from going through whistleblowing and a tribunal case with an Asian company, of which the owners have multiple loans and remortgages, it's a part of business to have loans and other profitable means, as long as the business as profit it still can operate despite the multiple loans and the interest, say owed to the bank or whoever they loaned the money from but in business those loans inevitably have to be paid back or other loans and remortgages are taken out, until the bank or whoever they loaned the money from, says enough is enough. The only other way out in business and from my understanding of the company involved in my case, is that their only options to continue as a company is to take out more loans; remortgage, find other ways or means of investment or profitable streams, file for bankruptcy, be shut down or to sell the company or for the bank or whoever they loaned from to take it from them, when for instance HMRC are on their case. In business companies go out of business, rename the company or they simply start again. I believe if DC is skint and owes money, with the EFL and HMRC on his case, the only way for him to save face so to speak, would be to find us a buyer, has mentioned by DB Sports, I believe the debt and embargo or sanctions wouldn't carry on over to the new owners. I may be wrong but that's my understanding.
  4. That guy has been momentously prematurely celebrating us getting taken over and foreseen our blossoming into an world powerhouse. Equally impressive with those mutant-like fingers and after going blind... However, he also looks like he's just realising he's an Wednesday fan and the Wednesday way will prevail, either that and/or he's permanently stuck in the semi process of waking up from his dream and at the same time permanently stuck in an nightmare, which again, sounds like the life of an Wednesday fan
  5. Hard to say, way to early too predict but my guess is that it will potentially be stronger, more competitive and more than likely tougher for us. The teams coming down all have question marks or issues, that will no doubt be remedied with the parachute payments and player sales. Then you've got the likes of whoever fails in the play offs, along with a few teams that weren't far off it, plus the two promoted sides will be competitive. It already seems daunting to be honest but you never know, football can be a funny game, and yet equally frustrating and unpredictable. Aside from the parachute payments, the football league seems a world away from the top flight borefest but at the same time it's deflating that we seem, such a long way away from the top sides at this level, on and off the pitch. And even more depressingly we'll increasingly find it tougher to compete and survive at this level whilst Chansiri's at the helm. Unless we get taken over, I can't realistically not see us not being in anything but an relegation dogfight and in an battle to stay up.
  6. Waddle; Spiksley, Robinson, Finney, Rimmer, Dobson, Curran, Henderson
  7. I'd like us to go for Kone if we can, think he would be ideal for us, along with Dennis and Armstrong
  8. Surprised he's not appreciated more. I thought last season, he suited Danny Röhl's style, same could be said of the likes of Marvin Johnson and Liam Palmer too. Those types of players over a long season, will prove invaluable when the games mount up and come thick and fast. Players that can fill in, in different roles, and seem tireless, will spur on the rest of the team and squad, during all the up's and down's and the rollercoaster ride of the Football League.
  9. Beadle; Valentin, Iorfa, Bernard, M Lowe; Ingelsson, Bannan; Musaba, Windass, Kobacki; J Lowe
  10. and Dembele
  11. Could get better value elsewhere. Don't forget we also still need another centre back or two, plus a couple of midfielders and another attacker as well as someone to lead the line upfront. If we have anywhere near the amount they want, we'd be better off and smarter to use that money instead on a few players instead of on one player. Danny Röhl made Ugbo and Poveda better than what they were, extending Danny's contract was the best business we've done this summer, we can find someone else instead of Ugbo and Poveda.
  12. We've got Danny Röhl, to me it's not make or break whether we got all the loan players back. Their stock has risen because of Danny Röhl and yet we needed to strengthen a lot of areas of the team and squad. I don't think we have to get Ugbo back. Before us he didn't set the league alight at Cardiff and his goals dried up near the end of the season. I believe the money they want, could be better spent on 2, 3 or 4 players or some quality loanees. We've also been linked with Sory Kaba. We don't have to break the bank just for one player, when we still need a few more players in various positions.
  13. Time to move on from Ugbo just like Poveda, it's unfortunate because they both did well but there's no point waiting around for a greedy club or agents or players to lower their demands. We've seen the positive signs of getting most of the players we need in early so that they can have a pre-season. Personally I would use that money if we have it on a few players, especially considering we still need a couple of attackers, an midfielder or two and a centre back or two. I'd go for someone like Sory Kaba and Karamoko Dembele, plus a couple of loanees, and strengthen various areas of the team instead.
  14. He wasn't that impressive in recent lower league loan spells. Don't think he would be that good a signing to be honest, if he can't pull up any trees in the lower leagues, he probably wouldn't cut it in the Championship.
  15. A steady signing, the type of signing I'd have somewhat expected if Darren Moore had stayed. Could prove to be a smart signing. We need to start getting some points on the board and players that know the League and can perform in it, could hopefully get us going. I think it's one of our better signings so far, if it is confirmed.
  16. When I was 8, I was only just getting into football, after fleeting memories of Euro 88 and a couple of the Cup Finals. I played football in school and finally supported a team, after seeing Hirst and Atkinson running rings around the great Liverpool side of that era on the TV highlights whilst sat with my dad and grandad both Liverpool fans, I chose Wednesday and stuck with them ever since. Growing up in South Wales, among other kids that followed the likes of Liverpool, Man United and Arsenal, following Wednesday seemed different and only ever briefly knew two other kids throughout my school years that followed Wednesday too. The first season I followed Wednesday we got relegated but then the next few seasons was the most memorable and best football I've ever seen us play in my lifetime, little did I know at that time, that that was the best it would ever get during my lifetime but in recent years I've been able to travel up to see Wednesday, after only previously seeing us at the Millennium Stadium and Wembley. Last season was memorable, I watched us a dozen times at Hillsborough and at Wembley and even despite the terrible start to this season I still enjoy the atmosphere and being with other fans on a matchday, regardless of the result, as well as travelling with and talking to fans of other teams during my travels. Despite the many years of disappointments and mediocrity I'm glad I chose Wednesday my first love and will keep following Wednesday till the day I die. In the hope of one day seeing us back in the top flight again, if we ever do before my time is up, most of all for our younger fans that have never seen us in the top flight during their young lives.
  17. Personally think we're a few players short. I'm hoping that we bring in 3 or 4 more after M. Diaby, still lack some pace, dynamism and goal threat out wide and upfront. Early days yet, doubt we'll see the best of us until at least half a dozen games or more, and more quality and depth will help for what looks like being an highly competitive and strong division.
  18. Way too early to say. Southampton are the strongest or one of the strongest teams it seems. I think we'll get better in time but we need more players that suit Xisco's style. I don't think we saw enough of what we're trying to do under Xisco against Southampton, we'll have more of an idea in around 12 games or so. Hopefully there'll be at least three worser teams than us, haven't been that impressed much except for at times against Luton and the second half against Southampton, I'm hoping and think we'll gradually improve once we've brought more players in and players have bedded in and are more used to Xisco's way of playing and the League.
  19. Good luck to Delgado, never seen him play, however he seems to have the attributes we lack and Xisco requires to effectively implement his style, plus he's got around a dozen appearances for Chile. So hopefully he'll turn out to be an smart signing. Let's hope they're like buses now. Miss Juan then you don't see any for ages, then eventually Juan comes along and then they all seemingly come along more or less at once....
  20. Sadly DC's doing a very good job at doing precisely that
  21. Still have to see what players we bring in, how they adapt to the Championship and Xisco's style and the EFL is full of surprises and unpredictability. It's far from ideal the managerial change and the slow recruitment but who knows, didn't expect some of the relegated top flight clubs to struggle last season. It does however look like being a very tough and competitive League this season, it's not looking good at present but hopefully we'll be one of the surprise packages. Expectancy seems more realistic after losing all our momentum of last season and the remarkable play offs, personally I'd be happy with just staying up and building from there but you never know with football.
  22. Personally hope we can sign someone like Storey or McGuinness but we might have to wheel and deal or something or we might lack the funds. Think with Heneghan he's just training with us to get him fit enough to find another club but he may stay with us only if he impresses or we fail to bring in others. I'm hoping we will bring in players that will strengthen us rather than just adding numbers to fill up the squad.
