Best thing *apart from* the emergence of Weaver. Jokes aside, nice post

This is the sort of international break content I pay my subscription for (I don't pay a subscription)

Wonder how the players who chose to stay and withdraw notice feel. Did they know next to no signings would be made and they'd be whipping boys for the year. Suspect they knew they'd likely be relegated but be part of a squad this thin?

Heard Barry models his Barnet on his grandad in his memory

Vultures. Our only hope is like Bannan, lowe and others staying for the greater good means this lad doesn't go dummy out to force a move. First choice at a championship club at his age is a great position so if we can, sort his wage to shut any potential agent noise up and bed him in. His brother being in the crowd shows that he's not going to be rushing to leave. The only thing that could impact this negatively for us is once again....the owner

Same logic. We'll be close to sale in October. Contracts drawn up, pens ready. We get our first win of the season. He doubles the price. They walk away. Go bust next summer instead of taking reasonable money. Curse that Leighton Palmer.

The wage George wanted was excessive, but in hindsight should have been accepted. Not long after he was frozen out we had a striker injury crisis. He'd have played loads and then when we went into League One. Both parties should regret how this went as I'm sure the Hirst family would rather have a son with 150-200 appearances for Wednesday. Of course they'll not care as much as we do because he's doing alright for himself without us.

This feels like a very good window into a personality that would rather lose something for nowt than feeling someone got one over on them/a bargain

Agree. Seemed more that he felt he would lose some self respect by jumping off a sinking ship whilst leaving the staff behind.

He waited as long as he felt he could to either see a takeover was happening or Chansiri could sort the mess out. If he leaves I interpret it as neither is happening, so we should be very worried if it does. Hopes that Röhl came back because a takeover was due were seemingly wrong and it was purely contractual politics. Bannan leaving tells me nothing is changing fast. He won't take £7k and as his contract is up, he can't wait for October for embargoes to clear or an eventual takeover. We're dooooooomed.

Whilst nothing new, this is at least going out with Martyn Ziegler's name on it. Chief Sports Correspondent so it is getting senior attention at broadsheets

Thanks for this. Needed a laugh and this had me howling

If the rumours of Chansiri owing a lot of people are true, this at least stops him using TV money to clear non footballing debts to save his bacon. Which hopefully means those people force him to sell or similar. It does feel like a lot of the transfer money received has not gone where it should

Cook pass Bhanbiri

As in all of us let it sink in that we are far behind the likes of Derby County and that should embarrass us all chippy

Problem is Derby have a solid stadium and regularly produce good youth players. We are getting a bit better with the latter but are training and academy facilities are behind the likes of Derby County (let that sink in)

This sentiment is a lot about the last few years for me. And I do blame chansiri for almost all of it. The comeback against Peterborough, last minute windass winner, staying up after being doomed, keeping one of the best young managers in Europe. What was the point of it all if we are going back to league one without a pot to wee in? The momentum lost falling out with Moore. Not backing Röhl. Being a spoilt brat. Imagine a club capable of capitalising on what we have experienced and got. He talks of being a businessman. He's an embarrassment to entrepreneurship and his family

All makes me think back to Will Vaulks comment about the chairman.

I bet as part of making this mutual, they signed NDAs which is a real shame as Josh would have no issues spilling the beans otherwise once out I bet. Someone who gets out and has no recourse really needs to try and tell us what is going on

He's been saying his goodbyes locally but couldn't possibly reveal my source or what swimming lessons his kids will no longer attend as that would be saying way too much

Can only assume with Josh's comment he's retired so best of luck to him. I suspect if Danny and team had stayed he would have too but hey ho here we are.

It's an intelligence test because any of them with half a brain would have

As many have said, Windass wanted out so it's not a big shock for those of us who follow Wednesday. BUT, this will make headlines if it happens. It's unusual. A well known players ripping up his contract. It's good news that this could get publicity of our plight and put more pressure on. Didn't want to lose Josh in January as his goals and contributions are hard to replace for cheap in January. In normal circumstances, you can do that during a summer. Who and how can we replace these players with what is going on? It feels a bit like the first season after prem relegation when we were throwing all sorts of kids into the line up from the second game
