  2. Anyone know if these may reach General Sale, due 2pm tomorrow? Would consider going, as the money going to Chansiri from away sales seems to minimal
  3. One Missing Deviant Thai

  8. BBC Sport online: I'm pretty sure the Leeds fans, about 3,000 of them, may well outnumber the home support.

  11. Can he just miss the midweek cup game?
  12. Pretty well empty though considering we sold out
  13. According to OS: Supporters should note that the shirts do not have our new principal front-of-shirt sponsor, Mr Vegas’ logo but there will be an opportunity to apply the logo at a later date.
  14. Anthony Meyer v Thatcher in 1989 wasn't credible but it was the beginning of th end for her. (Google it if you don't know what the hell I'm on about)
  15. Pasted from TWS on Facebook, I accept no liability.... BREAKING: Chansiri Agrees Full Takeover Deal – £5m Fee Resolved After weeks of behind-the-scenes negotiations, Sheffield Wednesday chairman Dejphon Chansiri has now agreed terms with a US-backed consortium for a full takeover of the club. Talks had stalled two weeks ago over a £5 million transitional fee, but sources close to the deal have confirmed that the issue has now been resolved — and final paperwork is in motion. The incoming group, operating under the name Sheffield Sporting Group, is expected to take formal control subject to standard EFL approval and final due diligence. Internal transition plans are already underway. The consortium is believed to include a mix of American investment and UK football advisors, with a long-term focus on financial stability, infrastructure, and supporter engagement. Crucially, the new owners have also reached an agreement with Röhl (Report of Hillsborough Legacy) to retain their involvement under the new regime — ensuring a link between the club’s past and its future. A source close to the discussions said: “Everything is now agreed. The £5m issue has been addressed, and the deal is going through. Chansiri has honoured the terms, and the group is ready to move the club forward.” An official announcement is expected in due course.
  16. Doesn't excuse DC in the least, but my guess is we have to sell these 2 to raise some cash to keep the club running until the sale goes through. It could well be a couple of months until any sale is finalised, and we have to ensure we can stage home games during that period, even if the team we put out is poor quality.
  17. ... or volunteer to join the squad on a free trial. We'd be in no position to refuse anyone atm
  18. EFL regs say: Clubs can offer new contracts to existing players, though this will be dependent upon the circumstances of the individual Club and will be determined by the League.
  19. At the minute I think they still count as they're still under contract until 30 June
  20. the darkest hour is just before dawn
  21. Here's my list: Bannan Famewo Paterson Musaba Smith Windass P. Charles Palmer M. Lowe Bernard Iorfa Valery Otegbayo Chalobah Inglesson J. Lowe Ugbo McNeill Kobacki Gassama ...that's 20 plus any u21s who've played, maybe in a cup game. Do we must be close to or even over the limit of 23?
  22. We're allowed 23 "players of professional standing". That seems to mean anyone whose played a 1st team game, even as a sub. Do we have that many?
