Can I still file for adoption at 33?

My dad bought me a bike how come john west goes out and spends 37.5m on a sleeping giant?

How old is his son (genuine question)?

Take the point Des.
From todays photos he looks about 11-13ish?
Hope he wants the Premier League Title for his 18th and his Dad gets it for him eh??

Here's hoping that's the case. I'm off to the shops now to go buy some tuna now just to make sure they have enough money to buy some good players :-)

Very impressed with the new owners plans from today's press conference,, and thank you milan for keeping your promise to use loyal fans. so we are debt free only good things can happen from know on,, and did you notice tuf logo on the back of the conference board that's the new sponsor sorted for next season,,, make you wounder tho if the family business is part of the consortium. wawaw

TYM - Just a shame you had to end your very positive post like you did - with a hint of the usual !
What "consortium" ??
Yours is the first time consortium has been mentioned?
He has said, and it has been widely reported that " Mr Chansiri has paid around £37.5m of his own personal money for the Owls."
Why look for a conspiracy ? - and what difference would it make even if it was family money anyway?
We now have the almost perfect new owner, IMO.
A very wealthy, intelligent, family oriented businessman who has bought the club for his son !!
So he's not going to let HIM or US down in a hurry - I'm guessing!
Lets all please be positive and supportive about Mr Chansiris plans for our club, at least until something terrible happens to give us genuine cause to "have a snipe"!

Howler you are the most annoying person on this page I was led to be leave that there was secret backers with him that's what the papers was saying a consortium and milan weeks ago said the same thing know why don't you be a little more positive instead of jumping down people's throats yet again

02 Mar 2015 18:44:05
Thank you milan completely agree howler is always pulling people down anybody would think he own wednesday the way he carrys on saying that it wouldn't surprise me if he is a blade.

Course I'm a blade ??? How astute !!
Thanks for yet another intelligent contribution! - well thought out ??
Obvious really because all blades defend our club don't they when posters with nothing constructive to say about our club continuously trot out the same old - Mays useless - Keanes rubbish - sack Gray - appoint Olly - get Warburton - RUBBISH! - and you accuse me !!!
If you lot can't find something genuinely positive to say about the situation we are in now compared to where we've been for the past 20odd years we don't need to hear it tbh!
Happy to listen to anybodies opinions but slagging off just for the sake of it, is too much for me and a lot more on here, if you bother to read anything at all?

Howler if your not a blade, can you please consider being one as your so negative about everything/everyone. You must be a right hoot to be around with!!! Your like the bloke who is on 'One foot in a grave' but on acid and more miserable. Do you need a hug or something?

Howler, it also says consortium on his wpedia page as well.

Hi Wed and proud, thanks but I'm good for hugs ta.
I've got loadsa posts on both pages and I honestly think you will struggle to find even one single negative post from me?
I am however very negative I admit towards the minority of our so called fans who relentlessly criticise our club, manager, players, unfairly. Constructive criticism can be helpful and interesting to read, it's good to get another point of view. But not sniping and slagging ?
Thanks for your concern about my welfare but I can cope fine ta.

Hi TYM, there are other references to consortium also.
But at the press conference yesterday Mr Chansiri wanted to make it clear that he has bought the club, cleared the debts and calls on Hillsborough Stadium with around £37.5m of his own money.
There is only his own team involved, some of whom will be based in Sheffield to work with Paul Aldridge who is staying on for the foreseeable.
I thought he did a good job of clearing that story up?
He also said that it was his young son that persuaded him to buy the club!
Gives some insight in to how wealthy he is perhaps if he can spend £40m on a present for his little lad? He's got two more kids as well, wonder what they'lol get?

Not having a go but you obviously don't know what Wpedia is ? You can't quote Wpedia as factual for anything, its populated by the man in the street! Then corrected by another man in the street. That's how it works.
You can put that on his page - try it if you haven't already.

Hi TYM, it also says consortium on the Sky sports page which is "normally" a much more credible source than Wpedia, but even journos sometimes get it wrong don't they?
However as I pointed out before, Mr Chansiri himself corrected the record at the press conference yesterday.

He made it clear that he had bought the club, and cleared off all debts and calls on Hillsborough stadium with around £37.5m of his own personal money.

No one else involved other than his team, some of whom will be based in Sheffield to work with Paul Aldridge who Is staying on for time being.
As far as I am concerned you can't get any closer to the truth than that can you.

Apologies, I thought I'd accidentally deleted the first reply to TYM so I did it again.
As it turned out it had sent not deleted, hence two posts which say pretty much the same thing - sorry once again.

{Ed001's Note - I did wonder if I had read it twice, I thought I had just forgotten to choose the checkbox to put it on the page!}

But the point is it does say consortium doesn't it so you bit thank you milan head off for nothing. true fan that howler

I will briefly answer that for you Real.
I reacted to what TYM said "after" the Press Conference which he himself had listened to !
Regardless of the earlier stories that had been circulating in the press (& that fountain of all reliable info, Wpedia !) - why persist with that old story "after" Mr Chansiri himself has specifically made a very clear statement to put the facts to the fans in order to set the record straight?
Hope that helps.

As I understand matters, we now have a new stand alone owner, this is not a consortium, Mr Chansiri has made a statement of fact and that he has bought the club, independent of any family involvement, his businesses include real estate and others.
The consortium theory was propagated initially by the media and perpetuated by fans, however in the interest of clarity Mr Chansiri is the sole owner of SWFC.

And now it's over to Tanya for the weather.

Nice one britony . WAWAW
