lambert , rhodes , marshall , antonio, whittingham in,
o'grady ,jj, d.jones, batth, treacy, otsemobor out.

I have heard the same around the ground as I work there that whittingham has already agreed terms couple top champ clubs looking into Lambert and Rhodes but if hudds don't go up Rhodes to hillsborough for 2.5m with add ons

U wish

Lol, lambert? Not a prayer would be amazing but not happening

Let's make the rumours a bit more realistic gents! More likely out of contract players paying decent wages and high end loanees

Lambert as dreamed off making.it to the prem and he's done it the hard way as if he would drop back down to champ without testing himself

Lambert? correct me if im wrong but didnt he fire southhampton to the premiership? sound like the person who posted this rumour has been on the sherbert

I see no sign that we would pay anything remotely near Rhodes valuation. In any event he will probably get Premier League interest. We'll see how far Milan opens the purse strings, my guess is enough to ensure we stay up but anything more will require magic from DJ.

Is the Peter whittingham deal, a done deal that's what I keep hearing

Peter Whittingham is going to West Ham or a Premier League outfit. Chris Burke is a more realistic target due to Birmingham City's financial troubles. Plus we should still get Michail Antonio once Reading have worked out their plans.

Lambert? LOL

Lambert rumour is untrue but Lambert will not be a success at Premier level. Their manager who is extremely sharp may realise this and offload, Southampton sold what looked like key assets last year after promotion and still went up.

JJ has just signed :s haha lol

Okay people, you are all talking about whos coming in. So whos going out? Weaver, prutton,sedgewick,reynolds etc? What do your people think? And what about raiding the relegated teams like pompey and donny etc?

Agree those above are in that category. In addition O'Grady, Rob Jones, Daniel Jones and Winger Jones, O'Donnel, Jameson, Otsemabor I think will be released or allowed to leave.

I'm not in favour of raiding clubs relegated from the division we are moving into as they by and large don't make the grade (hence the relegation) but cherry picking the odd one maybe ok, I would like to see Antonio signed and maybe a couple of decent prem players on loan plus lets look at what the relegated prem teams have on offer {Ed013's Note - Portsmouth have some decent players going cheap}

Wednesday after Roger Johnson at wolves, source Daily Mail

This has been widely reported including by John Percy on twitter who says player is keen to join. Would be an excellent player for Championship.

This could mean we arnt getting Danny batth back

Yes John Percy also talking about us being interested in bringing Roger Johnston in so you never know - he us usually spot on ?

I presume it will be one or the other, quite certain Wolves will release one of them.

Wolves fan here, you can have Johnson, he's S!t. Been nothing but trouble since we bought him from Birmingham. Always Pi!ed, cant defend and disrupts the dressing room. We will be taking Danny back as he was only ever sent out on loan for experience. Now he has had that experience he will come back and will most deffinatly be a regular in the Wolves first team. Good luck to Wednesday next season and hope you finish below us!

Heard from an agent at wednesday yesterday that moses odubajio from leyton orient the 18yr old starlet is bein watched by us and several other clubs in a possible swoop. Also ranger bein palmed off by pardew as they dont see eye to eye

Ranger has court date in July. Realisticly can not see anyone buying him before this is sorted. If he gets off or just a fine, we could be interested. I suspect Newcastle will use this as opportunity to dismiss currently another 4 years of contract to go.

Wednesday could make an ambitious raid on Midlands rivals Birmingham City and Wolves. Roger Johnson is being linked in the press with being reunited with old boss Dave Jones, who also still wants to take fellow Wolves centre back Danny Batth permanetly from Wolves. Dave Jones could be set to steal another Cardiff old boy Chris Burke from cash strapped play off losers Birmingham City. Michail Antonio will be signed permanent too. Whilst Wednesday old boy Glenn Whelan could be ambitiously brought back to the club. Dundee United's Scottish U21 star Gary Mackay-Steven is also being tracked by the Owls. Striker wise DJ is weighing up offers for Paul Taylor and Matt Ritchie to offer competiton for Gary Madine and Ryan Lowe.

Again, are you being serious? why would they come to Wednesday when wolves are one of the favorites to return to PL??

Wolves are in complete disarray. They really struggled last year and teams who struggle badly in Premiership rarely go up the following season. They are bringing in a foreign manager who is bound to ring in own players so clearout likely.

Sheffield is in the north not the midlands {Ed020's Note - south yorkshire lol!!}

Teams that struggle in prem don't go back up !!!
WHUFC
Blackpool
Birmingham
Cardiff
correct me if I'm wrong but didn't 3 of the above PLAYOFF teams come down last year ??? ...

Haha what a stupid comment by a dillusioned fan MOT
