Agree0 Disagree0

What is taking Jones so long to sign a couple of strikers, I do believe in having a good look around but this is the area where we have struggled season after season. I thought strikers would have been ear marked a long time ago and been in place by now for the pre season games.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Well for one we cannot sign Lita until he has been released by Swansea, if he hasn't been released we can't sign him simple. We also cannot choose when players decide to actually sign contracts for example we had a player once that took over 2 months at actually sign his contract.

All these people saying that strikers linked to us aren't good enough because of there previous goal scoring record. I bet you would have a field day with a player SWFC signed from a team in a lower division having scored 9 in 28 at his previous club and then only scored only 6 from 21 in his first season. If we had some of the fans we have now back in the eighties this player would have been slated and probably wouldn't have stayed at the club as long as he did and score as many goals. The player in question, David Hirst. I'm basically saying forget looking at previous stats and what team/league a player has played in previously. With the right coaching and support a player can go on to great things.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Well said there have been lots of times when lower league players have proved themselves in higher leagues but for some reason some of our fans don't believe it's possible for them to do it with us.

Agree0 Disagree0

Goin back a few years but when we signed Lee Chapman I said wot a waste of money. WRONG! He turned out be a fantastic signing. He would Av run thru the proverbial brick wall. The moral is let's nor judge an signings till we've seen em play a few games. mik

Agree0 Disagree0

We have always had these miserable element, pretend they go to every match and its actually once a year at most (if they get free ticket). They usually do not have two pnnies to rub together post comments about spending money as if its water and do not realise world has moved on. The internet has given them an outlet for views unfortunately rubbish they spout drives decent fans away.

Which realistic strikers would you like to see in a Wednesday shirt next season?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Will grigg Walsall cheap striker which will score goals I like him or tom pope they both score for fun and wouldn't break the bank

Agree0 Disagree0

Will Grigg left Walsall ain't he? Thought he'd gone Brentford?

Agree0 Disagree0

Griggs just moved to Brentford mate, pope's not bad tho, clayton Donaldson wouldn't be bad either.

Agree0 Disagree0

Didn't realise grigg had moved sorry will hood my hands up

Agree0 Disagree0

Pope and Donaldson, we will be having Simeon Jackson bloke back on here if we are not careful. L1 players at best possibly L2.

Agree0 Disagree0

Paddy Madden

Less than 2weeks till start of season! Still only 1 new player in,, plus helan,, shocking work buy wednesday in my opinion,, should have the players in a lot quicker, because if we start bad, what's the reasons going to be? We have new players, they need time to gel, blar blar blar, mm and dj should already no wot they want/ need n get them in,,

Believable0 Unbelievable0

It is getting very wearying now. Players nearly come and then disappear without a word of explanation. Yes, wages can be a problem, but for almost everyone else as well as us at this level. Can't just be wages.

Agree0 Disagree0

Fully agree with you, the season is about to start and we haven't got the correct balance in the team to fill some essential positions. We have moved so many people out but hardly we've got same number of players in. very very strange process by MM & DJ!!!!

Agree0 Disagree0

Players have more options than just swfc including the likes of lita

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree, can't help but think that if we don't spend on a bit of quality we are going to be struggling to get out of bottom of table again.

Agree0 Disagree0

More clubs looking to hang on to the players they have or are asking too much for them is one of the problems. If the player is free of contract then they have more choice this year as more clubs look at the free transfer market than previous years so talks take more time. I fully expect more signings to be made, just be patient. There is more than a month of the window to go, if we are in the same position with a week left then its time to panic but not now.

Agree0 Disagree0

Delighted with what we have got and happy we have not rushed in and brought crap. Sooner wait and get correct player.

Agree0 Disagree0

Yerhhhh I would of for we would of had more in quicker! Iv been looking and listening out for new player but nothing seems to be happening, don't get me wrong, maghoma n helan am happy with but there still seem a few gaps to fill, obviously strikers, maybe a centre mid, ( attacking) n cover for the centre, llera not good enuf in my opinion, just been sooooo slow,, 11 days till we start,, bit of a joke if you ask me, DJ said 5-6 new player,, we have 1/2,, 3/4 to come,, then just chuck them all in agaiin with no playing time together, or training,, like last year,, take 25matches to get goin,,

Agree0 Disagree0

We losing £5,000. 000 a year

Agree0 Disagree0

If you belive that then your silly!

Looks like the season will start with only 2 strikers
+ Lavery. I would have liked two forwards in time for season! If this happened we could still try to bring in Wickham at the end of August
and If this happened send someone out if needs be! The Wickham thing could be a possibility but it is too much of A BIG IF for me! Dicanio not keen on him but he could force himself onto contention through form or injuries etc! He could be sent on loan but they may be against Wednesday getting him so can't rely on that! By all means DJ could monitor it but not forced to happen! Looks like Antonio up front!

Straight from the horses mouth Chopra move could be on DJ really rates him. Hope like Davies he opts to sign somewhere else as his best days are well and truly behind him.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Dont want chopra, well past it and a bad influance

Agree0 Disagree0

DJs comments were hardly ringing endorsement, in fact thought he was being polite.

Agree0 Disagree0

I am not defending Chopra but if behaviour was as disruptive as suggested surely Ipswich could sack him. Be cheapest option to get rid.
