Just read on BT Sports that West Ham have taken Roger Johnson because Wednesday chose not to extend his loan to the end of the season. I hope this is not true!
Sleaford Owl

We definitely need to sign a replacement before Saturday

It's true gone to west ham on loan

Of course its true. once again a half decent player leaves when we had a chance to sign him. holloways turned up at millwall. you cannot tell me if we went for him he would have chosen millwall over us. we are now a joke. cheers milan and league 1 here we come. By the way zayattes is one of the worst players in owls history

Don't be daft, we wanted him to stay, however west ham are going to give a better financial package for his service which we can not compete with.

None of the names banded around for the Wednesday job have been right in my view. Pearce, Di Canio, Holloway, etc etc. It was probably just Wednesday leaking high profile names to keep our hopes up and to make us believe that these managers are within our reach. When any other manager is linked to a club he always gets asked if he's interested in the job, how come none of the above names were ever asked publicly if they wanted the Wednesday managers job or have at least been approached about it? If thing are as bad financially as we suspect they are how on earth could we afford any of the names touted around to be our next manager? We can't it's as simple as that. It's either Milan hoping that suddenly a buyout will miraculously happen and the new owners will bring in there own manager or we are keeping Stewart Gray or someone of less stature on the cheap. At the moment we've got no guidance, no manager, an owner that wants out and a team staring relegation in the face. Not to mention a team of below average players and loanees. Things are looking very bleak right now. I can't actually think of one positive thing to say about us at the moment other than we are still in the FA cup thanks to managing to get a draw at a none league side. How positive does that sound?

Yes it's a blow losing Rodger Johnson but we have to move on. I'd put Reda at CB with Loovens and Mattock at LB. Mattock is a better LB anyway and after all when we signed Reda he was signed as a CB so can play there it was only Megson that moved him out to LB.

Megson moved him to LB because that's his best position he was a liability at CB giving penalties away.
At LB can use his power down the flanks and his rash tackles just bring free kicks and yellow cards, be a mistake to put Reda back there.
Better to use Buxton at CB might even be an improvement to have a CB with quick feet for a change.

Holloway of to millwall roger Johnson gone to west ham conner wickham going to forest. Still no manager in place mm ether appoint Gray or get somebody of this 5 man short list that was a load of rubbish. I've said it for ages mm your a lyer and you haven't got us brill fans in your heart you only care about you. get the club sold or get your hands in your pocket.

Well said, sick of hearing rubbish, ince this funds for new players that, be very surprised if he buys anyone this January.

Got to agree with Real owl, we are a joke, mm just a con man, the last straw will be when he comes back and makes Gray manager one word RELEGATION

It's certainly looking like it will be touch and go whether we stay up now if the main goalscorer goes and Johnson. Agree it doesn't look as though any money will be spent.

The Daily Telegraphaph has said the the money grabbing folk from Macc want an explanation why we have made our tickets £10 they want them increasing

But in the program for the match it said what the prices would be, should there be a replay
