Who said the bothroyd rumour was rubbish, if you look back to 3 days ago, I was the first person to say Bothroyd would sign!! My brother is a football agent! Up to now he's been 100% right! Expect Dean whitehead to come when the loan window opens!!!
Believable4
Unbelievable18
Whats happening with Barkley then?
Agree10
Disagree4
If you read Everton site and a lot of the posts on here you will see that Moyes has said all along he wouldn't be allowed to leave until their transfer business was done.
Loan window reopens next week.
Agree9
Disagree1
So according to you we'll get whitehead, and /or possibly barkley on loan
Agree4
Disagree4
I said Bothroyd would sign about 3-4 weeks ago
Agree6
Disagree4
Boothroyd been talked about on here for 2
months,my brothers a newsagent read it one of his papers
Agree10
Disagree0
We had been trying for Boothroyd from day one but his wages were a stumbling block. QPR were hoping a Premier side would come and take him off their hands. Hughes made statement earlier in week which shouted come and get him so I ampresume they are subsidising his wages.
Taylor was the one Jones wanted as captain and why he waited until eve of season before naming captain. Only decide to move as not keen on things under new regime.
Agree2
Disagree0
My brothers a baker and Bothroyd came in to the shop weeks ago to buy some bread and to discuss his football future and my brother suggested a move to wednesday
Agree4
Disagree1
Who cares who said what first, what do you want a blue Peter badge?
Agree6

I am sure bothroyd rumours were doin the rounds more than three days ago..... {Ed001's Note - I have seen them since the day Dave Jones took over!}

O'grady to start today with rodri **** bothroyd
Agree2
Disagree3
Let's start playing Lee at right back and Taylor at central defence, Beevers and Buxton are a liability - I was at Palace.
Agree6
Disagree0
.............and Daniel jones why buy these new r&l backs if your not going to play them
Agree4
Disagree1
Buxton is definitely a liability, beevers is definitely not
Agree3
Disagree3
Taylor only didn't play on Sat coz we only signed him the day before. Sure he'll be in the side very soon since DJ was surprised Watford let him go and then Watford lost 5-1 without him! None of us have seen Lee yet so might as well give him a run out if DJ feels he's up for it.
Agree3
Disagree0
I heard the reason for mattock not playing against Fulham and Palace was because he was carrying an injury. I would also be looking at giving Kieran Lee a run out over Buxton for the next couple of games but i don't know what performances are like in training and its probably more out of curiousity that i want to see him as he came in with such high regard. Beevers has been excellent this season so far but I am in love with Llera, have been for some time now so I'd drop Beever and play Taylor and Llera. Gardner 4th choice CB for me.
Agree1
Disagree0
I was also at Palace. Both of their wingers were better than ours on the day. Lewis had an off day but is generally steady: Dependent on how Lee is in training - give him a run out. Daniel Jones (as usual) poor and most Palace attacks in 2nd half and their winner played on this. Beevers OK on the day - Murray had the ref in his pocket - I'd pick him at left back ahead of Jones anytime but always behind Reda. Reda needed at set pieces if Miguel is taking corners. I was the knowledgible fan saying 'what's Miguel talking corners for?' as he took his first and we scored from it. Roll on next game - we can get back in the groove.

Well we've got 20mins to confirm it lol talk about leaving it late. i expected barkley today on loan hopefully that'll be the centre mid and that other 'loan' you talked about, and you better be right if he has signed a 3-year deal
Agree6
Disagree0
3yrs is a long deal for a 32yo if it is true don't you think?
Agree3

Lines (injured) Semedo, McCabe, Corry for all CM berths. DJ said that he would'nt let any CM's out on loan without one coming in. No idea who though if anyone although Barkley looks the favourite.

Believable1
Unbelievable21
From a fake twitter site that apparently, well lets hope so anyway
Agree6
Disagree1
No either ogrady or madine will be on their travels you would think and I would have ogrady madine needs a season at this level to adapt
Agree11
Disagree3
You really have to pity the pigs, the most exiting thing happening at their club is naming a stand after an athlete who can't even be bothered to attend. Get off our site neither Reda, nor O'Grady nor Madine going anywhere. On the other hand the overrated Quinn has fled the sty!
Agree4

Yes she is going to try and get to a game meet the fans and see what the stand looks like. life long blade then never been before them pigs like jumping on the band wagon

Believable2
Unbelievable18
I'd sell Madine because his off field activities leave a lot to be desired!
Also COG should be given the chance after his performances!
Agree11
Disagree6
Hav they not signed dj campbell and beckford yet
Agree1
Disagree6
Madine can go for me too same reason thinks hes better than he is
Agree6
Disagree6
Dj would'nt give madine number 9 shirt then sell him he's a quality striker just needs time to settle at this level dont forget rodri n bothroyd are only loans we still need contracted players too and hes only 21
Agree9
Disagree0
People have short memories without madine's 18 goals last season( and he missed 2 months with toe injury) we wouldn't have gone up. He is quality and again will just get better over the next 2-3 years why would we sell . Lay off him
Agree8
Disagree3
Well said! Madine is good enough at this level! People keep saying hes not proven at this level but is Rodri?? Dont get me wrong Iam well impressed with him but he has never played in this country before which is a totally different game to what it is in the Spanish league
Agree3
Disagree3
Madine scored 10 tap ins, 3 penalties and 5 decent goals last year
he isn't good enough at championship level and this will be shown
Agree3
Disagree3
Give him a chance - without his goals we would not be in championship. hes young and needs some good service to make an impact. once he's got a couple of goals he will start banging them in (i hope)
Agree1
Disagree1
Do tap-ins and penalties count as less than 'decent goals' then? Has anyone informed Alan Shearer?
Agree0
Disagree1
Lets hope Madine does shine in this league, however he needs to realise that he is a professional footballer and stop getting into trouble- or he could end up in prison(as the pending court case could determine)
Agree2
Disagree0
Still watching this space ,,, don't recall Madine signing for the pub team in West Yorks yesterday
Agree0
Disagree0
Gary Lineker scores hundreds of tap ins.
Alan Shearer scored hundreds of penalties. But both scored loads of goals. The type of goal does not matter only the amount. You cant say a striker isn't good enough because he doesn't score enough "decent goals". I'd take 30 tap ins a season over 10 decent goals any day
Agree2
Disagree0
Agree it's quantity not quality. for me that was the weakness with Tudgay. Scored some amazing goals but struggled to be prolific.
Agree0
Disagree0
Goals a goal no matter how it ends up the net you've got to be in the right position to tap it in! UP THE MASSIVE
Agree0
Disagree0
Madine won't even score tap ins this year as defenders at this level find it easy to mark static objects
Agree1
Disagree0
Anyone who thinks Chris The Donkey is better than Madine needs to go watch another sport.
Agree0

Anybody who calls Chris O'Grady a donkey is not fit to be called an Owl .

If we get a decent offer i would sell him-he will be constantly caught out with a ball hit with pace on the inside, in this league. He has been a good servant, however I can't see WHUFC buying Reda for Premiership.

Although lazy, Bothroyd is class. I can see him and Rodri rifling a few in between them for sure. Where does this leave Madine? I think he'll be away before 11pm
Agree4

Wat happend to all the talk about barkley from everton any one think that could happen, madine can go for me class league 1striker not good enough for this league

Barkley would be a loan signing and they start again next week so could be still on?

Anybody thought fans fav could be nicky weaver..? owls

On Player he's speaking directly to true Owls fans who pay extra to hear the inside story - and he's telling them that they might be losing one of their favourite players - and you think hes lying ??
Explain please .
Agree3
Disagree0
Dave jones said "fans favourite might not be the staffs favourite but then again we don't have any favourites"
So that doesn't mean there going to sell Madine jst bcoz he's fans favourite and not there's.
Agree1
Disagree0
God I hate Wikipedia! People just make up stuff on it then all of a sudden people think its true!
Agree3
Disagree0
(original poster) i know Villa have made a bid 100% will we take it ? is it a good deal for us - depends how much they have tabled (and not one of DJ's signings so who knows ?)
Agree2
Disagree1
Despite what many fans think about it the original poster makes a good point.
I'm a fan of Madine , but there is a world of difference between showing promise at 22yo, and having the dedication and workrate to go on and fulfil that promise at the top level?
If DJ doesn't think he has that, and he can get a big slice of the Rodri money for him, who knows?
Agree5
Disagree0
If both round is in. We must be losing a striker and it sounds like it will be madine, from fans favourite
Agree3
Disagree1
I really don't think he's villa standard, wouldn't be surPrised if udders spent a bit of their new found money. But not Premier team.
Bothroyd and Rodri, will own this league. ESP with Johnson and Antonio supplying them.
Agree2
Disagree0
Fans favourite could be anyone...I'd be surprised if its Madine though...Weaver and JJ seem the most likely to me
Agree1
Disagree1
Madine is going to get better with age.Not best idea to sell him now on the cheap,especially as we seem to be getting a good group of young players together for the future.
Agree4
Disagree0
No way will it be JJ! I'd like to keep Madine......he will only get better become more valuable in price!
Agree3
Disagree0
I do not think madines potential is in question he has a the ability to be a top player it his attitude and off field problems that puts question marks over his future under DJ
Agree2

After the praise Dave Jones gave him for his performance against Fulham the other night? We are aiming forward not back
Agree2
Disagree1
Is this the same clown who kept putting stupid messages on here about Earnshaw, Maynard decent player but will be on high wages, also Madine valuations placed on here not realistic. He scored 18 goals last season and is in court on a serious charge. If we received offer of 1.5m it ould be accepted instantly. Just think before you post, he is a good player with good control. He lacks ruggedness and combativity of O'Grady but this will come with experience. Only slight issue is he lacks a couple of yards of pace.

Believable5
Unbelievable2
Be stupid to get rid of madine he played against fulham - (against experienced CB's) his still young at 22 he and rodri (if signs after his loan spell) have great potential and could have years to get to know each others game.... a bit like quinn and philiphs when they played for sunderland....
Agree1

How can you not be madines biggiest fan? He's a Wednesday legend! We would be in league 1 if it wasn't for him! So people do talk some clap trap
Agree1
Disagree4
Think people throw around the term legend far to often. none of the current team are legends
Agree2
Disagree0
It would appear opinions are allowed provided they're yours. It's not clap trap, just my opinion. I don't particularly want him to leave, I'm really happy with the options up front, madine will have to perform this season as we have much stronger options though.
And, I'm sure DJ will not sell unless his replacement is already sorted.
Agree1
Disagree1
I also see huge flaws in Madines game, but he is young and has a good eye for goal. It would be a big mistake to let him go, unless DJ see's an attitude problem that many fans suspect he has.

Llera is pretty close to legend already imho
