Worst financially performing club in Europe
TheEnchanter replied to jonnyowl's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Said it for years everything about this club financially and in terms of planning is short term, sticking plasters. Even the recruitment this year highlights that (which I am contextually happy with, I believe we need older players to get us promoted) but we have no faith in our ability to improve players and add value to them and I think it's a fitting metaphor for the way the club is run. It's hard to ever see the evidence of us investing in the medium to long term future of the club. Everything seems like a season long reaction to our previous failings. We're chasing shadows in a lot of ways and there's no surprise why much smaller teams historically continually show us up off the pitch and on it. -
The people criticising the Glastojogger will be sat watching VHS reruns of Roy Chubby Brown, crying about how the good old days are gone whilst shovelling packs of ham trimmings into their mouths on margarine drenched breadcakes.

Lucas Joao - Sell on clause?
TheEnchanter replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
He's in the final year of his contract and is 29 soon. I can't imagine anyone paying more than £3M to 3.5M for him. He is probably worth more than that but contract length will put Reading in a tricky situation. If we can nab some money to cover the Wilks signing and maybe another then thats very good. -
Goal return predictions
TheEnchanter replied to Barnsleyowl1996's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Think maybe 40 from attack. 20 from midfield 10 from defence 3 own goals. -
**** me just wait until the first drab draw or defeat against Forest Creams, Chelentus or Bayern Shrewsnich. Are we daft or what its gonna be a right old scrap. We can definitely be up there but i'm not setting myself up for an eggy faced fall.

Presuming he would be based on the fact he moved to Fulham for about £6M and has recently been on Prem wages. It's not hard to imagine that he could have been on over 30k a year as recently as 2021. I don't think what we could offer, or should be offering, as a League 1 club would be anywhere near that considering we've just signed the likes of Heneghen. I know we will put our hands in our pockets for more centre backs but can't see Hector being one of them.

A quick scout indicates he's played the equivalent to 26 full games in the 3 seasons since he last played for us. Is it wise to sign an expensive 29 year old who has played no more than 9 games a season for 3 years? Not for me. Hate looking backwards too. Let's move on.

No transfers/rumours ever happen in the order they are revealed anyway. Its more than likely we enquired about Payne before or at a similar time to Vaulks. Vaulks signs and we no longer need Payne but from the Swindon side they still see we are one of the teams to show interest. Most likely these things have been going on for months and months as well.

I'd be happy if we never spent a transfer fee again
TheEnchanter replied to nickswfc's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Unless it gets us success I disagree. We are in League 1 and have been on a downward trend for years. Unless we show we can recruit successfully with small budgets we will forever just swim around league 1/lower Champ like we have for the last 23 years.
