Michael Smith - Perfect signing
CourteenerOwl replied to Holmowl's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Smith is a good signing in terms of we needed a target man. Last year was his best ever scoring season though, before that he was more of a Nuhui in terms of scoring, so have to keep expectations realistic . Still think Gregory is our main man up top and will score the most, if he keeps fit. -
I don't rate Patterson particularly, but in a 46 game season, he is a very useful squad player. The issue being, I bet he won't be that happy with that, we have all seen him throwing his dummy out the pram when he has been subbed despite another inept display. If he was happy to be a squad player then fine, he covers a variety of positions and can do a job for one off games. You don't want him starting games.

If we sign a decent winger with some pace and who can be direct to replace NML and we have signed Vaulks to replace Luongo - we are not weaker, much the same really. If anything, NML is quite easy to replace. He flattered to deceive last season, no where near as fast as some lead you to believe and I do think we can find better. In CM we have great options and whilst Luongo is a good player so is Vaulks and with Luongo injury record last 3 years, I would say Vaulks in for Luongo makes us stronger. We need two more CBs, competition for Hunt and Johnson and a young striker with pace.

If we signed Wilks and Woodrow and we have Gregory and Windass. That's promotion.

Dawson must have been really excited about coming back to us after a great season last year out on loan. Must have thought, it was his time and last time it was just unfortunate he had an experienced 36 year old always in the background or in front of him. The moment he comes back we sign another 36 year old experienced keeper

Will judge Ben Heneghan once I have seen him play. I must admit I have no idea what he is like. My gut feeling is he cannot be any worse than Dunkley and is probably Dunkley replacement. Then we need to replace Hutchinson - hopefully with Dean. Then need a further CB to replace Gibson and hopefully one with a left foot. So options would be Iorfa, Dean, New Backup Palmer Heneghan and Brennan.

EFL could stream matches and scrap 3pm protection
CourteenerOwl replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
If they are worried about the factor of it effecting attendances lower down the chain, just charge more for the streams so it's a harder choice. If you lived in Sheffield and can pay £10 for Ifollow or £30.00 to go to the game, for the half hearted and less involved it's easy. If the Ifollow ticket was £25.00 they might be more inclined to go to the game. For those who are die hard but might have a wedding or what have you - the option to have a 'legal' platform to watch the game, and slyly watch the game whilst the speeches are on, could be appealing.
