Guest Sheff Owl Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Sheffield Wednesday supporters group Wednesdayite will tonight challenge Owls chairman Milan Mandaric about whether Millers frontman Adam Le Fondre is on the club’s transfer hitlist. Manager has already given Mandaric a list of six players he would like to bring to the club for next season with the Rotherham United frontman likely to attract attention after scoring 24 goals in 43 starts during the current campaign. The transfer target question will be among a number of issues raised by Wednesdayite members when they meet Mandaric for the first time since the multi-millionaire saved the club from administration last December. Richard Davies, a director of Wednesdayite, says Mandaric will receive a warm welcome but must expect to be quizzed by Owls fans about how much he is willing to invest to get the club challenging for promotion next season. He said: “We’ve not had the opportunity to meet with Mr Mandaric since he took control of the club last year. “He has hosted a fans forum but this will be the first time he has met with Wednesdayite. “What our members ask is down to them but I’d imagine they’d be keen to know how much he will be willing to spend during the summer. “We’d imagine will be working with a League One budget after the Tommy Miller situation. “He is sure to be asked who are the six names on the list that Megson has given him.” Adam Le Fondre’s name has been banded about on various forums and amongst supporters.” Current loan players would be popular signings, said Davies: “Danny Batth looks very accomplished at this level so he’d be one who I’d like to see back. “Another is Neil Mellor, who has divided opinion with fans. But 20 goals is a good achievement. Mr Mandaric saved our club from extinction. We’re very pleased with both him and .” Whether Mandaric reveals the list or not is down to the Serbian’s discretion. Le Fondre had an excellent first half of the season before falling out of favour. A brace at Aldershot on Saturday marked his return to the Millers line-up and new boss Andy Scott is already saying he can make him even better. The meeting, in the 1867 lounge at Hillsborough, starts at 7.30pm and is open to Wednesdayite members only. It would be nice to know if we are trying to get a tough tackling midfield player or at least do we think we need one. Someone who is NOT afraid to get stuck in, win the ball and just give it - keep it simple. For too long now we have lacked this, we have had teams take the wee wee out of us just passing it around us and though us while we just seemed to watch. JOC tries yes but IMO he is not the answer.

Guest BoomTownOwls Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I have no idea at all why any Sheffield Wednesday fan would want Adam Le Fondre. He simply isn't good enough and has found his level. Let the Pigs sign him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee A Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I have no idea at all why any Sheffield Wednesday fan would want Adam Le Fondre. He simply isn't good enough and has found his level.

scram Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I'm a supporter of Wednesdayite - but they/we have no right to be asking about specific transfer targets And could we be kicking up a fuss about somebody a bit better if we insist on doing it?

Theres a huge difference between members asking who we are targetting - and demanding an answer Im sure tonights meeting will focus on more than that - and nobody will be expecting answers to questions about the players - I'm sure Richard was asked by the journalist what type of questions are you expecting tonight to which he answered. To be fair - journalists look for a story and don't always 100% accurately report what was said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sheff Owl Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 For me i agree, it WOULD be nice to know what areas we are thinking about improving but i would never expect names and i guess it would be wrong too. Like i said i really do think we need a Tough tackling midfield player if it was said that's a type of player we are looking for then fantastic, let them get on with it so they can get the best man possible to do that job!!
