RUMBELOWS91 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 I wonder how he's doing in training? i mean, if it's obvious he's coming on leaps and bounds then it's got to make the powers that be think twice, hasn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shezzas left peg Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Get the kid on a 12 month extension and see if you can either get him on loan in January to Rotherham or under heck with the dingles, let him prove he deserves a first team shirt.

Shetland Owl Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 The club should not be held to ransom , they have offered him a new contract recently- he turned it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legendaryswan Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Il be pretty miffed if the kid leaves,after all its what we as a club are all about,bringing through young players,we thrived off it during the 60s,fair enough our recent record on that fronts pretty pants,but theres credible reasons for that,which makes it all the more gauling to lose one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Right... Tbf we were only a good performance away from promotion under Chansiri not so long ago. Richards, for the all the early success, will go down as the man who allowed the rot to set in and then high tailed it out of here when we'd hit the iceberg (for the first time). Hopefully, Chansiri's tenure won't end in similar circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, Chansiri's tenure won't end in similar circumstances. He was a hero once - which was my point. Someone who signed some of the best players we’d seen at Hillsborough in half a century. Not decent players who can’t quite cut it in the Premier League but England internationals. If FFP bites us in the arse DC’s reign will have had a similar trajectory- albeit without the extreme high of seeing Waddle etc in a Wednesday shirt. Richards had huge ambitions for Wednesday and he almost made it too - but ultimately he was a disaster. Hero worshipping chairmen is generally misguided. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His fate is in his own hands - I’m just making sure I keep thoughts of DC - and modern football in general - separate from my emotional attachment to the club otherwise I would have walked by now. If I couldn’t afford a ST I would have packed in already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But doesn't beat 20 years of near financial ruin. culminating in being served with a winding up order. All of which was down to Richards and his mismanagement of the club. If he hadn't managed the club so badly we might not be still fighting to get back to the premiership after 17 years. Short term gain long term pain.

MaxSW5 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 wonder if he'll get a new contract and maybe a run in first team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
