Lord Snooty Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) But just what we're those problems? Scattergun transfer policy which mean we never signed a striker capable of doing 100m in less than two minutes? FFP? Or pesky fans questioning why they were paying top dollar for second division football with the attacking intent of a 1960s Italian Catenaccio? Referees? The whole of the squad being cripples? Doyen Not enough shirts to go around What problems Damn it! What problems! Edited February 7, 2018 by Lord Snooty 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Farrell Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Carlos you were told it wasn't working (1 year too late), and politely asked to leave. You may blag the Welshies for 6 months before you show your true colours. You may have blagged us with your Doyen buddies once. You aren't blagging us again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owls maniac Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 What’s most concerning is that despite how pitiful our performances had become DC still didn’t pull the trigger. If it wasn’t for Swansea tapping him up he would still be here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMOwl72 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 He's gone. Leave him be. Let's look forward. We have much more things that should concern us at the minute. Win or lose on the 17th Feb we won't even remember in 6 months time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gypsyowl Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 can't stand the bloke tbh, yeah 2 good seasons but with the money he had available it was hardly surprising, the 1st season was more impressive but it was his fault we ballsed the hudders games. fans look at most recent times & he's played a massive part towards the current mess we are in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReluctantNicko Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) It was like when Eddie Howe resigned at Burnley saying his wife was homesick for the south coast - he made sure Bournemouth wanted him as boss again before jumping ship. He knew he was probably going to get sacked anyway by Burnley who were hovering just above the relegation zone because of Howe's terrible defensive coaching. Just before he left, Burnley drew 3-3 with the Owls despite leading three times and In the next game, Howe's last game at Burnley, it was a 4-3 defeat at Palace after the Clarets had led 2-0.

Buxtongent Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 I can't understand this vilification of Doyen . As far as I can ascertain, Doyen is simply a sports advisory company (A posh name for a Football Agent ) and has on its books a certain Neymar, who's not a half bad footballer.. They also 'advised' DC on his introduction to Football. It's a world wide company, and probably attracts some of the top names in football., so:- What has it done at Hillsborough ? How many, and more importantly, which of our players does it represent? As a football agent, why is it the only one that constantly gets hammered on here? I am in no way trying to justify Doyen, simply trying to understand its vilification over and above other football agents, and trying to understand what its influence (obviously on here considered bad) over the Wednesday set up If someone can explain FACTUALLY what exactly itsinfluence has ben, I would appreciate it. I am quite prepared to heap blame on someone, but I prefer to do it from a position of knowledge, and not hearsay. Please , someone, fill me in on this.

Of course I can't disprove it, but I'm willing to bet that the bullshitometer is lying in a million pieces on the floor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they sent us Neymar I would make a bit of time for them! So far as I can see though they have been paid by the club to look for players for us. While they were in town they signed up some of our youth players. One who won't sign a new deal. Meanwhile they are sat in warmer climes recommending players to us...that they don't even really need to scout as they are already on their books. Allegedly.

S36 OWL Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 The man must think we are muppets . Anyone who believes this cobblers needs to give their head a wobble. He shafted us , pure and simple. He knew he was going to swansea. He could have at least done the decent thing and not quit and make swansea pay us compo . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its going to take him at least two transfer windows to sort out this mess. Its not Jos`s fault that our players get injured getting dressed in a morning. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
