I might be getting mixed up, but isn't he the small nippy tricky player we've got? That's right. Not really seen him but was starting to be more regular in the U18s I noticed towards the end of the season. I read on here that he had also been playing for the U16's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iyad_Hamud Edited June 16, 2018 by Etchesketch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've just heard from a bloke somewhere that someone said something, isn't signing something, wants more money etc etc. In reality all rumour again. Let's all be honest here - nobody REALLY knows anything I think the fact George hasn’t come out publicly defending himself from the rumours means they’re probably true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure at that age I would have had the confidence to go the press with what would possibly be a controversial story? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people are prepared to believe half-baked rumours then that's down to themselves and their own gullibility. Wish people would follow the evidence and if there isn't any evidence, then don't make it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StudentOwl Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 I find it incredible that on a thread spanning one and a half days and five pages, we have, by my count, a total of 15 posts actually referencing the topic of the thread- ie Borukov and his contract. And that's including Neil posting the OP twice! Must be an Owlstalk record this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tea Baggins Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Another pathetic hijack of a positive thread. I'm actually embarrassed if share a stadium with some of these fucktards at times like these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@owlstalk Posted June 17, 2018 Author Share Posted June 17, 2018 BACK TO THE TOPIC Sheffield Wednesday have confirmed they have offered Preslav Borukov a new contract and are confident he is going to sign it. We've been highlighting this player for some time now as he's bursting through the ranks banging in goals in a big way for the U18's and U23 sides we have at Hillsborough as well as during his international games for Bulgaria He's a real prospect, big, strong, and prolific We need him to sign this contract and continue to be a core part of our youth development and he could very well become a first team player, especially under Jos who has a refreshing approach to developing and nurturing the young hungry, and exciting talent we have in our younger sides (unlike his predecessor who is now currently without a job) Come on Borukov - GET SIGNING!

Swiss Toni Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 At least Jos has shown that he gives youth a chance (even if his hand was slightly forced). This may add weight to whether Borukov signs or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back to topic. (and the reason I actually opened this thread.) I saw Borukov play in the U23 Colchester game. He looked a very strong player and was unlucky to be taken off when he was starting to look a cert to score. When he came back to the bench he had a bit of a tantrum. Kicking water bottles, slamming cool box lids etc. In fact I missed the Colchester goal, which from memory must have been 10/15 minutes later as I was watching him give another water bottle a hard time. Though this was childish and impetuous behavior, it also showed a passion for the game and the fact he was absolutely gutted at being substituted. He still has a way to go, but I feel if he makes the grade then some one with his more fiery nature may be a good addition. FFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some one that stands out for different reason is Nielsen. It may be confidence because of his first team appearances but even though he's not captain you can hear him constantly shouting/ organising especially for corners free kicks etc. He comes across as a very confident young man and a natural leader.
