Ok Sheffield Wednesday will have a new manager in the future - is that any good. If you want to believe his speculation crack on, I don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it's true that we will and up with a new manager soon and he'll want to capitalise on it a little to sell stories and papers to us lot. But if he knew nothing, he wouldn't say anything. Like he has done in the past. Or he'd have just made a guess comment like he did regarding Westwood situation. With the Bruce link though he said he'd been for talks. Doesn't mean anything other than he's been for talks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a bob or bust policy which worked in Wolves' case, but has failed elsewhere. We sort of half-heartedly went for it instead. On 10/12/2018 at 00:38, Blue and white said: Exactly, we neither did one or the other but seem to have wasted a feck load of money in the process. i think the original idea that dc had, altered firstly when a club the size of newcastle was relegated with parachute money, with other sizeable premier clubs like villa to follow. add to that the increased interest in buying and gaining promotion with a decent sized championship club by multi millionaires, if not billionaires, put things at s6 into a different light.

You know its come to something when we are arguing who is the best manager out of Irvine and Jos! can you imagine a 'jos' wednesday versus an 'irvine' wednesday, nobody would cross the halfway line, just in case they got counter attacked. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good day. I don't think thats the case, he clearly knows more than the man in the pub, he does have contacts and I don't believe he would put something like this out there unless there was something in it. Things don't always go as predicted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH from my point of view it's entirely sensible - i't's not cheating if there's no tongues' errr sure i heard that somewhere I suspect any leak will have come from Bruce's agent getting his man out there in the press as wanted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S36 OWL Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Nixon's strike rate is pretty impressive where we are concerned. He called Jos well before he turned up at Hillsboro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've no longer any angst with Nixon I used to because as above his early posts were scattergun rubbish but he's now got a little rep going and I believe he's fed by agents promoting moves for their clients bit like a plug hole gathers all floating rumours where else would he get information ?

WalthamOwl Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Nixon saying he’s going to have a story in the paper on Sunday about us. He isn’t expecting anything to happen before that.
