ZicoSterland2 Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 1 hour ago, SallyCinnamon said: Well this is the problem. We’ve got a lot of players here on good money. But I do believe we do have saleable assets - Forestieri, Joao, Reach and Bannan would all attract interest from other clubs. You maybe right but can only see Reach fetching in decent money. Bannan and FF around 3million and Joao similar.plus Rhodes 3 million. If we sell for those figures how would we replace them. For some reason nobody seems willing to pay top dollar to us . While clubs like Brentford seem to be able to ask what they want. In 45 years of watching the Owls we never seem to have got true value for anyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing has changed ! nothing has changed". Update expected soon ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 What a bunch of absolute jokers the EFL are Club can’t comment because it’s in the hands of the EFL EFL ..... we have no indication of timescale and no comment to make wonderfully insightful for the fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogers Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 As per Royal D’s post.....insightful story by The Star. An unnamed EFL person said they can’t say anything and neither can the club = made up page filler https://www.thestar.co.uk/sport/football/sheffield-wednesday/latest-owls-news/efl-tight-lipped-over-sheffield-wednesday-soft-transfer-embargo-486002 Speaking to The Star this morning, an EFL spokesperson said they were unable to comment on ongoing rulings and refused to give an indication of how long it could take for Wednesday’s embargo to be lifted. Sheffield Wednesday have also maintained that they are unable to comment – because the issue is in the hands of the EFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

striker Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Another poo summer, no manager, embargoed again and the season only a week or so away. Now the accounts are in, maybe DC should get his lawyers to have a look at a restraint of trade complaint against the EFL. The clocks ticking, transfer window shuts early and EFL deliberately stopping us from recruiting a competitive squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sure we don't have a competitive squad though... Sure we don't have Michael Hector. But we do have Borner providing cover. Yes we don't have Hooper. But he get's injured so much, on balance we probably made the right decision. Rhodes is back, and for the first time he's getting on the SWFC scoresheet regularly. Here's hoping. Apart from that, we've let go of Boyd, Jones, Abdi, Pudil and Matias. Matias is the biggest miss out of that lot - and that's saying something. We've got Harris & Odubajo in. Happy with that. We've done pretty well so far considering we've only been allowed free transfers. I don't feel we're a weaker side than last season. 'Course it'd be great to kick on and add more quality into the side - especially in midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, not really sure how to be confident for the upcoming season when we’re essentially been strangled by the EFL and absolutely no indication there going to be happy anytime soon Who’s to even say they will be happy in January ? Embargo and points deduction like Birmingham seems plausible to me if there gonna give us zero indication on what position we’re at currently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
