Popular Post Lord Snooty Posted February 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) We could do with a striker really.... **** **** **** "This is it Stubbs, this is it! The start of it. Oh yes. for months, years even we have been calling for more options at the top end. Now we have three in the door. They're like buses! Oh yes. This is the start" "Well, Sir, two of them can't play tomorrow and it looks like the third will probably be on the bench" "Bloody hell Stubbs! You're always there aren't you, ready to pop the balloon of happiness. Look, the thing is we've needed this for ages. Needed to get these players in the door and that's what we've done. I for one am delighted and think this could be the turning point." "You might be right ,Sir, but it doesn't change the fact that two thirds of the signings won't be in the match day squad and you've a tough game against Millwall before you're likely to see all three starting" "Doesn't matter! We've waited this long we can wait a bit longer. This is a joyful day. Even if they turn out to be pants, I'm loving it" "What? Even if they turn out to be duff?" "Oh yes. Because the transfer window is like a separate entity to the actual football." "How so,Sir?" "Because the whole thing is a mood changer. Even though there's no ball being kicked. No goals being scored. No goals being conceded. Did you ever have a HEAD bag, Stubbs?" "No Sir" "But you wanted one didn't you. Wanted one for your birthday perhaps?" "More than anything, Sir" "Remember that wait and how you worried you wouldn't get one." "I didn't get one". "Exactly! That is like the transfer window as the clock ticks by when you're a Wednesday fan. Longing, worry, anxiety, and hope. It pulls you in envelopes you. Have you seen the Megathread? Some of those chaps are like scag heads down West Street. It makes people desperados. The pain of need and desire. It hollows . It's like old Costello was saying the other day...he said looking at the transfer window was like staring into the abyss" "Abscess, Sir" "Pardon?" "He said he was staring into an abscess" "Really? . Hmm, well, can't say I'm surprised, he once spent 6 months staring at some chutney. But either way, the point is this. When you get a signing in it's like getting that HEAD bag Stubbs." "I see ,Sir" "So we've now got 3 head bags! And ok. School doesn't start for another week, so we can't show them off. But that doesn't matter. Because we've got them and that's all that matters. The fact the faux leather will start peeling in a month or so or that Fatty Ryman will detach the removable boot bag and throw it in the Don doesn't matter just now. That's a different pain for us to tackle at the time. All that matters now is that we have the bags!" "If you say so,Sir" --------------------------------- WEDNESDAY -V- MILLWALL ----------------------------------------- Saturday 1st February Kick off : 15:00pm Owlerton --------------------------------- SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY Wednesday's Ferando Forestieri, out of contract at the end of the season could feature for Wednesday againt the Lions "He is up for selection. He has been training for a couple of weeks now. I wouldn't say he is at his full fitness but that's where the games would have helped. He has done some hard work and is back up for selection.” Defender Morgan Fox is likely to start despite a knock in the week against Wigan with his manager describing him as "A warrier with the type of spirit I want. The type I want with that attitude" .

Lord Snooty Posted February 1, 2020 Author Share Posted February 1, 2020 From the way Monk was talking earlier I think the Da Cruz boy will probably make some sort of cameo from the bench. But clearly once he's up to speed he's a player that he's clearly wanting to have in the side. He fits the profile that we need. He is young, athletic, quick and we don't have that option in the squad. He comes with a hunger and a desire. Those are the type of players you need when you are recruiting. We are delighted he is in the building. He is something that we have not got. He can play in other positions but his main position is striker. It was important that we added that type of player so I am delighted he is here Garry Monk on Alessio Da Cruz 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanharper Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) Oh great, a home game, the first of four in February - I bet it's a long time since we had home league games on 3 different February Saturdays. It'll be tough, Rowett's doing a very decent job (does him appearing in the managers area at Hillsborough mean we'll all get paid out by the bookies?) and Millwall are one of those teams who'll be a nightmare to break down, quite happy to set up for a point but capable of snatching all three. They've already won at Bristol and Swansea, plus won at WBA in the cup and drawn there in the league and were unlucky not to get something at Leeds. Exactly the sort of game we struggle in. But Wednesday being Wednesday - who knows. Ref Watch No idea, no officials at all are named for our game, all still TBC. We'll do it ourselves. I've got a whistle somewhere, I'll dig it out if somebody can bring a couple of flags along. As long as Colin "I'm a qualified referee you know" Warnock, George Courtney or Neil Swarbrick don't turn up we'll be golden. .

Wisenightowl Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Head bags, what a blast from the past. Might have to have a look in the loft: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/312970903632 I'll have some Wednesday to win and BTTS at odds of 5-1 (we have been leaking a few and Millwall will pose a threat), plus our last 6 results don't look so terrible with the cup games in there. C'mon Wednesday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
