quinnssweetshop Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 1 hour ago, MrEdwards said: Chansiri did say at the most recent fan event that PAXO thought we needed to continue with the recruitment model we have. If that means signing players over 27 on Megabucks, I smell quite a big catastrophe on the way. I know it's easier said than done, but we need to try and make our recruitment less of a risk. We've made progress with Iorfa, Harris and Börner, hopefully there can be more of that this summer edited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horny owl Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 He’s absolutely right With chansiri in charge we’re a joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marro Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Agree with everything Waddle says. Wish more of the ex players were as vocal. Our recruitment during Chansiri’s tenure has been woeful. Millions spent on players who are well past their best. Refusal to sell players because you are holding out for a better offer. Madness. We need people in at the club who know what they are doing but I can’t see matters changing whilst Chansiri is at the helm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnyowl Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Like his comments before, he's not wrong and I would suspect that most fans would be in Waddles side rather than the chairmen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are players out there as someone listed earlier but it needs someone to get off their arse and look for them and a chairman who will take the gamble and not take the easy route.

Even loaning our youngsters out doesn't happen often enough. Clubs like Bristol City, Brentford and Peterborough consistently outperform us in the transfer market.

Stir up the fans and force DC out. The new consortium are going to build a massive 70,000 stadium in The Moor area of town.

Brentford seem to have an overall strategy where the team plays great football (even with a turnover of managers) they recruit players to fit there system and have no issue selling players if it means they can re-invest. Our style of play changes depending on who is in charge, our recruitment is a mixed bag (probably due to the above) and we hoard players only for them to be released at the end of there contract meaning the only way to invest is to break FFP.

"This is what annoys me about Wednesday, I don’t see a scouting system there," he said. "Where are these players coming from? There are a lot of hungry players out there. "You need to look into the character of the players. There are hungry players down the leagues who would die to put a Sheffield Wednesday shirt on and play in front of 25,000 or 30,000 every week. Who's buying these players? "It’s sad because it's a club that is ready to go to the Premier League. "I wish someone would take hold of the football club because everything is there, the club, the fans are passionate, but I don't see Chansiri taking this club back into the promised land. Let’s hope he sells. "Some people say that Chansiri saved the club but for me he has a lot to answer for. "Wednesday should have been making the play-offs every season [since he arrived]." This is NOT down to Chansiri, more to the fact that Wednesday have never had a decent scouting system in all my 50+ years of watching them, or a youth development policy. Just what is Waddo's agenda here?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he could have, and maybe he has since the development squad seem's to be doing it's job at this time. Not every thing is the fault of Chansiri, how many fans complained when the club bought FF, Fletcher, Rhodes or any of the other players he helped to bring to the club? . Yes, he had his pants down early on, in the 1st 2 seasons, but seem's to have learned from that experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
