Worked his socks off but nothing special, average all round. Pointless signing but never given a run to try and prove himself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Never given a chance Given 45 minutes one game then dropped the next How anyone expects a striker to be consist on that I don't know Proved at dingles and Derby he could deal at this level But pure Wednesday style we prefer playing lump to wardrobe tactics 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taximark Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 I had high hopes but god knows what it is here ...Stavie May, Sam Winnall, Jordan Rhodes - all turn to dust once they set foot on the Hillsborough pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigdan2003 Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 He was on the crest of a wave when we signed him. Bang in form, and we signed him for peanuts in the grand scheme of things. But then the week after we blew 10 million on Rhodes. And like a lot of signings during that period they were chucked on a stock pile never to really be given a chance.

Blue and white Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Another utterly clueless signing and we actually wonder why we massively over shot the FFP limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was mega critical when we signed him and Rhodes, but plenty were blinded by the fact they’d scored goals for nothing teams. Just one look at their limited attributes, would have told you it would end this way. Two of the most disastrous signings in our recent history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bouncing Owl Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 That double swoop in January 2017 for winnall and Rhodes was an absolute disaster. We has plenty of strikers anyway and I acknowledge that we did have a couple who were struggling with injuries. But we needed pace in that team in wide areas. But no, we go and purchase 2 strikers who are both limited footballers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He signed for us because we quadrupled his wages..he could have gone to several of our rivals..but none got near our offer. He came for next to nothing 500k cos his contract was about to expire...which pisssed Barnsley off.. He was doing ok with Barnsley, looked like a good deal..( being we were looking good for promotion)..for next to nothing transfer fee wise. Went titts up, it does sometimes.
