Adam Armstrong joining Wolves

That Wigan team was nowhere near our team

When? Rough idea? Season?

What a uninspiring signing ffs

I think there's an element of him being frustrated with the board too. I'm sure he wants nothing more than better players but we are, afsin, penny pinching. Fkn joke.

He was going to be out of contract this summer, the length of contract will be so that the player doesn't lose out financially, we will be paying him as much (maybe a little more) over his 1.5 year contract as he would have earned over the rest of this season in Germany

18 months due to his age maybe? God knows 🙄🙈

It will be utterly unbearable if we do stay up to see/hear RG and Pasha’s arrogant drivel about how the aligned plan is still ongoing and an exciting summer lies ahead. Pass the sick bowl.

This is like signing Dennis and Woodrow. Only worse.

Not everything has been

I am sure he is still "aligned"

No one was walking out after they equalised. We should take note. No planned walk outs late in the game.

So we have waited until the 1st of February to sign a player that is NOT up to speed? Somebody should ask Valerien Ismael some very hard questions tomorrow. Let's see if he still comes across as 'understanding'.

Why is everything last minute?

They’ve not long since equalised, so they’ll be marching back in, I imagine!

He said it. I heard him

He waa out of contract this summer, and has hardly played for them this season Imagine its under £0.5M, and the length of contract is so that the player doesn't lose out financially, we will be paying him as much (maybe a little more) over his 1.5 year contract as he would have earned over the rest of this season in Germany

The side that went down had been absolutely ravaged of any remaining assets by the owners. The team that came up even with the addition of Dack (who obviously succumbed to injury) was nowhere near being a team to look towards the top of the Championship. Even with £10m spent on it, which was the one summer when maybe they had a shred of "interest." The summer after, we spent another £5m predominantly funded by the sale of Raya. From then on, the interest had gone again and not enough time or crucially money had been spent to get that side justifiably looking towards the top. It wasnt a wasted opportunity in that the money and period of supposed interest wasnt sufficient to prop up a side competitive at the top end. When we did start challenging, it wasnt by design or because of owner funding. The core of the team at the heart of those top 8 finishes under Mowbray and then Tomasson were Brereton, the main player signed during that flash of interest who needed time to develop. Rothwell who again needed time to develop. And also graduates like Travis, Dolan (signed very young for the academy but fasttracked), Wharton, Carter and the odd clever loan. This idea that Mowbray spurned a golden opportunity of owner interest is totally flawed and I hate it because it gives them far too much credit. £10m added to a good League 1 squad and a year of interest wasnt this huge opportunity.

18 months could be a reflection of the worst quadruple in football (Pasha, Gestede, Owen, Ismael) starting to grow some self-knowledge? Since their transfer track record is 1 in 10, we'd better not tie them down for too long.

Spurs fans planning a walk out protest on 75mins in today's game. Interesting to see how many go, they're currently 1-2 down against City and were booed off at half time.

Some right bullshit being spouted, Mowbray turning down of money was made up on here, same as the profiting from selling the training ground, by the same poster/Group of posters. If it doesn’t make sense, its probably not true. Not that we want Mowbray back in any case. He was very good when he was here, working for morons and gaining a promotion, a night I won’t forget as they don’t happen that often.

What’s the fee? Can’t be more than £1m with a contract no longer than 18 months.

These signings are smacking of having one eye on league 1.

Horrible signing. Portsmouth signing proven Championship-quality players while we're signing nomadic players and Birmingham rejects might well be the difference between staying up and going down.

Did a good job until we got promoted back to the Championship. After that an absolute disaster imo. Stagnation at a time when the owners still retained a bit of interest. We all knew they would give up and lose interest at some point and unfortunately Mowbray oversaw that. We could have done with someone ambitious like JDT or Eustace at the Club after we got promoted.
