Surely there's just enough time to get a fucking deal agreed for someone decent FFS...

Why would they?

When folk realise that football and getting results on the pitch is secondary it will all make sense.

We’re not in financial trouble though 

actually we are....cracks are showing .. the main source of Vs funding this op is SBI funds....now that tap is shut off and sales is running this club... all these punts are plucking lower european players/academy players and giving them minutes in championship and reselling. run the club,stay in championship ,collect salaries /kickbacks and % of agents comms.... cushy gig 

[roverblue]

The fee means nothing to me as it’s no use to the team and just goes into Pashas back pocket to make him look better in the eyes of Venky’s. I would rather all of them stayed and run their contracts down before leaving for free.

We are if V’s have said they don’t want to continue to subsidise the operation - whether that is partially or wholly…

[jim mk2]

Brittain, Baath, Travis, Hyam, Weimann  - the heart has been ripped out of the club. 

Relegation a near certainty in my book. Bet placed 

[BankEnd Rover]

Elliott Moore left Oxford by Mutual consent, worth a shot....he's only 28.

What odds did you get ?

[TommyRovers]

Harry Leonard fell through. Secretly happy about that. 

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Nobody buying Pears? 

Quelle surprise.

Bald facts were that he didn’t fancy being transplanted into another club…

[Elrovers]

Idah confirmed to Swansea. Most likely they’re getting benson as well. Damn that’s what you call ambition 

[DavidMailsTightPerm]

Last minute deal - I bet we won't mess up the paperwork on this one - strange isn't it

It’s all about cost reduction…nothing else.

[Displaced Rover]

I did think the next couple of seasons would be managed decline rather than active sabotage. Alas, given the dickheads in charge far too much credit.

Was going to post the same, the fax machine will work absolutely perfectly and there won't be a typo or a spelling mistake in sight.

[Parsonblue]

Alan Browne to Middlesbrough on season long loan.  Cracking signing for them.

[philipl]

All Sheffield Wednesday Summer incoming dealings annulled by the EFL because of lack of assurances from the owner.

Any of those worth a 10 minute phone call?

2.7m flr Hyam? Wow. that's a extremely crazy risky sale for the sake of a few million.

Edited for you to reflect the general feeling.

This is the result of Suhail’s power grab. He had to interfere and obstruct from the sidelines while Waggott was here. As soon as he’s got rid of the CEO and promoted/hired similarly arrogant, incompetent and unpleasant people in roles of relative power it was always going to end in tears.

There is no desire for the club to compete, let alone progress. If our transfer business and blatant cost cutting on the playing side isn’t proof enough, just have a look what’s happening off the pitch. Shitty online surveys masquerading as fan engagement. No attempt to improve attendances, just a constant hard sell to season ticket holders to upgrade to hospitality. Ewood Park falling further into disrepair and the only “improvements” being a few rails drilled in to satisfy the safety executive and a couple of plastic birds on strings.

The owners don’t give a shit. Suhail is the common thread that has run through the club like a poison since November 2010. Unfortunately he is now feeling emboldened enough to wander round like a minor celebrity on match days with his brain trust in tow.

The semblance of near normality we had for a few years, and the finishes just outside the playoffs were far below what we should accept, but in all honesty they were a miracle all things considered. And that relative success was all in spite of Suhail and his pay masters, certainly not because of them.

The one man most responsible for all the pain of the last 15 years is still here, and he’s calling all the shots.

[RevidgeBlue]

Has the Birmingham lad been confirmed?

£7m.

We just can't compete in this league any more with these owners strangling the life out of us.

[chaddyrovers]

Well can we not recalled Connor O`Riordan to replace Hyam if we aren't signing a replacement which we should have before we agreed for Hyam to go there
