That first line though... hahahahhaa

I'm bitter about everything to do with football at the moment but if you think you'll be signing owt special from Jorge Medes you'll be in for a rude awakening. For every Ronaldo he has he has a Bebe.
Walkley said Mendes has had an involvement in players Wednesday have signed since Chansiri came in didn't he? You regularly get your cock wet over individuals such as Forestieri and Hooper, and their easy on the eye style of football, so I can't see why you're knocking it.

The Wednesday
Mendes has a hand in a couple of our signings, think Matias and Joao are under his agency and he helped broker the Alex Lopez loan.

As for our football style, it was good again last night

Wednesday signed some shite last year and Mendes was supposed to be involved when Carvahal came in and around that time they signed a fair few who you've never seen again. So who's to say he wasn't the one who palmed em off with shite like Daryl Lachman?

Like you said, for every Ronaldo there's a Bebe. Matias and Joao are perfectly good signings, and what Walkley's saying adds up given both of those are Portugese.

Well he can't be much worse than Kevin Thelwell was for us, who brought in players like Conor Coady for 2.5m, George Saville, Tommy Rowe etc. Mendes has a decent reputation in football for this line of work. The bar is quite low at Wolves for signing decent players at the moment so I think most of us will happily welcome his involvement.

No club has a anywhere near a perfect transfer record, in fact if you looked at most teams the principle seems to be sign as many as possible and hope for an upgrade.

Answer your tweets!!

Ha, sorry only just seen it, I rarely go on that account as mainly use our podcasts one. I am starting to think Wednesday fans rival Wolves fans in the precious stakes! you have some right special cases on Twitter.

Jez Moxey looks like he's heading to be our new CEO. Any thoughts on him Wolves fans?

Jesus I feel sorry for you. Literally the most toxic person we have had at our club in my lifetime. Most people are happy that we have been taken over purely to get rid of that parasite.

On a plus side he'll get a good transfer fee for selling any of your players, the bad side is he'll pocket any of the cash for himself. You'll see a fraction of it reinvested into your club.

His worst act as CEO at Wolves? Too many to count, but personally the lowest moment for was selling out our home stand (the South Bank) to West Brom fans in an FA Cup game and trying to make up for it by giving the fans a free pie and pint to compensate for the move. It's the equivalent of Liverpool giving Man Utd fans the whole Kop stand and gettimg smashed 3-0 by them. Most fans still don't forgive Moxey for that.

Ask Stoke fans, or even Glasgow Rangers fans how they felt about him and you'll get the same response. How he's wormed his way onto the FA board is beyond me.

Other than that, good luck!

Sorry mate, it is awful news for any club to be lumbered with him. He has been getting dogs abuse every home game of recent years and justifiably so. Getting rid of the fat parasite is better news to Wolves fans than any possible transfer news we could have got from this takeover.

His only decent quality is he's a good businessman, and will get good transfer fees for your players. Sadly at Wolves whenever we sold a player for a decent price we never saw the whole sum reinvested into the club, or anything close to it.

He's not hard to miss by the way, look for the fat prick who parks his Ferrari outside Carrow Road with his name engraved on the licence plate.

I know the history of him and why people hate him but I'm merely indifferent to him, he is just a weaselly little money man, probably similar to a few other clubs have.

He was one of the highest paid C.E.Os in football too. He got us some great deals on players though, especially when we got relegated (the first time) I remember hearing that the reason we lowered our price for Steven Fletcher to £14 million was because he got the fee in one single payment, lots of Wolves fans hate him and call him a greedy fat bastard despite the fact he's not as fat as them.

Sorry but you must be living in some sort of dream land if you think he is similar to other CEO's. Doubt you'll find any Wolves fans that will agree with you there.

Wonder who Wolves will go to now with Lopetegui doing a runner. They'll probably appoint some flash foreigner but I'd get Steve Bruce to be honest. If backed properly, I'd be surprised if he didn't get you up within two seasons. It only took him one season at Hull when Alam backed him back in 2012/13.

Despite his links to Birmingham I'd have Steve Bruce in a heartbeat. He nearly joined when we were relegated from the PL in 2012, but for a number of reasons it didn't happen. He has a great record in this league too.

Sadly I reckon he'll rejoin Sunderland now Big Sam has left.

The main reason he didn't join was our dickhead fans wasn't it? I thought there was so much uproar that the mighty Wolves were daring to sully ourselves with Bruce that Morgan got cold on the idea, then we got strung along by Curbishly and ended up with Connor in charge.

Yeah I heard a few angry fans phoned BBC radio WM to say they wouldnt renew their season tickets if we got Steve Bruce. I really hope that wasn't the only reaaon and it was something more substantial.

The again Morgan was triggered into selling the club over shouting match in Deepdale carpark with a few drunk Wolves/Preston fans so god knows.

Apparently they've got Moyes lined up so you may have a good shout. I'd be surprised to see him get a PL job tbh

Yeh... not the worst news in the world, I'm happy we finally got rid of Moxey. Jackett has always had to work with a strict budget at Wolves, so given a much more free reign regarding transfers will be a nice relief. Just hope he doesn't waste in on players like Conor bloody Coady.

I'm not one for claiming to be ITK but I have received some information today that would suggest Bruce to Wolves is very much on

Do you guys not rate Coady at all? It's still bring him up as one we should've stumped up the cash for

No, he's absolutely dreadful. Talentless lump, and his first touch is the worst I've seen from a professional footballer, ever.

I remember when we signed him he had a debut friendly vs someone and he looked like Claude Makalele in midfield, breaking up play with tackles and picking out 50 yard passes. Thought we had a bargain on our hands for 2.5m.

Since then as Matt says he has been dreadful. A walking red card.

Negligence if your actually keeping Jackett and giving him transfer money to spend when Bruce is out of work and probably more than willing to come. Makes no sense that.
