Bet Paul Tamworth is buzzing! Kenny has been sacked.



30 Jul 2016 00:01:02
Sure am mate, well done Big Jeff! Onwards and Upwards from now on! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸΊπŸΊπŸΊπŸΊπŸΊπŸΊπŸΊπŸΊπŸΊπŸΊ let's get the party started! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘.



30 Jul 2016 00:36:41
And as I stated, Sheff Weds would be JACKETTS last league game in charge? To all the doubters! Do one! Thankyou and Goodnight! Well done Big Jeff πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘.



30 Jul 2016 00:44:21
Paul,

You da man.

Payback is a bitch,

Well done boy, stuck to your guns, just remember who covered your back.
πŸ‘πŸ˜ŒπŸ‘.



30 Jul 2016 06:06:50
Stu were all Wolves on here, some are a little slower to see things than others! πŸ˜‚ But I know who my ally's are mate and appreciate πŸ™. But now we can move on with a blank canvass and create something special. I'm definitely not missin a game this season, roll on Rotherham! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘ But today is all about Sir Jack.



30 Jul 2016 06:28:50
Agree Paul, a day to reflect on what Sir Jack did for Wolves.
Made us proud to be Wolves, amazing guy who put us back on the map.

What sort of attendance are we expecting today?



30 Jul 2016 07:05:36
I'd like to think 10k+, pity it wasn't the baggies would of been full for the man!



29 Jul 2016 23:31:47
Kenny Jackett gone. Contract terminated with immediate effect. Who's coming in?



29 Jul 2016 23:46:03
Dont think it will be a engish one mate. could be bruce but I think not.



29 Jul 2016 23:47:02
I'm in, fookin ace. We're silly rich and we know we are.
I love Jeff Shi.



29 Jul 2016 23:49:00
I feel a bit sorry for him, was let down by Morgan and Moxey, no investment was always going to make life difficult. Think he would be out of his depth now with the team Fosun are trying to build and its probably better he has been put out of his misery sooner rather than later.



29 Jul 2016 23:53:51
hope its steve bruce.



29 Jul 2016 23:55:28
Please not Steve Bruce!



30 Jul 2016 00:18:14
I get the impression that Bruce isn't up to Jeff Shi's standard Dappa. Marco Silva is where my money
would go.



30 Jul 2016 00:50:30
Yes mate 100% wonts 2 do it his way.



29 Jul 2016 23:25:00
kenny jackets contract terminated |||||.



29 Jul 2016 23:26:04
Kenny Gone!



29 Jul 2016 23:33:43
Suppose this gives the AVB rumour legs!



29 Jul 2016 23:23:27
Jacketts been sacked. I already told you this days ago. listen to felixthecat. meowwwww.



29 Jul 2016 23:26:50
Got to hand it to you Felix. New head coach lined up AVB?



29 Jul 2016 23:29:19
Where did this come from, another step in the right direction, happy days.



29 Jul 2016 23:37:06
I am told Silva and Bruce will be having talks. its a 2 horse race.



29 Jul 2016 23:47:39
Official Wolves. Marco Silva.



29 Jul 2016 23:20:59
Jacket has been relieved of his duties tonight.



29 Jul 2016 22:36:29
An interesting week in our history the magical mystery tour has begun.
Reading through the banter and rumours pages I wonder what would please some of our supporters.

Facts, Moxeys gone, can't be bad for a start, Costa in, not a statement of intent but should help strengthen the squad. On loan so if don't cut the mustard bye bye at xmas.

Speculation, where to begin,
1) the manager. KJ struggled last year without the investment, worse, the fact he played players out of position and had questionable tactics and lacked a plan B. Were now linked with AVB yet some fans are still not happy.

2) Talisca, if it happens It will not just smash out transfer record but the divisions. Is he worth it Benfica fans split only time will tell. With the old regime even talking about something like thisthis would have probably led to arrest on charges of substance abuse.

3) The coming season. Without decent foundations nothings going to last long. Our squad is far too weak so I welcome loans or even a couple of Bosmans, Ince and Irwin did the job back in 2011.

4) Fosun our new owners are a very successful company with a huge bankroll and i'm sure they will do everything to secure their investment. We're not pleased when alledged signings seem to be delayed, I don't think it pleases them either.

The season is nearly upon us and I'm sure they are doing all they can.
So strap in the Magical mystery tour has begun.



29 Jul 2016 23:05:49
Mathmo, at last someone talking sense. Instead of the "I've got a mate who know a bloke who's mate knows someone". Everything you've said makes sense. For way too many years now, the wolves faithful- and we ARE faithful, have been lied to, deceived and short changed. At long last, (hopefully), we have owners and people onboard who want what WE want.

Quality football on the pitch, and ultimately, success as a club. For year after year I've stood, sat! (Occasionally), in the South, constantly feeling let down by the club I love. Maybe, hopefully, those days are gone, and we can once again be proud of our club. As you rightly say, it won't happen over night.

Let's get behind the new board, the new team and maybe new coach, and show them what this clubs fans are really like. We know it, let's show them. We ARE wolves, and proud of it.



29 Jul 2016 23:12:15
I think your will find Irwin and ince was 2003 mate.



29 Jul 2016 23:25:43
I've been a Wolves fan since the late 50's, never been a season ticket holder as I live 220 miles away and until retirement never had the time or resources or the reason with the recent dross parading as footballers at the Mol. Used to try to get to 4 or 5 games in per year but that stopped a couple of years ago. Now I've got the time and the reason, just need to find the resources. suppose 2 out of 3 ain't bad.



29 Jul 2016 23:31:58
Sorry adam, typo error July 1st 2002 to be precise.



29 Jul 2016 23:44:46
😳 lol.



29 Jul 2016 20:42:53
With compton closed to public how long b4 someone tries get video footage via a drone also one photo of costa training was right infront players on pitch no way it public photo more like staff was far too in focus and cose for member off public - closing compton is just cover for huge siging to come did see link to guy at real madrid but it gone now also heaing kj could stepdown to #2 when new manager comes in could be marco silva or avb so expect ex man city boss too pop up ( kj story was on twitter v early today said he act as interim till new gaffer settled in so be this season at most if true )



29 Jul 2016 20:21:16
First post on here. Happy days ahead at The Mol. For the first time in how many years, we may actually have a season to look forward to.
Have been reading with interest all the players AND coaches we are being linked with. If only half actually sign, the future could be brighter than our seats!



{Ed007's Note - Welcome aboard mate.}

29 Jul 2016 20:14:46
Sorry not excited by signings .



29 Jul 2016 21:29:32
If you're not excited now, it's time to give up. Heard about "glass half empty" syndrome, but this one was completely drained long ago.



29 Jul 2016 20:07:15
AVB! AVB!

BEFORE ROTHERHAM. AVB!



29 Jul 2016 20:13:20
No way.



29 Jul 2016 20:19:48
This is actually true lol. Again in an article coming out of Portugal minutes ago all but confirmed his arrival before being deleted.

Expect it to return online before you go to sleep.



29 Jul 2016 21:58:44
I'm going to bed now still ain't seen anything.



29 Jul 2016 19:48:40
Can you pay on the gate tomorrow thanks.



29 Jul 2016 20:43:40
I think so but be early.



29 Jul 2016 19:21:32
If we do sign Talisca he probably won't be available for a month or so depending on how Brazil do in the Olympics.



29 Jul 2016 19:28:41
Jackett will loan him out anyway.



29 Jul 2016 20:43:15
I didn't think he was in the squad for the Olympic team, may be wrong though.



29 Jul 2016 18:39:12
Does anyone believe talisca is going to sign interested to know?



29 Jul 2016 19:02:09
I'm on the fence, no.



29 Jul 2016 19:04:11
Apparantley its a done deal, just waiting for work permit confermation. To many stories and rumours for it not to be true now.
Now go get Glenn Hoddle back as manager, I no not popular with some, but he'd get the best out of these new signings and a big name players will look up to.

Jeff bring back the liqudator.



29 Jul 2016 19:05:10
I think he probably already has πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘.



29 Jul 2016 19:07:09
Photo on Facebook of him at Birmingham airport.



29 Jul 2016 19:58:01
That was earlier this month.



29 Jul 2016 22:13:24
Does seem strange that liverpool seem to have stopped reporting on this story & what little they are reporting does seem indicate he joining us.



29 Jul 2016 18:21:13
Remember who broke the news about Costa and Silvio signing and also told you Pele wouldn't be signing before it came on the media ;)
Felixthecat meowwww.



29 Jul 2016 18:28:36
You said he was injured.



29 Jul 2016 18:30:06
Felix to prove your the Top ITK poster tell us who our new manager is going to be before Tipton does?



29 Jul 2016 19:02:17
Marco Silva.



29 Jul 2016 20:47:08
I agree Realist he is the best choice from the names mentioned imo. avb said in an artical he would not come back to coach in England dispite his name being linked today apparently although I have not seen anything to confirm or deny it.



29 Jul 2016 21:29:18
I told you Pele would not be signing and as true as god he aint.



29 Jul 2016 17:04:59
Wolves have now shut training ground to stop people taking photos interesting.



29 Jul 2016 16:18:43
With Compton now closed to the public sounds like a few more signings definitely in the pipeline.



29 Jul 2016 18:55:17
Something is happening hope it's big.



29 Jul 2016 15:52:42
So Leeds being lined up to be bought out by Chinese consortium - they say going cost Β£60m -and would need top up over Β£100m to make them half decent - then u got forest trying get bought by a Greek billionaire who used own olympiarkos fc but he a well shady character according to the media - so even though we cost less than both those clubs been valued at we a bargain no debts and owned by respectable company role on happy days.



29 Jul 2016 15:16:52
Wolves twitter - Helder Costa has been confirmed.



29 Jul 2016 16:01:17
E&S have also confirmed. That's one (loan) down. Perhaps Stearman is next.



29 Jul 2016 16:36:24
Don't want Stearman back. We should be looking to the future not looking back.



29 Jul 2016 17:05:04
We should be looking at strength in depth and if that means getting Stearman back then so be it.



29 Jul 2016 15:10:37
sportwitness.co.uk states talisca flying in today last few bits to sort out then will be a wolves player.



29 Jul 2016 14:37:29
KJ must still be involved in transfers. Sky Sports Today have just mentioned Derby and Wolves have made enquires for Stearman. Next it will be he wants McDonald back! Its worrying that's reached Sky but naff all else! I never agree with players coming back, if they wanted to go, they stay gone. Perhaps Stearman is the surprise signing, the only signing. Come on Wolves we can do better than that!



29 Jul 2016 16:48:56
I'm not entirely sure Stears is the sort of player we need now, as much as I rated him. To be fair I don't think he wanted to go either.



29 Jul 2016 17:41:48
Maybe Jacket didn't want him to go in the first place.



29 Jul 2016 14:08:58
Getting a bit fed up with this what is going on?



29 Jul 2016 14:22:26
Photos on Facebook.



29 Jul 2016 14:01:42
Signings to be revealed in the lineup for the Swansea game perhaps? Usually a squad has been announced for the friendlies by now.



29 Jul 2016 14:08:19
I agree I think deals are all ready done what better way and tribute to sir jack than to announce signings tomorrow get crowd buzzing for new season.



29 Jul 2016 14:38:30
Yea but you would announce they have signed BEFORE, then you sell more tickets!



29 Jul 2016 12:03:30
Ok guys,

Just been told that there are as many as 4 deals that are basically complete. The new owners are relishing the attention and speculation surrounding Wolves at the moment and this will add to the growth of their fame in the footballing world.

The tension around management and new signings is creating a lot of buzz not only for Wolves fans but for football fans. Therefore once their transfer targets have signed on the dotted line, the media and speculation will already be sky high and the top stars due to be joining will only add fuel to the fire.

Fosun want to be a global force, and this is exactly how they intend to go about their business, as frustrating as it may be, it's a very clever tactic from the new owners but only if it pays off! Kick off is getting ever closer, but a company like Fosun and all their billions they have earned, didn't make such a success of themselves without impeccable business tactics.

Me personally I think this is already amazing work by Fosun and long may it continue!



29 Jul 2016 13:26:16
& who are the 4, Tipton? If true, the PR value and awareness will be sky high, but let's hope not at the expense of football on the pitch. Playesr need time to gel.
Rumours that Costa and Silvio have been spotted and photographed training at Compton - if true that's good news, at least they're with their 'new' teammates.



29 Jul 2016 13:56:01
Photos of Costa and Silvio on We are Wolves Facebook site.



29 Jul 2016 13:58:18
Held Costa, Silvio, training at wolves?



29 Jul 2016 15:27:50
But no official statements or conferences, just a loanee, the actual transfers who will mould our future are yet to be mentioned.

As for the manager, Kenny Jackett has been tipped to demote himself to assistant manager to help the transition that takes wolves onto another level. Another piece of impeccable business tactics applied by Fosun, bringing in their new man and keeping Kenny Jackett on to keep the change as smooth as possible. With the name iv been sworn to, fans will be equally in complete shock and in ecstacy! Kenny as number two **** *** ********* as our main man! Wow!



29 Jul 2016 16:23:39
Stop teasing Tipton, if u can't say the name say when?



29 Jul 2016 18:11:21
Vincent del Bosque doesn't quite fit neither does Marco van Basten who else has 3 names Sven Goren Erikson or Jimmy Floyd Hasselbank perhaps give up.



29 Jul 2016 18:31:28
LVG ex Utd?



29 Jul 2016 18:40:04
Kenny demoting himself to assistant haha get a grip, stop teasing us, you said bruce was coming last week with aluko and hangeland, I smell bs!



29 Jul 2016 18:46:22
Rip Van Winckel.



29 Jul 2016 18:36:43
WindowWolf,
Maybe it's one you missed with 3 names
Louis Van Gaal?



29 Jul 2016 12:06:54
What takeover? Same CEO manager, etc depleted squad with obvious deficiencies, slow progress on transfer targets so that they fall through or other clubs beat us to the deal. One week on and Fosuns profits rise by 4 times what they paid for WWFC and no movements in, no I will not be there for the Swansea game. The lights going dimmer back into the darkness?



29 Jul 2016 12:43:17
And its not been a week yet.



29 Jul 2016 13:16:07
Hednesford,
Cheer up mate. We've just had the biggest event to happen in Wolves' history and you're talking about back to darkness? The CEO is leaving to work for Norwich, didn't you hear? Transfers take time. Fosun have owned us for less than a week.



29 Jul 2016 13:19:17
Stop your whining. Things will happen when they happen. No point crying over it.



29 Jul 2016 13:38:06
These things take time you know.



29 Jul 2016 11:30:37
Headline in today's E and S: "Dave Edwards welcomes Fosun to Wolves". Well that must be a HUGE relief for Jeff Shi and his colleagues!



29 Jul 2016 12:00:34
Dangerous Dave
The Euros have gone to his head, he will struggle if we buy the players we are looking at buying.



29 Jul 2016 11:28:33
We urgently need to buy/ loan some proven goal scorers. We're only a week away from the start of the season and Mason is our only recognised 'striker' available. I'm not convinced he will score goals. Last season we were absolutely pathetic in that area.

What wins games. GOALS!



29 Jul 2016 12:00:23
Totally agree.



29 Jul 2016 11:17:56
Nothing has changed then still same old wolves dilly dally that much then lose out on targets 1 week is plenty of time to sign a player even more so when your a billionare.



29 Jul 2016 11:34:17
The activity has slowed, the banter is also going quiet
It's the nervous anticipation of something being announced
Still not one official signing all week
Small crowd here watching Tottenham v Athletico Madrid.



29 Jul 2016 11:47:57
Well there is one constant in all of this dilly dallying and that is Moxey. Does that explain the delay?



29 Jul 2016 11:56:59
Makes you think what's going on, if we kick off with these players and do not add to the team we will be a laughing stock and we will get relegated to sell McDonald before a replacement seams odd to me and the strikers which we so badly need were are they we are cutting it short to say the least wakey, wakey Wolves let's get some players in.



29 Jul 2016 13:14:02
A week is not plenty of time to bring players in. There's more to it than that. They won't know their team mates, manager, league, style of play (lol) and will probably need translators.

We are not going to hit the ground running. It's not as though we already have a decent squad. We need a lot of additions and will need time to bed in. We can all speculate but at the moment we are not aware anyone has signed. Come on Wolves, get the ball rolling now!
PS. I am not being negative, just realistic. Just hope I am very wrong.



29 Jul 2016 10:52:10
I thought before the takeover was announced that they had left it fairly late and that we wouldn't go up this year but would next year. But to be honest we're acting slower than I thought we would on transfers.

There's 2 reasons I believe for this:
1. Waiting to complete a marquee signing to announce with them

2. Waiting for a new manager to come in and choose the players (even though they said they're backing KJ. I just can't see it from his body language and how he's been hidden from media recently)



29 Jul 2016 11:05:36
if you had to choose one prem youngster to take on loan who would it be and why? loftus cheek from chelsea for me sitting just behind dicko and whoever else up top, quick tall dynamic has it all.



29 Jul 2016 11:25:36
Loftus Cheek is part of their first squad though isn't he?
For me personnally, though not quite a 'youngster' anymore, but Mason or Bentaleb from Spurs. Apparently Spurs don't want Bentaleb and he's got real potential.



29 Jul 2016 10:00:20
Don't promise if you can't deliver. Either Pele wants to come or not. We must not be beholden to Mendes to run our club. There are plenty of players out there. Some foreign talent would be nice if they can adapt but this season we are going to have to dig in and show commitment and try to improve the lads we have by putting more skill in the team.

Once we have a firm footing we can go up another level. We are all full of giddy excitement at the moment but we are a week away from the season starting, Kenny is locked in a cupboard somewhere and god knows what the lads we do have are thinking and feeling.

I am as excited as anyone but I'm thinking realistically that to get a new raft of players and mould old and new into a fighting force is going to take time and inspired management. And patience from us.



29 Jul 2016 08:59:49
Honestly the way you lot are going on it sounds like we are going to spend Β£100 million!

Chill out, and lower your expectations.

Unless the core of our team is experienced championship players, and unless we nail down the coach situation - this season could be a bigger mess than last year!

And you've got to ask the question - why would Moxey leave after all these years if we really have reached "the promised land"? Doesn't make any sense at all - unless he fundamentally disagrees with FOSUN's intended approach.

Could be an interesting/ exciting year - I just don't won't people expecting us to assemble a "world XI" and win the championship by 40 points.

There are MANY teams in this division much better prepared and set up for the season ahead.

Just a reality check.



29 Jul 2016 10:05:01
Very true jez.



29 Jul 2016 10:18:32
Are you jez in disguise?



29 Jul 2016 10:06:30
Because money is a yes man, these new owners want someone strong dynamic. Unlike him, but I do agree with what you say about the, transfers. ;-)



29 Jul 2016 10:21:37
People are excited because this is new mate and deep down most of them know it ain't going to be a walk in the park. let's just wait and see, happy days.



29 Jul 2016 10:43:32
Hello real World.

Jeff Shi to Moxey, well Jizz, youv'e completely **** this club over these last 16 long years with your underhanded and dodgy deals. (Name and address witheld to protect the hard of hearing)

You can either resign and stand down, or your sacked, which is it?
We will play the game with the media the same as with KJ but your choice Jizz.

That's what happens in the real a World where Jeff Shi lives.



29 Jul 2016 08:54:28
Anyone who wouldn't take sako back is crazy. we need quality game changers! ;-)



29 Jul 2016 06:55:52
Why would Moxey bust a gut to rush transfers through for quality players given he is going to Norwich?
Does anyone get the feeling we are waiting for Steve Bruce to get back from holiday to announce him as Managrr?



29 Jul 2016 00:40:59
We're only paying €2m euros pelΓ© so is bargain basement as well πŸ˜‚.



29 Jul 2016 06:45:10
Hi Matt how do you come by this info?
