Ed) I do not believe some of these guys we have just made approx £16.5 mil on two transfers.
Jarvis bought £500 000 sold £10 mil. Fletch bought £7mil sold £14 mil. Just won 3:1 and a convincing win, and guys come on and winge.
Ed I am a mental health counsellor if I can be of any help to these guys just let me know.

RBB

COME ON YE WOLVES {Ed011's Note - Some people just enjoy being negative, they always try to find the problems.

You might be a mental health counsellor but you dont know anything about finance obviously. Have Burnley and Gillingham given up their 15%? Has Jarvis given up his 10%? Have Sunderland and West Ham decided to pay the add on fees now?

I think today is a massive day in the future of wolves, best thing the club could have done was sell these two and bring in players stale wants.

Agreed, just look at the players Stale has bought in for far, agueably our best players in the first two matches.....

... cant wait to see what he does with some real money to spend :)

Heard a new rumour on my bin roun this morning Forman unnamed source.

Jamie mackie - QPR - 6.5m

Direct replacement for matt Jarvis. Remember you heard this here first.

Derrick ( the secret wolve )

Nobody with any sanity would spend £6.5m on Jamie Mackie. I also doubt we'll spend more than £4-5m on one single player this season. The £2.4m we spent on BBS is a very large amount for a Championship club remember!

I dont think for a second the people we will sign will be player already playing in england neither.

Mills wolf

I've also heard this to, but apparently it's not just Jamie mackie for 6.5m it's 2 players included, one is Jamie and the other Is ' michael doughty'.
this is from a good source also so I believe you are halfway right Derrick ( the secret wolve )

Pistol Pete ( wolve man )

You sure its not Cardiff who are after these QPR players? They seem 2 be signing all there surplus players at the moment. Lol.

Before you all start going over the top we now have to reinvest in our team if we want to regain our place in the division where we belong.I DO NOT EXPECT THE CLUB TO BANKRUPT ITSELF.but please please dont come out will the usual wolves lines Mr Moxey ,Such as the transfers dragged on so long we were not able to get players in etc etc lets use this money wisely to become a force not to build another stand !

Anybody sin me ead need it for a medical

23 Aug 2012 20:09:50
Well it took its time but if we had sold earlier we wouldn't have got so much .need to re invest now in at least 2 players this will show supporters that the board want to bounce back..Locallad

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. First saw him on fifa(11) and i bought him for us thought he was class so i looked on youtube and hes a good player from what i have seen. I know your all gonna be like WTF fifa and youtube but seriously take a look at him. I think if we could get him he would be a good replacement for fletch. What are your thoughts? I have known about him for about 2 years but never said anythin cause i thought he'd be at a top team by now but i saw a comment on here earlier and thought why not.

TDW

Given that 95% of african strikers are poor, no thanks. {Ed011's Note - Bollocks! Drogba, Sameul Eto'o, Asamoah Gyan, Odemwingie, Moussa Sow, Demba Ba, Papiss Demba Cisse, Andre Ayew, Ya Konan. That's just the obvious ones too!

Lets get the Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang band wagon rolling!! Lets get the rumours going! He would be awesome for us and a good partner for BBS once they were both settled. They'd destroy Championship defences!

Your an person!

Really ed, some of those names are a little desperate, how many great african strikers has there been, i mean great, consistant strikers? Drogba, Eto'o, after that it is slim pickings, odemwingie, so good he wasted away in ukraine, demba ba had a good 4 months so too early to say. {Ed011's Note - I just think it's to far to say that 95% of African strikers are poor.

Anyway, my point is that we would be better off signing the likes of henderson, fryatt, nugent, chopra than some random africans who rarely deliver. I know those guys are not exciting but they score goals consistantly year on year.

Lol George Weah wasn't a bad striker either !!

AW

Isn't this 'Wolves Rumours' not 'Name A Player on FIFA'?

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang?

It would cost more to have his name on ya shirt than the shirt itself.

Newark Wolf.

...He would rather have David Nugent than Demba Ba. Are you Mick McCarthy in disguise?!?

Ed I have heard of the others on your list but who is b*******? {Ed011's Note - I laughed. Sorry guys I over reacted and said a naughty word.

...He would rather have David Nugent than Demba Ba. Are you Mick McCarthy in disguise?!?

Oh - what about Adebayor too? Surely he's better than Fryatt?

Ali Dia was the best of the lot {Ed007's Note - Roger Milla, Tony Yeboah, Abdi Pele, Kanu, Adebayor, Okacha, Kanoute.......there are plenty of top quality African players.

Whos that new guy we have in the middle of the park again? doumbia thats him i wonder where he's from? Africa to judge a player on their country is stupid one of the big reasons we dont see lots of great african players is because africa is a greatly ignored continent(by scouts) considering its size and the fact its poor cause they would rather look at players from europe and the uk but what have english players done since 66? so yeah lets stick with the british players who have got us no where as a club really. im not saying we should sign loads of african players but this one looks quality and its unlikely we will be getting an english player of the same caliber as him whilst were in the championship.

Roger milla. But I agree Pierre Emerick Aubameyang would be a good signing. Not only for Fletcher but Jarvis aswell played on the wing in African nations cup. The only problem is Norwich are after him arent they ed. {Ed011's Note - Not sure but wouldn't be surprised, although we have the Solbakken effect.

I disagree that most African players are poor. You lot have given a list of great examples to argue against that opinion. But who remembers that great world cup clip of the African team defending a free kick and someone runs out the wall and huffs the ball down the pitch. Most Africans are very disadvantaged back in Africa when it comes to football no proper pitchs or facilities they play barefoot on sand not really grass roots is it with all the nurchering our kids receive.

I never said there were not a few good ones, but i reckon we have covered them and reached about 20, as i say 95% would not be good signings. Anyone care to name me 10 africans who have scored 50 goals in england? {Ed011's Note - There aren't that many people who have scored 50 goals in England, Drogba is probably the only African to, but based on that you already don't want an African player? It doesn't matter where they're from he could be the next Messi still.

I am willing to take bets aubameyang has a largely anonymous career. The list of promising africans is endless, they have power and pace but seem to lack know how, you could add defenders to that list, very few great african defenders. For me the african players seem best suited to being great midfield engines.

The guy is clearly a racist coming from a white man

The reason the guy ran out of the wall to kick the ball was because the team had been told theyd be disgraced and possibly killed if they returned home without any points. Equally to prove a point think of chris samba - epic african centre back proven in england. also in his time Kolo Toure wasnt bad or his brother (i am aware he isnt a defender). Then again if the twonk who said that 95% of african plays were rubbish watched any other leagues such as the french/italian or spanish leagues hed know that he was talking out of his arse. plenty of african talent on show in those leagues such as andre ayew or his brother jordan. Finally Seydou Keita played for many seasons at barcelona, any english player since lineker able to do that?

Can't make my mind up about ward!! One game he's all over the place next game he's a quality attacking lb... Summed up perfectly by the two opening games this season! Never sat on the fence over a player so much
Mikey

Ward will change his game this season if you have seen how johan lange shouted at him to do what hes gotta then i reckon hell be a great attacking lb but now jarvo gone ill be glad to see the ball played round the field more other than the left flank..
SuperWolfie

I think the thing is Barnsley didn't offer much attacking threat to show Ward's frailties.

We know Ward can play LB, LM and ST. Jarvis is leaving so why not get a LB and stick Ward LM he's much better going forward. He can also provide cover in defence.

TWOLF

I agree and all of the Ward haters haven't got to worry about him making mistakes at the back.

Get ur head the clouds peeps ,,barnsley were just plain awful ,they would have made stearman look good..
Jarvis will miss Ward cos it was Ward who linked up well with him and Jarvis reaped the benefit not that im saying ward is good cos he aint {Ed011's Note - How could you be more negative after a win for God's sake?!

I don't think we should change his position again keep him at lb and bring in another lb for cover you cant have him play 40+ games cause thats when the haters get ammo cause if you play every game in a season your gonna make mistakes

Well he made 3 large mistakes in the first game, all there for people to see on the highlights reel.

He strike me as a player that when were doing alright and looking to press forward he's class, but when were on the back foot he seems to panic abit.

Reports of Swiss Centre Back ,Ricardo Rodriguez being seen at Compton. After a 2m bid was accepted.The swiss currently plays for wolfsburg and impressed Stale Solbakken when Rodriguez(19 years old) made his debut against Fc Koln where he kept a clean sheet and from there became a favourite of the wolfsburg manager ,Felix Magath.

He's a left back

You seen him play? He's a left back!

Ricardo Rodríguez (born 25 August 1992) is a footballer from Switzerland who currently plays as left back for VfL Wolfsburg in the Fußball-Bundesliga. He's born to a Spanish father and a Chilean mother.
In 2009 he was part of the Swiss U-17 team who won the 2009 FIFA U-17 World Cup.
Rodríguez joined VfL Wolfsburg on 20th January 2012 and made his Bundesliga debut against FC Koln. He played every game of the season from that point on, becoming a favorite on the left of the defence for Felix Magath. He was never subbed off.

NOT A CENTRE BACK!

Barcelona was after him in 2011

Really can't see Magath letting him go. If we do get him that will be a fantastic signing! Another coup for Stale!

Total rubbish he only signed for wolfsburg in jan 2012 for 7.5m euros

He's a left back!! oh my stars, halle-bledin-lujah, sign him up now!!

Why would he come to wolves, 2nd tier football, low wages. Great if it happened but think report is rubbish

No it's true 100 %

I hope its true, but seems unbelievable, would be a move in the right direction and a signal of intent

If it's true it's incredible and means we've spent significant money. He is one of 8 transfers in to Wolfsburg in the winter window and played every game. They spent reportedly between 6 & 8 m euros, so we would have to have gone up considerably to pull him away from Felixstowe Magath. Got to say it doesn't sound likely.

I definitely did not type in Felixstowe! But maybe it's an indication of the rumour being fishy (groan)!

Ok so Fletcher and Jarvis have gone! We move on! No point crying about it! They will regret it by Easter and wish they had stayed! There has been plenty of talk about potential Jarvis replacements but I've heard no mention of replacements for Fletcher! Now I know some will mention Rhodes and other up and coming strikers but Rhodes I think is too similar to SEB. Who are we going to get in to score us 25 goals to get us up and how much will he cost!

The replacements not additionals were brought in earlier.
The icelander and Frank spring to mind.
Fletcher was always going to go. It's why these players were brought in.

We need another striker that will net prolifically. BBS will be quality as the season progresses , we need goals a game now though!

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from St Etienne. 6ft 1, strong, quick and got 16 goals in a mid table team last year. He's quality. £4 or £5 million at the most would get him I reckon!

So what abou seb 2 golden boots and 2 in 3 this season.

In reply to the post on sebs 2 golden boots in 3 seasons - how many goals has he scored for the past 3 seasons? We need a striker we know who can score, seb is not reliable neither is Doyle and nouble. Bbs is not proven is the english league so cannot be attributed as a prolific goalscorer. We need a proper goalscorer to replace fletcher, and we need to sort our the defence!

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Was thinking of the same guy! he looks class

SEB has a better goals to minutes ratio than doylew and not much less than fletchers up til this season. If you do not play, you cannot score, SEB is a natural goalscorer and will hit 20 this season given games.

Just got picked up from Birmingham airport ,taxi driver has just dropped of wolves ajent ,who was going to meet Swiss centre half to take to Compton for medical ( do know players name )

Djourou by any chance ??

Senderos ?

You know the players name? Please tell!

Ricardo Rodriguez me thinks ,could be .up the wolves

You should of asked the driver to describe the chap, would of made it easier, well if it was rodriquez anyway.

Whats that smell, is it horse? dog, aardvark, no its bull sheet

I know for a fact because the driver picked us up from airport today ( wednesfield cabs ) and I promise ya this is 100% true ,no rubbish ,next couple of days ,watch!!!!!

Why would wolfsburg sign him in jan for 7.5m euros and then we buy him for 2m.got more chance of messi signing

Lol taxi driver source.

He picked him up and took him to Compton ground ,also seen there by other fans at Compton trust stale !!!!!

Fair play mate you were right, but he is Austrian not swiss. Can we stop being so harsh on people who post rumours on here. If we all keep ripping on the people who decide to post then whats the point in the page ?

Mills wolf

Thanx m8 , told ya !!!

wolves want robbie brady from utd for 1.2million

Hope so , he done fantastic with Hull last season, he seems to be be a real prospect for the future.
Gibo #headsgone

What position does he play? Cant say i watched Hull much last ssn. (forgive my ignorance. Lol.) {Ed011's Note - Winger

Cheers Ed..

wolves accepted the bid from west ham for jarvis(10m) jarvis has had a medical tonight! also his wife put on twitter than she might have to pack so thats strengthens my point

Can live with Fletcher leaving. He was professional on the pitch but he never showed that he loved Wolves. Feel we have enough up front anyway. Gutted with Jarvis.

I'm not saying that Jarvis isn't going to move (he is) but the reason his wife needs to pack is because she and some of the other Wolves Wags are off on holiday together.

They've gone we've got great money for them! Hopefully a few more will follow them! So get over it!! It's time for the Stale Revolution! Get rid of McCarthys Muppets!!

Jarvis is not a MM muppet though

TDW

He's gone get over it! 10+mil, superb business!!

23 Aug 2012 10:02:20
Fletcher medical at Sunderland, Jarvis travelling to West Ham for talks. £20m+ for the pair.
With a week to go in the transfer window this really is the start of the Solbakken era, if for one am looking forward to it

I think the lad deserves prem football and has conducted himself correctly through all this. I hope luggy has a really nasty injury but good luck Matt.

Where has Jarvis behaved correctly but Berra not?

Jarvo never officially handed a request in, he only stated his wish's to leave to help him england career

I didn't mention Berra but Jarvis stated his desire to stay in the premier league he did not hand in a transfer request. It has been publicly stated Berra has been looking for a move since and including the last transfer window.

You want Luggy' (fletch) to get injured?) GROW UP!

23 Aug 2012 08:07:04
If the figures being touted are right then you have to give credit to old moon face. 14M for Fletcher and 10M for Jarvo is a good return on 2 players who are not prepared to stay. Kightly is a bit of a snake really but 3M for someone with his injury record is an excellent return. Let us reserve judgement until we can see how much is re-invested, TBH I don't think the championship is that strong if Leicester are clear bookies faves, we will see.

Ssn telling us we got 12m for Fletch the letch.... {Ed011's Note - Apparently it's £12m up front and a further £2m next year.

Wolves to sign vaz te from west ham
