Rumours on twitter that Famara Diédhiou, who was on loan at Clement Foot last season, could be on his way.

Hold on to your reins, if the e&s is right we've no funds unless we sell first. Third rate wages third rate performances. Third rate owner and ceo. Until some funds become available from somrwhere we'll be loaning and inexperienced again. Things ain't looking good.

Mocey quoted as saying we won't be able get best championship players - well we would if he didn't take his &500.000 wage out club and puts paid rumours ms going bank roll us don't it cause if were then getting best players be easy - we back to lower division and folk who we never heard off hoping we discover another sako.



27 May 2016 10:39:46
Abby wolf we have funds it's just not enough for us to be looking at top half/ premier league we'll be looking at players relegated with Charlton& Bolton the names that stand out from those 2 clubs and probably abroad because they won't coast much either.

Seen we've been linked to another senegal international moussa konate. Konate is very much like Dicko and looks like Famara Diédhiou is more of a target man being 6 '4' and we know jacketts been after a big striker ever since the legend that is leon clarke left! .

I think we should sell McDonald for £1m + and try our hardest to sign Lee Gregory from Milwall, or ask Cardiff kindly if we could return Mason for the £3m we wasted on him.

re yamyamrob it would put pay to rumours that MS are going to bank roll us, but we won't know for sure till we see what players we've really signed this summer. Whatever I'd bet on some young lower league / highly speculative players signed because seems to be our Academy policy. But we may also get some proper players too, and WWFC wouldn't let on about that till it's happened because of wanting to keep transfer prices down, it pays them to pretend their poor over summer when they're spending.

However, I have come to conclusion MS are probably not bank rolling us as is just terrible ordinary business, Moxey too defensive and bullish over it now, like he needs to convince us now it's ok because there isn't some good surprise, like big transfer spending coming up that will convince us later on.

I think a new owner asap is now only hope, not to necessarily to bin MS (at least this season / while we're in Champ) but to bin Moxey, him saying they'd still sign MS now, even after 13k petition and all the aggro / fan feedback, proves him a tyrant who has to go no matter what, we're losing our club to him.

The guy is just out look after his own interests instead clubs look at how he lines his pockets with the rent from property's he rents to players instead that £ being put back into the club everything he does is to benifit himself not ever in the interests of the club that pays his over inflated wages.

Ulf mate I thought you were off to Shrewsbury if MS were here to stay?

Re Tea-time as I said, I won't be supporting Moneyshop-Wolves this season (that is unless we get some assurance they'll review shirt sponsor if we get to Prem, and that we'll get a say over sponsor in 3yrs time like we didn't this time) .

I'm going to quietly lend my support to Shrews, and keep an eye out for news on a new owner and hope that can fix it. It's not permanently broken for me unless we were to be in Prem as Moneyshop-Wolves and end up with club and town branded to whole Nation as that. That's my driving overall fear, how Wonga became so connected with Blackpool for just 1 season in Prem. And that's my driving personal problem with it, it's conflicting with me wanting us getting promoted, so winning games etc. I've found I can't be anti the team and instinctively support, so will have to pretend Wolves isn't happening for now :-)

Fingers crossed for a decent new owner, or Morgan going the whole hog, he's had a heart, now apparently body transplant, just the brain to go, if he gets that might wake up to himself and clown that Moxey is making him look.



{Ed003's Note - how did wonga become so connected with Blackpool Ulf ? }

27 May 2016 20:52:35
Took over from somebody jewellery shop sponsors? Thing is ulf are you really saying you won't support the wolves because of their shirts? I have similar feelings on money shop, but I'm not going to let moxey and cheap dealings stop me from following my team. Turn your back and your giving in.



27 May 2016 22:45:18
Re Ed - in peoples minds - in my mind, Wonga immediately prompts Blackpool (club and then place) and vica versa, because of the year they spent in Prem on National TV with it, seen in at least 2 games by all the big clubs massive fanbases and others. I can't remember anyone's sponsors but never forgot Wonga Blackpool. And they may not even have had a real relationship, Wonga could have just used their shirt as advertising space, but really bad thing, they don't even need a real relationship, just a perceived association in peoples minds.

Places (like Blackpool that are struggling but have potential) spend tons trying to give themselves an improving, more positive healthy image to improve people's impulsive perception, to encourage shopping, tourism, etc, however tiny, it snowballs over time and it pushes the reality to catch up. It's a brand test to ask a group for example first 10 associations come to mind for a given brand or place - Blackpool would want quality / enticing stuff, not Wonga / pay day lender, because next could be struggling to make ends meet, bedsits, people out of work, boarded up shops, covered in litter etc. The impulsive mind is a prejudiced assuming place.

Hopefully though no one will notice us and Moneyshop though, I never noticed if Blackpool were Wonga when Champ, or like Hull apparently had Cash Converters in Champ. While Newcastle on other hand, have such a big strong established National identity (club and place, almost like NE regional capital) , Wonga didn't affect their identity in Prem. Wolverhampton is vulnerable like Blackpool though, a small side-water place with a fragile identity that needs help, not a burden.

Re abbeywolf, I'm saying it's so conflicting for me in terms of wanting the club and most of all team to do well, while not wanting the club doing well in case it puts us in Prem and on National TV as Moneyshop, and also not being able to handle Moxey's tyranny and not wanting him to do well, I'm going to have to close my eyes and count roughly 365 days, but keep an ear out for a new owner.



{Ed003's Note - A good post and I fully get where you are coming from, a lot of Blackpool fans took yours and the right moral thinking about them being a sponsor - this is from someone who has lived for nearly 47 years in the small side - water place that attracts 12 million visitors a year only second to London in the UK - as you say image probably is a lot to do with it from small minded/ignorant people.}

28 May 2016 03:13:54
If you mean Blackpool attracts 12million visitors a yr only second to London? I wouldn't be surprised as Liverpool and Manchester, and high repeat frequency for some within a year due to NorthWest day trips for the kids etc. I wonder though how many unique each year, and from outside of urban Northwest, and for whole weeks even rather than days or weekends? For shopping rather than hen nights? When I lived in Chester and worked in bank with approx 3k other people, don't know any who thought to go, although sure some did, but no particular draw.

Question is where their reach would be with a classier / deeper / more inclusive image, like Brighton (totally inclusive still) but who've steadily gone upmarket / inclusive and become increasingly popular / better off with greater reach. Blackpool has social issues for it's locals that it's not classy image compounds and to whatever degree the two feed off one another. I knew a couple who moved away from BPool after trying and failing to start business there 10 or 15 yrs ago, went on about bedsit land, benefit economy, run down, they reckoned no hope and were very sad about it. I saw afterwards on regional news they've been constantly pushing to improve and am sure they really have (pushing Victorian architecture, more cultural and classy, personally I think BPool is great) , but Wonga unnecessary, weight on wrong side of the scale for what rest of place was trying to achieve and convince rest of Country of.

And I'm no snob at all (if anything I'm a downsized / dropped out hippy) but I know how markets think / work, and everyone has assuming and associating prejudice in their impulse, it's how the mind works. To some degree, right or wrong, morality aside, being associated with a pay-day lender in the Nations mind would harm Wolverhampton's opportunities.

Football sponsors can only 'influence' football fans surely? And half of us pay no attention anyway. They only come in when someone takes the p***. Or when ee take the p***. Locally/ nationally they can mean that fans will buy a certain brand of car! Or drink a certain ale, but I can't see fans choosing to take a high rate loan on that basis. Flamingo land will be displayed at wembly tonight I don't even know who sponsor the otherlot but do associate them a certain supermarket! In the same as some welsh chap always ribs me about the 'batteries' being flat when bantering bout the gold top blacked bottomed wolves. Wolverhampton ain't got no pleasure beach. let's just get on with the football don't buy the shirt,



28 May 2016 06:06:16
And on that note who sponsors swansea.? I can't even remember who sponsor brum. You sure you're not on moneyshop marketing team Ulf, because you've given em more exposure evrtytime you post.



28 May 2016 06:20:12
Well said abbywolf it's all about the colour of the shirt not what's on it.
I'll always be wolves whoever is our sponsor and I'm sure everyone else bar ulf will be too.
Too much being read into moneyshop sponsorship it's done let's move on.



28 May 2016 09:47:19
I personally think that we should get jordan clark from shrewsbury. Or Gudmasson as I believe they could really help us in the bid for promotion.



28 May 2016 11:57:45
re Abbeywolf no I'm not on Moneyshops marketing team, though they clearly have a great one doing best for them, as this deal helps them at our expense. And me clarifying things here isn't pushing Moneyshop, I'm hardly advocating for them and not going to be seen by same reach of general public here with more hard core fans who make their own minds up, than on E&S where I've stopped having a go and pointing attention at them (although that wasn't advocating either, sure it embarrassed them) .

And I know Wolves has no pleasure beach, but it was (imo still is) a quality place with quality people, it was a centre for quality shopping and services, it does have a classy and glam soul, used to be known as Queen of the Black Country, and was inclusive of both it's own urban and it's very close rural communities. For me it's not a question of up or down market, for me Moneyshop is just too urban non glam and excluding rural, but it amounts to same thing as those who'll feel it's down market, feel pushed out. And it's not fair to suggest that's unreasonable, this is our love and it knows no division. Not too much of a snob to support in 4th Division, don't need glory or poshness, just some integrity / realness and dignity.

And yes the sponsorship is done now, which was the point of my posts yesterday.



29 May 2016 07:58:27
Guys, we are much different to bloody Blackpool. There in league 2 for a start and to be completely honest you could of seen this coming after Morgan put the club up for sale.
I really think that Pig-headed Moxey should seriously F off but that's just me! However I'm still going to stand by my club unlike ULF



29 May 2016 13:28:56
Genuinely good for you, I don't think I've once said people shouldn't keep standing by the club, I hope people do keep supporting but keep needling about MS too, though up to all individuals to decide for themselves, many won't care because football is all that matters and some may even love MS and genuinely great because it is an every-man club.

And I'm not walking away from my club, for me personally Moxey MS are erecting a barrier between me and Wolves, making the club for me too urban, commercial, and distant, and making me very concerned they're not necessarily helping Wolverhampton any more and are potentially even at odds with it's best interests. It's hopefully just a temporary thing, but fact is, if Moxey never finds any red-lines in anyone there's no limit to him, it's not a bad thing for some to stand their ground and make the point he's gone too far. And on issue of identity, with that being more my expertise than football it's reasonable I do it on this.
