I saw a post on X that said Wolves have become an experiment as to what happens if every single year you sell your best players and replace them with worse ones.

"What happens is you slide down the league table and eventually get relegated
"It hurts me to say, but we deserve to be where we are because the club is being ran appallingly and the football has not been much better."

Sounds familiar.

 

Do we break the news to them that that experiment has already been done so they needn't have bothered.

 

Ah, Chinese owners. Take note Gao apologists. I can't think of any successful Chinese owners in the game currently. It was a fad for them a few years ago, but now they all seem to have lost interest.

 

It's a weird one for me:
Yes we've been incredibly bad during the SR tenure, the manager appointments have been horrible. But they do seem to be doing what we've wanted: they spent a considerable amount of money (for the championship) this season on some of the leagues best players. They didn't just buy up and coming players from youth academies.

What do people want from the organisation? What's missing?
There's clearly rot there, but I wouldn't like to point the finger at Dragan.
They took too long to get rid of Martin when he was out of his depth, but this time they're acting faster (it seems to me at least). For me, it looks like they're trying to learn... I'm leaning towards "be careful what you wish for" and would like SR to stay and make this work. They do need to get this managerial appointment bang on though.

 

For them to **** off?

 

My biggest critique of the last window would be them not balancing the squad. We are overflowing in attacking midfield, but have the worst striker set up in the Championship.

 

Hippie birdday two ewes Chilcs I'm sure you had a goodun.

 

Actually it wasn’t really a fad it was a way to get finances out of China, which got shut down very soon after Gao took ownership of Saints. And that was definitely influential regarding his investment into us.

 

SR of to a board meeting

 

****ers.

 

Slightly random Martin Tyler there too.

 

They look as happy as a dentist's waiting room.

Matty's just heard there's free sausage rolls in hospitality.

 

Not even sure what's being implied. United front between whom? Conflict within the SR ranks?

 

I read it as a "we sacked the manager and bought Romeu back so can the fans stop singing mean songs"

 

There was a report in France last week about how the whole SR organisation is a mess. Maybe in response to that, as well as our fans starting to turn?

 

Solak seems like a quite humble chap. I don't think he would be 'demanding' anything from the fans.

 

Yeah I think it must be something like that. Maybe in-fighting between certain people in SR, and also the reported toxicity between the players and Still.

 

I read it as we’re not going anywhere and we’re in it together? Be interesting to see what happens if we go 1-0 down on Saturday.

 

I think he's a good mate of Le Tiss'

 

I think he's quite friendly with Le Tiss.
