Raiding Wolves

[SeagullSongs]

As Wolves are almost certainly going down (even if they win this game, I can't see them winning the rest but would be happy to be proven wrong), which players would you like to see us acquire?

I'd quite like a couple from Fletcher, Ebanks-Blake, Stearman and maybe Hennessey.

 

[Billy the Fish]

Cloud cuckoo-land I'm afraid.

 

[philsussex]

Kevin Doyle

That would be the Wolves that will have millions in parachute payments over the next 4 years? No hope I am afraid!

Don't be bloody stupid. Wolves will get millions for being relegated. They haven't spent huge over the years and their wage bill won't be that high.

I expect them to keep hold of most of their players with a few exceptions... Jarvis, O'Hara, Fletcher, Doyle. I'd imagine they'll be sold to prem teams (ones that go up or ones that just avoid the drop).

I also predict that Wolves will be mega challengers for auto places next season with Ebanks-Blake to reignite his career in the championship once more.

If we're playing fantasy football then I'd be quite happy to pinch SEB. Seems to know where the onion bag is

 

[BASINGSTOKESEAGULL]

Being realistic what about their back up keeper Dorus De Vries? Played second fiddle to Hennessey for most of the season and has played for Swansea in previous years what is a similar style to ours.

Good keeper De Vries - he's playing against Man City today.

Don't see us getting much from Wolves' woes.

this...... was swansea number 1 last season on promotion from NPC, excellent at playing with his feet from back, good keeper, not sure he would prefer being number 2 at championship Wolves V's being number 1 at championship Albion, our system of play will be very familiar to him...... realistic target imo

Wolves will be champions next year.

i have a feeling they will try to raid us by knocking on our door for gus again

No chance.

 

[HawkTheSeagull]

Wont get much, if any, from them. Might let us keep Vokes if they wanted but thats probably it.

Squad looks good for the title next year and providing they keep most of it, they could go straight back up.

 

[driller]

No chance.

i said try.

 

[brightn'ove]

i have this horrible feeling that they will come in for buckley

gut feeling, nothing else, they seem to utilise the wings a lot and he would be great for them

 

[Paddy B]

Why would we "raid" Wolves? Whilst they are now in the same division as us, they are a much larger club and always will be. Have to be one of the favourites to win the league next season

 

[Weststander]

Fletcher, Jarvis, Hennessey, O'Hara & Doyle will be snapped up by PL clubs; we can't pay that level of wages.

Local lad Henry may stay loyal in trying to get them back up.

What about Ebanks Blake?

 

[SB005]

I would think kightly will be fairly highly sought after?

Forgot about him. Will be snapped up by the PL too.

 

[We're the Stripes]

If any Albion fans genuinely think we're going to be poaching the best players from the relegated PL clubs then I fear they may be horribly disappointed by our summer activity.

Doyle, Fletcher and O'Hara will all go to established PL clubs for sure.
