First of all sorry Oliver (yesterday) for doubting your rumour looks like Antonio is leaving. To say I'm disgusted is an understatement, some people may say it's a good deal, sorry I don't think so. We were expecting with this so called takeover investment and a season to look forward to. Instead we have to sell to buy players, 2 things if this transfer goes through, Mr Gray spend the money wisely and bring in 2-3 players and lastly a big thank you to MM who in my eyes has turned this takeover into a right fiasco and he is solely to blame for bringing wild hopes of investment to Wednesday fans.

Patience - 9months, 46 lge matches, 138pts, and hopefully a good few cup matches to go!
Not even kicked a competitive ball yet.
Can't say I'm not surprised to see Antonio go at this time, BUT - if SG doesn't see him as part of the long term plan and there's a possibility of losing a key signing if we don't act NOW, then it makes good sense doesn't it?
For example if the money was used to get the striker that knocks 20-30 goals in this season, or he went to make way for Ben Marshall to play out wide, would there be too many complaints from any of us?
The time to be critical, if its justified, is at the end of the season, not before its even started

Worst thing that could happen is that Antonio fails his medical!

Well said liveinhopeowl. It's about time the fans brown nosing stopped and a few home truths were told. A certain Revowl warned us of this fiasco ages ago on here and everyone jumped on his back including Ed. This all things just a mess that will end in disappointment anyway so let's move on. MM needs to stop the feel good stuff and serious investors need to be found ASAP before we end up in a worse mess than when MM took over.

I assue that liveinhopeowl and Strad have never bought houses. Buying them can drag on for months and the paperwork for that is quite simple. Buying a football club is hundreds of times harder with reams of paperwork that will need to go back and forth between at least 3 parties and possibly more so takes a while. The only reason it seems to be dragging on is that the announcement of the takeover was made to early as the French press was about to leak it. I think a lot of people on here assume that all you need to do to buy a football club is to walk up to the current owner, give them money and that is it, when in reality it takes a lot of time and paperwork. MM doesn't want to spend any more money, HM doesn't want to spend money as technically the club isn't his just yet so to get any new players which is what we need we will have to sell. Antonio was a good player for the club but hasn't really developed in the last season, if we can get a couple of million which funds some extra players then that is fine by me.

Nothing to do with sg not wanting Antonio in is plans, nothing to do with sg, he piks a squad out of what he's got, the owners of clubs now days buy and sell, look at forrests s Pearce, he's even done an interview on ow disgusted he is on sale of his players, and he ant even been in charge of a league match, sorry to say but my post weeks ago is the same, we will not spend 500. 000 this season
