And they were only finally persuaded to sign him after the Wigan disaster. They were happy to wait an extra week if it wasn't for that. The lack of urgency we've addressed our problems has been a disgrace. Hard to get any kind of handle on why an injured Clucas was bought for the same money 3 weeks before him as it was well signposted he could have left all summer for that figure? Just makes no sense Missed the game today Grapey. Is the lad mustard?

Just makes no sense Really odd isn't it. The only thing that can be said is that the signings that are 100% rowett choices haven't been too bad at all. Even McLean hasn't been as Bad as I thought he'd be. The goings on at stoke city remain ridiculously strange and unfathomable.

Fingers crossed he can keep it going...

The one real shining light from a shower of shit today. H I think we played very well today actually, but we again couldn't kill the game off even though we had numerous chances to do so. We need to be more clinical and synical as well. Good away performance, but a shit result when leading 2-0. Agree 100% Listening to Signal2 - we were in control, first to everything....midfield (except for Allen!!) and up front (except for Diouf!!) we were 'bossing it' but the f*cking defence was abysmal

He played very well, but almost gifted them a goal when he lost the ball in his own half. Fuck me. Best debut I can remember since Chamberlain and you choose to highlight a misplaced pass.

He's the real deal. A proper footballer. I'm far more optimistic about what the season has in store now I've seen him running the show.

He was available all summer and we sign him so bloody late. Why? Baffling. We clearly weren't focusing on him until very late. Even Clucas was prioritised over him. He was available for anyone who stumped up the money (and the amount was well known) all summer. He thought Badou was the answer.

This lad could well save our season. He looks that good.
We can stop wondering when we will get our Whelan upgrade now. He's arrived.

Rowett clearly had no idea about the squad, I think that's fairly evident now. He's on record saying Badou was his answer to the holding midfielder role along with comments about Bauer, Bojan and others. I'm not saying Lambert was the answer but he knew the strengths and weaknesses of the squad and would have hit the ground running a lot quicker than Rowett.

Only to show support to some other players who have occasionally made mistakes too. Lets cut some slack for them also. And yes, I still think Woods played very well today.

He's without doubt the Whelan replacement we've been missing. In terms of football ability, he's actually an upgrade.
Let's hope he has the same success and longevity Glenn had.

No like I said above my shower of shit comment was a bit harsh, good to see Afobe get into some good positions to notch. I'm just frustrated that we shit it when 3 points should have been taken. H

I walked on my own through the park to catch the tram on Hillsboro corner back into the city and called for a pint to let it all settle down
Every Sheffield Wednesday fan I spoke too mentioned him without being prompted....that’s how good he was

I just hope he can carry it on as it seems he’s what we’ve needed since Fonz left.
And it took Rowett to spot it.

Interestingly I thought when we had Clucas Woods was going to Swansea as replacement and I couldn’t not think to myself why are we not after him instead of Clucas.....he must have been very late on our radar as if Swansea had come up with another million he would be there?

Very tidy little player...looks small compared to others but that doesn’t bother me. Reminds me a bit of James O’Connor.
