Con in the morning at 12



Prove he hasn't



What are you lot on about with Villa? Theres no reports of him going to villa anywhere , Only on here and everythings bloomin made up on here



Good grief, the lack of patience is staggering You think anything is going to be announced well after business hours? On the last day of the window maybe but not this early in the window.

How come the brummies acept the £7m bid this time and not the last one?
(GaVsTeR)



Probably because they worked out that a bigger bid was not liable to be forthcoming and with all the shenanigans going on with Yeung they probably need the cash now.

Ian



They could of accepted the bid now'knowing that villa were finalising compensation with them, they might be hoping to get a bidding war going between wolves and villa'just a thought

Wolves Squad Next Season GK De Vries RB Zubar CB Johnson CB A. Faye LB Elokobi LM Jarvis CM O'hara CM Gueidioura RM Hunt CF Doyle CF Fletcher



A. Faye signed for West Ham a few weeks ago after leaving Stoke ?



Pretty small squad for a season if you ask me...

Sometimes you have to lose before you win - in business and in poker So how about the theory that with Wolves demonstrating with the Mills deal that they were prepared to walk away, when they were actually playing Birmingham for the Johnson deal they wanted all along? In my view Moxey is a very canny card playing businessman...I still reckon there are more significant names to follow.



Spot on we won't be held to ransom by other clubs, three weeks ago brum wanted £14 million for johnson two weeks later £10 million and now £7million sometimes playing the waiting game pays off i hope



May be we should wait another 3 weeks and get him for £3.5 million. happy days



Did you post this after reading mine, below?
Or are you thinking the same as me?



11 Jul 2011 16:38:35
How about this for a scenario?
Jez offers B'ham our best offer for Johnson, take it or we walk. Then Jez finds another CB (Mills) we're not really interested in but make out to everybody we are. We offer our best price, take it or leave it. They want more so Jez did what he said and walked.

Did this attitude in our dealings have anything to do with Birmingham meeting our valuation for Johnson?
Maybe they couldn't risk Jez walking and were afraid of missing out?

Allright peeps, seen the same car as someone else, black Bently ROG, perhaps Roger Johnson. Also saw a Audi R8 , TCH and Porsche, EAR, can't think who they may be, any ideas?.........Gezza



Tch is Thierry Henry



11 Jul 2011 18:47:42
Johnson reckons were halfway there to his signature



For a million quid too - and still people reckon Jez is no good Would have been happy with half of that just to get rid of the donkey. Yes I know its a loss on the player but anything more than a couple of kegs of Bass would have to be considered a bonus surely?

Hopefuly at last a commanding centre half, to dominate in the air and be a strong leader, something wolves have been crying out for, good on wolves great piece of buisness.



Good business but we haven't signed him yet I'm getting a bit nervous



11 Jul 2011 17:51:57
Halford has gone Pompey phew



HE WAS SHOCKING



11 Jul 2011 17:16:14
have not heard any rumours, however SkyBet has moved Wolves odds for signing Matt Upson in to 1/ 3



11 Jul 2011 16:27:53
all quiet on the rumour front today...anything other than johnson?



11 Jul 2011 16:25:42
We are living in a world where Wigan want 20 million for N'Zogbia, the same as what Villa want for Downing, so around 7million for Johnson is one hell of a bargain Well done Wolves
and a great loss of respect for Wigan...



He aint signed yet....talk of villa jumping in



11 Jul 2011 15:54:09
Woodgate to sign for Stoke , West Baggies Albion to sign Owen Hargreaves , thank god these crocked has been's are no longer link with Wolves.Signing Johnson is a massive statement is a massive statement where the club is heading. Good business too from Moxey & Co.
Gibo.



11 Jul 2011 15:30:05
Rodger johnson having medical now



11 Jul 2011 15:04:14
has anyone heard anything about roger johnson? its been 2 quiet for 2 long, i reckon hes off somewhere else



11 Jul 2011 14:54:13
I am usually one of the first to moan when Wolves seem to be dragging their feet. But you can't deny they are good on the business side of things when it comes to transfers. We have let Blues have our best price for Johnson, let them stamp there feet and bandy about silly figures and eventually come back to us and accept our offer. Love him or hate him, Moxey is a shrewd dealer in the transfer market. A brilliant signing for Wolves as long as it comes off and a quality CH on board. I think we are now 2 more signings away from mid table next year. Another CH to fight with Craddock, Berra and Stearman to play alongside Johnson and i think the other might be Lee Wallace from Hearts. That will be excellent business as well at around £1.5m. I think any other deals will be dependant on players leaving. ie Henry, Doyle. They would then have to be replaced of course.



11 Jul 2011 13:30:27
Johnson made the most headed clearances last season in the prem nearly 287



Not nearly it was 287



11 Jul 2011 13:11:27
Be careful what you wish for...
I go to London (north) each Saturday and am surrounded by Spurs fans who I would count as friends. I asked loads about Bassong, saying there's a lot of rumours and talk about him interesting Wolves. NO-ONE has a good word to say about him. They can't believe he cost £12m in the first place, but can't wait to get rid of him. I cannot remember seeing him play so can't personally comment on his ability.



11 Jul 2011 11:47:26
According to today's E&S Wolves are closing in on Rodger Johnson.I do hope this true.
Gibo.



Well if you look on BBC ceefax it's the second item on the football headlines.



If/ when terms are agreed and he signs who is next?
a left back? ridgewell has worked with johnson before so they will have a good understanding of each other that should help them settle in..or is it worth a gamble on wallace, young, unproven in top flight but cheaper than ridgewell.....is one centre back enough??



More questions than answers



11 Jul 2011 10:28:40
why do people bother putting crap on here like

Samba signing for Wolves?



11 Jul 2011 10:11:43
Tottenham have moved ahead of Arsenal in the pursuit of Blackburn defender Chris Samba - on the bbc website - doesn't look like he's coming our way



WELL HE NEVER WAS ANYWAY



Theres another lower league player called samba....ex eng under 19 player i think...perhaps its him



Yeah his name is cherno samba he use to play for Plymouth n Watford n just got released by a Finnish side called haka n wolves wouldnt sign him anyway not good enough has loads of potential if man it'd n Liverpool wanted him scored like 139 goals for his school team in 1 season when he was 13
