Offer accepted for Leon Clarke

[dunstablewolf]

Seems like an offer has been agreed. A?750k.

My source is twitter. So it must be true ;D

[WOODLANDSWOLF]

Is this good or bad? I don't know anything about this guy.

[dunstablewolf]

Leon was a fat useless waste of space during his time at Wolves.

He came through our youth system and scored bags of goals in the youth team. He seemed to be more interested in everything but football as soon as he won a contract for the first team.

He dwindled from there on in really.

However this was nearly 10 years ago. He looks a lot leaner now, he has scored 19 goals this season and is a lot older. It may make the difference and he may prove the promise he showed in our youth set up.

Fingers crossed.

"Fingers crossed." Again! Don't sound very promising though. :s

Can't see anything firm anywhere else. Does anyone else have any positive news with source?

Usually Tim Nash or P O'Rourke are over this sort of rumour like a flash, but nothing.

Great pictures in the link.

Re the pic of the Arsenal v Sheffield Wednesday match 1967, which was abandoned after 47 minutes - I was at that game. We had gone down on the coach to see the Wolves at Chelsea. As we were going through London it came out over the radio that the Wolves game was off, so we went to Highbury and stood with the Wednesday fans.

Dunst I think your portrait of the guy was spot on.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to post for the last few days but this is a spot on assessment Dunst, and I also agree with your opening thread regarding not wanting him back.

I want Jackett to be buying players that will be able to cut it in the Championship and I'm far from convinced Clarke can do that, I am also not convinced that Clarke is a reformed character regarding his attitude issues.

There's one or two that I think would be a bit 'Suspect' in the Championship, Ricketts for starters!

Why would we want to buy players that can cut it in the Championship? You are either presuming we are going up or you believe we can sell them to Championship clubs at the end of the season a

How can the "fat controller" make money for himself Bully? I don't see that one.CEO'S are there to try and see that companies make profits and like it or not football clubs are no different,they are purely businesses today who have to make a profit if possible.Most CEO's are paid bonuses on the profitability of the company so I hope he gets a wacking great bonus because that means more into Wolves coffers.Providing that is spend for the benefit of the club,great.Today we see a few new players and just take a visit to the expanding Academy it is vast which should entice good youngsters and better players if we progress in the future.
