His work-rate puts him in the Marcus Stewart class. His diving more like Tom Daley (or whatever his name is). A big YES for me. I like him.

If we signed him it would be a case of. Yesterday he was the biggest twat in football. Today he's a hero.
One of, if not the best players in the championship.

He's a prick and even if he played for Town it wouldn't change my opinion, once a prick etc

Good player but what a tosser.
Is he really the kind of character you would want in what's more than likely going to be a battle to stay up.
As soon as he gets dropped or a sniff of a better offer he gets a monk on.

Can't wait to sing this next season. I have been known to sing it close season, just to myself!.
Great song and the ultimate piss take for them Wednesday wankers.

I don't think he's good enough for the PL, which is why he's sat at Wednesday for so long and not been snapped up...it's a no from me.

He doesn't appeal to me in any way, shape or form. That said, I do have great sympathy. If he has been cleared in a criminal court how on earth can the FA pass their own judgement upon him? He should win his appeal and the FA should go back to working out how to distribute their obscene wealth more fairly amongst the football community.

He should win his appeal and the FA should go back to working out how to distribute their obscene wealth more fairly amongst the football community. That's because the courts make decisions and reach judgements based on evidence and witness testimony, and the FA make judgements based on how fat the brown envelope you gave them was. Wednesday should've stuffed a few more fifties in there.

He should win his appeal and the FA should go back to working out how to distribute their obscene wealth more fairly amongst the football community. It's quite simple. It's about different levels of evidence being required and different charges. One can get disciplined for misconduct at work, or even sacked, eg for pushing somebody. That doesn't mean that the same evidence would be sufficient for a conviction of common assault, which would have to meet the threshold of beyond all reasonable doubt, rather than on the balance of probabilities, which is what applies in civil matters. Another way of looking at it is that the FA have their own codes of conduct for football professionals. One can be found guilty of breaking such codes without committing a criminal offence. I don't see why there is need for great sympathy if the FA has conducted the case fairly.

The FA typically turns less profit than Town have in the last 12 months.

The FA typically turns less profit than Town have in the last 12 months. But surely that should always be the case? They exist as a not for profit organisation to support football at all ends of the scale don't they? Taking aside the daft salaries/bonuses the top Execs will walk away with, if they're re-distributing revenue (or profit if you like) to things like grass roots football, then it should all be spent & the books should show very little surplus or equally very little loss (in context).

I would have been disappointed if he wasn't playing. Some piss-taking use of "mobile-phone" lights might be in order as well or a "Welcome to the Cauldron" banner slung below the John Smiths stadium sign on Stadium way (so long as we make it abundently clear we are just taking the p*** out of the Massive). Colin Quaner should definitely do the half-time draw and be asked "How did it feel to turn Sheffield Wednesday into a mid-table Championship club". PS Mid-table might be generous.
