Wilder not 'appeh......

[RammyBlade]

With agents apparently - in his interview said that we couldnt have done any more and that certain people alluded to agents were playing games that stopped us getting in another 3 players .

The game is bent when agents effectively decide who moves and who doesnt!!

 

[Ricky]

Agents' interests seem to come well before the players' nowadays.

It must be beyond infuriating dealing with them.

 

[itsinyerblood]

Best tell agents without any integrity to go bollox! Wilder's approach is the right one, even if sometimes we'll lose out as a result.

 

[Roygbiv]

The agent of Sinclair and Quina must be delighted two of his clients are going to be sat at home every weekend when they could have been playing football for a living instead

 

[JJBlade]

We've gone for players with offers that have been rejected by their clubs because they were not sufficient to tempt them to sell

These deals wouldn't have even got as far as the players agent having to do anything because they were rejected out of hand.

 

[Roygbiv]

Where is the interview? I can't get the one on the official site to play

 

[Slim Man]

At the end of the day every club in the world has to deal with them.

I think we use it as an excuse far too often if I'm honest.

 

[madeinsheffield]

We get told it's only a short career, then the agent holds them back from being in and around first team squad, why??

It would seem that Wilder is saying the clubs AGREED some of the deals but the players agents were playing games.
Assume he's talking about Quinna and Sinclair.
Loans should be fairly straight forward, the easiest types of deals to make because they'll only temporary.

 

[Tyler Durden]

If there was any natural justice then every single football agent would be sleeping rough on the streets tomorrow, sucking cocks for the price of a cup of tea. But I've long since given up on any hope of fairness in this world, alas.

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

Sounds like the agent of Quina and Sinclair. Whatever went off his client of 17 years now misses out on valuable first team experience, the other will continue to be starved of first team football into his early 20's.

Good work.

Think it is Roberto de Fanti who caused problems at Sunderland and Leyton Orient, I think (only did a quick google search)

Cheers but that's the one I can't get to play for some reason. Was Wilder pissed off with just the agents or was there anything aimed at the board?

I'd suggest that Baldock and Stevens might be first team players, the rest no more than squad fillers
Everything we shouldn't have done we have done

I can't get it to play either.

squad fillers ,, define a bit more
Ithought it was a squad game these days

Stearmans a bit more than peripheral for starters

You know what I mean by squad fillers
Players who will not challenge for a first team place unless we are struck down by a plague of injuries.

The team that got promoted looks like our best side suggesting no improvements have been made at all

Quantity over quality as usual

 

[ucandomagic]

Agents understand one thing - cash - and the more that goes under the table the more likely the deal. It's the football equivalent of the drug problem in cycling and athletics.

If you join in you lose your soul and you lose your club.

I like who we are.

He seems to say that the clubs and players were happy - the players were looking forward to playing at Bramall Lane, but ....

Also implied that we are not alone on this one.

There's a 2 minute video on YouTube with wilder talking about deadline day. Not sure if it is the same interview as the one on the website though.
