You’re right is footballing ability isn’t good enough but he’s also had more than a second chance, he’s had a third and a fourth, and probably a fifth sooner or later.

No convictions in the 5 years since he went to prison suggests he's learnt his lesson. He's also been in won 3 promotions in his career, so you wouldn't think he causes any issues in the dressing room.

His Sharp video is a bit unprofessional, but it's not really a big deal to me, just a bit of football banter type stuff. To be honest, I wouldn't have thought he would want to sign for us due to still be liked by Wednesday fans.

 

[Eric Cartman]

But he will. Our players like a drink and he can’t take a drink. Do you think he could take the clowning about by Duffy and coutts

I don't think he does drink anymore, at least rarely. Seems to have grown up

It’s a risk I wouldn’t take regards this great group of players we have.

 

[Eric Cartman]

Madine is now a proven Championship striker.
Whether he's been a cock in the past or not is irrelevant, he seems to have kept himself clean and quiet for some time now.

If he's good enough for Chris, and we all know how much work he does into finding out if players are the right fit for the group or not, he's good enough for me.

And let's be honest we all know for all his faults Warnock doesn't tolerate fools either. So Madine must be doing something right.

 

[YES Blade]

I personally think that it would be impossible for any one player to come in and upset the team spirit, there would need to be other issues present.

Clarke is one fucking mardy bastard, I know that having met him in several scenarios and seen him in public. If he doesn't upset the apple cart Madine certainly won't.

So Madine and Clarke in the same team, most likely on the same bench is not likely to cause issues?

What would you think if you were Clarke, as you say knowing he is mardy?

 

[Sean Thornton]

He may just not like you.......

Well he doesn't get on with Billy. I read it on here.

 

[Eric Cartman]

He may just not like you.......

True, and that's fair enough, but he was mardy with just about every person in every situation I've seen him in. Including on the pitch

 

[Eric Cartman]

They're professionals.

 

[FTPE]

Wilder has had Clarke as captain quite a few times. He's obviously a good influence rather than a bad one.
As for being mardy, Roy Keane is depressing and angry as fuck, a better leader of men you will never find.

 

[sheffielder]

They're professionals.

True, but you wouldn't have them down as model professionals?

 

[Fulwood Blade]

I thought he was the best player on the pitch when Utd played Bolton last season. For all those saying he's useless, not many useless players get sold for £6m.

Agreed - he was also a handful in the away game earlier in the season.

He caught JOC a right one in the 2nd half, but that is part of his game

UTB

 

[Eric Cartman]

True, but you wouldn't have them down as model professionals?

Professionals nonetheless. Shouldn't matter.

25 grown men aren't all going to get along in any walk of life and football is no different.

*CENSORED* and *CENSORED* really don't get on, and that's a fact.

 

[Eric Cartman]

It might be a fact, but it's certainly something I think that needs to be out in public

People don't get on, that's life.

Just as Madine might not get on with Stearman for example. I'd still expect them to die for each other when they cross that white line.

 

[Lmaobob]

Footballing side of things - he's a proper handful for defenders.

Don't think Leon is a handful for defenders personally - I don't feel like he knows that his body is built for being a bulldozer and winning every single header that comes his way and scoring from corners etc.

Madine should do that nicely

Can see this being another Ched Evans saga where he gets sent to jail for doing something bad which hampers our promotion chance.

Shit.

 

[Davalon]

Ironically they had a warm handshake and chat after the Bolton game last season.

You could be right and I hope you are for the sake of our club.

Wiz, lots of strong characters in the dressing room, if GM crosses a line he'll be told to behave.

There’s going to have to be mate.

Think JOC on his own can handle things.

 

[ElephantBlade]

I really don't think the existing core of players are that precious that one guy is going to ruin everything.

You'd think a group of young (ish) Men could sort themselves out enough.

 

[cjx blade]

The players will be on for quite a hefty bonus if we get promoted so any player coming in that helps us get over the line and earns them the bonus will be welcomed Im sure.

 

[Pollingtonblade]

I don't let my love for the Blades affect my moral judgement on players. I won't suddenly start liking Madine if we sign him. I think he's a detestable human being and I don't care how good he is, morals DO come before football for me. I think it would be a disastrous move if we sign him - he'll cause upset in the dressing room and I just don't think it's worth taking the risk.

Let's hope this is just a wind-up. There are better players than him out there that wouldn't be such a risk. If he does sign then I will treat him the same as I treated Marlon King when he signed. I won't boo him - but I won't applaud him either, or acknowledge any contribution he makes to the team. I'll just ignore him because that's the contempt I think he deserves.

Bullshit, if he scores the winner at the sty or a promotion winning goal you’ll sit on your hands.

You are one of many poor chaps on here who place importance on what happens in the Sheffield derby as if life and death depends on it. Try and open your eyes a bit wider maybe?

I want us to win the Sheffield derby, of course I do. After that 0-0 thrashing we gave them at the Lane earlier this season it's the very least we deserve. If we win that game I'll applaud the team. I won't be applauding any goal that Madine scores, that's a very easy decision for me. Maybe not so easy for you?

Try and realise that the season is about much more than the Sheffield derby. Although I don't want us to lose the Sheffield derby, I'd be quite happy to get beat in the Sheffield derby and get promoted at the end of the season. That's my perspective on it.

Stop talking shit you wouldn't celebrate if Madine scored the winner at Wembley to see us promoted i call bullshit.

 

[Cerberus Blade]

I don't talk bullshit - thanks. I won't applaud Madine - full stop. I think he's a dickhead. I won't boo him either.

If we score a winning goal at Wembley, as you suggest (and I don't think we are going to Wembley - won't be necessary) then I will applaud the goal - I will assume that it wasn't all the work of one man.

Does that help?

Shit.

Footballing side of things he's a striker that scores on average every 6 games. Now i'm no bright spark but that ain't too clever without adding facts like he's a convicted thug, an open Blades hater and thinks the record scorer this century is a fat little pig.

Wilder can do no wrong? He needs to rethink this quick.
