CONFIRMED Gary Madine signs on loan

[Hamburg Blade]

I’m sure your email will really, really hurt the club and make a massive impact on the potential signing of Gary Madine.

Have you heard yourself?

Why do you think the intention of the email was to hurt the club? Your last few posts seem very spiteful towards other Blades. Have you heard yourself?

 

[blader]

Why is it as if something is always going on that we don’t know about at this club? Why can’t you explain now?

Spiteful towards Blades? This is coming from ‘fans’ who are talking shite because the club are about to announce a signing.

If he’d not played for that lot at S6 it would be completely different. Wilder thinks he can do a job and if he’s good enough for Wilder, he’s good enough for me.

The bloke has picked us up off of our knees and is doing an amazing job. This should allow him to make a decision like this. Let’s face it, if Wilder can’t, then who can?

There's no need to be nasty towards fellow Blades because they have an opinion about a signing. You obviously haven't read much of the thread and just dived in, because there is very little about him playing for the other lot, and a lot about his criminal convictions and his character. Wilder deserves credit for what he's done, but that doesn't mean we have to take our brains out and follow him like zombies.

 

[Broomhall Blade]

After todays performance he might change his mind and not join.

Seriously though could have done with him today.

 

[Revolution]

It's going to be interesting when Madine first replaces Sharp in the starting XI.

I’ve read it from the start, but thanks for checking.

No, the main reasons some ‘Blades’ are pissed off is because he said something about Billy. Yes, he’s had a few scraps in his time, but it wasn’t just a Blade he punched, he punched a Wednesday fan as well.

As others have mentioned, the club has had players with chequered histories in the past but this one is getting a bit silly now. Get behind the team, the team that has taken us to top end of the Championship, whether that includes Madine or not.

There’s no need for these pathetic emails to the club and the like, that’s just embarrassing.

Blasphemy - stone him!

 

[HolmesfieldBlade]

The Madine deal has already been signed by both parties.

All left to do is the announcement.

 

[Hamburg Blade]

So why claim it's about him playing for Wednesday when you know that's not true?

So it's alright if he hit a Wednesdayite to level it up? He hasn't just had a "few scraps", he was sent to prison.

Just because there's been others in the past doesn't mean it's all alright whoever we sign. And I am sure people are capable of getting behind the team whilst still being very unhappy with Madine's signing. If people feel strongly enough to write to the club, they should. There's nothing wrong with that. I doubt the club would discourage interaction with its own supports.

 

[Broomhall Blade]

Lol, i have just watched that and in my mind i substituted Madine for Jehovah.

I better watch out for women with fake beards carrying stones on Saturday afternoon.

People have still said this is part of the problem - am I wrong? Nope.

No, I didn’t say that did I? Come on, you’re not that silly are you? You’ll be sending an email to the club next protesting against the signing of a player. You asked for reasons why people are against it and people are claiming it’s because he battered a Blade, making out like he did because he’s a Wednesday fan when he’s not, otherwise he wouldn’t have slapped one of them, would he?

The club won’t discourage it, no. It’s not going to make one bit of difference. They’ll be giving their season ticket away next - if they actually have one that is.

You say you've read through the thread, the assaults have been discussed, his attack on a Wednesdayite was not to do with the club he supports. The one with the Unitedite appears to have been. People have suggested there may be more to it all, but not enough to prevent him being convicted. Plenty of people have questioned having someone like that at the club - and there have been other incidents mentioned as well. You've dismissed it all as "had a few scraps" - it's far, far more serious than that and to belittle anyone who has concerns is bizarre. Why have you become his defender? Why attack the Blades themselves with childish insults? If you have an alternative opinion, you can post it without having a go at people. You don't seem to be capable of that, which sends threads like this into a downward spiral.

I imagine he just wanted 1) to talk about the game and 2) wait until after the official announcement to discuss it

You should - they're Madine's sisters!

 

[Blade56]

Well, everyone who is going to boycot the game, tear their season tickets up etc can f**k off, and when you get there f**k off some more. If me and the two sons are the only ones left on the terraces chearing Madine's and anyone else's goals in then so be it. We are blades first and won't take part in this booing individuals Tom foolery.

I think about 3 people have said they aren't going to go anymore. And I suspect that was just an outburst because they're pissed off, a little bit along the lines of your OTT post, I suspect.

 

[Mesut Özil's Lawnmower]

Why such a delay in announcing this

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

Done deal.

 

[Johnstreetstand]

I may be showing my age but Alan Warboys sprang into my memory. Ex Wendy, Cardiff city and upset a few when he broke John Hopes nose. Came to us briefly and did nothing. Would we have had all this childish whinnying back then?

 

[Sheffsteel]

Nope.....it’s the latest trend.
Feel part of a group and be outraged together.
I’m sure a psychologist could explain why some people love being outraged and offended.
The strange thing is that the national media have no interest in Madines past misdemeanors, it’s no where near the shit storm of the Ched hate campaign and no national image damage to the clubs reputation either.

Billy's off hence no fraction between them?

I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking that. Think he'd have been better than the options we had today minus sharp.

 

[metalblade]

Why the delay in announcing it, maybe waiting for a bad result to deflect from the shitstorm this signing will make .................. oh wait

You know what I can't get my head round with this deal is that at this time last year every Blade who uses this forum were pissing themselves laughing at Cardiff City and Colin especially and wondering just how the fuck Bolton (who wanted rid anyway after more trouble in a pub involving Madine) had convinced them to pay £6m for Gary fuckin Madine ? He must have improved ten fold since he moved to Cardiff that's all I can say seeing as the hypocritical twats on here are now making out he is a top striker some even hinting he is better than Jordan Rhodes. Staggering but then Rhodes these days doesn't really set a very high standard in the striking department does he. Call yourself Blades will you want Ainsworth as our manager next ?

It is one thing being an ex Wednesday player but Gary Madine is not your average ex Wednesday player.

We're not paying £6m for him though which is where most of the humour arose from.

 

[bromtom]

In fact I'd go as far to say all the humour.

If you discount him as a person he's an uninspiring "ok I suppose" type signing, he'd scored 10 for Bolton or something and a team that played a certain style wanted a certain player and it was him. Nowt wrong with that, the price was just massively inflated.

Are you sure about that? I've seen a few reports stating it's a loan to buy in the summer deal.

We've not got a pot to piss in so I very much doubt we'll spend £6m on a striker anytime soon.
