Could be a decent signing for the squad, though fitness issues mentioned

 

[Wards]

Take that, good player (or he was when I last watched him)

 

[YorkBlade]

Luckily we've been linked with him so many times, I've already got plenty of notes on him

 

[utd4ever]

2 games then injured. Any more………..

 

[mcbladeface]

I feel like some Canadian journalists have got their Sheffield clubs mixed up. I thought wednesday were signing him?

 

[Karaoke Blade]

I thought he was going to Pigs!? Perhaps we're now just signing players to piss them off. "Gone to Blades"

They corrected themselves and said it was us

 

[idleurchin]

If true, I wonder if there’s doubts about one of our midfielders injury prospects.

 

[FriethBlade]

Very good addition if true even if it's just for the rest of the season

 

[Carlton Blade]

He's a very different midfielder to the ones we have. Lundstram like in his ability to get into the box, strong, physical. Also, a premium shithouser

 

[Cappy]

 

[DeanLearner'sCat]

If true, I'm not sure he'll play much, but it'd be nice to have actual options until the end of the season. Even if we have another injury crisis, we should have some actual adult footballers on the bench now.

No, they'd probably report it as "Armstrong to sign for Sheffield, Wednesday" if that was the case...

Harry Clarke was signing for them as well

He's played over 500 games so hopefully a blip, can't be a regular crock to turn in around 35 games a season for the last ten years? We hope.

Att had just followed him. That's as nailed on as it gets for them.

[Booker4]

I think the logic is if you sign enough injury prone players then even if some of them are injured you have enough of them to still get a team out via rotating them in and out of the physio room!

I do hope the ultrasound massage is turned on these days rather than just the placebo effect in our medical department!

 

[Jimmy Fleck]

Load of rubbish then

 

[billyblademan]

Wonder if Wednesday are wanting to make it look like they've 'gazzumped' us on this one.

 

[Blade56]

Later in DH repot he says……. However we understand that the reports are wide of the mark and that no deal has been agreed for Armstrong to join United as things stand.

So click bait not journalism

 

[Cappy]

Quality journalism

 

[Wards]

Put the notes back in the filing cabinet YorkBlade

In fairness that's a half decent signing for Wednesday on a short term deal. He's better than some of the other muck they've got.

 

[BalticBlade]

What a rollercoaster of a morning it's been!

hes a good signing for a mid table team

Quality journalism

To be fair to her it was a source at Vancouver Whitecaps who created the confusion by giving her false info after she intially reported it correctly.

 

[jimmymuir]

I think we're fine for numbers in midfield. Souza, Choudhury, Peck, Davies, Hamer, O'Hare is more than enough in the middle of the park. I'd understand it if Armstrong was 21/22, but he's 32 and hardly played since last season.

 

[Southend Blade]

To be fair to her it was a source at Vancouver Whitecaps who created the confusion by giving her false info after she intially reported it correctly.

To be even fairer, they probably are only aware of one team in Sheffield and did not realise he could be signing for anyone other than us

 

[SouthStandGBlock]

I can see why the confusion has arisen, as there's only one Sheffield club signing anyone this transfer window, so naturally, they'll think it's us.
