Sheffield Wednesday manager Dave Jones wants Robbie Fowler, 36, who failed to agree terms with Blackpool when they offered him £90 a week and £5,000 a game.
Jones is considering a deal until the end of the season.

Hopefully he'll take a few more of the jokers Malky wants to unload . I'll drive the minibus to Sheffield myself ! :ayatollah:

Why dont they have Eddie as well? Or Leo, or JET? Give them Rudy as well, just to finish the promotion charge off.

Seriously though, he might actually be able to do something at that level if he's not constantly injured.

He's looking sharp in training apparently!!

He's history, don't let him bother you he's not worth the effort.

Blackpool said they wanted him, Holloway said publically, the experience he'd have as a coach would be brilliant too, pay per game sounds fair.

Fowler pays for himself with merchandise. It raises the profile of the club in League One and if he chips in with a couple of goals...bonus. Makes sense to me

that was always the trouble with dave jones when he was here, always looking for a short term mix of players coming to the end of their careers and loan signings, although jones found and developed good players like whittingham, McCormack & Bothroyd, not many young players come through the ranks under jones

That was a major problem with him, liked to hit the headlines with big names, even they were past their sell by dates.

You really are obsessed with Dave Jones. For god's sake let it go. You got your wish when the club got rid of him so why keep going on about him. I just hope that your beloved Malky can live up to all the hype and exiectati

So I am not allowed to comment on the above. :roll: :roll:
This is a forum and opinions on football are welcome, your on the wrong forum.
I never got my wish, he should of been sacked after the 6 nil defeat by Preston and then 3 nil at home to Ipswich.

I just hope that your beloved Malky can live up to all the hype and expectation. I said some time ago there was more to being a good manager than doing the ayatollah and clenched fist salutes. Let's hope he is still our manager in 4,5 or even 10 years time because that will mean he had proved what a good manager he is.

Totally agree and like I said I hope Malky is here for a long long time and gets proper backing from the owners. Good luck to Dave Jones and I hope he does well where ever he is except when playing us!

That does Luke, but Fowler turned Holloway's offer down, which I thought was fair.

Yeah.

Maybe even paying him a wage until the end of the season is worth the risk. It wouldn't be much and at that level he would have to be an asset.
