Came for Ole

Never wanted to be here after that.

Good for player and the club.

He is not a bad player, just heart not in it for Cardiff

Was pretty crap when Ole was here though.

Just glad its over.
I agree he never wanted to play for Cardiff

Always worked his nuts off in my opinion. He just never found his goal scoring touch for us but I don't think saying his heart wasn't in it is fair. Let's be honest, he never received much decent service to play off either.
Good luck to the lad.

Agree to a point but it never seemed to gel even when Ole was here.
His finishing deserted him here.

Good luck to him

Not a great loss. His goal score record isn't that amazing outside of league 2. Most he scored in a championship season is 15 from 38 games.

As we've seen In the past 4 - 5 years, no striker will ever score lots of goals in our system.

Whittingham and gunnarsson do nothing through the middle.

Hell score loads at wolves and when we lose a few games well blame Slade for this :old: :old:

Re: ' HE'S FINALLY GONE '

He had more chances than anyone you cant blame anyone else but Lefondre , he didn't want to play for us came here for Ole and the money as Reading couldn't afford him and got rid

Wolves have completed the signing of Adam Le Fondre on a season-long loan from Cardiff.

The former Rotherham striker had tweeted earlier on Monday that he was "off for a medical" and the 28-year-old has now completed a switch to Molineux.

Wanderers have the option to make the deal permanent at the end of the campaign.

Both clubs announced the deal on Monday evening, with Wolves' head of football development and recruitment Kevin Thelwell saying: "We are really pleased to bring Adam to the club.

"He has a proven goalscoring pedigree with a terrific strike rate in both the Championship and the Premier League.

"We have been chasing him for a long time and are delighted that he is now a Wolves player."

A Cardiff statement added: "The loan runs until 31st May 2016, inclusive. Adam is ineligble to feature in either of our fixtures with Wolves during the 2015/16 season.

"We'd like to thank Adam for his contribution and wish him luck for the future."

Le Fondre was out of favour at the Bluebirds after joining from Reading in 2014, scoring just three times in 25 games, and spent time on loan at Bolton last season, netting eight goals in 17 outings.

Wolves boss Kenny Jackett has been searching for a new striker after losing Bakary Sako and failing to land Chris Wood, who joined Leeds.

The head coach only has Benik Afobe and Nouha Dicko as his frontline strikers and needed fresh firepower.

so much for holding out for £2mil :lol: Panic has set in, no club was willing to pay anywhere near what City paid 12 months ago. Now confirmed as a fact

Whilst we continue paying him to do so.

You couldn't make it up. How ironic would it be if his goals for Wolves enable them to just beat us to the last play-off place at the end of the season?

Although it's pretty unlikely that we'll be fighting at that end of the table under the current manager.

Hard to see what we gain by loaning him out, surely any sort of fee would have made more sense

Re: " DEAL COMPLETED HES LEFT "

Tue Aug 04, 2015 8:37 am

Glad he's gone what I find strange though is he says he was homesick so wanted to move up North but he was quite happy to play for Reading for a few seasons which is further South than us
