Good luck. I know not everyone likes you but you played your role in getting us promoted and that can never be taken away from you. Not much impact in the premiership but your goal against Wigan in the first season still earned us 3 points which could have been the difference between staying up or going down.

Never gave less than 100%, always had shaggy hair – good luck

Good luck & thanks Andy, hope you do enough to seal a permanent move – probably best for your career in the long term and hopefully we can recoup the £600k or so we paid (money well spent IMHO)

So the completely unrealistic valuation placed on him last year means that he will likely go on a free at the end of this season of for a token 100K in the January window.

Moxey either does very well (e.g. Johnson) or very badly (far too many to mention) but very rarely okay (Van Damme is the only exception I can think of)

2) Wolfhedd, spot on. Keogh started the revolution that took place under McCarthy that paved the way for the success over the last few years; if I remember rightly he came at about the same time as Kightly and Ward. I remember him and Ward forging a decent partnership up front for a few games.

Always remember the goal away at Derby and the assist for Ebanks Blake that sealed our promotion against QPR.

Should be a great acquisition for Leeds.

Good Luck.

Jarvis made both our goals so who`d like to sell him now? Elokobi made two mistakes in his first 5 minutes coming on! Anyone mentioned we need a left-back lately? Two weeks to go Mick/Steve/Jez.

Good luck, you will do well for them in that league!

Kightly got a knock in training, but he’s fine & should be on the bench & challenging for a place in the first team against Fulham on sunday!

12.LPP, how about you give us that Max Gradel and we’ll let you have Keogh and Kightly? Deal or no deal?

Report abuse

I hope that he does well, as the squad numbers are tight and there would be no room for Keogh and probably the Hoff.
Saturday we looked a lot more solid at the back and Hunt and Jarvis did particularly well. If we were to sell Jarvis, I hope that we tell Arsenal that you will have to pay top dollar?
Hopefully, we go out and get a central midfielder and left back. Ward did well but should be in the squad as a utility player with his main position being a forward!

“Moxey either does very well (e.g. Johnson) or very badly (far too many to mention)”

What a strange comment. What about 25K for Kightly, 500K for Jarvis, 6.5M for Doyle, Hahnneman for free, 400K for Foley, 100K for Henry, 675K for Edwards…shall I continue?

Let us not also forget recouping our exact money for Van Damme (a cracking deal given he didn’t want to stay, he was a year older, and had failed miserably at Wolves) AND getting ONE MILLION for Halford, the best deal (for us) possible for a completely rubbish, non-committed, journeyman, throw-in taker.

How is Moxey anything but spectacularly good at what he does? Would you care to name ANY of the ‘far too many to mention’ very bad deals?

should have sold him when we had the chance last season for a mill…

He will do well up Yorkshire, I was up there saturday at Blackburn, Blackburn 1 Wolves 2 a great day out on the coach.

I hope Keogh does well at Leeds. It’s always sad when a career looks to be floundering and a new start just might be good for him.
As for talk of Jarvis leaving ….. why? Good grief, he is a genuine Prem level player on the verge of an international career. Wolves need more players of his calibre, they haven’t enough to be thinking of shedding any!
Grabbing a lb and/or a cd at the price of losing such a talent up front doesn’t make much sense to me.
One look at last years stats suggest not only did we let in too many goals we didn’t score enough either.

Report abuse

Let’s hope this paves the way for the left back we’ve all been calling for, (except of course for Sir Billy Quiet)

Report abuse

I rather us get some money for Keogh, but at least he makes space, for any possible signings. On the Jarvis issue with Arsenal.. When was the last time Arsenal signed an English player over 20 years of age.. I can’t remember one.. He prefers buying players he can mould, or foreigners who play a certain way.

Report abuse

Andy Keogh should be respected and remembered for playing a major part in our promotion from the Championship.

The fact that he could not step up to the increased demands of the Premiership should not detract from his achievments as a Wolves player when we needed him most, playing alongside SEB.

I wish him well.

The colour of the Leeds strip will suit his complexion better.

The most frustrating player at Wolves in recent times. If he could find some confidence he might even be great

What do we reckon? ..Another £250 k back in the wages ‘pot’?

Probably as good a scenario as we could have hoped for

Holding out to get 2 mill from Leeds a while back… not one of our better negotiations.

Lets kick on from the good start, and bag a couple of quality players pre deadline. Still think our ’25′ is too weak behind the front 14 or so players

32. Chris. Good teamwork – thanks for that. I think we can add the likes of Shackell, where we paid a million, sent him out a lot on loan, sold him for £500K and then a season later he gets re-sold for £1m. I can’t remember if we lost money on Eastwood or not. We lost on Matt Hill when you chuck in Stephen Elliott moving in the opposite direction (although some might give a negative value to Elliott meaning we were quids in!). I could go on….

I find it odd that Ulf even cites a c. £1m loss on Halford to sing Moxey’s praises. Then he launches into one about Van Damme being excellent work when I had actually used it as the example of an okay deal when at least we didn’t lose money. I should have realised it was an excellent deal simply not to have lost money. I would also add getting money back on Surman as an okay transaction – although he must be worth more than £1.2m now but alas it was not meant to be.

I think Ulf must be a financial advisor. “You’ve only lost half your money – that’s a right result.”

Anyway, we all know why Moxey insists on undisclosed fees!

32 Chris. Joining in the throw-a-stale-pie-at-Jez Moxey so early in the season ? Like you say he’s done some good deals and some poor ones, but, it’s the manager that identifies the targets, surely. Still think, overall, he does a very good job

26 Wanderer in Eire Still trotting out the same old rubbish about Doyle. You really do need to swap that Blue Peter badge for a Coaching badge, then you might start to understand the role he plays.

Spanish Ray. From the Hoff thread. Why do you insist on accusing the 3Ms of telling lies when everybody with a brain knows it’s the media. Explain yourself, man..

Andy 41 – Do you think there is a manager or Chief Exec in real life football that has 100% success rate in player recruitment ?

Even the best managers have a long list of failures that can be reeled off…… using this as a way to be critical just shows how desperate some Wolves fans are to find something to moan about.

always give everything he has for us and was part of new regime , shame he has to leave but thats football. wish you nothing but luck andy

Kentish – it wasn’t really much of a moan. Initially, I pointed out how daft our valuation was last year for a non-core player which would only interest a Championship side. I can understand sending out young players on loan to get experience/improve but in terms of senior players who are never going to get a look in at the Molineux, surely it’s better to get rid – especially as come January, he’ll be 18 months closer to walking for nothing (from last summer’s £2m valuation) while we picked up his wages in the summer once he’d returned from his last loan spell.

I then responded to Ulf’s claim that engineering a £1m loss on Halford was a example of how well Moxey had done.

I also think that McCarthy has to take his share of the blame as well – although as you correctly point out, there are plenty of other CEO/Managers who have made complete hashes of transfers – so we’re certainly not alone.

Thanks Andy Keogh,
you done us proud, allways gave 100%,
Hope every thing works out for you at leeds!!
They need you !!
Isnt funny how many fans just dont want our club to do any better !! they are so happy and content with fighting for survival every season, and god help any fan sugesting we should bring in better players.
what happened back in the 80s most fans were saying spend money on the team (john Ireland stand built) went down and bankrupt.
know one can say whens the best time to inprove the ground but shouldn,t the squad be inproved first ??
if twelve players have left or on loan, six of them squad players, they should be replaced with better !! have we done that ?
answers on a post card please !!
over all on the + side of selling players we have not done to well, its not like we,ve made millions of £ but that might change if JARVIS goes !! not what i want but we do seem to have a lot of wingers/wide players and dont forget its one of wards prefered positions !! have we tried him in goal yet ?
got to go now me mum,s called me !! bless
