Hooper demanded a VIP box!

[Greenie78 0]

Sheffield Wednesday’s loan move for Gary Hooper fell through after the Owls turned down the striker’s request for a VIP box at Hillsborough!

LOL!

Well his bums getting sore sitting on the bench so he thought he would go for comfort at Wednesday!!

Yeh, that''ll be the ONLY reason why that deal fell through.....................

Just said on Twitter that it''s rubbish.

Hooper''s tweeted "Not true"

[Peanuts 154]

While I''m sure there was a little bit more to it than that, it does make for a fun story.

[Ginja 43]

Because Hooper can''t possibly be lying, of course Hooper will deny it, I would.

Who cares anyway? I''m glad he stayed.

The absolute state of some of you lot.

*shrugs* No smoke without fire and no I don''t trust him.

That two clubs unable to agree terms with him, he knows he''s not wanted by AN, clearly values his PL salary above actually playing football, it''s fair enough but to me it says something about his character. There something to this and though I take the news with a pinch of salt, I don''t fully believe Hooper either.

[/quote]Do you honestly, honestly believe that if he wanted a move away, that a minor issue over a VIP box would make him pull the plug on the deal?Really?

[Legend Iwan 30]

If it is not true, as Hooper claims in his Tweet, then you''d expect him to sue The Star for libel. If he doesn''t...

Just the VIP Box? No. Like I said though, a pinch of salt, it''s a part of the truth I imagine.

The real issue here is yet another bad apple in the team.

[Branston Pickle 4,151]

What a pile of garbage - but just so obvious that there will be a load of our ''supporters'' who a) believe it and/or won''t be able to help but use it against the player/club whenever possible...

[/quote]Bad apple?So Bradley wants to get away for regular football and we wish him well.Hooper probably wants to do the same, and he''s a bad apple?

The key difference being BJ saw he wasn''t wanted took the deal and a significant wage cut. Hooper didn''t.

Says it all really, I know who I''d rather have stayed.

[/quote]So you know for sure Hooper pulled the plug on the deal?It couldn''t be the case that we did, because we plan on letting pouty Grabban rot in the reserves, and we actually still need Hooper?Is that just as likely as your scenario?

[Faded Jaded Semi Plastic SOB 1,223]

The fact that somebody visits The Star website is worrying, let alone believing what they read!!......

Oh I think there''s some merit to that theory, but yes I think it is Hooper''s personal terms currently blocking these moves.  I am certainly very interested to see our 25-man squad some truth may surface with it. I think Grabban is more likely to be a part of it than Hooper, but maybe our failure with Gayle means they will both stay. Personally I think Grabban will stay and Hooper will go when the loan window opens again.

I hope there is a little bit of truth in it. Stand your ground, son, you hold out for a vip box.  It is the least you deserve.  You can watch the matches from it while you wonder why your new team don''t play you and why you don''t get more game time at Norwich.

[Guest]

I could understand the controversy if he''d demanded a VIP box at Sheffield Utd.

[ca 1]

A story which has already proved to be rubbish, why do people make them up ughhhhhhhh

[Bex 4]

Some of you lot are embarrassing. You are sharing a report from ''The Star'' and some of you are actually calling Hooper a LIAR?! Fucking hell I hate this messageboard

[unique 466]

The most likely scenario is that Norwich pulled the deal.

When it was clear that another striker other than Mbokani wouldn''t be coming through the door, they were hardly likely to allow Hooper out on loan with the Grabban situation remaining uncertain.

[Legend Iwan 30]

CityAngel, could you point me in the direction of where the report''s been shown to be rubbish please?

Also, for those arguing about trusting the paper, it was the local Sheffield ''Star'' that contained this morning''s VIP box report, not the national ''Daily'', in case that makes a difference.
