Anyone else finding it wierd to be excited about a signing that played for that lot for so long?

The last experienced defender "that played for that lot for so long" we signed did a fine job for us (Ally Robertson).

Bit before my time haha. I'm not being serious it's just kind of a wierd feeling. Dawson is a solid signing I'm happy with

 

[SuperGran]

It’s not an exciting signing but a solid one and what we need
welcome Craig to the pack

If it keeps us in the prem I don't care

 

[glorybox]

Let’s hope he isn’t like Agent Johnson..!

Let’s hope he isn’t like Agent Johnson..!

Fingers crossed.

I’m still convinced that Agent Coady is doing a good job of guaranteeing one of those relegation spots is filled though

Ally Robertson was a great signing. We also got three other players from the Albion at that time. Thommo, Dennison and some chap whose name I can’t remember. …

Welcome Craig! What an experienced and much liked Centre Back for us to have captured.

Thread title change now required!

Really excellent signing

I know the history just hasn't happened for a while so feels slightly odd.

 

[Monketron]

Good signing for when we want to go 5 at the back and will be great in the dressing room too, will he be a starter in a 4?

@LosgallardosWolf time to update the title

Hobbs | 'We’re bringing another leader into the group'

Sporting director Matt Hobbs says Craig Dawson was on the target lists of both the recruitment team and Julen Lopetegui, so his arrival provides a big boost to the club.

[Sussex Wolf]

Looks like another good and important signing. Welcome to Wolves Craig.

 

[Sedgley Gold N Black]

West Ham fans seem gutted about this one which is hopefully a good sign, doesn’t seem like the club were too pleased about losing him either looking at the short leaving message on the website. Something that hasn’t gone down well with the fans.

If he does as well as Bully, Tommo, Dennison and Ally Robertson I don’t give a ****.

 

[Wolf in Kenilworth]

Welcome Craig.

 

[Scallywolf]

He’s played for West Brom, Watford, West Ham and now Wolves.

He’ll be off to Walsall when his contract expires!

Welcome , welcome , welcome Craig.

 

[Cousins78]

Good signing, sounds like he has wanted to come here for a while too. Hopefully puts pressure on Collins and Kilman which can only be good

 

[WolvTown]

Very good signing. Also glad that JL values some of our previous scouting options, as we wanted Dawson here before JL joined.
Dawson is here to push Collins on the right?
So Mosquera possibly out on loan?
... and NO NEVES IN DEFENCE!

 

[GY Wolf]

Good to see that Hobbs et al. understand that we need more leaders across the dressing room.

 

[SteveBullsKnee]

Good solid signing. Although shows the lunacy in letting Saiss go in the summer. He wanted two years and they’d only give him one so now we’ve paid £3 million for an older player and give him a longer contract. I wasn’t bothered about boly going (he’s gone as as a player, too many injuries/I’ll ness) or Coady as he couldn’t play in a back 4 but Saiss should have been kept

 

[Perton Wolf]

Good signing for when we want to go 5 at the back and will be great in the dressing room too, will he be a starter in a 4?

Once he's fully up to speed with how Lopetegui wants our CBs to play then he should be, he's better and more experienced than Collins & Kilman.

 

[92WWFC]

I'm a big fan of Collins and Kilman and think they are our starting CB partnership down the road. But I'd start Dawson over one of them for now both will learn a lot from him and be better placed in seasons to come to be the starting pairing if they have that extra experience alongside them.

Wow, check the comments! Not a single bad word said. They’re all gutted.

 

[Southdownswolf]

**** Lyon ....

 

[wwbug]

Part of our rebalancing .
Loved Coady and he captained England so standards very high and not easy to replace .
Dawson can help big time. I expect almost every one of our back line to improve with his help.

Don’t think I’ve ever seen such a unanimous set of positive comments around a player leaving.

Welcome Craig, great to have you on board.

Ally Robertson was a great signing. We also got three other players from the Albion at that time. Thommo, Dennison and some chap whose name I can’t remember. …

Don Goodman also repented when he saw the Old Gold light shining in the distance when he was in purgatory ( also know as Sandwell ) Then after a spell of missionary work among a tribe known as The Mackems, he returned to do much good work at The Golden Molineux Temple.

 

[Longford Wolf]

He’s played for West Brom, Watford, West Ham and now Wolves.

He’ll be off to Walsall when his contract expires!

Welcome , welcome , welcome Craig.

Don’t forget he started at Wochdale.

Nah; Wochdale surely?

 

[SmiffyWolf]

What was needed at the back and now Collins abd Kilman have to perform or benched

 

[sillytuna]

If dawson and collins can play together, they'd be my starters. Collins is dominating challenges now and just needs the benefit of experience next to him to cut out the silliness.
