Sheffield Wednesday.

Do the melts on Owlstalk still think we are the 'tinpot' ones?

 

[Silent Bob]

I thought Wednesday were absolutely shit tonight. I mean really shit, not just a bit phooey but totally and utterly crap that they get the vote for the worst side at the Amex so far.

Assuming you didn't go the Barnsley game.

After tonight filed under the heading 'Absolute Shite'

so funny that before the game, according to 'owlstalk' we were a tinpot side no-one had ever heard of. Now after the game, we're a top side looking at a top four finish. hmmmm?

That is a bit harsh....they were'nt good by any means....but way better than Barnsley....they played a containing game till the first goal which was a deflection from there on they were taken apart by a ball playing side who were a joy to watch.....not many teams are going to get points at the Amex this season.

Well done on your 3-0 win against the Owls last night, sounds like by all your comments that it was a great game and you're top of the league at least til 3pm.
What was the attendance?

A bit more balanced, but we could easily have been two up before we got the slightly lucky first goal. I expected Wednesday to be big and powerful, and quick on the break.....well, they were big, but not much more than that. How many times did Llera just hoof from the back? How many times did their attacks break down because they simply ran out of ideas? Did Bothroyd look interested?

I was also surprised that for the WHOLE first half Wednesday just allowed us to play the ball out from the back. Didn't Dave Jones watch us beforehand? OK, he changed it at half time, but as a result they began to leave gaps in midfield which Bruno just ran into.

Having said all that, if Bothroyd can be bothered they will probably do quite well this season. I quite like Dave Jones, so I'll be interested to see how they do.

Oh - one final thing - if they benchmark themselves against Dirty L**ds, then they have a long, long way to go in terms of support (quantity, passion, sound levels, etc)

The SSN highlights on the 'Amexnorthstand' facebook page said "a record Amex crowd of over 26 and a half thousand", don't know how accurate that is.

Yes they do. They don't like it that we aren't tinpot, but there's nothing they can do about it, so they still call themselves MASSIVE and everyone else tinpot.
I think most of their fans were pretty shit last night. No noise at all until the last 5mins.

Thanks pal, I was expecting closer to 30,000 but still fantastic support.
Well done again and good luck for the rest of the season except against us

Probably best we don't have 30,000 just yet, we only have 27,000 capacity. By the end of the season wel'll be up to the magical 30k number.

I wonder if Poyet regrets the nice words he wrote about Wednesday's style of "football", it wasn't in evidence at ALL.

Just had a scroll through this. What a bunch of jumped up twats. It appears that they thought they were going to come up and walk this league. A nice reality check dished out at the Amex. Long way to go but we're looking well set for a cracking season.

You forget Barnsley? They were TOILET.

I thought Barnsley were better, at least they tried to play

 

[Saltydog]

How odd - double post......came back to my laptop tofind the "post preview page" for my earlier quote..... so edited out!

 

[Triggaaar]

Wednesday fans seem quite polarised. A lot of very fair reactions and nice compliments to us (not easy to be fair when you feel like shit after losing 3 nil) and a lot anti homosexual comments by the other idiots.

 

[El Turi]

The only Wednesday player who was half decent was Johnson. Llera was awful and Martin Taylor was still the thug that he always has been. He could quite easily have broken Barnes leg just like when he broke Eduardo's leg a few years ago.
