Sheffield Wednesday forum

[Seagull on the wing]

Wednesday still have this "Big Club" syndrome,they go on about their past and how many they can seat...their stadium shipped more water than the Titanic and had to call off 3 games,they cannot fill 5o% of their stadium,they are 9 points off the play offs and 5 from relegation.....woeful!

Having read through all of that Owlstalk tripe (Northern term) I am shattered. There is never going to be a winner when two polarised sets of fans start debating the merits of their respective lots, but Lord Almighty. I feel sorry for some of them as I'm sure there are plenty of decent fans amongst them but some of them need taking around the back & put out of their misery (hmmmm, probably not the best turn of phrase!)

I thought they'd be happy that we sent Agent Micky to Sheffield Utd so they could renew their rivalry next season.

Pages and pages of "my Dad's bigger than your Dad". Who cares.

Sounds like some of their fans were acting like right morons at Rochdale too...

Sheffield Wednesday are currently on target to finish the season with 64 points.

If we play the rest of our games as badly as 24th placed Walsall have played so far this season (ie 0.77 points per game) ... we'll still finish above them - on 65 points.

This needs an update.

With 36 points from 28 games (1.29 points per game), Sheffield Wednesday are currently on target to finish the season with 59 points (14th or 15th in the table).

If we play the rest of our games as badly as 24th placed Bristol Rovers have played so far this season (ie 0.90 points per game) ... we'll finish miles above them (probably in a play-off position) - on 72 points.

But the response by all those commenting confirms the embarrassment felt by their rest of their fans - who come across as overwhelmingly decent. Same as at any other club. Including ours.

Why are we stalking Wednesday? Do we really care?

Why are we stalking Wednesday? Do we really care?

Exactly. There was also a period when it was Southampton. Every other thread was about our deluded chums along the coast!

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Hardly stalking. It's one thread about a team we all expected to be challenging at the top at the start of the season and who still expect to walk the league despite being closer to the bottom than the top. It's interesting.

PS TMLS - are you on the blob? You seem a tad grumpy today.

Yes. Yes I am!

Sheffield Wednesday are not the only fans to perpetuate that we are a dirty team.

There seems to be a common consensus amongst Bournemouth and Southampton fans that Calderon is dirty and we are a cheating, diving, imaginary card waving team, as well as being exceedingly boring.

and we are a cheating, diving, imaginary card waving team,

As their fans saw El-Abd go dwn clutching his face - it is not a massive leap.

"When I saw the squad we had assembled I thought we would hammer this division. I was thinking 100pts for the season would not be unrealistic. Feel a bit foolish now."

Compulsive reading this.

Amusing how the discussion on 'OwlsTalk' is now about how they avoided relegation /potentially fall fowl of it this year!

Oh well, you get used to it...

 

[armchairclubber]

Oh dear, another drubbing.... to Tranmere. How long will Megson get ??

Has anyone posted this on Owlstalk? Childish, I know. But would be funny.

I would think somebody would have, but owlstalk seems to have gone down as quickly as their team.

 

[Joey Deacon's Disco Suit]

No point posting on there. Let's save it for when one of the big teams in this division lose.

 

[Da Man Clay]

Could do with them starting to beat some of the top 6. They aren't going to catch us now so would be handy for them to take points off team that can. I'm more worried about Orient than Sheffield Wens!!
