[Albion] Sheffield Wednesday home game

[pishhead]

Are we providing facilities for Yorkshire folk to tether their ferrets outside?

What are we going to do if we end up in the play off final with Wednesday and we are the 'away' side.
All those without away colours will have to go out and buy them or it's going to look like 80,000 Wednesday fans.
I don't have an away shirt, damn expensive day out that will be.
You have to think about this sort of thing you know.

Just hope Hooper/Forestieri suffer a crock as MASSIVE as those Wednesday egos before the match against us

 

[mona]

Eh? He was South African with London / Brighton links? But if a Shef W fan then probably living in the London / the South East like most of their away support..

For some reason, their forum is full of pictures of the great Sid James.

Brighton v Wednesday at the Goldstone 1976? 30k+ in the old Div 3 if I remember?

Pity its not a Sat 3pm

Not everyone at Wednesday has a ridiculously over inflated sense of entitlement. One of their posters on Owlstalk did a prediction thingy and thought it might end up like this. I doubt Hull would get 100 points.

So many people completely missing the point (joke) of this thread. Sheffield Wednesday .

 

[Stumpy Tim]

I believe it's only the corner areas we're doing the £10 deal, so unlikely to be a sell-out I would think

This is where massive clubs like Wednesday are let down by the FA. They could fill Wembley 10 times over if they reach the play-off final; Wembley is just too small for Wednesday. We need a national stadium capacity of 120k+ for these super teams.

Yep the cockney Owls will be out in force. First, second and third generation of northeners who moved saaarf.

I hope you don't feel the same about the northern Seagulls that bolster our attendances oop north.

Yorkshire has declared the day of the game a county holiday so all the locals can get out the bunting and have street parties in readiness.

They wouldn't celebrate anything Sheffield here in West Yorkshire.

So this guy thinks Hull are going to stretch their lead over us from 3 points to 17 points!

Users of predictors sometimes look at each match as a one off and thus predict wins for top teams, and regulation losses for those at the bottom. The table basically gets stretched with a high total for the top team, and a low total for the bottom team.

In predictors the top team can go along at 3 points per game, much more than the hard to achieve 2 points per game.

I know! In just 15 matches, too. Seems a tad unlikely

 

[Philbag70]

Unless, we suddenly turn into Villa, of course....

They wouldn't celebrate anything Wednesday in most of Sheffield.

Eric Potts scored for them I believe.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Isn't 'massive' a euphemism for 'overweight'?

 

[Phat Baz 68]

As far as I'm concerned EVERY game at home should be a sell out as we are near the top and vying for Premier League status.
Crowds this season have been a fair bit lower than last and I for one cannot work out why ? We're nearly ****ing there for ****s sake get your arses down to the Amex stay at homers arrgghh !!
