And how many seasons did it take you to get out of the Championship? And how long will you stay up? Hull have just gone down. You'll not see any gloating about that, even though we lost to them in the final last year. They deserved to win. You see, we don't bear grudges like you. It ain't our...
It's because it's a Friday night match. It's a pity, because had it been at the weekend then I'm sure Wednesday would have sold their allocation, even though it is on TV and at the other end of the country.
Well, Wednesday are not playing well at all, and have been riding their luck recently for my money. Huddersfield missed a couple of good chances in the first half, and it came back to haunt them. That said, the better the opposition, the better the Owls seem to play. And Wednesday did defeat...
Ha ha, no I'm not. But glad you accepted my tongue-in-cheek post as I intended it to be received. Personally, I don't think Wednesday will be in the promotion mix-up this season. The blueprint for a non-parachute club is Middlesborough, and I think that the Seagulls conform to that model far...
It's clear that this victory means a great deal to you all, and rightly so. I guess you must feel how I would if the Owls went to the Nou Camp or the Bernabeu and triumphed. Lol Perhaps a statue of Hughton should be unveiled outside the Amex to mark the victory, coins minted, commemorative mugs...
Touched a raw nerve there, obviously. Lol. In the end, it's about what you want your match-day experience to be...especially after a 200-mile journey. I've lived in the area for 50 years, so it's based on experience not bigotry. There are good people everywhere, and not all Crucians are bad...
I'm an OwIs fan. I wouldn't sup in any of the pubs in Hillsborough, owing to the clientele. That's nothing to do with football, it's just that Hillsborough is a focal point for all the undesirables from the surrounding housing estates, namely the Parson Cross. I read somewhere that it's the...
Lol. Rotherham used to average around 3000, although I think they're up to 8000 now. Owls fans usually refer to Rotherham as "toytown". They have a sort of love-in with Sheffield United. Wednesday have more of an affinity with Barnsley, and Blades fans often refer to Wednesday as "south...
In fairness, this business about Brighton's players coming to Hillsborough is news to me. What's on Owlstalk isn't representative of the club's fanbase as a whole. This "massive" thing was originally said tongue in cheek, and it is now used as a stick to beat the club with. It's ludicrous. Until...
Thank goodness for an intelligent reply. Of course I can understand that there is disappointment. As I said, I'd have wanted Brighton to get promoted had they won the semis, and I mean that sincerely. I can't speak for all our fan base, but Owls fans I know certainly would have backed Brighton...
There's obviously a great deal of residual bitterness towards the Owls. You didn't get to the final because you didn't put your chances away at the Amex. That's not Wednesday's fault, and it's your own players you should be lambasting. And had you got to the final you'd probably have lost, as we...
Yes, I'd be surprised if Albion loaned him to Wednesday, but there seems to be a lot of speculation about it here. Our policy seems to be loan now, buy later. Most of the business done this window to date has been signing up permanently players we have had on loan, usually on 3 1/2 year...
