Over 1,400 Owls fans have snapped up their tickets

No but then they don't go around telling people that Sussex is the greatest county in t'world whilst living in Essex.

Yes I do

I would say we have the same amount of games as they do within 40 miles of Hillsborough!! Just being pedantic.... They don't get it though...you try and explain it to them and they just say our support is shit!! Had a similar discussion with a Leeds fan!

FWIW they have 3 games within 40 miles (Leeds, Rotherham, Huddersfield), we have none.

We travel an average 382 miles round trip, Wednesday 224 miles.

And yes, they will have more southern based fans than we have northern based ones, so the actual mileage travelled will be a bigger difference.

To be fair to the southern based Leeds fans, an awful lot of them travel a lot of miles to the home games regularly.

I have no particular affinity to SW fans ..in fact some of them can be a tad annoying (like some of ours) ..but good to see a fair number come (to watch them lose) as it adds to the atmosphere and my footballing experience ..just my tuppence worth

The more Wednesday the better. Atmosphere and coffers boosted. I am meeting a couple of London based ones (old work colleagues) in Brighton for beer first.

I'm not. For some horrible reason I am extremely nervous about tonight's game.

Me too. They're a good side even without Foresteri, and will be desperate to bounce back from that defeat against Rotherham.

.....and we are a good side with nearly a full squad available, desperate to continue our good home form.

Both a knob and a Wednesday legend. Think he had the same Amex seat last season, when he spent most of the match posing for selfies with his adoring fellow fans.

So, I have spent 33 years doing research on drugs to prevent sudden cardiac death, and there is a photo of a tyke who looks like he's spent at least 33 years doing his best to jiggle his fatty ticker into his colon, and blast it into the face of the poor bugger standing behind him. Sometimes I wonder why I bother

Fans of tabloid 'Spot the ball' competitions will have, no doubt, played their own 'Spot the moderately-amusing-heckler' variant. Clue; it isn't the chubby funster.
