Hillsborough Stadium, Sheffield.

15:00 Saturday, 14 January 2017.

 

 

TODAY’S OPPOSITES

 

When he’s not racing around the universe in his big shiny spaceship, Patrick Stewart likes nothing more than to watch his beloved Huddersfield Town, eat a pie and down 16 pints of beer. No one knows if he will be beaming down to Hillsborough today, but one thing is for sure - he will not be allowed to interfere with the match using his 24th Century technology as the Udders are playing away from home.

As usual, there is one visitor that we can definitely count on. DJ Smile will be on the Lepp with all his crew, busting moves and belting out the finest rap lyrics to cheer their boys on to their 7000th undefeated match in a row. If you are confused by this stat, it can be explained quite simply -  Huddersfield must concede by at least 6 goals for it to count as a loss.

 

 

 

 

 

 

MATCHDAY THINGS

 

Official Matchday Pie: Terrier and Mushroom.

Sheffield Wednesday striker Gary Hooper could return after seven weeks out with a hamstring injury.

Full-back Morgan Fox will be hoping to make his debut after being ineligible for the FA Cup defeat by Middlesbrough.

 

Casey Palmer is a doubt for Huddersfield, while Jonathan Hogg and Rajiv van la Parra are out. Nahki Wells and Aaron Mooy are among a number of players set to return after being rested for their FA Cup victory over Port Vale.

    ▪    The Owls haven't lost any of their last six league meetings with Huddersfield (W4 D2) and have won the last three.

 

    ▪    The Terriers have only failed to score in two of their previous 25 league visits to Hillsborough, and have scored 13 goals in their last six games there.

 

    ▪    The Owls have kept clean sheets in their last three home league games - they haven't kept four in a row since October 2008.

 

    ▪    Huddersfield are 18 points better off at this stage of the season (46) than they were in 2015/16, when they had just 28 points from 25 games.

 

    ▪    Four of Nahki Wells' last five Championship goals have been scored in the 80th minute or later, with two of them winners in away games (against Burton and Wigan)

KING CARLOS’ PEARLS OF WISDOM

 

“Huddersfield are doing really very well, of course they are doing well because they are in a good position. But not just the points and the position they have achieved at this moment, but also the quality of the games. They are one of the teams with quality, they deserve their position and it will be a tough game. The last three games they have played away, they have won all three.

But we are Sheffield Wednesday, we are playing in Hillsborough with our fans, we are in sixth position, in nine games we lose just one. Understanding and respecting our opponents, with our fans behind us we can fight to the three points, absolutely. We can achieve this but again, we will need that extra energy from our fans because when the game is more difficult, we need the fans to support the team.”

Brilliant OMTD again Pauli!

Hope the lads are up for this as its not gonna be an easy match!

Also I've suddenly developed a hatred for their manager Wagner for no other reason other than I think he's a smug weird príck and I'd love Wednesday to smash them 4-0 but I'm gonna go for the realistic prediction of a Wednesday win 2-1 with hooper and reach scoring!

 

RELEASE THE LLAMA

AND UPSET THE WAGNER!

KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR MISSUS

COS NUHIU WILL AV' HER!

 

Come on Wednesday!!!

UTO!

good stuff yet again pauli (off subject but wow Pirates of St pauli gone to dogs!)

 

 

Finished 4th last season. 11 points from a possible 51 so far this time out. No one seems to know whats gone wrong.

They have the winter break to sort it out.

Season tickets will be a bit cheaper in div 3 though.

Morning all, 

 

Nice one Pauli, great work. :laugh:

 

I'm a expecting a big improvement on our performance tomorrow.  Reckon Winnall will have a debut to remember.  


So I'm going for a 3-1 Wednesday win, a brace from Winnall and McManaman getting the other.

 

LETS AVE IT!!

 

COME ON WEDNESDAY!!!
