How do you know how the season will pan out? These might be all near bottom of league by then? In any case the only tough ones there are Leeds Sunderland and hull all away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pompeyowl Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 With a whole summer of transfer activity to come, I can see how you've come to that conclusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season had Reading, Hudds, Leeds & Fulham all up at the top, and the previous season were in the bottom half. However... simply based on last season, Leeds, Sunderland, Fulham, Hull, Reading & Norwich 'may' be tricky depending on whether they have a good transfer season. That's 6 potentially trick games out of the final 9 - a lot trickier than the season just passed. Edited June 21, 2017 by Pulcinella Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prowl Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Look on the bright side, if any of them are challenging we can take points off them. Let them worry about us, we aren't a walk over these days. As fans I think we still have an under dog mentality caused by all the years of being rubbish. We need to forget that (not easy). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxondale Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Really don't know why people get wound up about when we play who. Nobody knows who are going to be a strong side, what form they are going to be in when we play them etc. Just relax and take each game as it comes.

Good way of looking at it. I started supporting Wednesday in the 3rd division in the 70s as a kid. It's hard to shake off that underdog mentality. Got to try harder - even if only for the sake of my kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buxtongent Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 If its a tough run in, I for one will be pleased. Having watched the Owls for 70 years, its the 'easy matches ' that always scare me. The better the opposition, the better we seem to play. For instance last season - Newcastle and Burton, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
