Agree even down to 10 men we played some good football, dont know how Vaulks shot stayed out, but the defence once again was a nightmare, both of their goals should have been cleared or at least challenged properly. Arguably thats 3 points dropped already because we cant defend crosses.

BBC fan vote: all-time Premier League XI
elyowl1 replied to Kopparberg's topic in General Football Chat
Maybe its just a long time ago, but throughout the 90s when Man Utd turned up i expected a win, didnt really rate their defence. On the other hand Arsenal i always expected a defeat their defence seemed like an impregnable wall. Obviously neither on a par with Nilsson though -

Always suprises me Neville gets in these, luck of playing for Man Utd at the right time I guess. Certainly dont think he was really any better than Dixon, Watson, Petrescu or Lauren of his contemporaries -
Late and high, that challenge goes in on one of our players, everybody saying not a red would be clamoring for one for the opposition player.

Peterboro' - V - Wednesday - OMDT
elyowl1 replied to Lord Snooty's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Positives we looked the better team for a good part of the game. Negatives Defending crosses still not resolved both goals should have been defended far better. Not convinced with Stockade one iota Need to get a couple more bodies in sharpish -

Whatever the final score is tonight, been by far the better team. By far the best performance so far this term -

Very positive start -
Have the last three games given you confidence?
elyowl1 replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Reserve judgement until after the next two, both very very tricky games and losing both games is far more likely than winning both. I think one point from the two games will be the outcome. For me the level of performance in the games will be just as important as the result. -
Our best midfield contains Byers

Hasn't looked as sharp and half a yard slower this season, it happens. Pudil's legs went quickly, literally over half a season you say the difference in performance. -

Agree, this season he will take over from Bannan as the first name in our midfield. Bannan is still an outstanding player to have but he seems to be a little slower, age sadly catching up. -
I was there but have no recollection of the game, i look at my program collection to remind which games I've been to occasionally, some like this nothing memorable stood out so booted from the memory banks.

Certainly give some of them a good game, probably struggle against the very top teams. Obviously standards change but one of our former players kicked around our lower Leagues then played for MLS side Orlando but that was about 20 years ago. Can be quite difficult to judge English Leagues relative quality as the sheer influx of foreign players over the years into the Premier League have forced many players to drop down a League and in turn forced others to do the same.

And in true Wednesday style buggered up winning the League after being the first team promoted.

Hirst would be a very astute signings in many ways. Would get fans back on Chansiris side Decent player for this level He wants to wear the shirt Mend the rift between the chairman and one of our legends. Boost the morale of the fans. No saying t will happen, but compromises on each side it may happen and would be good for both parties in many ways.
