    Thompson has had a terrible week

    in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday

    Posted

    For those who said no thanks to us appointing an experienced championship manager just look what McCarthy  is doing at Cardiff. You need experience to get out of the complete and utter mess we are in and Thompson has proved he isn’t up to it with crap decisions made this week I’m afraid we have League one written all over us . Thanks Chansiri

    Windass - Bid accepted

    in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday

    Think Windass could be a decent signing.We need a couple of more experienced players in, who have an "edge" to their game, that can help the younger lads during games and put a foot in when necessary.This season is going to be a dog fight to stay up and we will need players like Windass who have a bit of nastiness in them.I am sick of seeing us bullied on the pitch.

    BREAKING NEWS - EFL VERDICT - 12 POINTS

    in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday

    Posted

    Without doubt the chairman has made a complete mess of our finances and failed to hire proper "football people" and yes is 100% at fault for the situation we find ourselves in.However, we can overcome -12 points and survive next season, its up to GM to prove his worth and for us to back the team not matter how angry, frustrated or totally pissed off we feel.

    Given the very real possibility of no crowds, season ticket refunds etc next season amid the ongoing pandemic we may find that we are grateful to have a wealthy chairman who is willing to spend his money to keep our beloved club afloat when there could be little or no income.So lets give him a chance to make up for his failings, after all, I'm sure he wants what we want otherwise why else would he have bought the club given the huge amount a grief most football chairmen receive.

    I'm really not confident that there is a queue of potential buyers out there for us as even the wealthy will be concerned whilst ever Covid 19 is around.

    Chins up fellow Owls we will come back from this but we need to all stick together and continue our support for our club and just maybe we might be pleasantly surprised by GM and the boys........give them a chance.  

     

    Can’t give up on Wednesday

    I can’t give up on Wednesday now. We aren’t even at our lowest ebb. I am 63 and so know the lowest ebb. I was brought up in S6, live there still and have done for most of my life. I was brought up to believe that those in the blue and white stripes were heroes, and I still can’t fully shake that off, even though I know the real heroes are in the NHS.  I am a bit of a happy clapper and am a season ticket holder of many years standing. I always enjoy going to the game, but often it has been more for the routine, to get out,  to see friends for a couple of beers beforehand, and even to see my wider group of friends who I know entirely from the kop.

     

    So it is hard for me to say this, but I haven’t missed it. I have watched on ifollow and thought I detected some improvement under 3-5-2, but now feel that any optimism was misplaced.  I even regret getting my early bird ticket as I probably won’t be able to go anyway. We are almost totally reliant on Mr Chansari’s generosity, and I have no confidence that much will change over the summer under current management. I was shocked to be voting Monk out in the owlstalk poll, that isn’t like me. I generally support the manager to a fault. But his team are shot, they have no confidence and collapse at the end of games. I expect my favourite (Keiren Lee) to be gone with many others and for us to be weaker at the start of next season than we are now. Monk has had a poor deal here, but I have no confidence that he can inspire a turn round, let alone make up for a point deduction if we are still in the Championship. In my experience Wednesday only do well with a big character in charge. 

     

    So I am about as low as I can get with Wednesday, the injury time goal last night showed us to be capable of losing to a team that weren’t even trying to win, I feel down about it, and not even knowing what division we will be in fills me with trepidation, it certainly makes our situation trickier still.  So all I can say now is come on you blue and white wizards, Wednesday fans will not forsake you now! 

    I think we are all pretty much cut from the same cloth.We love them, we curse them and at times we hate them and then we love them again.

    We are born Owls we are faithful to the end and no matter what we will always support our beloved Wednesday.Like many I am really down in the dumps about such a thoroughly miserable season, however, when next season kicks off regardless of which division we find ourselves in I will be there cheering on the blue& white wizards either at home or hopefully at Hillsboro believing that it might just be "our season" and they will make us proud again.Whatever they will always be one of the love's of my life!
