Favourite current Wednesday player?
Yellowbelly replied to HalloweenJack's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Byers, Adeniran & Dele Bashiru are 3 players I hope we can one day build our side around, so in that respect I take more of an interest in how they perform. -
The pure STRENGTH of Des Walker
Yellowbelly replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
No one rocks a flat top like our Des. -
Personally, I’d hoped upon relegation to league 1 we would have recruited younger players with the potential to develop and grow with the team rather than loaning other teams and doing that for them. I appreciate the pressure on Moore to get us up but perhaps with a DoF we could have approached these couple of seasons with a more long term view and take a punt on our younger players, with additions from other academy’s, to flesh out the squad. These lads could be the basis of the team for the next 5 or 6 years but we seem happy to let them walk away with little or no real first team experience to see if they are capable.

Iorfa Ihiekwe Famewu I cannot wait to hear some of the fans trying to pronounce that defence. Be like talking with a gob full of marbles.

are Wednesday losing out to derby
Yellowbelly replied to bhaigh107's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
If they start signing some of the younger players available out there who have a chance of developing then I’d start to worry/get annoyed. Right now a couple of our old squad fillers who we wouldn’t offer better deals for and links to some ageing mercenaries who seemingly unable to get better moves doesn’t particularly concern me. -
We’ve had a few approaches apparently, just couldn’t decide which of these sponsors fully represented the “Wednesday Experience”

That shirt is a thing of beauty, but it makes you wonder how the kit makers year on year manage to balls it up.

Swiss Ramble thread on Wednesday 20/21 accounts

EFL are made up of it members - the clubs- who vote on the rules and regs and are held to those rules i.e points deductions for failing P&S. PL are made up of its members - the clubs - who vote that if they fail and get relegated they are still afforded a massive sum of money to help them stabilise and get promoted the following season. This sum of money also ensures they don’t fall foul of EFL P&S rules. -
EFL could stream matches and scrap 3pm protection
Yellowbelly replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Personally, I’d love it. I don’t live locally and work most Saturdays so being able to cheekily watch on my phone whilst being paid would be perfect. Surely the club would benefit financially? -
Wait till it starts lashing it down again & we have to try and save the pitch to get a game on. Rio will literally be dancing on the sand.

Which managers from the past could succeed now?
Yellowbelly replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Mourinho has a touch of Clough about him I think. If you’re one of his trusted players then he’ll make you feel like the best player on the planet but he’s also not afraid to call you out in public if you’re not doing it for him. It’s rather a scorched earth policy and wouldn’t work at every club. -
We’re looking for a defender and a defensive midfielder so for that reason alone I wouldn’t completely disregard the opportunity for either him and/or Shaw returning. That said, I think we’re more likely to go with experience and a punt in younger players is not part of our strategy, unfortunately imo.

Second Guessing Darren Moore
Yellowbelly replied to areNOTwhatTHEYseem's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
We need a midfielder like Pritchard & a forward like Stewart. Those two bossed the games against us & with a couple of players of similar quality we could play either formation and be successful imo. If we stick with 3 at the back that’s a lot of recruitment needed.
