Guest Sheff Owl Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I'm sure everytime the commentary team bigged up Leicester they we're dribbling at the mouth, i couldn't believe what i was hearing. Anthony Knockaert man of the match? Really? Even the presenter (Simon Thomas?) was getting in on the Leicester loving.. Hardly any credit for us today, losing two key players to injury, playing the top of the league who normally sweep teams aside at home and nothing. No denying Leicester are a good team and they deserve to be top of the league but i'm sure they was playing someone else tonight?, I'm sure there was 2 teams involved? Pathetic.

WayneTheOwl Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 To be fair I think they gave us quite a lot of praise. They are reporting a story, one for a team that has pissed this league. Along come little Wednesday, they wanted Goliath slaying, it didn't happen. The Leicester bandwagon continues. In May 2015 they will be back with us in the Championship. Bandwagon over.

Wasn't going to be any other way unfortunately pal, Pearsons interview just wound me up as much. Just glad that little ****** Beagrie wasn't there to cream his infant sized boxers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingOwl Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) 'Lavery running at Schlupp...and doing quite well' - how patronising can you get! If any Leicester player was man of the match it was Drinkwater. But Knockeart scored the winner...was always going to be MOTM. Goals are always going to be rated more highly than midfielders who run the show or solid defenders. If I had my way the Championship player of the season wouldn't of been Ings, it would have been either Drinkwater or Trippier.

Carl Shutt is God Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I guess it was always going to be like that as they are top of the league but it was quite sickening. Leicester were good in the first 15 mins but didn't really do much after that especially the 2nd half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was peeing me off so much when they said that, you would have thought we were a conference club playing at a premiership side way they tried to belittle us.

dan27 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Have a word with yourselves. Did you expect it to be any different? We'd be moaning if we were in their position and they hadn't had a bit of a love in with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sheff Owl Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 You can expect them to be a tiny bit over the top with Leicester but that was just awful. Two injuries to CB's and no credit to us for still attacking and could have won that on another day, Leicester was great tonight but you would have thought we was playing Barcelona according to them.

ashley8 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Leicester love in even with Best up front we looked like we were up there with them. They did give us credit but patronizing well they gave it a go. Send Best bk n give Madine the games for us. Best won't do any better then Madine might get some confidence ready for preseason. Hope Grey gets backing if this is what he can do with what we have already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldishowl Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I turned the commentary off. They did not even bother to interview gray at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Sl-OWL-ly Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 How come they only had a Leicester pundit, thought they liked to be seen as fair and equal so shouldn't there have been a former Wednesday player / manager with them ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WatfordOwl Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Fair enough Leicester are on the verge of the Prem and there was always going to be that behind promoting the game for any non Leicester/Owls fans but having the punditry with just one view from a Leicester legend is a bit wrong imo. The commentary is pretty cack for the Championship...........reminds me of one of those fill-in radio dj's who is the prequel to the main attraction coming up. We were unlucky not to get anything tonight but that wasn't the fault of the commentators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewowl Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Just imagine the love in/ Spunk fest they will have if we are running away with it in the next few seasons ? there will still be some who want to moan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
