malek Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Likes of Stobbs and Penney get plaće on the bench for last couple of games ? With not much toplay for it would be great opportunity to give ccouple of very talented youngsters some precious experience early in their careers with us.

Lord Snooty Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Get them in. Hopefully miss a sitter and get a proper volley of abuse. Good experience of what it's like to play at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest totemowl Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I'd rather see us finish with a few wins and a lotta goals. Probably more likely to see Stobbs and Penney tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Snooty Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 or come in score a beauty and get proper volley of praise. Good experience of what it's like to play at home. Sannettis goal was 17 years ago Tink! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever the pessimist Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 No, want to put best side out to beat Leeds sc*m This. And I suppose we should do our best vs Bournemouth and Watford to preserve the integrity of the competition. Fairness in football and all that. . .

FlyingOwl Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 (edited) I would say no to be honest, maybe Stobbs on the bench at a push. We still have Bournemouth and Watford to play. We owe it to other teams to make this title/promotion/play off chase as fair as possible. We put out our strongest side vs Brentford and should be doing the same against Bournemouth and Watford. Furthermore our only other game is Leeds & I want to batter them. I also don't think it's an appropriate environment to give a kid his debut so a definite no to Penney for that one. Would rather have Stobbs on the bench than Maghoma though. Edited April 15, 2015 by FlyingOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darklord Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 We could finish 9th might not mean much to some but the higher the better so keep putting out the best team we can and Cat momentum into the next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parkerowl Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Id rather just finish as high as we can. Over 60 points would give us a really good base to push on from. Add 6 wins onto what we've done this year and we are playoffs for a cert next year. If we can sort the home form out then that really is possible.

alanharper Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I'd rather have my grandma on the bench than Maghoma and she's been dead for 7 years... I'd rather have Swintonowl's girlfriend on the bench and she's a fictional character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frastheowl Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I don't see the clamour for youngsters to get there place on the bench, in the last couple of games of the season. We did it last year with Stobbs, but where's it got him? He's not got anywhere near the first team side despite us playing a full season lacking serious numbers (and some would say, quality) in the wide areas. Surely if these lads are good enough, they'd get the places on the bench, and more importantly, the first team, throughout the season, not just for a couple of games when the seasons fizzling out, as a token gesture. Don't take this as a post lamenting the usage of academy players, because I'd love us to get some of our own products through and into the first team. But, surely we haven't got any currently, that cut the mustard. So why expose them to the first team, when they clearly aren't ready (like Stobbs appeared last year)?

FlyingOwl Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 (edited) Couldn't give a flying fu*k about other clubs! Do what's best for Sheffiled Wednesday especially long term Here's a scenario. Next season we're in 3rd place with 3 games remaining. We have to win all 3 games but also rely on teams who's seasons have finished to give a good and fair account of themselves against our promotion rivals. There'd be absolute uproar on here if say.....Charlton decided to take their foot off the gas and blood through several youngsters against a promotion rival of ours, and let them romp to a 6-0 win condemning us to a play off place...potentially ruining our chances of promotion altogether. We may have nothing to play for but we have a massive say in the promotion race and have already put Brentford to the sword. To ensure that the best teams get what they deserve we have to play our best available eleven. These things can come back to bite you on the backside. Stobbs can appear from the bench, I'd be fine with that. But there's still points to play for and we should be looking to finish as high as possible. I'm all for bringing young lads through, but that should be started in preseason....not at the end of the season when we've got two games against top 3 opposition, with a Yorkshire derby sandwiched inbetween.

Swiss Toni Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I think they should only play if they're good enough. Why play them if not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
