Owls_fan_since_1983 Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Come on Wednesday. There will be tears for those who are no longer with us no matter what the result is. It is our biggest game for a while. I am sure the Wednesday fans who are no longer with us, will be be watching and hopefully bouncing away.

Pxowl1867 Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 My grandad Layton Eratt, who died earlier this year. Watched Wednesday for 93 years and only matches he missed, was when he was when he was in the RAF in the war and when illness finally stopped him just before he died. He used tell me about title winning side and fa cup win and early 60s side. RIP grandad and to all other owls who can't be there tomorrow. Hope your all looking down.

WatfordOwl Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 They'll all be smiling down and willing us on tomorrow. Just over 11 years since I lost a very special member of the Wednesday family, much loved and missed. Cardiff brought tears and I'm sure tomorrow will but for very different reasons. Respects to all who have lost someone close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddogbob Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 My mum passed away 3 years ago. She followed us all over during the poor times. She would have loved this team. I'm sure she will be watching on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roscoe P. Coltrane Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 My dad passed away 14 years ago used to love his stories about the old sides he used to go and watch, especially when he was 11 going to see The Wednesday bringing the cup home in 1935, miss you Jack WAWAW.

Bolsterstone Owl Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 To my lovely dad, thanks for taking me to my first game, York City, home, November 1974. I was with you at your last game, Wycombe, home 2012. In that time we missed just 11 home games in those 38 years. Loved every minute. Know you'll be cheering us on from high tomorrow. Thanks dad.

Guest Viewfromtheeastbank Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 My Grandad George Hughes (penistone owl) and my uncle Steven Hughes (chappletown owl). Lifelong owls. My uncle was a season ticket holder on the north.... They both made sure I grew up supporting the owls.. They are the reason I'm going tomorrow and taking my 6 year old daughter .. It's all about making memories for her.. I know they'll both be looking down with pride at us tomorrow and I know they'd love this team ... Fly high you two xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYCOWL Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 My Grandad, long gone now, though I think about him all the time. First introduced me to the phrase "RUBBISH WEDNESDAY!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReginaldD Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Liam Riley. There with me at Leicester in our final Premier League game 16 years ago. There with me at Rushden & Diamonds, Stockport, Port Vale. There with me at the Millennium Stadium and for the beam back at Hillsborough. Should be in the prime of his life cheering on our beloved Owls together at Wembley tomorrow. Absolutely no embarrassment to say I'll be shedding a few tears if we manage to do it. To absent friends. Well said JJ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jowl Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 (edited) My dad passed away a few years ago. Would have loved tomorrow. Hope he's watching somewhere Same here. Will feel like he's there.
