Not our band at all, anyone's band if they pay. sorry but they are the sheffield wednesday KOP band... i see them there on a regular basis... and IF they 'play for pay' as you state who at hillsborough are paying them, and how much?

F. Spiksley Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Sponsorship = payment Flights received = payment Money given = payment Etc. Etc. Etc. Nothing unique for us as a club. They should disappear and just go and trundle out the same tired old guff elsewhere and not Hillsborough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 According to the lad I work with (A Leeds fan), they (the Wednesday band) actually tried to play at Elland Road on a few occasions when Weeds United were playing. Needless to say the locals booed them out of the stadium. Think that says it all about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDY Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Is it true they will try to prostitute themselves out to any sporting event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll note that when Wednesday actually do well (say like promotion in 2012) they'll be front and center banging their drums, blowing their trumpets and generally being a bunch of annoying tw@ts.

At which point they'll opt for "The Kop Band" moniker... ... or is it Pukka Pies, or Leeds Rhinos, or England Band or whatever... ... they've no integrity and can't be considered our band. They're hired hands. We should get rid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would have played "Putin had a dream, to build a war machine" if they got paid enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest timrud Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 The club also have a bunch of hooligans. Should I want them too because they are OUR hooligans? The band are anti-social and self serving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's quite simple really. You only need to worry about what you're posting but if you see a post that you think crosses the line then use the report function. Moderators can't see all the posts.

Not being argumentative, just wondering why some posts get deleted and others don't. Just think it depends on the topic and the way it's directed rather than what's said. The way it was deleted yet others with stronger words remain made it sound as though it was highly offensive when it really wasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
