brookesyowl Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 This is the year for us long suffering fans! Last year i always thought that Hull were too strong for us. This time round we haven't played the same Champagne Football but things feel right. Momentums on our side, we've got a changeable strikeforce to adapt to any situation, Lees back, Lee back. Lets be positive.....UTO!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysticOwl Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 17 years some of us here have been waiting. I am one of those fans. We got relegated the season before parachute payments were made. Tough times!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronio Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I was eighteen when we were relegated from the Premiership. I will be 36 in two weeks time. That's half my life we have been outside of the top flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan™ Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Getting past Brighton last season was more of a surprise and relief than expectation at the time (prior to the first leg), this season comes with a different kind of pressure as we could well be going into all three games as favourites... Brighton showed that doesn't mean much last season, but we've got a great opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MysticOwl Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Brighton had 3 players go off injured before 60 minutes if I remember correctly. This was the first leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 To be honest, I thought last year was our year. The semis just went our way each time. Injuries, floated goals away from home. I knew we had really struggled to get at Hull in either game. Then on the day they held us at arms length like a superior boxer. But they kept missing! I was seeing the time drag on and I thought, we might nick this or take it to pens. But then Diame ruined the prophecy. I haven't had that feeling about this season at all. But in fairness we have started to fulfill our potential in the last month and we have looked very focused in the face of adversity. Something that was lacking in big games earlier this season. If we keep our cool and if luck is even kinder this year, you never know. Another play off defeat doesn't bear thinking about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's half my life we have been outside of the top flight. I was eighteen too. we got relegated at just the wrong time, literally just before premier league money exploded and with the Internet and extra media coverage came in to play too. I swear a lot of people think the premier league started after 2000. The amount of times I'm asked by football fans if Wednesday were ever in the premier league (mostly by younger people). I feel life can be too short and I want to see us enjoy that new premier league experience at least once. Hopefully it's coming very soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been languishing in the lower divisions for far too long. We have plenty of younger supporters who no doubt have never seen us play in the Premier League. I truly hope the younger and the older fans get to see us back where we belong. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommypolyfilla Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I was 21 when we got relegated from the Premier League and I said to anyone that listened that Wednesday would never be there again in my lifetime. I'm now 37 and absolutely certain we're going to be promoted this year. Which means I'll probably die with 5 minutes to go in the final. Hopefully we'll be 6-0 up at the time and I'll die happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
