We always bring him programmes and stuff, and I hope the lad sticks with us and ignores the lure of the bigger clubs Wow. Ive been a huge Radiohead er.. head from the beginning, seen em a bunch of times and I never knew that until I saw the Telecaster on tele last night. Just gone from favourite all time band to... the next level up from favourite all time band! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurujuan Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 (edited) It's funny how little events can shape your sporting loyalties That's why I have a bit of an issue when we don't take cup competitions seriously Can't tell you how many out of town Owls I've met, who's intro into Wednesdayism, was through us getting to a cup final, or similar That's the same with Johnny's boy, he was wavering until we beat Arsenal That's how it is when you don't come from Sheffield, it's not something that's passed down through generations, something has to trigger It For some, yeah, it will be a passing phase, but for others, like me, the club has you for life Don't really have any truck with people when they dismiss out of towners as not being real fans In many cases, your allegence is tested more, as it costs a heck of a lot more just to attend games Edited June 24, 2017 by gurujuan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Watson of Cabaret Voltaire is an Owls fan (or used to be). He was one of our crowd that used to go to all the home games & many away games in the early 70's.

Despite the photo, he's not a Wednesday fan. He even says so on his official website. There's also some behind the scenes footage where the bassist is wearing the same shirt in the studio. Perhaps someone gave it to the band or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the story is (read it somewhere) they wanted to go to a game when they were in Sheffield playing the Leadmill (touring around the time of the Blue Album) so they were taken to watch Wednesday play and then they all got a shirt afterwards. Rivers got one with Waddle on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of towners are good for any club for it's growth and it should be welcomed. And it's one of the proudest things I've liked about our fans, whenever I've been lucky enough to get to a game and to meet other Owls, they have been welcoming and friendly to me and other out of towners, and even to fans of other clubs. That's something about our support that I like and it should be encouraged, the same way as out of town support should be encouraged too. Growing up in South Wales, I only ever knew two other kids that were Owls fans but we were very passionate and proud Owls, that price and passion rubbed off onto our friends and fellow football fans, and made others look out for our results, and now in the internet age I'm amazed how many Owls fans there are near me in the South Wales area as evidenced by the South Wales South West facebook group, and I have found them to be just as passionate and proud as local Owls are. When I was growing up most other kids were either Liverpool or Man U or Arsenal fans but I wanted to be different, those clubs didn't appeal to me, even though my dad was a Liverpool fan. I remember watching highlights of a Liverpool and Wednesday game with my dad and grandad, and being struck by the pace and dynamism of Hirst and Atkinson. In that game they ran rings around Liverpool's famous backline of their golden years. From that moment on I was hooked, and as I learnt about Wednesday's famous long history that hooked me even more. Whenever people ask me 'why Wednesday?' I tell them about that game against that mighty Liverpool team and I proudly tell them about Wednesday's famous long history and about early football developing in Sheffield.

cagOWL Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I love Radiohead but music is like it is with Women! It's subjective. You literally cannot fancy someone you don't fancy and you can't like something you don't like, even if your mate does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
