Dan™ Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Interesting stat on the BBC: - Only Liverpool (67) and Man Utd (56) have won more opening games in league history than Sheffield Wednesday (54). - Meanwhile, only Bury (50) have lost more opening day games in Football League history than Preston (49) - level with Barnsley and Bolton. That's put the kibosh on us winning today then. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings from a sweltering Fuerteventura where I am hoping the €6.00 I've already stumped up to iFollow doesn't just go towards their Christmas party. Otherwise, I'm relying on t'internet updates and @ChapSmurf for texts from the ground. Go forth my strangely striped yellow and black gladiators and bring home the spoils. If we don't win today we can forget about promotion. UTO. I aint texting you squat. If you can't be arsed to get yo lilly white ass (see what I did there) back for this game, then that's yo prombles beeeatch. (sucks air through front teeth). Half time, full time and goal updates okay rkid? Edit: Forgot to praise the OMDT. The research pauli must put in to find all these facts just amazes me. I really don't know what drugs he is on how he does it. Edited August 5, 2017 by ChapSmurf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redcoat Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 (edited) 47 minutes ago, Ever the pessimist said: Yep. Attack the opponents rather than invite them on. Unfortunately I suspect he will do the latter and we will lose 2-0. Agreed. It's harder strategy to hold out for a single goal win than to win by 2+ imo. I'll be staggered if the midfield isn't Boyd, Bannan, Hutchinson, Reach. Boyd, Abdi, Hutchinson and FF has more than double the creative flair. They also have a dreadful defence so the stronger we are at creating the better chance we have of winning. I can see a 0-0 for a very long portion of the game again, the usual 'sterility' approach. But I could be wrong.... Edited August 5, 2017 by Redcoat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalmJimmers Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Best 'Where the flip is the Official Matchday Thread' thread ever! 3-1 to the no longer striped but maybe next season feathered heroes from t'Yorkshire. Rhodes x2 Wallace Spurr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Rat Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 (edited) Here's to a great 150th anniversary year for The Owls. Wishing all our supporters safe travels and a stunning promotion season.

I thought we were playing Campbell's reverse Spode this season. Hendon would be the obvious choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theowlsman Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 We need to average 2 points per game to go up (most likely). Don't worry if we don't win today, as long as we get the 2 points we need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuttyTeabags Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 10 hours ago, Redcoat said: Wish he'd bring out the guns for this. Rhodes and Hooper up top, Nando on the wing and Abdi in with Hutch. Get a creator in while a Hutch breaks everything up. I'd agree with this but Fletch for Rhodes. Just feel Hooper and Fletcher the better pairing based on those 6 wins in a row. We'll need some physicality with those dirty kants. Rhodes is too nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my excitement about Wednesday I had almost forgotten about Preston. They are a set of niggling Knobbers. Especially that Pearson , who I now recall was one of my most hated players last season.

jonnyowl Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Let's set a marker down! Foriesteri on the left, Hooper and Rhodes upfront! 4-0 Rhodes to score all 4! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
