RUMBELOWS91 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 5 minutes ago, Apple said: Are you a George Hirst fan or a Sheffield Wednesday fan? A Sheffield Wednesday fan- that's why I don't really care about George Hirst's tweet. On the day we've been schooled by our biggest rivals on our own patch and dropped further off the pace, a tweet from a teenager who's barely kicked a ball for the first team (and almost certainly never will) doesn't really register on my Richter scale.

As I said - huge over reaction from (presumably) grown men to a young lads tweet on social media. Why wouldn't we be bothered about it? Is it silly for grown men to cheer at a goal being scored or be disappointed when we lose? Why do we support Sheffield Wednesday? Bit pointless and childish isn't is? [sarcasm] Of course this will annoy most people. His issue is with the club. What is liking this tweet going to achieve apart from disgruntlement of the fans that have supported and lobbied in his favour? I often tell my 5 year old son, crying and showing off isn't going to get you what you want. Pity David didn't bring his son up in quite the same way.

It is almost certain that it will go down to the tribunal, and we could have done more to increase fee we will be entitled to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s wrong - you know it. shouldnt have don’t it. It's not a case of it being right or wrong- it's so insignificant I don't care, and can't understand why people are so wound up by it.

darra Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Hirst is arguably playing a dangerous game, maybe he has a contact on offer from another club who knows but he could now be seen as a bit of a stroppy sod. Good comment made the other night on TS. Chelsea have won the FA youth cup 6 out of the last 8 years beating Man City the last 3 years yet how many of those players have become household names or even made it?

He was offered a contract by us with a loan to follow, he turned the contract down so will now see out his time with the club until he can walk away on a free.

But it's not a goal, and it's not a refusal to play, and it's not turning up to training pi55ed, or turning up to pre season fat- it's a bloody tweet. By an 18 year old. Who doesn't /probably never will play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldGigsChris Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 How can a Wednesdayite applaud a mate playing for United against us in a steel city derby? If Hirst can't support his boyhood club, why should we give him special treatment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
