BIG D Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I’d loved to have seen this lot when we were really sh it back in the 70s. No backbone and full of excuses. If you have a ST and don’t go then you are a bit fick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nero Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I go.All the ST holders around do too. If the style of play was a factor in going I would only have been to about 20% of seasons in 41 years of attending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I didn’t go out drinking before, I’d be very 50/50 as watching Wednesday this season has become nothing short of being a chor. Yep, I'm the same. The football at the moment is usually the bit that ruins it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it due to the style of play? I have a three years ST but I missed the Millwall game through choice and sever apathy . Yes , it was due ti being bored to death of Carlos and his awful , negative tactics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookone Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 (edited) 5 minutes ago, BIG D said: I know Carlos has had more money to spend than any other manager but if you think the football we are watching is worse than that served up by Irvine, Jones and Gray amongst others then your eyes are painted on. You are of course right, the football actually isn't as dire as some recent incarnations, but we saw a couple of seasons ago what the squad can do and that was all down to Carlos. Whats frustrating is for what ever reason he seems to either not want to or is unable to motivate the team to play free flowing attacking football.

Jones however did an outstanding job to get us promoted, and people forget that because he was a turd. Gray did a terrific job on limited resources. I agree re Gray but my God the football was horrendous. And with Jones I was in about the latter days of his reign Edited November 25, 2017 by BIG D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Newsome Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 It's hardly Alan Irvine sat in 16th in the 3rd division, getting hammered by Huddersfield and Peterborough on our own patch football. We're 11th in the Championship, yes it's awful to watch but it's been far worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birstall Owl Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 In true Yorkshireman style I've paid for my bloody ST so I'm going, obviously after most games I question my sanity but still 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mkowl Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I will still go because Sheffield Wednesday is what I do outside of work and family (and an escape from both). I will hopefully still be capable of doing so for years to come long after these players have retired, Carlos is back in Portugal and DC has phuked off home. After 44 years of watching I have seen it all before, seen a lot worse, seen a lot better. Just a word of warning though Mr Chansiri if you think you can hike season ticket prices on a repeat of the false promise of decent football to watch Don't be surprised if there is a huge dropout of numbers because even I will start to think twice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lincs Owl Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I'm a st holder and I missed two games cos I was abroad. Will check weather for wolves home game. Might pay £6.99 for sky, rather than £15 petrol and pneumonia for attending. I reckon the criticism of Carlos and the team is ridiculous. 6 defeats in our last 28 league and play off games. Some of you lot shud have tried watching through the 70s. You would have had something to complain about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loxley Owl Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I have a ST on the North. I’m still going, but I’m going to miss the Wolves match as it’s been moved for TV and now clashes with my work Christmas party. I’m a little bit relieved that I’m going to miss us getting whupped, although I’m sure the couple of Blades I work with will be delighted to tell me how many we’re losing by throughout the evening. If I didn’t have a ST, there is no way I would pay up to £45 for my seat to watch this bobbar at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
