I think Roland Nilson was Coventry manager. I remember it well because those I usually traveled to games with slagged me off because I didn't go on there mini bus.

Yes mate , last season each PL club received a kitty of £100,000 for “fan benefits “ would imagine similar this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Would be a good gesture but this is the new Wednesday where it tries to screw every penny out out of you while telling you are part of the wonderful 'Sheffield Wednesday Family' so I doubt it. Although would not blame club if didnt do this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIGHERSTATE Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Id be tempted with that Everton was three 1-1 draws..the first one at hillsbro was one of the loudest games ive been to..peter reid got the equaliser..chapman got at least one goal away in the purple/silver kit...then in the 4th match we were 5-0 down at half time..bit of a let down.

Plus it gives fans a fantastic opportunity to play a top flight club away which they might never get again. Thats one of the reasons I’d get rid straight away. Cup football should be a one off game, yet too many no mark teams set up to draw just for money They get a chance to play a top league team in the actual draw in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember it well because those I usually traveled to games with slagged me off because I didn't go on there mini bus. It was an awful game. Only Sheffield Wednesday could go to a club like Coventry needing a win and get hammered, with 41 year old Steve Ogrizovic making his swan-song and us debuting 38 year old Barry Horne. I'm 38 now, so 38 doesn't really sound old. But in 2000, when I was 21, 38 sounded like Horne was some kind of grand-dad. It was awful. But what a ground, Highfield Road was one for the purists.

The money from it must have kept Newport safe for quite some time Edit.totally hypothetical and if we beat Swansea and get Tottenham at home and draw. Would you still like penalties or a trip to national stadium The money would have been a huge boost to them, I read they are building improvements to their training ground off their 2 televised games. I still believe the cup should be the cup, 1 off games decided on the day. Playing for a draw in a cup game just doesn’t sit right with me Ha ha Penalties 100% and that’s the truth. Not sure DC would agree tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember it well as only goal I have see Wednesday score and some people booing it. Also Roland Nilsson was not manager of Coventry at the time was Gordon Strachan.
