Popular Post Lord Snooty Posted April 2, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 2, 2018 Sunderland - V - Wednesday Is everybody relaxed now? All confident that we're not going to sink through the relegation trapdoor. Thanks largely to the Kosovan Legend. Looking forward to a Easter Monday game against The Mackems? Well you should be. Even the most miserable of bleeders. Because they are having a worse time of it than we are. Yes, they beat Derby. But everyone is going to beat Derby. They (The Rams) are just getting into the groove of their annual end of year balls up. It was a good win for Colemans lot of course it was. But it's an anomaly. It's at home where they need wins and it's at home where they won't come . No. They won't come. Not for them. And do you want to know why? Well I'll tell you... It's nothing to do with Coleman. Though it must be said that the swarthy looking Welshman does seem to be looking a bit shell-shocked on his return to League football management. I mean, it's different to the international set up isn't it. Where you can swan about the globe like an International man of leisure for most of the year. Topping up the tan. Then turn up to a match once every three months. I mean. That's some gig that isn't it International management.. But no. It's not him that's Sunderlands problem. It's nothing to do with relying on McGeady for the ammunition. Though that won't help. Despite people on this very forum being terrified he was going to set the Championship on fire because of his mis-hit cross at Hillsborough earlier in the season. No. They've made the complete balls up that so many make. One we know all about only too well ourselves, They have upset the football Gods. Now it's not too late for them. They could stay up if they wanted. But they won't won't change it will they. The horror show they're wearing.. Butchers stripes on the front. Plain on the back. Never been Sunderland. Whichever that is in place they're doomed. They could have a front three of Neymar, Ronaldo and Messi and Gaurdiola as manager. They'd still be doomed. I mean if the Chairman didn't see relegation coming when the designers dropped of the prints for this thing then he must be wetter behind the ears than Duncan Goodhew. . Simply put they are doomed to failure with that. "Wear a third division kit and you'll end up in the third division." that's what they say. Well, they don't. But they should. It should be a mantra that all fans chant outside their club shops when the latest monstrosity is unveiled. 'Unless your club are in the fourth division of course, in which case you might like to be in the third division.' Aye, Sunderland are doomed. Doomed until they appease the football Gods.With something a little more.....Sunderland. It wouldn't take much. But time and again clubs just don't seem to understand the importance that nice clean lines, simple socks and shorts and traditional stripes have on the moods of those who look down upon the game from the terraces and from the heavens. With this in mind today becomes a clash of the terrible kits. The home form suggests that we have an excellent chance. I think we have an excellent chance because Big Atdhe is on fire and we have players coming back that would get in any side in the division. And by the way just how many defensive headers did Tom Lees make in that last match. Loads! So good to have him back. Someone who'll get in amongst the muck and nettles. Stick his head in where it hurts.A proper defender. . Match facts Sunderland have only lost one of their last 13 league matches against the Owls (W8 D4), a 2-1 defeat in March 1997 in the Premier League. Sheffield Wednesday have failed to win any of their last nine away league visits to Sunderland (D3 L6) since winning 2-1 in August 1969 at Roker Park. The Black Cats have won none of their last eight league matches played on Monday at the Stadium of Light (D5 L3), last winning against West Brom in August 2006. The Owls are unbeaten in their last 11 league matches played in April (W7 D4), winning each of the last six in a row. Only in 2005/06 (1) have Sunderland won fewer home league games after their first 19 of the season than in 2017/18 (2). The Black Cats suffered relegation from the Premier League in 2005/06. You see. This is all set up for us isn't it. Infact. Sunderland are having such a bad time of it at home I suspect we could play Jordan Rhodes and he might score. Atdhe Nuhiu has scored three goals in his last four away league games for the Owls On the road there's no greater weapon in the armoury than Big Adthe. It's no wonder scouts from all over the world are flooding to see him play. His value increases weekly. But you know. I don't think you can put a price tag on what he he brings us. He brings us Legend. He carves memories into even the most resisting of minds. Anyway. Hutch in or rested after his ankle roll? Hunt. Down twice in 5 minutes for treatment. Does he make it? Is it too soon for Nando to start despite his excellent cameo? Was he disciplined enough for Jos? Maybe something like this ? Who knows. Jos The Boss seems to fly by his own rules Either way. I've got a good feeling. COME ON WEDNESDAY 16 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmowl Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Good morning. Great if late OP, as always. Too many Baileys Easter cocktails last night? Your questions... Surely Jos will sit Fernando on the bench rather than start. After 34 games injured only a fool or an irresponsible Portuguese would throw him in so quickly? Nuhiu - likewise I think Jos will treat him and all players with good old common sense, and not give him 90. Joao surely will start. After only 45 on Friday, plus goal plus assist he will be chomping at the bit. Hunt will probably be rested for his pains. Great to see Lees, Bannan, Fernando and Hunt back as topics for match day discussion. 1-3 Wednesday. Joao x2 FF late on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lombardo Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 The silicone chip inside her head, is set to overload.... love the rats... Great thread lord. Confidence may be too high for this one, but at least i feel a bit more relaxed. 5pm could be a defining moment of the season for a lot of clubs... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airborne_rat_of_s6 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Great OMDT. Nice to win and banish thoughts of Relegation. If we do win this then we need to start playing Rhodes in the remaining matches. Irrespective of whether he moves on in the summer or not, think we need to give him a final chance to gain a bit of confidence and boost his stock.

WOLS Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Good morning Lord Snooty. Good morning all! Sheffield Wednesday like to show their generosity and compassionate side when playing clubs facing relegation. We give the gift of points. We have given Burton 6 but they choose to snub our magnanimous gesture and keep themselves rooted at the foot of the table. Do you think we will offer Sunderland our outstretched hand to help them clamber to safety? Well let's not do that. For once let's show we have some killer instinct and finish them off. WAWAW . Sunderland are not included in that "We" - they are not Wednesday, they are Mackems, so FFS let's be brutal and clinical and enjoy watching them sink to the next division!

Lord Snooty Posted April 2, 2018 Author Share Posted April 2, 2018 Another bonus is... Though they are below us in the table their name doesn't begin with 'B' so we have every chance of coming away with an excellent result. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Sunderland is also where died, and he's reputed to haunt the dressing room at Sunderland Empire Theatre. Wonder if he'll take a stroll to the Sunderland home dressing room and put the willies up them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm an Essex Owl Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Great OMTD - our 150th anniversary was jinxed as soon as it was clear we were wearing an Ipswich cast-off. Have a bad feeling we will lose 1-0 having set up in a desperately defensive manner (and also had a proper nightmare last night that Butters was going to get a start...)

room0035 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 We have won the last two out aim should be to go to the end of the season unbeaten, at the same time injured players coming back and getting match fit. We need to build then be ready first game of next season, the last 3 seasons we ha e taken 10 games to get going the first 2 it cost us promotion with the 10+ points we gave our rivals starts. Let's keep that winning mentality and hopefully score a few goals as well. I hope for the second half team mentality against Preston today not the first half today as when we attack teams we are as good as anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dewsburyowl58 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Excellent as always Sir Snoots , loving your facts and stats , can’t argue with the Gods can we ! . Settle for a draw today if we can get there that is !!! . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogers Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Win and we’re safe IMO. They’ve just beat Derby 4-1 away; so could be starting the usual phenomena of the team that looks dead and buried and have 10 or less games to save the season; seem to beat everyone in their path, despite not winning a game for the past 30 odd games. Good day 2:1 Wednesday (Bannan & Nuhiu) Average day 1:1 (Joao) No one wants to talk about bad days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
