TheGaffer Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 (edited) We should organise a protest march towards Leppings Lane from Hillsborough corner to Lepp. Keep repeating this every home match until the decision is overturned. Writing to the mp, Councillor etc is all well and good but it won't have much effect. Never does. Direct sustained action required here methinks. We could begin at the qpr game, giving us enough time to organise, then allows the authorities a couple of weeks notice to the next which will be bigger following the international break. I fail to see how remove an access / egress from the ground makes it less dangerous. I also fail to see how exiting directly onto a main road, Penistone, Bramhall Lane, numerous other grounds is safer than the "funnelling" effect caused at LL. Bizarre but I'm sure Eastwoods or whoever is doing the pedestrian flow simulation and analysis will show this. So there you have it. A call to arms my fellow band of brothers! Let's raise a glass to our team, Sheffield Wednesday rule supreme. Edited August 23, 2019 by TheGaffer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For balance, if you'd said the winter of discontent.... Let's leave Politics out of Matchday. Unless it's to castigate SCC for seemingly supporting the persecution of the club.

Not just on here but in general. Yep makes a change to be called Tory without the obligatory scum. Social media has screwed party politics in this country. No debate any more. Everything is black or white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also a conservative government that is incompetent. To be fair matched by the Labour opposition's incompetence To be honest I think best we can hope for are that the vikings invade again and take over. Our government and councils are just not fit for purpose anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s.armo Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 1 hour ago, bigthinrob said: Agree mate, but it goes deeper than football. This city is 20 years in development terms behind Manchester and similar with Leeds. This is solely down to the half wits that have run it & continue to run it (into the ground) and sadly it is all in the name of politics. Manchester have always had a Labour council but with a different view point regarding business than our Socialist anti business clowns & we are now paying the price. The way we (Wednesday) & it’s supporters have been treated is symptomatic of how they feel they are immune from any scrutiny or criticism and when we have the nerve to react to further draconian measures on top of already stifling dictats, they react like a 70s Communist state, sulking and briefing the press & media without any consultation to the club. We have a leader stealing a 6 figure salary (40k more than the British Prime minister) & he hasn’t got the decency to even acknowledge what this club means to over half the population of this city. He & his cronies including the Police are more concerned about placating the media for events that unfolded years ago. I urge all Wednesday fans (whether they go or not) to not forget this episode & act accordingly when the time comes. The leader of the council is Julie Doors who is a wednesday fan not a bloke and is on nothing like the salary you talk about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cord wearing, save the whale types listening to Levellers albums criticising capitalism whilst jogging in their Nike’s and holidaying in Tenerife. Sheffield Council is full of them. If it wasn't for the Public service cut backs implemented by the Tory/Lib Govt's of the last 9 years maybe there might be enough Police to do the job properly?.

The reason for cut backs across the board is the poilitical dogma that is austerity- -essentially a method of disempowering and demoralising large swathes of the population so that they can be controlled more easily. Then switching the wealth to Tory donors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Labour under Corbyn are a democratic party. Their donations come from people like me not from corporate interests.

Where has there been a profit, last time I looked, George was giving the Banks shares back at a reduced price. By the way IF there are any profits, shouldn't the glory go to Brown?.
