"But what about the match day thread?" "To hell with it. I'm not in the mood." "I thought you loved this time of year" "I do. But Ye Gods it's depressing. I knew we'd lose to sodding Stoke. It's so Typical of Wednesday. I tried to be positive. But I knew. We all knew, that their terrible run would come to an end against us. It's the Wednesday way." "Well tomorrow is a different day,Sir. A clean slate." "Yes but is it, Stubbs? Is it? It didn't take long. We lost and all the festive cheer was gone. Nuhiu threads. Nando threads. A Westwood thread. Good job for Fox he got on the score sheet or he'd have bee getting a hammering. The mood has been sunk. Then of course there's all this with the EFL the icing on the sodding cake. It's ruined Christmas. It's made it the worst I've had." "Really? This time last year you dropped a point to a 95th minute goal against ten man West Brom. Squeezed a draw with struggling Birmingham and then got spanked three to nil at Hull" "It just feels worse now somehow." "And the year before that of course, her ladyship came home for Christmas and you ended up...remember...." "Good God, yes I remember" "So you see ,Sir, while it's a bit upsetting losing to Stoke, it's not the end of the World." "Yes. I suppose you're right. Tomorrow is a clean slate. A fresh start. Stoke was a blip. Yes. We can do this. All is good in the world Stubbs. All is good. And if nothing else we have our health!" "Exactly,Sir" ============================================== "I'm off now Mr Hargreaves." "Ok, you take care Doreen, love, thanks for staying late. You know what it's like when the site-traffic auditors come in. I do appreciate it. Sure you don't want me to ring a taxi for you?" "It's ok.Brian is picking me up." "All right. Well take care, it's bloody horrible out there." "I will. Good night" "Night. See you tomorrow-" "Bleedin hell. Who can this be at this time of night. Hello?" "Mr Hargreaves?" "Aye" "It's Doctor Spunkzenberger from the Asylum" "Yes..." "I'm afraid one of the inmates has escaped. @PatBloke . We've only just discovered it....the alarms had been bypassed. But his cell Hargreaves....his cell. You must warn Snooty...oh, and Hargreaves....." "He's taken a Neg-Gun" "Sweet-Jesus!" ============================================== Wednesday - V- Cardiff City Sunday 29th December, 2019 Kick off : 15:00 Hillsborough ============================================== THE TEAM NEWS SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY Wednesday top scorer Steven Fletcher could be back after missing their last two games through illness.

alanharper Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Ref watch - Tim bloody Robinson It doesn't matter that our record under him is actually quite good (W5, D3 L2), it doesn't matter that he's since given a couple of soft penalties and odd decisions in our favour almost as if he's desperate to make up for it, he'll simply never ever be forgiven for that decision.

nevthelodgemoorowl Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Quite relaxed about this one now I've seen the 5 large suitcases stuffed with £50's awaiting New Year transfer window.

striker Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Fixture schedule at this time of year is ridiculous, great for fans to have festive football, but quality suffers as players are knackered as no time to recover. Suspect a few changes today and will come down to strength in depth of squads. Key players, Fletcher playing for us and Tomlin not playing for them IMO. Don't expect a classic, but hope for a reaction after Stoke. 2-1 Wednesday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lombardo Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Great thread Snoots...Do Argos sell Neg-Guns? Expectation low today so anything positive would be fab-u-lous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Keep Calm and Carry On. Weve taken 3 points from our two festive period games. Take 4 from today and Hull and we march on very handsomely towards a Play-Off. We lose our sheit after every loss or even draw, but in this 46 game marathon we are doing very nicely. Hoping for a win and even a performance. Hoping Fletcher back, and hoping that Dom gets his confidence back. Good to see defenders getting goals. 1-0 today. Dom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VictoryBell Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Well done Snoots - at least I think so, viewing things as I do through an alcoholic haze, with breath that could strip hammerite and a scruffy, stubbly chin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
