SallyCinnamon 15,470 Posted July 27 How on earth are we supposed to plan for next season if we don’t know what league we are in? Surely players who we’re looking to sign will think twice? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surely players who we’re looking to sign will think twice? Big time No Championship player is gonna say 'yeah I will come. I dont' mind if you get relegated n that' Just not gonna happen Also - any players being hunted by clubs aren't gonna say 'I'll hang on a bit and see if Wednesday get relegated before deciding whether to choose you or them' and risk losing a move to a club Sheffield Videos | Owlstalk | Sheffield History Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not many players will want to join a club starting on minus points next season. And on the other hand a lot of players wanting Championship football won’t want to sign for a club who could end up in League One. Absolute farce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's always some fuc*er has to go over the top & be controversial. Some things are just best left & not discussed. It causes unrest & destabilises what is left of modern society & is offensive to certain elements of the population. I'm sorry mate but you should know better, you know there's strict rules as to what is deemed acceptable for discussion & this is just a step too far. Of course season tickets aren't priced too high!! 😂 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you mean like the last time we were faced with a real prospect of relegation from this division and a near full house turned up to support the team on the last day against Middlesbrough? Don't know why some are so keen to put our own fans down when the reality is we are no different to the majority of clubs in this respect. At least without the pressure of the crowd after the restart our team came out and proved your point that they can play far better and get better results at home without the fans on their back............. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
