@owlstalk Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 VERY WEDNESDAY As a reputable Championship side whose aim was a top-half finish, Sheffield Wednesday also entered a new decade. Very Wednesday tells the unofficial story of the extraordinary and unprecedented 2019/20 campaign both on and off the field. With a fixture by fixture narrative, author Louis Paul Shackshaft also provides an informative and enlightening insight into the Owls’ pre-season, managerial departures, appointments, transfer windows, suspensions, looming misconduct charges, the coronavirus pandemic, player contributions, statistics and much more. There has never been a campaign like this before and it will forever be remembered due to its intricate nature. Meanwhile, Wednesdayites could only watch and wait whilst fine margins continued to play a pivotal role in the outcome of the Owls’ future. Relive the emotional highs and lows of the complex 2019/20 season and step into the world of a Sheffield Wednesday fan… Check it out HERE https://amzn.to/32iswTV Sheffield Wednesday Books - https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/owlstalk?listId=3W41F1RIR7687 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 It was bad enough watching last season, now you are advertising the enticing opportunity to pay £9 for the privilege of reliving it in reading a game by game narrative over the course of 143 pages!

Cut and paste probably came in hand, the phrase - Monk realised he got his approach totally wrong and had no option but to make a double tactical substitution at half-time. Sadly it was to no avail as the Owls were comfortably beaten. - could have been used half a dozen times! sorry for having a cheeky dig at Monk in a non-Monk based thread, please don't shoot me for it.

Kopparberg Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 I think the more books on Wednesday the better. However, I’m trying to forget last season not remember it.... and it’s still haunting us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of Morrisey's solo stuff seems more apt though, particularly the singles, 'we hate it when our friends become successful' and 'you have killed me'!

McRightSide Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 I love the opportunism of the author, gotta hand it to him.

Watto Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Maybe releasing this in a few years might have helped sales but straight after the event ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
