But it is not out of the ordinary for firms to watch social media like a hawk. Some firms HATE negativity and bad PR being associated with them. We really don't have tame fans. We have our fair share of idiots. I literally said that. Of course firms watch social media and it’s huge. I’m just stating that no firm in their right mind would enter a negotiation with a football club and the be surprised by a few negative comments. Yes we have idiots, but if honestly saw fewer than other clubs. I see some absolute rubbish get said about it sent to players, but it’s not abuse like you see other clubs get. Especially premier league ones. We have the you’re not good enough, not fit to wear shirt etc. I don’t see racist abuse, homophobic abuse, sexism, threatening behaviour or utterly vile comments. It could be as we have less fans, but it is honestly tame. There was a little with players taking a knee (I found some fans disgusting with their response), but again in comparison it wasn’t much. We need to get this “some of our fans are terrible” mentality out of our heads. With what we’ve been served for 20 years I think Wednesday fans are fantastic. 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Admire the ambition, but 76 points would entail us getting 71 points out of a possible 108. If my maths are correct we’ve got 31 out of the last 102. That would require a Herculean turn around in form. Call me an old cynic, but I’m sure this is going to happen. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nearly every thread on here is negative and you don’t see that elsewhere Wednesday over last 3 years have not exactly made it hard for the whiners. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is there anything to be positive about. It’s been around for years .. instead of some idiot spouting and spitting negative rubbish from the back of the North Stand, he has social media now and a huge potential audience .. and it’s there for anyone (or business) to read 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@owlstalk Posted November 5, 2020 Author Share Posted November 5, 2020 So basically Chansiri is saying that we didnt' find Steve Bruce at all - he came to US for the job In fact Chansiri is saying he didnt' even like Steve Bruce's style as a manager WTF 4 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And arent you assuming that there isn't footballing philosophy? Monk has touched on this. Getting in players who want to play for the club etc. Take your point though.

THIS When he says these numbers about what’s needed to go up - why doesn’t the interviewer follow up with ‘well you need X points a game and currently on X points’ - see what he responds then. Easy to say - yeah we need 76 points we’ll go for it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
