"Indeed ,Sir" "But the lockdown, how did you, I mean, can't you be fined or some such?" "No, Sir. I have acquired special dispensation" "Oh?" "As your primary carer, Sir" "Well excellent work says I, Stubbs , excellent work! Hey, hello, hang on a minute. Primary carer?" "Yes, Sir" "But, that, I mean to say Stubbs, that makes it sound a bit like.." "A bit like what , Sir?" "Well, you know, a bit like I can't, y'know, look after myself and what not. I mean, it's a bit rummy, casting on a mans reputation and the like. I mean, I'm perfectly capable, as you know." "Indeed ,Sir. Though, I note you do seem to have lost some weight" "Well, I did think the old trousers were getting a bit loose around the thighs if I'm being totally honest Stubbs, I have to say. I feel a bit like that Scottish Rappist." "Scottish what, Sir?!" "You know. Rappist. McHammer" "It is, M.C ....Hammer ,Sir. MC as in master of ceremonies." "Oh, he's not Scottish then?" "No ,Sir, and they're called Rappers not....well, what you said." "Yes, I did wonder why they'd use a similar word , bit you , you know" "Indeed, Sir. But back to my point ,Sir. Have you been eating properly?" "Of course I have. Though I must say, pretty slim pickings since you last did a big shop. I did get that rabbit you sneakily left me in the kitchen during the week, though. Knew you wouldn't let me down." "What Rabbit,Sir?" "The one you threw through the cat-flap when you sneaked up one night. I found it in that large bowl by the cooker" "Large bowl by the ...Sir!" "Yes. Bit scrawny I have to say. Not my finest hour. Didn't pluck the sod. Couldn't see a thing , lost my glasses" "That bowl ,Sir" "Yes, the one you'd lined with a blanket. I'd have used baking paper myself" "That wasn't a bowl, Sir that's the...cats basket" "Bleurgh...Good God. Mr Pompadour!" "Sir , I.." "Take my mind off it Stubbs. Tell me of the Wednesday" "Well ,Sir, the chairman has had a chat with the press. Wanted to answer the fans after calls about his silence" "Oh, excellent! What's he said?" "Well, it started later than expected and he started by saying that it was a.." "The abbreviated version Stubbs, we haven't all night" "Well, he said he's paying off a club debt that was here when he arrived and is still being paid, then he said-" "Wait, what! What was that? What debt? Who the bloody hell to?" "He didn't say" "Didn't say? Didn't say! Typical. Typical of this sodding club. Here we are, a massive club-" "Not massive, Sir. No where near as big as you think actually" "Says who, you insolent dog! " "Says the owner of it" "Oh did he indeed. Well, I'll tell you what he can do , he can-" "No! No, Sir. Don't say anything bad" "Why not?!" "Because you might cost the club another 100 million pound sponsorship deal....again" "'Again', what the hell are you blathering on about 'again' I've had nothing to do with our sponsorship negotiations" "You have, Sir. You all have. With your negativity. So please, Sir, positivity. For the good of the club" "I do one half critical piece and then this. Huh! Fine! So...what am I supposed to do eh.... 'hurrah we're going to win tomorrow!' That any good?" "Well actually ,Sir. I wouldn't got that far. IT sounds sarcastic. Besides which, I've gone to the trouble of feeding all the results and stats for both teams into Mr Hargreaves Super computer to calculate tomorrows likeliest match outcome" "And?" "It says the likely outcome is a 1-0 Millwall victory" "FFS" "Erm, negativity, Sir" "Oh yes. Sorry. I meant 'Super'!" -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- WEDNESDAY V's MILLWALL Saturday 7th November 2020 k.o. 3pm Hillsborough Stadium Ref: Tony Harrington (Apps: 7 ,Yellows: 20 , Reds: 0) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Sheffield Wednesday will be aiming to finally build some momentum this weekend when they take on Millwall at Hillsborough. The Owls brought an end to their winless run in midweek and were given another boost with news that their 12-point deduction has been halved. TEAM NEWS WEDNESDAY Wee Bazza's second-half penalty against 10-man niggly swines Bournemouth on Tuesday can hopefully be a catalyst for Wednesday after stopping the rot thanks to a precious 1-0 victory. They now have to build on that display. But that's what we said after Birmingham... However, not since December 2019 have the Owls won back-to-back matches in the league - the type of inconsistency that has plagued them for too long. That win against Bournemouth, combined with their points deduction being cut in half, means that Monk's men are now three points from safety. Kadeem Harris was sent off late on in the win over Bournemouth and will therefore miss this game, while centre-back Aden Flint has also been ruled out with a hamstring strain. Monk is expected to stick with his 3-5-2 formation, with Adam Reach a contender to fill in for Harris at left wing-back. Callum Paterson, Jack Marriott and Izzy Brown were all brought on in the second half against Bournemouth and will be pushing for inclusion on Saturday. Wednesday possible starting lineup: Wildsmith Palmer Iorfa Borner Odubajo Bannan Pelupessy Reach Brown Windass Kachunga ------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------- Millwall Their target is clear at this stage as they find themselves just a point outside the playoff places heading into matchday 11. The Lions played out a goalless draw against Norwich City in midweek, four days on from firing a blank in a 3-0 home loss to Huddersfield Town. That latest shutout made it 15 clean sheets for Gary Rowett's charges in 2020 - more than any other side in the top four tiers of English football. have also kept a clean sheet in each of their last three league meetings with Wednesday, following on from a run of 11 in a row without doing so. The South London club do not tend to pick up wins at Hillsborough, however, losing three and drawing three of their last six trips since a 2-1 win in September 2005. TEAM - they will be without Kenneth Zohore for the next couple of months because of a calf issue. Matt Smith and Jon Dadi Bodvarsson were both used in the backs-to-the-wall showing against Norwich, but Tom Bradshaw may well get the nod through the middle at Hillsborough. Millwall tend to use five across the back away from home, so expect that to be the case here. Millwall possible starting lineup: Bialkowski Romeo Hutch Cooper Murray Malone Woods Leonard Wallace Bradshaw Bennett ------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------- FORM GUIDE Wednesday form: W-L-L-L-L-W Millwall form: W-W-D-W-L-D ------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------- AS IT STANDS ------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------- COME ON WEDNESDAY! 21 4 13 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nevthelodgemoorowl Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Well we tend to be first choice for the Millwall Party @ Hillsborough Boys (though they did take it to New York) one year. I can honestly say I never had a real problem with Millwall though I did find the walk from New Cross Gate tube and under that horrible tunnel a bit daunting at times. Rough & Tough if you want rough & tough let me introduce to you one of the roughest toughest players ever seen at Hillsborough. He died aged 54 in Dec 1995. Tougher than any of the players in our team. Tougher than Bremner, Styles or MacKay. His name was Harry Cripps a bit better than his League one status but as tough as old nuts. So a thought from me for Harry RIP you rough bugger ! As for us all the signs are good but generally that tends to not help us very much. But I remain in confident mood. SO COME ON WEDNESDAY, DON'T BE INTIMIDATED BY THESE SOUTHERN SOFTIES. UTO & DTB WAWAW, COME ON UP & AT EM ! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flat Owl Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Reyt good OMDT Snoots. I am going to keep my trap shut for fear of potentially losing the club perhaps the equivalent of Abdis entire salary in sponsorship revenue... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plonk Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Damn good news about Zahore. He was nailed onto score a couple and spawn another wave of depression. But apparently other clubs sign crocks as well as is. Who would have thought it 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manwë Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 4-1 to Wednesday (seriously). Just hope the prediction not to keep a clean sheet doesn't stop a joint venture of Microsoft, Google, Ineos, Amazon and Apple from sponsoring our shirt. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Womble Owl Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 (edited) Great thread as usual 2-1 win for us today, I've a feeling we're going to turn the tide now. Edited November 7, 2020 by Womble Owl spelling 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 The win against a promotion favourite and the six points from the appeal is bound to be a huge moral boost for the players and Monk. We could be back close to full strength, with only Luongo really weakening the side. I like Harris a lot but having Moses - Reach rather than Harris - Moses is an upgrade. Highly optimistic. If we can go into the international break with back to back wins we could emerge in great shape to play Preston, Swansea and Stoke. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pablo Bonvin Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Top post Milord. Well, another eventful week in S6. I supposed I’d better temper my prediction for today’s game in case potential sponsors are reading this. I’m going for a 7-1 win to us, making us thus a fabulous opportunity to invest in. Roll up roll up. If I ran a business I know what I’d do. Up the Owls. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
