Jennz Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 .....I decided to turn on the computer & find out the result...prior to that I'd chosen not to follow it live as I usually do, I thought cold turkey was best for my nerves in this massive six pointer situation. Before turning on the computer I imagined what the worst scenarios could be, things like we'd played well but lost to a goal in the 90th minute, or we had a player sent off, bad ref decision, stone wall pen turned down etc etc etc....BUT, what met my eyes was probably the worst collection of calamities I think I might have witnessed in 60 years of following the Owls & there has, as we all know, been quite a few......it's staggering in it's brutality, it makes me wonder if there is intelligent yet dastardly design behind it....surely this is rock bottom now. I cried in 1970 as a fourteen year old after we didn't turn up against Man City & went down.....it's been a long roller coaster ride since but I didn't cry on seeing this latest debacle, I laughed....out loud.....this can't be normal can it?

sonofbert2 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 I laughed. As soon as the corner was cleared I said here comes the winner. I cackled like a mad man. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UTO This isn't even close to rock bottom. Just think of this, we got rid of Fletcher, Nuhiu, Foriesteri etc...last summer and look who we signed to replace them. Then try and imagine who we are going to sign this summer to replace the worst squad in our history. I'll take staying up next season in League One! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OWL1969 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 I have to say, both Saturday and Tonight I just laughed. When you think things can't possibly get any worse, they conjure up yet more inconceivable ways of not just losing games, but losing games against poor opposition (but still much better than us) Even though each match, the way of losing somehow surpasses the Previous match, you can just it coming, you don't know how they can continue to let you down in a bigger way, but you just know that somehow they will find a way. I can't be believe I've been reduced to laughing at my Clubs continued ineptitude, but laughing's all they left me with. It's way past anger, or even apathy, it's just unbelievably laughable. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mildatheart67 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Can't wait for Saturday now, wonder what new ineptitude they can achieve. A proper tanking maybe with our keeper sent off then the replacement one ricking his back picking ball out of net after a dodgy Pen.and going off..and say Bannan in goal to finish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The Claw Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 i have started getting excited when theres a forward pass, most of them are sideways or backwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogerwyldesmullet Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 That was a spectacularly bad last period and yes - it has elicited a strange feelings of absurdity and delirium We get a comedy own goal and for some reason both teams take a four minute time out to get ready for the grand finale - which Didn't disappoint. In between giving away foul after foul including one by Liam Rambo Bambi Shaw just outside the box, DM thought it would be a good idea to take off the player on our side who could unlock their defence. And then Izzy .... As someone raised on the immortal chant of “oo it’s a corner” I will now have to reset that chant of 50 years with “Oo F it’s a corner” cos this lot put their own goal at more risk than the oppos. The finish by the Rovrum player was brilliant which at least means Wildsmith won’t have to change his name and address. Small mercies on a night with huge implications.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Ho ho ho ho ho ho. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Oh ho ho ho ho ho ho. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Ho ho ho ho ho ho. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
