Popular Post Lord Snooty Posted April 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 16, 2021 "Oh, you're back" "Sir" "Well I don't know why you've bothered really. We're doomed. Doomed!" "Mr Hargreaves has given me an extension to my contract ,Sir" "Aye! And what a burden that will be when we're a 3rd division forum . A millstone it'll be. Crippling us!!" "We're not in the 3rd division yet though ,Sir" "Mores the pity. I can't take any more of this. Did you see QPR and Swansea?" "A couple more nails in the coffin, I must admit ,Sir" "A few more! I mean, just how many nails can it bloody well take!" "Quite a few by the looks of it Sir" "Good God. It's like one of those nightmares where you know you're having a nightmare but you can't wake up anyway. It just goes on and on. Never ending torment!" "Bristol aren't in the best of shape at the moment either though, Sir" "No, no they're not. But what does that mean when you're playing the Wednesday, eh? Nothing. Nada. Nothing at all. Clubs have injured players crawling from their sick beds when they know they've got us next up! There'll be chaps on crutches begging their managers for a start to get their confidence up!" "A slight exaggeration ,Sir" "Well... I've had enough. It's all false dawns. False optimism. You see the Cardiff game and you think 'Ho! What! A chance, a glimmer' , and then before the euphoria has worn off we're crashing down again." "City, 'Boro, Rovers, Forest and Derby. All winnable games, Sir. As bad as it's been. Rotherham beat Derby 3-0. Wycombe beat Blackburn. Surely Wednesday can. IT's not over until-" "Don't mention the fat lady. She sang last week." "All I'm saying is, don't write them off just yet sir, there's plenty of points still to fight for" "Fight for?! Fight for?! These haven't got any fight in them" "Well actually, Sir, apparently there was a bit of a set-to in the dressing room just the other night. So there's some fight in there." "Super! Any chance we might see a bit of it on the pitch or are they allergic to grass!" "All I'm saying is, a few good results and it could go to the wire. Win at Derby on the last day to stay up. Just think, Sir. What a story that would be" "Oh, it'd be some story all right. We haven't won there since Sweyn Forkbeard was on the throne!" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WEDNESDAY V's BRISTOL CITY Apr 17, 2021 Kick Off: 12.30pm Hillsborough Stadium With just five games remaining Wednesday are left needing miracles. Sat in a run of only two wins in the last 13 matches, keeping just one clean sheet in the process. Tuesday night's 2-0 home defeat to Swansea City was our 22nd in the Championship this season...speaks it's own tale. Bristol City ended a club-record run of six successive home defeats with a goalless draw at home to Nottingham Forest last weekend. The Robins were fortunate to come away with a point after failing to have a single shot on target and only 37% possession, in contrast to Forest, who had 16 shots on goal and dominated for large spells of the match. You know the drill... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wednesday are unbeaten in their last five home matches against the Robins, winning four of those games and keeping a clean sheet in each of their last three. Bristol City beat Sheffield Wednesday 2-0 on home soil in September and another victory on Saturday would see them secure their first league double against them since the 2007-08 season under former boss Gary Johnson. ------------------- Wednesday ------------------ Wednesday might change the deckchairs. But, the trumpet is parping. The hull is breaching. Man the lifeboats. Callum Paterson could return to the first XI at the expense of Liam Shaw. The fun loving Scotsman is one of the only Wednesday players who's scored goals with any regularity this year. Dunkley may replace Tom Lees at the heart if defence. ------------------- Bristol City ------------------ Bristol City have a number of first team players injured, with striker Sam Bell the latest to join the likes of Alfie Mawson, Callum O'Dowda, Chris Martin and Liam Walsh on the treatment table. Famara Diedhiou has begun two of the last three matches on the bench, but could be handed a start in attack ahead of Nakhi Wells. Sam Pearson started his first senior game for the Robins last weekend and may keep his place in the first XI. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Get Well soon Darren Moore Wishing the boss a quick and full recovery --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 21 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manwë Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 The season starts now. Wednesday 1 - Bristol 0. Against all the pessimism, the glimmer of hope is now shining down brightly upon us. The story of all stories about the season Wednesday stayed up when the world was against us is nearly complete. The final chapter has been opened. Mark my words. Sheffield Wednesday are staying up.

scilly owl Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 A robust “ we’re doing it for the gaffer” win. ( they should do it for the gaffer every week) But if we do come away with three points could we please refrain from all the “ it’s on, could we, it’s still possible “ delusions... I can’t take all that false hope. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NobbyStyle Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Great OMDT Lord Snooty & good that Stubbs is back in your line up. So BC are on a bad run of form. Early pressure & an early goal will see heads drop & a stroll to victory. Problem is I don’t know if it will be them or us doing the head dropping or strolling. Best wishes to DM for a speedy recovery. UTO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazzamk2 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Snoots' OMDT, never fails to hit the spot. Thank you good sir. I'm an optimistic fella, generally, but it's going to take one humungus turnaround to stop to this relentless suction into league one we seem to be caught in. Is it possible yes. Is it likely no. Only time will tell. UTO and best wishes and a speedy recovery to Darren Moore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N0rtherner Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Thanks for that OMDT! I feel wonderfully detached from how Wednesday will perform today, I've got my sights set on League One. Bristol City on a bad run, we all know we're gifting them a win... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
