@owlstalk Posted May 7, 2021 Author Share Posted May 7, 2021 91 - The Inside Story Of Sheffield Wednesday's 1990/91 Season Its here! I've had a few copies dropped through the letterbox and am so excited I put on my white Nike strap on my Apple Watch to take this photo of it 91 - The Inside Story Of Sheffield Wednesday's 1990/91 Season The INSIDE story of the 1990/91 season, told by those who were right there at the heart of it from players to physios and of course Big Ron himself who managed the success of the team (before Trevor Francis took over and ruined our club) This book has all the stories and they're not just the ones you have heard a million times on the circuit either - these are interviews with Alex Miller, one of our favourite sports writers currently plying his trade at Sheffield Star and (along with Joe Crann) working hard to change the perception of local writers. This book covers the season, the high's, the lows and the scandals and the success. These are the memories, the stories and the tales of those who actually created this amazing success at Sheffield Wednesday and I can't recommend it enough Every Wednesday fan should have one - even if you were too young at the time to see it yourself, the stories are legendary, the players are legendary and let's face it we all need some happy stories in our lives right now right?

Not wanting to rush through it as it's really well put together. Some things I've got so far David Hirst would have gone for 100 million in todays market. I'm not sure why I didnt rate Paul Williams as much as I should have. Ron Atkinson galvanised that team but god I miss characters in the game and that team was full of them. Trevor Francis was a bit of a knob. I'd recommend it to everybody Think Williams had some critics as he wasn't as clinical as Hirst, looking back not many were. We were blessed to have two strikers like them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pleat was the only manager in the next 5 PL years to get anywhere near when we finished 7th in 1997. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annoyingly I spoke to him a couple of weeks post-deadline when he came up with Bristol City. Plenty of insight on all three of them in there, though. Whole chapters - more or less - on all three. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose it could have the exciting element of a disaster movie to it. Starts off well, everyone having a great time but then the captain spots something on the horizon around 93/94........ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't do much media anymore, mate. He lost his wife a couple of years ago and have stepped back from football, which seems fair enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
