NeonLeon Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 (edited) Think where we also differ from the likes of Macclesfield, Bury and even Wimbledon is this wouldn’t be a surprise. The clubs effectively been skirting with liquidation for the the last 20 years. It’d be like the water finally breaching the defences and finally washing the whole thing away. .

poite Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Quite honestly if Wednesday liquidate and cease to exist I'll simply become someone who doesn't really support a team. Strangely enough ill probably take my 6 year old son to watch leicester just down the road from where we live which will be probably the most enjoyable football I'll have attended for about 25 years 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussieowl87 Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 I feel like I would still *follow* the hypothetical phoenix club, should something of the like arise (pardon the pun). What would be mixed emotionally for me would be the (presumed) demolition of Hillsborough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldog Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 40 minutes ago, LetsMoveOn said: So, if/when we’re liquidated, what happens then? How likely is it that we reform in the lower leagues, say 8th or 9th tier? Maybe a ground share with Sheffield FC at their new stadium they’re having built at Meadowhead? Just wondering what our most likely options will be. Having supported club for may years and followed the hard work in them finally achieving the project of the new ground with very little support from anyone (including both Sheffield clubs!) I would be loathe to let "The Wednesday" be any part of it. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legendaryswan Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Football in general outside the prem is facing tough times, it wont be just us thats got cash trouble. Covid is here to stay,I can see quite a few clubs filing for bankruptcy in the coming season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Think we have quite a bit to go before we ceased to exist but do have a few very tough years ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, us and many others have been living outside their means for many years. It’s only a matter of time before it catches up with you. And it’s looking like we’ll be the first big club to go under. I was actually being sarcastic. For what its worth I agree with you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is part of the problem. We are by no means a big club.. We may have had a few decent years decades back but it all means zero now. Not accepting our stature will see any phoenix club as a failure as our targets always set too hign. We'd be selliing Prem return season tickets... in the conference. It's time some people woke up. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubs that start again aren't the same club. When it inevitably happens, I'll be finished with football and will focus on other hobbies, interests and more important things than sport. What is “it”? The company registration number? The current legal entity of SWFC was only formed in 1990, does that make everything that went before when it was a different company invalid? Surely “Wednesday” is more than just a legal registration? Edited June 6, 2021 by kobayashi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i used to be sc_owl Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 A lot would depend on how a phoenix club would come about. I’m not sure there would be much call for it in all honesty. In general, our fans are just way too accepting of mediocrity and incompetence. You just have to look at how long it’s taken some people to wake up re: DC. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pOWLtergeist Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Think I'd prefer to support sheffield FC and boost their league status, as the world's oldest club they should be higher in the football league. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm not saying their shouldn't be ambition , but if you set that as our bar then failure is almost a cert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finding it hard to give enough of a poo to get behind starting a new team. Football is irretrievably ruined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
