Popular Post Lord Snooty Posted April 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 23, 2022 (edited) Morning all. Are you excited? Or nervous? I thought I was excited. Full of beans. It would seem that perhaps things are getting to me more than I thought though A quick check in the toilet bowl after my morning ablutions ... It really is tighter than, well, a Nuns Chuff. If things go right we could be look ahead and thinking about robbing second spot, things go against and we could drop out of the zone and into seventh and it will feel like the world is coming undone. For what it's worth, I'm going to try and not even bother looking at other teams scores. Yes, I know, for some that's part of the excitement, but for me, I'm just going to focus on The Wednesday. That's the best way. Lady S before a big night out always used to be worrying about what other women were going to be wearing. How their hair was going to look. I, as a good husband , used to re-assure her, tell her not to waste energy on what others maybe doing. In much the same way I'd be today reassuring those lads in the dressing room not to worry about what other teams are doing. Just worry about doing yourself. "Don't worry dear," I'd say, "just concentrate on yourself. Fear not what foundation they use. What mascara. Just focus on yourself." I would reassure her. Of course, she would then appear from the room, face a mask of horror, alabaster white, with a slash of lipstick across that gurning maw. Still, there's only so much you can do when you have a face like a stuntmans knee, I suppose. But the point is this really , I suppose. Don't be relying on others to be less ugly yourself. Hmmm. Not much of a team talk. But the message is in there. It's in your own hands lads. Destiny is within your grasp. Don't fret over others. Don't worry about the ins and outs. Get out there and give your all. Run your blood to water. Do it for Wednesday. Do it for us. Do it for yourselves! Get out there and do the business lads! Speaking of business. I need the toilet again. --------------------------------------------- Gareth Ainsworths side are on a ten match unbeaten run and will provide a tough test for Wednesday who's struggles this season have mainly come on the road. Wycombe have changed formation since the turn of the year and seen an insurgence in results since playing a back four. Sheffield Wednesday hope to have Hutchinson back in the side and it is likely that Darren Moore will opt for the experience Massimo Luongo in the vital holding position in the Wednesday midfield. Chey Dunkley may also come in at centre back as Wednesday prepare to take on Ainsworths, self acclaimed, 'physical side'. The goal threat of both teams comes from their experience strikers. Vokes for Wycombe with 15 and Gregory for Wednesday with twelve. Stats for both teams point to any goals in this game come in the first quarter and the final quarter. --------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- Edited April 23, 2022 by Lord Snooty 27 14 7 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A47Owl Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Do it for Wednesday. Do it for us. Do it for yourselves! DO IT FOR YORKSHIRE. As the Yorkshire tea advert says. Good luck to the players and everybody watching and listening around the world. Biggest game since the battle of Pride Park. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hootsman Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Thank Snoots. Another exciting day in prospect in Wednesday world. Don't let the nerves creep in. This could be one of those historic days for us. Come on you blue and white beauties, win big for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 A little nervous today, we looked a bit tired (understandably) against Crewe, but to be fair got the job done. Wycombe are not all that, but are stubborn defensively, strong at home, have some experience in their team and play in a way that can hurt us, arguably more than MK Dons could. I should have more trust in us, but years supporting Wednesday prepares you to expect the worst and hope for the best. It's the business end of the season and this league is crazy. By 5pm we could have secured a play off spot, maybe still in the race for 2nd, or be out of the top 6! A 50/50 game for me this one, could go either way. A draw wouldn't be the end of the world, but if we can muster some energy in those tired legs and play like we have of late, can see us sneaking it. 1-2 Wednesday. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel. Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 If we win today I think we have a great chance of automatic. Problem is I think Wycombes qualities match up to our typical weaknesses. Physicality and set plays etc. My gut feel is we may struggle to win, so if we do it’s a sign for me! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Daz Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Trifle late milord. Speaking of Trifle, hope no-ones getting the jelly wobbles over this match. We're gonna have plenty of sprinkles on top. 1 - 4 to THE MIGHTY OWLS Gregory, Byers, Johnson and a pearler from Bannan. COME ON YOU BLUE AND WHITE WIZARDS !!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fablon Dunlop Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 (edited) I'll be watching on nervously this afternoon. This will be exactly the sort of team that causes us problems, physical, strong and with goals coming from all over the shop. Plenty of quality in our squad to see us through this one though and the rewards, if we win, could be huge.

Lord Snooty Posted April 23, 2022 Author Share Posted April 23, 2022 @GermanBird, I hope you'll be along soon to add to the thread. With your links and other news and stats. Not that I'm superstitious or anything. But if you don't we may lose. 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JemmoJemoJemmo Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 We’ve scored 3 goals in 8 league matches this season. Won all 8. So as long as Bannan scores three, we will win. Wycombe 1 - 5 Wednesday (Bannan 3, Gregory 2). Simples. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willie Henderson Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 An excellent, if slightly tardy OMDT Snoots. And you're absolutely right, our destiny is in our own clammy hands, so come on you beautiful boys, enjoy yourselves, play with passion and it's in the bag. Come on Wednesday! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pablo Bonvin Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Top thread Milord but like you, I am concerned about @GermanBird not having contributed yet. Come on GB your club needs you! I'm also nervy about today. Although I haven't filled the bog just yet (I can arrange for a supply of The Sun newspaperfor you Milord if you're running out of bog roll?) I'm going to predict a 2-0 defeat for us today. Partly because sadly I think that's what might happen but also because I never ever get any predictions right.
