There was no need to report this story, not everything that happens is reported, or do you think it is? If it HAD to be reported by journalists who rely on having good relationships with the club, they could have changed the way it was done and highlighted that the club had merely stuck to their word of not allowing people that chose to take a cash refund the right to purchase another season ticket. Don’t be ridiculous,I want to read FACTs reported accurately and impartially,not some sanitised version of what allegedly happened…I can than form a view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s yet to be established if the accusations are even true. Sheffield Wednesday did not respond to The Star’s request for comment. 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asteener1867 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 There is a ridiculous schism between owls fans its fair enough rowing on here about politics etc, but the all else SWFC, like this particular spat is self defeating. The bloke wanted his money back, cos he hadn't received what it "Said on the f.ookin' Tin" wheres the problem, ? "Yea but ..if you are a Proper" Wednesday fan". fizz that..these days... We don't know his circumstances from a financial point of view....or he might just be totally p*ssed off about years of sodding crap What on earth is the problem? He wants to watch The Wednesday next season, and he wants to pay for the "Whole season"..which from my experience, since Noah started to spit, usually ends in disappointment. Its the same when we get anywhere, and yer ......."Proper fan"..Moans about "Not being able to park, not being able to get a pie...etc etc ..self defeating etc I'm sure there are owls fans that want just the "10k" "Proper fans" in the ground.... its an inch offa f.ookin' stupid from any point of view ANY Wednesday fan who has been away for years, and sits next to me will get a "Welcome back mate"..Not "Where the f,ook have you been..." cos how do we progress with that crap?..We don't 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that was his first transaction after the claim, it's pretty much guaranteed. With all of the season tickets and start of the season being processed, any emails will have been pushed either upstairs for a decision, as getting it unfrozen after a claim will usually need to be signed off, or to the bottom so they can get the ones who haven't been to court sorted first.

kirksandallowl Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Do we know if this fan has been down to the ticket office or phoned them to resolve the issue, because from what I see he tried to buy a season ticket once online couldn’t manage it then went crying to the star. The article even says he’s only assuming he’s banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? This surely isnt a story thats only just appeared? Just very very strange timing Playing devils advocate here …. Exactly when would be the right time to publish the story? When is a good time that won’t have fans questioning the timing? I don’t think there is a time where fans wouldn’t claim that publishing it would be disruptive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
