And yet it was a fairly subdued atmosphere and plenty of people still having a moan. Football fans eh... especially when the days of Monk and Pulis are only two years ago. 5 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s League 1 but we attack teams at home in a way we haven’t done for sometime hence the impressive record when it comes to results and goals scored yet it’s not enough for some. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owls maniac Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Moan under the likes of Stuart Gray when we scored 13 at home in a season, now moaning when we have 22 by November. I do feel for DM and the players because it seems they can’t win with some sections of the fanbase. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hangonrose Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 .... has scored more goals in their home league games this season than Sheffield Wednesday (22). In their nine league games at Hillsborough, the Owls have scored three or more goals on five occasions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A win is a win and we are third, and got a few points back on Ipswich. Much to improve on and still a few things that frustrate me about the manager/team, but we ain't doing too bad atm.

I be happy to be lowest scoring if it meant we had won every game. we have scored 22 goals but also conceded 11 goals in 9 games. 13th best home defence in league. away from home 2nd best defence in the league, that Joe Wildsmith is in the best defence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Django Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Best not to read too much into stats The only stat that matters is the ones that have a P or an R next to the clubs name at the end of the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I watch football for entertainment and I like watching attacking football and goals. Of course we all want to play at the highest level possible but give me DM football in league 1 above Pulisball in the championship every day of the week. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team this year are good, arguably better than 2011/12. No proper rivals in the league, no exciting big teams expect us and maybe Derby. Dull year this year in my opinion and it shows.

Tewkesbury Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 We've underperformed at home for years. Everyone said Hillsborough was hard to play at, home and away alike. Maybe the players like the new peace and quiet during the match and the performances reflect that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The seasons we’ve had the higher budgets we’ve had very strong home records. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute silence, with mild clapping allowed if the ball is out of play, maybe a light 'yay' if we score. 2400 people tutting when Windass hits row z. It'd be unique anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lads with England flags in their Twitter handles keep telling me how boring the football is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
