7 players now handed in their notice
soldierowl replied to gypsyowl's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Can only assume the players handing their notice in are those wanted by the club. Once the resignation is accepted they are released, so a player we want rid of but can’t let go because they are in contract is unlikely to hand their notice in. After all we tend to pay high wages and they may not get that wage at another club. -
New pitches at Hillsborough and Middlewood underway.

Went to school with Alan Chappellow. His firm do pitches all round the country and if they follow his advice on maintenance we will have a cracking pitch. -
Could these players be leaving by end of January?

Hopefully Southampton’s easy win against Swansea will highlight the gulf between Premier League and Championship and stop them from recalling Shea. -
We ruined Rhodes. He was a fox in the box who had always played off a target man, Vaughan, Gested, but we tried to play him as a lone striker; was never going to work.

Had a very good game and very assured for a youngster. Bet the kick about at home were fun.

Don’t do it today, the answer is obscene!

10 points from losing position, best in the Championship.

Scored a great goal when we thumped Ipswich at their place in the early 90’s. Was sat with my Ipswich supporting Army pal and jumped up when he scored it. My mate said to all around it was battle shock (pre PTSD days) and that I was brain dead.

No Malik Wilks!! -
Most overrated SWFC player EVER?
soldierowl replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
I’d also go with Wim Jonk also, purely as the expectation was we’d signed one of the world’s best midfielders and he never played for us anywhere near world class. -
Without a pot to ******** in we need an undiscovered gem with pace, not an easy find. With his knowledge of German players perhaps look at stand out performers in lower leagues. Janice Mause at Ingolstadt has been getting some good reviews, plenty of pace and goals in an average team.

Man of the match - 'Boro (H)
soldierowl replied to Lord Snooty's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Is Buckley’s mum on this site, how the hell did he get a vote. went for Bernard. Valentin had a great first half, but went missing second half. -
Surprised no mention yet for Don Megson, great servant to the Wednesday and a terrific captain RIP.

Portsmouth- Wednesday - OMDT
soldierowl replied to Lord Snooty's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Be tempted to pull Windass and Brown for Gregory and James at half time. Both on bookings. -
For me the most impressive thing was the work rate. We closed down as a pack and put their defence under lots of pressure. No matter how much better than the opposition you are, it still pays to work hard, and we did that right up to the final whistle.

Not sure he can play with his back to goal.

Only Ron Springett better than him for Wednesday. Better than Woods.

Looks to me like 4 at the back with Johnson playing left back and Patterson right back. -

soldierowl replied to Lord Snooty's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Appear to have changed tactics. No pratting about at the back. Sunderland playing it out and getting caught, not us for a change. -

Surely 433 with Patterson right back.
