I’m a POTG supporter. I’ve upheld the boycott so far. However while others go to every match home and away it’ll be increasingly difficult for me to maintain that stance. So if you feel you should be going, then go.

Birmingham - All away tickets now sold out

Wether away fans are crucial to our protests is a matter of opinion. -

If POTG are going to boycott then also boycott away matches. Also there should be targeted boycotts of home matches including ST holders. I’d suggest the next 3 matches on Sky for maximum impact. -
If you pay on the day, please stay away tomorrow
essexowl2 replied to Athelwulf's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
400mile round trip when I get to a game. Therefore buy a pie, chips and a drink when I get to the match. Buy inside the ground cos I like to enjoy the atmosphere when I get there. Seems people/ST holders expecting POTG supporters to do all the heavy lifting while they watch every home game and pick up their points for away games? BTW first match of season I could have got to was Leeds. Didn’t go cos I support and will continue to support the boycott. Shame a few more people didn’t see the writing on the wall six months ago when they bought their season tickets. -

Thank you. So the £7.5m effectively appears in the SWFC bank account and can then be used by SWFC…..? -

My knowledge of finance could be written on the back of a fag packet so forgive me for being thick. I asked ChatGPT if any money ended up in Sheffield Wednesday’s account after the sale of the stadium to Sheffield 3 Ltd. This is the reply: “The stadium was sold for £60 million to Sheffield 3 Ltd, a company owned by Dejphon Chansiri, the club’s owner. In the club’s accounts, this sale was recorded as “profit on disposal of fixed assets”, helping to create a paper profit of around £38 million. However, according to the audited financial statements, there is no evidence that the club received the £60 million in cash. Instead, it appears the transaction was conducted via internal accounting entries — essentially moving numbers between companies Chansiri controlled. Source evidence: 2018–19 club accounts show £61 million in income from related parties — believed to be linked to the stadium sale — but cash flow statements do not show an equivalent cash inflow. BBC Sport and The Guardian both reported that no physical money changed hands between Sheffield 3 Ltd and the football club.” What I don’t understand, if the above is true, is how Sheffield 3 Ltd can now own the stadium without Sheffield Wednesday benefiting in any obvious way. Like I say I’m sure I’m misunderstanding something! -

Just To Make Sure There's No Confusion
essexowl2 replied to theowlsman's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Couldn't agree more. This is a very poor league, to get out of it you don't have to be a great team - an average team with one or maybe two talented players is all you need to be. Before January that's what we were - now we're just an average team who will make the play offs but almost certainly get no further.The answer is quite simple and doesn't involve discovering the South Yorkshire Messi or going tens of millions of pounds into debt. -
Top 5 Toughest Wednesday Players

Ten minutes to stitch the worse cut he's seen in 17 years - either he's f*****g quick or he's not seen many cuts!!

I don't think many clubs are going to get out of the Championship (the right way) with a player budget of £6m pa (I'm sure at this point someone will remind me that Chiping Ongar FC have won the Champions League for the last 3 years paying their players with washers and empty crisp packets). Our problem isn't that we can't finance our debt (although that may change if our revenue falls and interest rates go up) - its that we can't attract new investment because no one is going to put £25m into a team that has no prospect of Premiership football. Without investment we won't be able to get a squad capable of challenging for promotion - its a circular argument

I for one was bloody glad it was him that put the ball down on the spot in Cardiff in 2005

You may be right - however basically same team finished mid-table last season. So were they over-performing then or under-performing now? I daresay the truth is somewhere in between.
