  1. What kind of reception will he receive this evening?
  2. Last time I tried to pay £3.20 with cash I gave the staff member a £5 note plus a 20p. It literally blew their mind. Wasted about two minutes while they used the calculator on their phones to work it out.
  3. http://www.wsc.co.uk/the-archive/30-Clubs/2600-sheffield-wednesday-1974-75 Written 15 years ago - a bite-size guide to the that dross.
  4. Is she a centre back?
  5. It goes beyond which league we are in. I get a real sense from reading this forum and social media that if we stay up, the next manager is on a hiding to nothing. That kind of atmosphere makes me wonder if its worth renewing. We clearly have little to spend to improve, so i'm not sure what DC could do to turn around fanbase
  6. When the fans turned on Carlos
  7. Putting your thumb up???
  8. If you're coming from North then as mentioned, Halifax Road (cars were vandalised on the road off Railway Pub so best parking further up e.g. residential roads). Or any of the streets near the training ground (you can then leave north towards Stocksbridge Bypass/M1)
  9. There's nothing going on.
  10. And who gave Giles Coke a round of applause. The animosity on here for CC is hilarious. It's like some surreal conspiracy theory, you either believe CC is part of the problem and is laughing his socks off. Or that he did what 90% of managers do and that is run out of ideas and part company.
  11. I agree. Dragging up an old thread in this case is a bit moronic. Hooper pretty much started every single game until Xmas. Partnered by Fletcher for a big chunk then Rhodes in others. Rhodes offers the same as Winnall off the bench and Joao offers pace off bench. Fact is Butterfield has been turd, but we weren't to know that. A poor midfield and injuries places more pressure on back line and ultimately cost Carlos his job. I can't fault the deal, we took another card and bust. It happens. The fact he has got some game time and scored a few will help when we sell at end of season. We will make a decent profit.
  12. Add 2005 PO Final to that. State of that penalty and red card. VAR would have kept us down. For every loser there's a winner. I'm not a fan myself unless at the very least replays are shown live at stadium and the referee has to explain decision to crowd who don't know what the fluff is going on.
  13. Adrian Chiles is proof not anyone can do it. Don't mind Lineker myself. Or most of the pundits on BBC. Would rather watch Lineker & Shearer than "I'm Colin Murray" and Clinton Morrison bumble through some footage.
  14. Hate it when a #truefan gets names wrong... Kee-Fan Preest-Mun Dav-eed Hirsk Roo-long Niels-mom Poor-la Dee Can-nee-oaks Krees Bart-williebums
  15. Must have been his doppelganger doing to handshakes
  16. Abdi, Joao and Mattias still waiting for their chance... PS - I miss Urby
  17. This for me. I can't fault his first two seasons. We were only a penalty shootout away from another playoff final. We can all sit here and say that Huddersfield tactics were negative, but we could have gone all out and got smashed 3-0 and then it would have been game over. The rigidity of his tactics led to his downfall. Lots of teams in the top divisions have moved to a back three with wing backs and he has stuck to his guns. It just didn't work. One minor point that sticks in my mind is when he was offended this season at being questioned regarding attacking from the off, said something like 'you want me to play with three strikers all the time?!' - yeah we would
  18. Not enough clean sheets costing us. Gone from setting all sorts of clean sheet record two seasons running, to 5 so far. So many games this season we are chasing due to some to turd defensive performances.
  19. 8/10 Flounce. Would have scored higher with a sustained attack on CEO and the promise of throwing ST in bin. Good effort
  20. Full blown Illuminati
  21. Neither. Fox is awful. Get the feeling he doesn’t want to be here. Pudil may end up at CB. I would play Reach left back.
  22. No I don’t, we would probably get smashed. but I would rather be looking forward to an exciting cup tie. Nothing else to look forward to. And if a professional footballer (even those who played yesterday) can’t get exited to play a city or a Chelsea then god help us.
