The London stadium is a tricky one, having lived near there. It is a fantastic area for summer, a huge park, restaurants, canal, a genuine nice place for a lazy summer day. That translates poorly to a working man’s football club, who like to be know as rough. It doesn’t suit them or the fans. The ground is great for a European night, but they just are not at that level. And it translates poorly to mid table games and below. The amazing deal they have isn’t that smart, as they don’t benefit from hosting other events, as it’s not their ground, so financially it saves money but doesn’t make it. It would have actually suited Spurs more but that’s long gone.

Probably time to boycott a league game...
BowOwl replied to asteener1867's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
I still think it’s the one game for a sit in / pitch invasion. Nothing to lose unless we are actually winning the game. But would be nice little icing on the cake to rob them blades of a large win. It would easily make national news, sky will be stuck reporting on the protest as they have it as the main slot. It is the perfect now or never game -
Think it’s an incredible fair comment about inconsistencies in punishments

If chansiri is still in charge come Derby day
BowOwl replied to superchrissymorris's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
That has to be d-day. If we get to that point we plan for a full pitch invasion at a certain time if we aren’t winning. Winning would just be hilarious but even if drawing it’s the big one to make the big statement. Let the pigs have a strop and get the win by default. More press for us -
Do we think many have seriously bought the new kids kits? Unless in store you are looking at £80 for something that will barely last a year on anyone under 7. Even if there wasn’t a boycott that is just senseless
-
Spot on, this is their most winnable game of the season, ignoring us for the moment. Failure to win and I think their bubble will burst for a while. Ironic the great hollywood story could turn on a coin if we beat them
-
We will give them their first win in the championship in x years or whatever, bound to be on sky sports and their documentary. Heads in sand time

Liam Palmer talks about the situation at SWFC
BowOwl replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
I get the feeling the players will be bolder now with what they say. They know the fans back them but needed a game with the crowd to see that. We were lucky it was an away game. Home might have been a different atmosphere. Fans need to really get behind them now no matter the performances. -
Personally I think it look terrible. Huge owl looks weird, amazed they’ve managed to mess that up. Super shiny silver not so keen on either
-
As a pattern and kit, it’s fine, but it has nothing that makes people think Sheffield Wednesday. Purple / Pinks / Greens etc are not us. Oranges / Yellows / Black are Wendesday away. We keep chop changing it removing all identity.

Are we in danger of becoming too good?
BowOwl replied to Manwë's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Records will be broken this year I’m sure of it. Shame about which records they will be but let’s not stop that from putting them on the boards with pride -
Sounds like all the old guard have left or gone on strike? Guess we need someone from the youth squad to step up with our full support. Remember to give them our backing, it’s not their fault the boss refuses to pay Snooty and Holmowls wages. Whoever steps up, it’s going to be on a free, chance to get yourself in the shop window for the Wrexham matchday threads in January. All the best, ps, you have to pay for your own internet provider I’m afraid. Times are tough.

How we judged, clearly this owl had his helmet on ready for battle

With the Bannan rumours i have to admit defeat, we are seeing the slow death of SWFC in its current form. I want to look at happier times. Lord Snooty and your post match thoughts The fact that Adam le Fondre will join us soon and save us all The stunning custom coffee table I bought that’s yet to be delivered Every single photoshop thread And a Taylor swift rocket, oh Taylor how we would love you to help right now. Onto happier hobbies on the weekends.

Points deduction I reckon
-
Im taking this approach too. Only way I can still be positive. We have gone ultra secret, opposition scouts won’t have a clue what’s turning up, who, and even what kit they are going to wear. Leicester 0 - 6 Owls A stunned Leicester outclassed by tactical genius and team confidence in a ghost white 3rd kit with the old owl looking proud. Come back to this post after the game, I’m sure I’ll be spot on…

Talented SWFC youngster turns down contract offer
BowOwl replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Imagine being offered a pro contract at a huge historical English club as a teenager. Who would turn that down. It’s a kids dream Yet here we are and I couldn’t blame him in the slightest and would advise my kid to do the same That takes some beating -
Clarification on players handing notice in
BowOwl replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
I imagine at a huge guess, DC wanted to pay DRs wages so he couldn’t resign and lose out on compensation. Realistically DC not have been able to afford it, so agreed to not pay DR and use the money elsewhere but still get a compo from a club . Well that’s the smart move, so never happened -
We are a fantastic club for someone with money to burn, as we have the fundamentals of a huge natural fan base, history, big stadium, a real traditional football derby, and in the championship. A billionaire who hires good advisors could do very well as money and time is not an issue. — However, we are a terrible club for an intelligent businessman looking for growth, profit, shrewd business, and wanting the money of the premiership. There is too much investment and time needed across everything that will suck money dry for little return. All after paying way over the price due to the current owner while battling parachute clubs
