Fantham, Finney and Megson all played at the same time and overlapped with Froggatt. That's what you call a settled side

To distract....cheer us up

What's the title -
Could we sing "Chansiri Chansiri go" to to the Danny Danny Röhl chant. If we get that ringing round the stadium every match it might get through his thick skin just how unpopular he is

Should we be worried

Peter Johnson was a terrific right back for Wednesday in the 1960s. He played 180 games, all in the top devison. He played 7 times in European matches including both games against Barcelona. He would be in my top 100 players of all time for the owls Belated birthday greetings.

Parachute Payment Clubs

Think you are correct on this one, so their position is worse than I thought -
Current squad who do you keep?
Oliver Cromwell replied to Andrew_Owl's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Windass will be leaving, a player who doesn't celebrate much, taking his shirt off and laying it on the ground and then waving to all the fans as he left the pitch looked to me like someone saying goodbye and thank you. -
Got to take into account the level they were managing at. Feel sorry for for fans who've only got more recent managers to compare. Catterick Buckingham Francis

Torquay United go into administration.
Oliver Cromwell replied to Busmansholiday's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Always been interested in Torquay after one of my biggest mistakes, taking my wife to watch Torquay V Chesterfield on our honeymoon. Was never forgiven -
Just stick an s on the end of Oh Danny Boy and turn the I and I've into we and weve got a ready made song that lots of people know and would sound fantastic ringing round Hillsborough. Any thoughts on this

When was your peak as a fan?
Oliver Cromwell replied to WimJunk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Agreed, great time to be a Wednesday supporter -
Rip, remember Pancho fondly. It was so difficult for defenders to get the ball off him when he was in possession.

R.I.P. Billy one of my earliest favourite players

Where does that rank?
Oliver Cromwell replied to hopevalleyowl's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
We were 5-3 down on aggregate from the first leg, then 6-3 down as they scored first, pulled it back to 6-6, they scored again before we got 2 more, 5-2 on the night, 8-7 on aggregate. Agree last night was better. -
Your top 3 games
Oliver Cromwell replied to Daniele Giovanni's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
One match I would always put in my list would be the Intercity cup game against Olympique Lyon in 1961. Lost the first leg 4-2 . At home they scored first to put us 2-5 down on aggregate. Score then went 1-1 (3-5) 2-1 (4-5) 3-1 (5-5) 4-1 (6-5) 4-2 ,(6-6) then Johnny Fantham scored in the 85th minute to make it 5-2 on the night and a 7-6 aggregate win -
I'm in my late 70s and even I can manage e-tickets, got one for the Crucible the other week and use them when traveling by train. It's time the club got its act together on this.
