Though shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary thee, nor the years condemn. And in the morning, and at the going down of the sun (on Saturday, after another Owls win), We shall remember Rita. Lovely , lovely lady who looked after us so, so well at away games as kids. Easy gets my vote as no 1 Owl.

Think Summer spending , then half it. Cos that's what we 'll have to spend in Jan.
-
He'd never played midfield before we converted him so 7 years not an issue. As Carlos said, Man U / Fergie trained. Plus, the statue in Fitzalen Square 'd defend better than our current right back - see goals conceded this season. And right back needs much left energy than midfield. Get him in , to bomb up right and help Murphy too.
-
Can someone please remind Monk this guy is best natural right back in club and would assist us there in defence and going forward.
-
Bought as a family birthday present without thought how to integrate into a team or use well (see with Marshall at Blackburn). Harris and Fletch can do similar here, just needs a run. With Fessi firing too top 6 can be done.
-
Poor, except 3 games a year. Bench at best.
-
He's ok as we shopped at Aldi in Summer but QPR'S centre forward showed his weaknesses when faced with quality.
-
Kieran back to his rightful replace at right -back would improve defence and attack.
-
Bet you can't name them because Chansiri and Paxo are the executive staff - Katrien did a runner - so responsible for SAG shambles by not attending a viatal safety meeting, nor delegating.
-
They thought we were desperate. With £55,000 per week wages though.
-
Should have sat with me in South Stand v QPR. They both looked garbage.
-
So why did Norwich think him good enough for EPL? Monk - wingers - target man - crosses - Rhodes - goals. Believe.
-
Rhodes will come good under Monk and his new strategy. Think Blackburn with Marshall and a top target man thought Jordan fed off so brilliantly.

Eric Taylor - Time to recognise his contribution
fred mciver replied to dunsbyowl's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Taylor and Stephens were giants compared to current owner and knew value of club to community. Even as a school kid, I could afford to go and see my Owls heroes and Pele at Hillsborough but now I need a mortgage to get in. -
An update on SAG shenanigans please Mr Chansiri
fred mciver replied to crookesowl's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
How can he give you an update if he doesn't go to vital safety meetings? About Leppings Lane. Crazy. -
Chansiri landed us with a soft embargo, followed now by an EFL investigation into a joke stadium sale valuation. His head should roll. For balance, Joao and Monk - now he has a new laptop - were good business by him but club not attending SAG safety meeting is a disaster.
-
Nothing, too ashamed to say it's down to a power - crazed owner who doesn't know what he's doing, nor can he delegate to a CEO etc while on hols (cos no one decent will work with him). And this for Leppings Lane , most sensitive curva in world football. Frightening.
-
Lee is the best right back in club by a mile, remember those performances after he first joined us. Plus he's only had 3 good games in midfield.

What ever happened to Cup Fever?

£20 a pop to watch reserves, after £40 a throw for first team don't help. -
EFL have fresh concerns over Hillsborough sale

I'd have a read mate. Osama's terrorism funding came from this family 's construction work and some are currently convicted of bribery and corruption, plus their nephew - Osama's son - has just been topped by Americans for running his Dad's army. Rarely get bored about Owls except sat in South Stand watching a QPR kid on two bob a week run rings round our midfield millionaires all game , even without getting outta third gear (and that when they gave us a goal start). Then , their young centre forward - who Chansiri should have got on loan in Summer - in a good technical and tactical display urinates on our defence, where Hector should have been (who Chansiri can't now afford after years of flushing dosh down bog). However, I do get angry when I see how our clubs being run and see why we have lost 20% of crowd in 2 years, are now down to last 23,000 (while Leeds gone from 19,000 to 35,000 in same period). And we need 10 points above safety cos EFL and Boro Chairman are coming this season. £23 million to £60 million stadium valuation indeed.That's BOJO land. -
No , Lee is best right back in club. By a mile. And average in't middle.
-
Lee back to rightful place at right back would be a big start. Then a Red Bull take over cos Chansiri's clearly had enough with major funding (see Hector mess and no major upgrade on training facilities).
-
Would have helped if club had attended July's vital safety meeting.
-
Of course crowds are crap now as premium prices ok when winning or buying top players and hope, not for this lot. Plus any body got a Grandad trying to figure club's crap website for ticket buying? Shambles.

EFL have fresh concerns over Hillsborough sale
fred mciver replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
OMV badly affected as ground's in a flood zone now and zoned only for sport and leisure planning. Also depends on a willing buyer and a company that entered it any contract well before actual sale is forced. But how dare EFL raise these questions in WednesdayWorld where we pay more to watch Fox than you do Liverpool, where Hooper's better than Vardy for similar price, ditto McGuire v Van Aken, you buy a club losing £1 million per year then mis -manage to £30 million in red annually, where your agent also represents your manager and some players, you pay £800, 000 per game for some Watford has been and also put some geezer on bench for £20,000 and virtually never play him. Finally, you employ a good manager but under investigation by 3 clubs for allegedly inflating transfer fees with his agent mate and now your new manager can't find his laptop. And you don't attend a vital safety meeting that's now causing loyal fans loads of problems. No , EFL should be investigated for daring to question such a well -run outfit. What next, letting Bin Laden fund clubs?
