When people talk about moving I get the impression they think we will end up like Everton, Spurs, or Aresnal. We wont, we will end up looking like, Wigan, Cardiff, or Derby. Let's keep it beautiful people.
I managed to get back to Sheffield on the last train from St Pancras after a game at Millwall. I remember it being a really close thing though and I am not sure what time the train was as it is a few years ago now.
I think you captured this really well. Sometimes it's nice to get back to basics away from all the downsides of modern football (I appreciate it also has advantages). I will always prioritise Wednesday but I also enjoy being at the oldest football ground in the world and have always felt really welcome there. I would encourage anyone who has never been to give it a try and you don't have to wander far before you come across some fellow Owls (there seems to be quite a connection between the 2 clubs).
P.S. I hadn't realised Pudil had moved on. I saw him watching one of the games recently and assumed he was injured. Pedersen was also watching too!
I don't think it has to be either/or. I am an Owls season ticket holder and have been to 80 odd grounds following them away. However, I also really enjoy going to Hallam, having a beer, and sometimes watching Daniel Pudil play. I think they are quite different experiences really and I don't see it as an issue of divided loyalties as the standard and league position are world's apart. Plenty of room for both in my world.
I wouldn't say so mate. I only have 560 points and could have got tickets for Leicester, Bolton, and Portsmouth. I can't see us selling Bristol out a few weeks after Christmas. It is a decent trek and a lot of people will need to save cash. I went a couple of years ago and I think we only sold about 2000.
I would always watch Wednesday over Hallam as I have been in love with the Owls for over 40 years. That said, Hallam is great and I enjoy going there too. I particularly like the fact you can get 2 cans of Lost Lager for a fiver and there is a refreshing lack of razzmatazz. Plus, I got to kick the ball back to Pudil, the other day when it went out of play. Closest I will get to playing for Wednesday!
First time I heard it was at West Brom away. I think it was about 20 years ago but not really sure. I do remember they only had 3 stands open. We were losing and the fans just got louder. We seemed to sing it for ages that day and I had to ask a mate what the words were (perhaps this means it was sung before then?). Anyway, the story ends happily as we ended up winning. 2-1 I think.
