  1. Have to worry about the potential long term impacts this could have on some of the youngsters entire careers. If the young lads still physically developing pick up injuries they obviously impact their development because they're out injured rather than training and playing. But if they get recurring injuries or do long term damage it could genuinely be the difference between an OK career in league 2 against perhaps a championship level player.... 10-15 years career at a completely different level (and being compensated very differently).... Bruno Fernandes Pierce Charles Gui Siquera Ernie Weaver All hot prospects picking up serious injuries already....
  2. Agree. Whilst I understand fans wanting players or staff as employees of the club to do x, y, z. It's an unfair expectation. Us fans can only influence and control what we can through our own actions. We shouldn’t expect anyone else to do anything on our behalf.
  3. I dont think anyone expects any 'new' season tickets to be bought. And the evidence of very low potg supports this. I think people only expect potential veteran ST holders to renew (assuming by your post, that you are one). So. Veterans seats won't get snapped up? Another veteran "had this seat for years" will only renew to their seat. No one new is going to get a season ticket. There's no vultures circling to try and snaffle people's seats. I think the club and new owners would try to support the veteran ST holders. I also think if say a change of ownership happened and some 'new STer' was faster to buy a ticket and picked your seat that people would be understanding and if you bought one for the row behind/a few seats along/whatever the person 'in your seat' may well be willing to swap? Maybe they'd go on to sit behind you and your friends and family for years to come, maybe they'd become a friend....
  4. Trust statement doesn't mention away games? Haven't seen criticism in this thread either? Lets keep 1 thread free from divided fans for once
  5. In terms of hopefully what it will achieve. Chansiri sees an empty stadium because fans have come together to boycott. Chansiri knows the same call to boycott also called for non renewal of Season Tickets. Chansiri therefore sees what the future could hold - a future without say £6million of funding from fans buying season tickets.... Hopefully helping him understand that time really has run out and he cannot keep going.
  6. I hope those who live in Sheffield and are able to spare an hour or 2 message the trust to volunteer to stick some posters up. Definitely think posters and not relying just on social media is a great idea.
  7. Huh? Think the 'count' was 52 people on the pitch. So less than 0.5% of the Wednesday attendance went on the pitch. (Not a judgement either way, just the numbers and maths) But you say more would have gone on if there was big announcements telling people to get off? Like some reverse psychology, or?
  8. I still find myself shocked at the amount of fans more concerned about themselves, their ego, point scoring against other fans and / or 'being right' than they are about Sheffield Wednesday.... Come on.
  9. It also wont happen. Which is fine. We'll never get 100% boycott. We'll never get 100% protest. We'll never all give a player the exact same match rating out of 10. It isnt how the world works. But honestly applauding and supporting fellow fans for whatever effort they did make: -boycott -protest -sing -get on pitch -tag Thai union group on social media -whatever Is there way forward. Too many people spending too much time dragging down other Wednesday fans or pointing out what they perceive as the flaws or negatives or what could have been, rather than focusing on the positives and celebrating what has been achieved.
  10. Yeah fair point, well made
  11. Baffling. Thanks mate
  12. Mate take a breather. You've gone in on people thanking/being grateful/appreciative of those who went on the pitch. Saying those that did are all going to get banned. Now you're defence to people calling you out is asking them if they went on the pitch??
  13. What was the reaction like to the fans on the pitch at 10 mins from where you were?
  14. He isnt here to do it himself. Hopefully anyone he asks to chase it up on his behalf arent too motivated to do so (if I wasn't being paid I'd lack motivation). He also has much bigger issues to be attending to if hes going to put time and effort into anything swfc I hope it isnt trying to go after fans for protesting. Fingers crossed on lottery and world peace too
  15. I really hope theres no bans/arrests/fines for those who went on
