Hi All , firstly i am not very good at posting but please bear with me , my better half Diane passed away this morning , she was a supporter for the 32 years we have been together i have spent the last 20 or so years as her 24/7 carer , some on here will know about my Di , others won't but i felt it was only fitting for me to post about my better half as through Owlstalk, Where the kindness that was shown to me and to her during Megson's last game as manager and Dave Jones reign gave us both a happiness that we shared for thirty two years by being a part of this great club and later a part of this Forum , thank you for doing just that and making our days a little better god bless to all , RIP my Diane , salt of the earth and always put others first , she was a gem

I must be mad. Just bought my first EVER season ticket. 168 mile round trip, nearly 4,000 miles extra each year on the motor. Well less the 840 miles for the usual 5 matches. Please be worth it!

In all seriousness. 16 goals and 8 assists last season. 31, always fit, plays anywhere, brilliant character. For a small fee, he'd be a brilliant acquisition.

I'm a mate of David Fords, and we were at the Corporate thing on Monday night. The warmth of the greeting given by David Storch when David Ford was introduced to him was really genuine, and I know that meant a lot to David, who has consistently attended Hillsborough throughout the Chansiri years and been disappointed with the direction of the club. I know David and his wife have been invited tonight and are attending. Davids a lovely fella and all his kids/grandkids have been indoctrinated into the Wednesday Way. This is another example of the club doing the right thing under this new leadership.

Honestly it's so unbelievably positive isn't it Getting involved on a granular level to make sure he's embedded right into the hearts and minds of our fanbase Everything sounding and looking positive Unbelievable season ticket sales Unbelievable new matchday, corporate and box/suite facilities matched with an incredible number of signups for it And we have July to look forward to when we can sign players again It's all so positive Long may it continue

Aaaaand I’ve been banned

to all who posted Kind thoughts and wished me well in my Di post i have tried to thank you all individually , so a big thank you again if i missed any of you , as you will never know how much your thoughts and post's kept me going , thank god i had somewhere to go and talk to you owlstalkers that i know and love, god bless you all each and every one ,

Not sure why we need all this to be honest. Chansiri managed to run the club on his own without all this….

2nd one this week ......for anyone in the disabled section just heard that Pete. Beardsley as passed away .....Pete was a polio victim from the 50s who despite his disability followed the owls all his life and even though he lived in Spain for the the last 20 years kept his season ticket .....my memory of him was 1969 away at Sunderland they wouldn't let him in with his wheelchair so we put that back in the car carried him in and stuck him on the first bar of the floodlight pylon ( unbelievable these days).....and we won 1-2 .......RIP Pete

Got a spare few minutes so just watched Simon Wilson interview. I rarely post on here, more of a reader than a writer, but thought i would share my views. Having supported the Owls since 1968 when i moved to Sheffield as a kid, like so many on here, i have seen so many ups and downs. But this last few months feels so different. Firstly, we all know we will have poor results this next season.....well we are Wednesday......but i just feel that it will not affect the positiveness that currently surrounds the club. All the new guys talk so well and appear to 'get' Wednesday. Yes they are saying what we all long to hear, but they are not going over the top. We need money investing in the infrastructure and they recognise that. The club has already talked to players with a view to joining.......and why wouldnt they. Storch and his team are putting the time....and miles in to meet with future stakeholders. What is not to admire about how professional they have been. Round pegs in round holes. Stay positive, all bodes well.......even if we lose to Bromley!!! In the words of Storchy/Bruce......enjoy the ride.

Sorry its a no from me. Signing a player who is 37 on decent wages is not moving forward for me.

He was 31 yesterday.

Simple thread to put all signings/ renewed contracts in just to save scrolling through the rumours thread Ricardo Santos- 1 year with 1 year option Liam Cooper - 1 year Max Lowe - 1 year with 1 year option Jordi Liongola - 3 year

Hi Owls -- David Storch joined us in the studio today for a catch-up. Check it out via the link below: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0nt03hc

Yes. I'll miss him.

Sure a few will be upset by this but I'm honestly not fussed that he's gone. He was a workhorse but his output wasn't great. Glad to see we have done the sensible thing if a new deal couldn't be agreed.

And it begins

Not a bad goals to game ratio

Hold on, how did the rest of you get accounts on here?

Got to love our new owners

Hey @swfc family, Coming off another action packed week in Sheffield with David Bruce and team joined by @michaelestorch and a day with Tom Costin. Love the executive team DB is building, Simon Wilson + new member Oscar Chamberlain. Lots of leadership energy coupled with consultant partners Peter and Paul, Icon, Arup, General Sports, Jim O’Hara and others. DB presented future state to over 500 supporters on Monday, all Wednesday employees on Wednesday and 35 Legends who we welcomed back to the club on Thursday. Shared our search for excellence across the full spectrum of activities committing to engaging with fans, players and Sheffield community. We strive for @swfc to be the place to be for all… fans, players and community . Let’s make football fun!! All the best, David

Almost goes without saying but.. speaks really well. "Players for now, players for the future". "Balance". No moaning from the usual suspects when we announce Bannan and Vardy, please!

If we're doing this let's set expectations

Yes please. Perfect for L1 and brilliant sh*thouser.

We've got it right for us I think. Henrick did an amazing job last season just keeping the players fighting and playing for us, the shirt and themselves. We are now seeing that he was doing all this with facilities that aren't even up to non league standard and having to do so much more than a manager should. Keeping him in place means we have someone who knows the place inside out. He knows what we need and it seems Storch is giving it to him. If it doesn't quite work out then we will make a change, same as if we brought someone new in and it didn't work.

Apparently

Darren Purse?

Sh!t anyway

Shall we call this out for what it is? Yet another 'Pederson Out' thread......

Dave do you spend more time on their forum than ours? we laugh at them for being so invested in us and it’s all you post about mate

I'll always have a soft spot for Leicester after you supported us in our protest against our former owner at your place last season. I'll never forget this.. I genuinely wish you all the best with what's going on at your club.

That’s brilliant business Potentially getting £1m+

The club will probably change their minds then.
