  1. Vapes are expensive, must have been a posh hoolie.
  2. This is the thinking i like. On this, isn't there an old train track that used to go into the city but to a different train station, i believe an old unused part ends near Owlerton. If so the infrastructure should already be there for a train to and from here. Caveat - Not a Sheffield native so my info might be rusty.
  3. Deduct a million points this season! The season is done. So long as next season is a new, fresh start then thats a great place to be.
  4. Villa Park is a decent old ground but it is located in a really poor area. I can't say it makes me want to rush and spend a lot of time there personally no matter how well it has been redeveloped. Id like to see a new ground located with enough space to develop a "Owlerton Village" with shops, bars, restaurants, social football areas (like TOCA social) etc. We need some 10x thinking here for me.
  5. Sad news. RIP xx
  6. You are limiting the club with this train of thought really. Spend £50/100m giving the old girl a glow up, and still hit revenues for 23 days a year. I can only surmise the people that don't want to move are because of selfish reasons. Ie the journey in is 10 minutes on the bus, or they are sentimental fans. No fan wishing the club to progress would want us to stay and throw money at a ground that is literally in a flood zone. I just cannot understand the argument to stay. Think bigger.
  7. We HAVE to move if we want to reach the heights we are striving for. We are surrounded by a main road, houses and a river. Transport links are awful and parking even worse. The match day experience compared to other clubs and sports is as bad as I've experience. Go to a game at Man City or a similar sized European club like Hamburg SV for a game. Thinking even bigger go to an NFL game (Allegiant Stadium / Vegas Raiders was one I went to recently) and it will just blow your socks off. I work in Birmingham and the buzz created by the new complex being built is palpable. Even non fans are excited about the development. Generating money every day of the year is the aim and that's where we should also be shooting towards. Let's just move!
  8. I honestly cannot believe that there is no space in the whole of Sheffield for a new stadium and complex. If there is no space then someone with deep pockets needs to buy up some land and existing businesses. In these hard times people will be looking to downsize / move / exit.
  9. The fact there is a statement, is the statement. WAWAW X
  10. *checks if this is Sheffield Wednesday! Simple really isn't it. Looks after your "customers" and they look after you. Kudos to Kris and team.
  11. You would hope anyone incoming would make the smaller creditors whole. Not only as a way to say thanks for sticking by the club in tougher times but also to promote a good working relationship hence forth. I don't see a world where that doesn't happen. Not as part of the actual takeover but maybe a goodwill payment afterwards.
  12. I wonder if DC has ever sold anything in his life? I mean he is so bad at it. 10 confirmations of £50m after 2 weeks. Wow.
  13. This newbie on The Talk doesn't phase an old boy like me. When he is dissing our Svan-tastic midfield dynamo I will call out such blasphemy. Obviously he doesn't remember Ronnie Waxwork!!
  14. I can't accept this. He is a cracking box to box midfielder, especially for our position. Enables Bannan to play his stuff. He workrate is phenomenal. His final ball could be better and he needs a goal or two adding to his game but he is not poor. Pelupessy / Ronnie Wallwork were poor CMs. Not our Svante.
