  1. 3 times in a year we have let the wrong player take a penalty and it has possibly cost us a win . Ugbo against millwall , windass against preston last season when smith was on the pitch and today . It really needs to be made clear who’s on penalties and made clear there is no room for sentiment
  2. If we get ambitious and wealthy owners and the aim is top half premier league , getting into Europe on a semi regular basis and hopefully the odd trophy we need a big modern stadium with all the mod cons to generate as much income as possible . By the time a new owner got any plans underway there will be 3 sixty thousand stadiums in London , one in Birmingham A fifty and sixty thousand stadium in Liverpool sixty and one hundred in Manchester , seventy in Newcastle and fifty odd in Leeds . That’s as well as the strong possibility of villa , Chelsea and others going above fifty thousand . How could we compete with a thirty / forty thousand stadium wether that be hillsborough or elsewhere . You don’t build a new stadium purely for a football club it’s for concerts , big fights and any other event you can get . We need to think big or we may as well give up
  3. Birmingham may be a bigger city and may have better transport links and better shops but Birmingham city are not a bigger club than Wednesday . Build it and they will come , ambition is what is required
  4. Definitely , should have been sent off for punching Blair .cannovillr was a Hail Mary we should have coped with but Thomas shouldn’t have been on the pitch . That was our big chance to win a trophy under wilko , we were on an upward trajectory and would have had two relegated sides between us and glory . I know it didn’t work out like that for Chelsea but I still think it was our best chance
  5. What is certain is we can’t keep hillsborough as it is or merely tart it up a bit .its shocking we have gone from having the best club ground in England to one not fit for purpose . A upgrade is possible with a new leppings lane stand , a extension , new roof and upgrade of concourses and facilities on the kop and modernisation of facilities and concourses on the north . But I feel to truly progress we need a new modern stadium with a capacity and surrounding attractions not just for us but for concerts , boxing matches and any other events that bring in money . Of course this is all dependant on the Desires and resources of our new owners . That is why I don’t want a Ashley type who delays what is now urgent action on the stadium new or old
  6. Doesn’t all this mean someone wanting to buy cheap , run cheap and sell relatively cheaply is out of the running? Someone like Ashley would be lucky to turn a profit given how much it would cost to gain control of the club and added costs of a near complete squad rebuild to get us back in the championship and stable plus remedial work on the stadium . We are still a good deal but only for someone with a long term plan and plenty of money
  7. They are terrified , they know with competent owners with a bit of money we will overtake them and being better than us is all they want and all they can hope for . If we get an owner with serious money and a plan it’s game over and they know it , the Waltons or something similar and they will go into meltdown
  8. If the Waltons are interested and want us surely it’s game over . They would come out top in any criteria and by some distance
  9. Could literally be anyone , suppose Ashley will be the favourite but only because the situation fits his mo . If and it’s a big if the Walton’s and /or ferritta were ever interested surely the money they would save on the purchase price would balance out the inevitable relegation . Personally I hope for someone who starts the rebuild now rather than someone who wants to flip us . Please let it be the Walton’s or someone similar
  10. Hopefully a sell out and hopefully the first of many . Although it’s almost certain we are down and there are some dark days ahead we need to show any potential owner what they could end up with . Maybe some investors will be put off by league one football we have to show them that a turnaround could be very quick as we will be right behind them
  11. Danny is the best thing that happened to Wednesday in years but unfortunately he had a cretin running the show . The rangers job may be a case of right job wrong time just like the Wednesday job . I wish him well if he gets it and I still see chansiri forcing him out as one of his biggest crimes
  12. Has to be every game building up to the pigs game when I’d be looking to get it called off . I think today showed the stewards will do next to nothing and once you get a few hundred on it will quickly escalate . Their an be no going back now going to home games is soul destroying and our very existence is at stake
  13. Every one has won a major trophy or reached a major cup final in my lifetime bar one
  14. A man who could have got us promoted on a relatively low budget ousted by an idiot ,, chansiri again self sabotaging
  15. It’s about time people just refused to play the game . When we played arsenal in the cup final i was talking to two gooners who didn’t have tickets they told me they would wait till just before kick off and get tickets from a tout at below face value because they had done it before , ive done it myself at test matches . All we have to do is play the system and it will collapse unfortunately human nature may well prevaile
