  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
  16. I’m not renewing till He is gone . As I see it if enough Renew to allow him to carry on we are heading for oblivion . If we all refuse he will have to go and new owners would most likely sell them at early bird prices and in huge numbers
  17. I actually reckon if only ST holders turn up for league games it will lose him more money due to him having to employ stewards , staff at kiosks put the lights on etc with nothing being spent to cover it , but I think a one game total boycott would send out a big message . The main thing remains getting everyone on board for the early bird boycott that will cripple him
  18. Totally agree said in another thread we need big name ex players , actors and musicians to voice support . Michael Vaughan did a piece the other day and tommy Craig posted a great video the other week but we need waddle , hirst , Sheridan and the like speaking out along with youre jarvis cockers and arctic monkeys and anyone else with a public presence that will attract media attention and bring bad publicity for chansiri
  19. I think it’s very easy when it’s someone else suffering to show support and sympathy but when it’s you things get confused . Non of us really know whats happening non of us know what to do for the best we are all being told different ways to deal with this . I think we need a figurehead to get behind a white knight with a public presence , one of our ex players , high profile supporters to front our protests and getting all singing from the same songsheet especialy if we get to early bird and we need a mass refusal to renew
  20. This may be a big call but I don’t think Parkinson will last long at Wrexham and I can see them going for danny
  21. A version of the nou camp built asap lamine yamal , Jude Bellingham and mbappe signed in January and £100 season tickets or alternatively just pay bills and have a plan going forward
  22. It’s fantastic he’s signed , one bit of good news amid a summer so awful it defies belief . The general opinion was if he left no takeover was imminent so you’d assume his staying would be a good sign but honestly we don’t know one way or the other . Personally I’ll take the small victory and keep my fingers crossed for a bigger one
  23. Yet another day of vague rumours , positivity , negativity and the usual gobbledygook . Truth is no one knows anything for sure but I’m pretty damn sure chansiri will be gone some day . Wether that be days , weeks , months or years no one knows what state the club will be info’s knows . We have no idea who will buy the club , named aplenty have been linked but apart from the Florida lot no one as actually said they want the club. All we can do is starve him of money continue to protest and hope when he does go we get a competent and hopefully wealthy owner
  24. Don’t personally like oasis , it’s been done before . Biut the uk is the most inovative nation in the world when it comes to music . From the Beatles onwards we can’t be matched
