Rangers head coach Danny Röhl after Kilmarnock win: "Today we were clinical, we took our chances unlike Wednesday. This is a good step” (BBC Sport Website) Freudian slip?90 points
-
That is my plea. I don't care how painful or how much of a ******** we're taking come final whistle on Sunday. Each and everyone of us needs to stay to the end and thank the boys on the pitch. Never have I ever gone into a derby expecting to lose. Neve have I gone into one with my team on minus points. Never have I gone into one having not seen my team win at home in months. I don't give a flying Warnock. Those lads wearing the blue and white regardless of score, and I believe we can turn those ******** over, will deserve just like at Oxford and Norwich a standing ovation coming onto and more importantly leaving it. Do not let the emotions of the day detract from what each and every one of those players, coaching team, medical,school and whoever else has played a part in getting this fixture to be played this season have done. We owe them. WAWAW90 points

I’ve been having a bit of trouble with my tv and couldn’t get some of the channels despite trying all the resets. So, asked a guy I know that knows a bit about televisions if he would pop round this morning. He sorted the problem out and fitted a new receiver and the picture is now brilliant. However, when it came to ask him how much I owed him he said nothing but put the money to Sheffield Wednesday to help pay the wages. Despite telling him that they were now covered until the end of Jan his reply was really heartwarming - he said he had always liked Barry Bannan who played for a short time with Bolton Wanderers and after seeing his wonder goal last week he said he thought Barry was still one of the great players outside the Premiership that he really enjoyed watching and epitomizes what he likes in a good footballer. i thought that was great coming from a very staunch Bolton supporter so when I come to the Derby game I’m going to donate £50 to the club as instructed by Phil my tv repair man. A Great Gesture from a Wanderers fan.87 points

It almost guarantees us at least another season in league one (at best) and missing out on all the TV money from the Championship. Plus our other creditors also get screwed. It's a no from me.78 points

To whowever on the Kop who threw the objects at the United players on Sunday ! I understand the FA have now launched an investigation which could result in a £100k fine. Thats all the money the Trust donated and all the money we raised on Owlstalk and more, so in one stupid act you've potettentially jepodised staff wages and important funds to continue running the club during administration. Even if the fine doesn't come through until after we've got new owners, imagine that conversation... 'welcome to the massive, heres a £100k fine you need to pay to the FA'. Personally, if the culprit is known they need to be named and pay the fine themselves, or at least payback eveyone who contributed to the collections who wants to claim it back from them.

Supported Wednesday 44yrs, many of those years and still am a season ticket holder. I simply can't forgive the decision to give McNeil that spot kick yesterday. Despite all the sorryful experiences lately supporting the Owls, we the fans who are doing everything possible to help the clubs situation absolutely deserved a professional attitude to that penalty. Most of the clubs plight is out of anyone's hands but that was our own, ridiculous, sentiment based shot in the foot. We deserved for once , especially after the inept " performance " against the pigs, to have just a chance of celebrating a potential win. You could tell a mile off which side McNeil was going to shoot , we even did the same for Ugbo and both those sentimental decisions cost us. We pay our money and turn up to see us give us the best chance of winning. Despite being happy at the performance and that Cadamattri and McNeil were chosen ahead of Ugbo. I feel that penalty fiasco might just make me feel like not devoting any more of my time this season. In Pederson's post match interview, to rub salt in the wound, he said the decision to allow McNeil to take the pen was not based on his hatrick potential!! An admission and apology is necessary asap77 points

As per title, I wouldn’t mind starting next season on -15 points. For me, it’s not about short term it’s about the long game. If Chansiri doesn’t get a penny (or as little as possible) and the prospective owners come in with a proper business plan, I’d happily take the points deduction. I’d rather see real investment in the academy, the stadium, and the team for the season after. Proper recruitment, a real rebuild, and a matchday experience we can all be proud of, those are the things that matter long term. Yeah, the points deduction would hurt at first, but if it means the club is set up to succeed properly, I’d take it in a heartbeat. What's people thoughts on a potential -15 to hit Channers where it really hurts?60 points

You should beat us easily on Sunday. You’ve got a multi million pound squad, ours is patched together and threadbare. You should gain absolutely no sense of achievement by beating us. Should you fail to win, it will potentially be the most embarrassing Sheffield Derby result you’ve ever had. You’ve spent your millions. Your parachute payments are running out. You tried to blame your abject start to the season on Selles, brought Wilder in as a final roll of the dice hoping it would change things, but amusingly ‘the messiah’s’ return hasn’t had the desired effect. All we hear from the fans and Wilder is the ‘January transfer window can’t come quick enough’ again to try and place all the blame at Selles door due to poor recruitment. How you need ‘a number 9’ despite you having to watch Moore score for fun for Wrexham. Bet you wish you’d not made him the scapegoat for another bottle job and tactically lacking performance from the players and manager in the play off final. You’re only a place above us despite us being at our lowest ebb in our history. We can sense your fear. That joy of us almost going out of business has been replaced by fear that new owners are going to see the potential of this older, more successful club, come in, invest, and truly reawaken this sleeping giant. They will hopefully reap the rewards of that investment and take us forward. Potentially leaving you in our midst. That’s what’s worrying you. We know that, you know that. Should you beat us on Sunday-and at the other Steel City Derby later in the season-the gloating will be the most intense it’s ever been, because it’ll be fuelled by that fear. You’ll want one last dig before the tide potentially turns. Well you’re welcome to it, because even in administration there is genuinely no way I’d swap our position for yours. I’m sure we’ll get relegated this year but we will hopefully get that investment, rebuild and come back stronger and enjoy watching the tide of success turn once again in the city. We’ll see you on Sunday, try and behave yourselves, and remember the pressure is all on you. But should you beat us, the victory will be as hollow as your trophy room.60 points

Big Sam. If he gets the club he's ready to have Big Sam as manager. He's just returned from discussions with him about the position at Mike Ashley's holiday home in Portugal. It will happen immediately if Ashley is successful in his attempt to purchase the club which he believes will happen by 20th December. You read it here first.57 points

Harry a lifelong Wednesday fan home and away sadly passed away this morning at the age of 26. A gentle giant who would do anything for anybody. we are trying to organise a one minute applause on the 26th minute at the Derby game. If anyone has any influence on getting him up on the screen that would be amazing. He will be missed sorely. Love you Big H. Thanks56 points

This is probably it. Points deductions, embargoes, being described as “crisis club Sheffield Wednesday” for months. In 158 years, this is arguably the worst it’s ever been. However… Less than a month ago, we — as a fanbase — removed the cancer that put our club in this mess. Getting our club back is the biggest result we could achieve this season or any other season. We’re days/weeks away from a new dawn under new ownership, with several bids on the table. We know some of the interested parties are serious, wealthy people. One of the administrators is a Wednesday fan. We couldn’t be in better hands right now. Today is crap and it’ll sting for a bit, but things are going to get better very soon.

Not to be rude but this sort of stuff has been done to death , generally couldn’t care less Anymore about an ex player or manager. lets talk about current players / managers all the best to gassama and Röhl …54 points

...where we are, the quality of players we have and the effort put in. But I'm absolutely fed up of seeing us play the ball around at the back between non-footballing defenders, only to see them play the ball into a non-footballing midfielder who is facing his own goal with an opposition player up his arse. We have to be realistic (and this is down to the manager) about the style of football we are capable of playing. We simply are not good enough to play the style we're trying to play. Only Bannan is anywhere near capable of taking the ball facing his own goal. We have willing runners in Cads, Lowe and Inglesson. Get the ball into the channels, turn their defenders and let's win throws and corners. The number of times we gave them the ball in midfield today was ridiculous. 90% of the time through trying to play football that we simply can't play. New game plan. Is Barry available? Yes - give him the ball. No - launch the ***** thing. When Megson first got the job and he turned it round, he was asked what had changed. He said "I noticed that we give the ball away a lot. So I told them to give it away in their half rather than ours." Doesn't have to be rocket science.54 points

Sentimentality sentimentality / ˌsɛntɪmɛnˈtælɪtɪ / noun the state, quality, or an instance of being sentimental an act, statement, etc, that is sentimental The club must stop all the sentimentality bulls**t, it's inbred into the fanbase. A successful club is run efficiently and ruthlessly. Too many players have been given an easy ride because they "try hard" or are "loved for their effort". We need players who are skillful and intelligent and used to winning. If they don't fit the bill, ship them out. The same is necessary for the management staff. We have had to endure second rate players for 25 years, some have never witnessed a good player. It's time to change. WAWAW.53 points

The state of play at the moment; - Chansiri is gone - There are multiple bidders already over the threshold to avoid a points deduction next season - The fee restriction looks like being lifted next month Don’t care what anyone says, can even throw in the United result for my money. Every single one of us would have snapped your hand off for that to be the case on Dec 1st back in October.49 points

The hate Adam Reach gets from our fans continues to baffle me… People complain he shirked a few tackles and at times struggled defensively playing LEFT BACK when he for his entire career was a LEFT WINGER… In reality he was our best attacking player by a mile in 2018 (had back to back 15 G/A seasons), won POTS and rightly so, scored some of the best goals I have ever seen and did not throw team/manager under the bus once, refuse to play or force a move. All that before he was forced to play a position he didn’t suit, under a string of poor managers, with no support at all down the left side… Truly bizarre, fans desperate to scapegoat somebody as our inevitable sinking ship into League One set sail!48 points

It's the FA Cup final with an amazing match between Sheffield Wednesday vs Sheffield United (that's not the punchline). Tickets sold out in five minutes, the whole city is heading to Wembley. A man notices at half time that the fella in front has had an empty seat next to him the whole match, this is baffling considering how important this game is. So he asks him: "Ey mate, how come there's nobody sitting next to you?" He replies "That was my wife's seat, we've been going the game together for 15 years now, but she sadly passed away recently" "Oh I'm sorry for bringing it up, terrible news, but do you not have any friends or family you could have gave the spare ticket to?" "Well yeah, but they're all at her funeral"46 points

I write this a someone who has scarcely been in the last 25 years. My last game of an extremely long attendence streak was away at Derby, the year we got relegated from the Premier League in 2000. I was still a kid, addicted to Wednesday, attended 100+ straight home games without any of my family bothered about football. I remember us starting the Championship later that year and thinking we'd walk it. I was in Melbourne, Australia on dial-up internet at approx 2am most weekends expecting to thump everyone we came up against. Here we still are. With all that has gone on at Wednesday this Century before Chansiri, under Chansiri and then externally with things like government turbulence, COVID and the divisive wars fought in Palestine and Ukraine, I struggle to see why now we are rid of Chansiri, people aren't much, much happier at the opportunity??? Why are people still moaning about the EFL rules, written not by them but by the owners of football league clubs. Why are they lambasting Pedersen and before him Danny Röhl, when they had the weakest squad and the weakest backing respectively. Why are they taking it personally when we get thumped by a team with a squad worth 10 times ours, just because they are a local arch enemy? Why are they writing off young squad players when everything else to succeed has been missing? Yes, we may get some token lowest points total ever in the football league*, yes we are going back to league 1, yes there is still an outside chance noone will buy us but, after one false dawn we may be on the cusp of a clean slate and the potential for somethimg great and to be great again. We are better than all that has happened. Just breathe and be patient, I know it's been one hell of a slog but WAWAW and the next 10 years might just be the best of your lives.46 points

We got rid of he who shall not be named. We’ve won the biggest battle of the whole season / last 10 years. The defeats so far, the league table, the future points deductions, all difficult to see, but it’s a trade off for getting him gone that we’d all have taken. We were only ever on the road to further chaos and destruction with you know who. Between Dec and Jan further help is on it’s way, which isn’t that long to go We’re still existing, we’re still going, but without the worst owner in our (and possibly EFL) history Stick together46 points

He will be top goalscorer in L1 next season for us - I'll tell you now. Him and Cadamartiri will be ruthless next season for us. We don't have much to celebrate right now but I think these two will be bright lights next season, so give them as much playing time this season as possible.45 points

While we have been the ultimate clown show under Chansiri, we have been a general clown show for a lot longer. The evidence was always there, SAF advising Moyes not to come here, the Houllier incident and several others come to mind, Atkinsons second coming, saving us from certain relegation only to be sacked seemingly out of spite for how he left the first time. Chansiri just took the clownishness to a whole new level, I just hope for once, to have rational ownership of the club with its best interests at heart and a vision for what it could be, I dont care if they have billions or not, just some common sense and a plan will do for now!44 points
