The pre match press from our gaffer is underway

The officials

Ref: SAM ALLISON
Assistants: Samuel Ogles and Ravel Cheosiaua
Fourth Official : Alan Young

This season so far. Mr Allison has reffed 19 games, and dished out 59 yellow cards and 4 red.

It looks like it’s the first time he’s taken charge of a game involving us.

DM comments.

Mark McGuinness is back at Cardiff. It's a blow because of how well he did here.

"I can't give him enough praise and Cardiff too for allowing him to come here and help the team.

Hopefully he goes back and gets some Championship football because he's certainly ready for it."

"We're not putting any pressure on Baz's recovery, we're just letting him and the medical team focus on their work. But he's coming along well."

"Lee Gregory is back and in the squad tomorrow and we're really pleased to have him back."
"We've had a good week's training and have been getting back to business as usual after the last game, and we're looking forward to the game tomorrow."

"We have to keep our feet on the ground, keep focused and make sure we're ready for the battle tomorrow."

I have been sent your tickets for the Wycombe game by mistake. If you are reading this or know him please get in touch. Cheers.

Feeling good about this game, hope we can keep our run going. Quite confident in Famewo, lad looked really good before his injury. Mcguinness a massive loss though, still, one man doth not maketh a team. 

Beating these comes with the extra bonus of sticking it up Ainsworth. What does he think he looks like, silly owd twat. 3-1 us. 

[Chelters]

I have to be honest, I have a bad feeling about this one. Hope I’m wrong and maybe I’m getting too worried about the defence but I’d snap your hand off for a 0-0.

[HoylandOwl]

Naturally a win today is what we all want, and if we do, I’d love it to be horribly shithouse and us to drag it out and cheese them right off.

Otherwise, I’d take a draw. It might seem overly negative, but it wouldn’t be a bad result IMO. It means we don’t lose momentum, and at a place which isn’t the easiest to get something, would show there are some bo**coke in this team without McGuinness in it. 

[HoylandOwl]

One thing DM said yesterday…

“Michael Ihiekwe is fine and doing really well with his progress. He's with the medical team but his progress is going well in terms of getting back to full fitness."

Hopefully we don’t have to wait long!

Found this this morning at the garden shed

Hopefully it isn't an omen

 

[HoylandOwl]

Good job we’re away today, I’d say.

 

[Beaconowl]

With Plymouth playing at Ipswich, today is a golden opportunity to make ground on either of them. 
we must win!

Weather relenting a bit thankfully - was grim first thing

FFS delete that before the Daily Mail find out 

[HoylandOwl]

Just seen this tweet about today’s ref from earlier this season.

[HoylandOwl]

I don’t mind that side so much.

Famewo has been back a few weeks now. I suppose he’s in ahead of Johnson because of Wycombe’s hustle and bustle nature.

Hunt did well when he came on recently. Palmer at right centre back hasn’t let us down.

 

[HoylandOwl]

No sign of Mark McGuinness in Cardiff’s squad.

[Andyben]

What's the line up @HoylandOwl

Johnson dropped not a worry?

Up got Div3 player of the month isn't he?

Palmer Iorfa Famewo James Johnson is stronger, sugar tits 

[Kiwi Owl]

Cracking strike Vaulks!!!!

[HoylandOwl]

WWOW WOW WOW

 

[Skamp]

[Kiwi Owl]

Unlucky there Paterson

[owl4ever1867]

That should be 2.

[Kiwi Owl]

That should be a booking there for McCleary

Such a blatent dive that was

[owl4ever1867]

Don't need that.

Byers off injured

Can see why Barker tweeted that from his performance so far

Very quick to penalise Smith every time he's competing for the ball with a defender wrapped round him

[HoylandOwl]

A very good away performance in that first half, great goal, and some fantastic defensive play which all but nullified them. Liking Famewo, comfortable on the ball. Gutted re Byers going off, but it didn't look too bad. So here's hoping!

[Owling_Wolf]

Great goal but ffs!  Byers stretchered off: of all the ones to lose!  Punching the ground and throwing his shinpads as far as he could.   

😪

[HarrySpeakup]

If we win any result at Ipswich is great for us 

[Skamp]

Ipswich 1 up

 

As it stands

 

 

[wollowl]

1-1 ipswich

[Beaconowl]

Plymouth seem to always manage to get a late goal

I swear we are jinxed as a football club when it comes to injuries.

You were saying ???

[Kiwi Owl]

About time they pick up a yellow card!

James will be a loss for us

[Kiwi Owl]

That is a fantastic away win!!!!!!!!!!

Probably the best defensive display we've put in this season. 

Edited January 14, 2023 by Kiwi Owl

[owl4ever1867]

Absolutely outstanding today, from Dawson to Gregory, absolute masterclass defensively today, huge 3 points at a god awful ground.

Hats off to DM, the coaching staff & the boys, bloody buzzing.

[owl4ever1867]

I fear for James, that looked nasty tbf, hopefully Byers isn't too bad either.

[Wollongong Owl]

Great win but for FFS  hope we've brought enough pairs of crutches.

[Beaconowl]

One of the wins of the season so far

well done Wednesday 

[owl4ever1867]

As we stand tonight...

[TommyCraig]

Great performance from the lads today. Famewo looked class, Iorfa getting his mojo back. Injuries take the shine off somewhat but that title is in our hands now. Paterson was immense. 

[owl4ever1867]

I've had my digs at Paterson but I'll hold my hand up & say these last few games that he's started he's undropable tbh, I'm hoping he doesn't go to Scotland, he would be a far bigger miss than I & many other Wednesday fans will admit to.

Only people who don't know football would slate Paterson.
