holmesfield_owl Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 This is it folks, not many if any second chances left. I'm going for a 2-1 away win at a tasty 10/1. Time for players, management team to stand as one with the fans and deliver, I believe we will. Come on you blue and white wizards!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laceups Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 I bloody hope you’re right. This is deffo last chance saloon and even then it’s going to be a huge ask with West Brom and Sunderland to come. The fans have and will do their bit, down to the team to return the favour. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were everywhere I was a bit too young for that game but the older Wednesday lads often reminisce about it. As you’ve said, Wednesday were everywhere. 12,000 of us out of a crowd of 26,000 - must have been incredible. Weren’t we losing at halftime as well, then came back to win it in the second half. I’d give anything for a similar result on Sunday! Although in saying that I’d prefer a much more comfortable scoreline in our favour, just to avoid more mental torture! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hirstys 12th Pint Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Daughters first away game so looking forward to this. If you had said to me 3 years ago that Poppy would have a season ticket and be mad on Wednesday I would have thought you had rocks in your head. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were everywhere I was at Ewood Park that night, 79-80 promotion season. I'm sure allocation of tickets was 9,000 though they were some Wednesday fans in home areas. We was trailing 1-0 at half time if I remember right then Ian Mellor and Kevin Ticker Taylor scored for us. Promotion confirmed following Saturday at Exeter when we lost 1-0 but Chesterfield lost 2-0 at Millwall meaning we was up barring a 12 goal swing in last game of season against Carlisle which we drew 0-0. Looking forward to Sunday though praying some of results go for us on Saturday. I'm going with Rotherham Owls, 2 coaches going from Bramley, (don't let toy town fans know, nowt lower) 😂 plus another 3rd bus from Wickersley picking up at Hellaby, Thurcroft and Dinnington areas.

Alan Finney Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 God, you all got me feeling old now, I was at this one, FA Cup 1966, watch Fantham glide past the defender and David Ford scoring twice. Yes, a 1-2 win could be on the cards. They'd all refuse to play on that surface these days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Finney Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Well it looked a lost cause at various points throughout the season, but here we are with a great chance. What better motivation could the players want, 7000 supporters and a win to drag our backsides out of the bottom 3. Just put a shift in lads and get us them 3 points please. C'mon Wednesday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheExile Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Away games have been difficult for most of the season. But one thing that will help us in the context of who’s available must be our chance to counter attack with musaba and Gassama who were not given much time on the pitch v Stoke.
