22-23 season non-Wednesday football tonight/ when Sky dictates


Recommended Posts

The fact in the last 2 games Ipswich have not just won, but won convincingly away from home v teams in the top 7, means you have to give them credit. Well the fans are still ***** but what grinds my shit is that they are the type of side I frankly wished Wednesday had evolved to. 

A young side playing decent attractive attacking football, with a up coming intelligent manager, sensibly run off the field as well. Which means they have a fairly decent chance of taking that base into the Championship.

I hate the short termism that envelopes everything to do with our set up. No real plan off it, no identity off it. Irrespective of where we end up another summer of mass recruitment beckons.

We are unlucky that this season 3 other sides including Barnsley in that have been exceptional, but actually the failure is endemic.

Failure at the top of the Club leads to failure on the pitch

Moore will go for his strongest side this week v Shrewsbury. Whilst we are still in with a theoretical chance he has to. 

The talk of resting players, well there is a week between every subsequent game so its not really needed. And I think in terms of our favourite word momentum it can be counter productive and indeed back fire

We all can guess what happens anyway, we lose to Derby then get knocked out by them in the play offs

We knock Derby out then get beat by Peterborough anyway 

The Wednesday way .......

Smith is still massively in the red zone which is why he's blowing out of his arse and running in treacle after 20 minutes. Been told he'd need at least 10 days of complete rest if he's to be effective over 90 minutes. Also been told that Bannan isn't far behind. So we either give them the rest they need in order to get the best out of them or we spend a shed load on an oxygen tank or we run them into the ground in the hope they last out.

If this is the case leave Smith at home Saturday and go with Gregory and Paterson.   

If a dead rubber for us leave Smith and Bannan out v Derby.

Aside from some nice football, it's been a dreadful spectacle from a 'falling over' point of view.

KDB, Grealish, Haaland and Walker couldn't wait to go down on feeling the slightest brush. Xhaka and PartB among the Arsenal skirts.

Stay up. Stay strong. Play on.

Even more pathetic is the hypocrisy of the home fans (haven't heard too much from the away end until the last few minutes). The ref gets conned and gives Arsenal a free kick. City fans boo and burst into a chorus of "you're not fit to referee", whilst deliberately failing to call out their own side's cheating.

Football's fucked. Well and truly fucked.

You're all nuts. I can only imagine the reaction on here is Plymouth and/or Ipswich were to lose and we're fucking a out with carrymycarkeys jr up front...and rightly so

Whilst there is a theoretical chance then you have to play the strongest available team.

Tbh our players seem to get injured as much on the training pitch as in games 

I don't know what the coaching theory is on the capability of players at the end of a season taking two weeks off and can they then go again. Often seen with England in tournaments that not being a good thing

We’ve had more than 2 weeks off

I know what you mean, there is a lot of fannying about in the Prem. 

But, ‘nice’ to see VAR not working as it should again. As much as I detest Arsenal they should have had a pen off Haaland. 
He had his arms by his side to block a shot, but leaned into it, deliberately and used his upper arm.

It was dismissed by the officials, all of them, and the commentators never even considered it as a pen.

Or have the rules changed meaning ‘arm ball’ is ok?

Anyway I empathise with any of you folk who have to work in Sheffield and have to restrain yourself from punching fans of the other entity in the city 

 

Begrudgingly congratulated my Boss this morning, albeit at the same time saying it was a sh*t league.  He's a decent sort though so was not gloating.

Luckily really don't need to come across many of the great unwashed on a daily basis.

I’m working with/supporting a school at the moment and have to visit there on Friday. The Headteacher, Chair of Governors and the CEO of the multi-academy trust which is also supporting the school are all pigs. What are the chances of that, given the school is in Barnsley! 

They know I’m a Wednesday supporter - not looking forward to seeing them at all, especially as I have to remain professional and can’t say to them what I want to! 😂

Pity you aren't working for OFSTED - kill a few of the fuckers off with your report

Good to see Leeds scum getting hammered again 

It certainly is. Unfortunately I think they may get out of it simply because Everton and Forest are just as bad and are behind and have awful fixtures coming up. Mind u City next for Leeds, there saving grace may be Spurs last game I think as I reckon we'd beat them at moment

Are Southampton running out of money?

Spent the day at the in-laws in Bingley and passed their team bus going up the M1 this morning and also on the way back this evening. 

Don't care how comfy the coach is, 12 hours on a coach with a football game in between can't be good.

Probably scared of offending the green nutters. You're not allowed to fly anywhere these days apparently 🥵

Leicester v Everton is a bloody great game for the neutral.

Vardy scored a lovely goal; rounding the keeper… and. 

Calvert Pig has just missed from a yard too. 
 

Cracking game. I just hope those jammy scousers don't fluke there way out of this. Got bad feeling they might. Be brilliant if them and Leeds went.

Unlikely. Unfortunately

Seamus Coleman stretchered off with his leg in a brace, hasn’t he had a horrible injury already in the last few years or am I thinking of someone else?

He got a double leg break maybe 5 or 6 years ago, while playing for Republic of Ireland.

Pretty sure the other chap involved in the challenge came off the bench at Hillsborough once. May have been with Swansea or Villa. Full back. Taylor?
