Wrexham at home tonight. I'm finding it hard to be positive, especially after the Birmingham game.

Wrexham at home tonight. I'm finding it hard to be positive, especially after the Birmingham game.

dont worry youve got us on 26th

 

[F1Brits_90]

We've caught two teams in form while we have a massive injury list and a first team who are absolutely knackered.

the stoke game did shock me

 

[cider_and_toast]

Everything they did went in and the chances we had we didn't take.

A fair result for Stoke but the way we play, a number of fans have been saying that we'd get taken apart like that by at least one team this season.

Embarrassing but nothing to worry about.

Infantino is a disaster. I never thought it was possible to be worse, and I almost find myself longing for the days of Sepp Blatter. He’s just as corrupt, but now it’s done in plain sight. Football has become a secondary factor, with the 48-team World Cup being ridiculous, 32 was perfect, and now there’s talk of 64 in 2030.

The 2030 World Cup is shaping up to be a mess, prioritizing money, paving the way for Saudi Arabia to bid for 2034 over football, after Australia was seemingly pressured out of competing. so we have Argentina Paraguay Uruguay, Morocco Portugal Spain all hosting games

Wow, a FIFA Peace Prize. How exciting.

I wonder who the first recipient will be?

Joey Barton?

delighted & relieved at the derby win as i knew that couldve been a banana skin, espically with some of recent performances ive seen. we have been so jekyll & hyde recently in games often the same game. great 1 half dreadful the next

credit goes to players who turned up today. as losing to "worst Wednesday team in there history" wouldve haunted us for decades

thats sheffield derby sorted. now the CTA v Portsmouth & FB

Sheffield Wednesday receive extraordinary 'enquiry' from owners of rivals Sheffield Utd about potential merger of two clubs

Sheffield Wednesday is currently up for sale after being put into administration last month, with an asking price in excess of £30m; the club received email enquiry claiming to be from owners of Sheffield United, COH Sports; the EFL and football regulator would not allow a merger

This would be fun. Maybe the two Liverpool and Manchester teams could think about doing the same. Even better, merge the two Glasgow clubs.

nice turn out for Portsmouth. as thats a very long journey. although not sure about the luminous hi vis away shirt

yeah this i doubt would ever happen. but this is our owners. would be hypothetically worrying for our rivals. as its so much a merger as eliminating our rivals.

because united have the better players & facilities

 

[F1Brits_90]

how stupid do you have to be. to handball it, like luis suarez when your wearing a luminous hi vis away shirt

I don't mind Pompey losing. I do object that arse, Patrick Bamford, scoring.

 

[cider_and_toast]

Back in 1982 when Bristol City survived bankruptcy by the skin of our teeth our wonderful neighbours attempted to by our stadium from under us.

An act that helped turn what was before that a relatively healthy rivalry into one of the most bitter in the country.

If Sheffield Utd's owners have gone in with a bid for Wednesday then I'd say that's disgusting and totally classless.

 

[F1Brits_90]

i think that was probably best performance of the season. not seen us this dominant for the full 90 for long while. every player was decent & probably the best ive seen from cannon

Bamford, he looks really good addition for the last 2 games ive seen. but i can see why you might not like him FB even the kop were singing "bamford is a " & he was loving it

If Sheffield Utd's owners have gone in with a bid for Wednesday then I'd say that's disgusting and totally classless.

i agree, our owners couldn't have had worst start to ownership

• signed a 10m striker, who taken 11 months to start to show promise
• sacked arguably the greatest manager in the club history.
• hired a the worst manager in the club history, as his successor
• bought quite alot of flops in august transfer window. that will be shipped out in January
• had to eat humble pie to bring wilder back, to save us from us a humiliating relegation
• now tried to embarrassingly eliminate the opposition & make sheffield a 1 club city

thankfully the EFL stepped in. because i dont want Wednesday to go bust, because i love beating them. its better than promotion. winning that "cup final"
