From the SW fans forum on 13:44 - Sep 18 with 2445 views | Metal_Hacker | Welll living up here in Sheffield it’s been completely different. Customer and mates of mine up here who are Weds fans have suggested nothing other than the officials did us a favour. I suggested they visit the nearest Spec Savers. In fairness the ref was pony yesterday Problem with Weds fans as a whole , is that they seem to think they have a divine right to be promoted and are too big for League One. Hearing he slaver from them first hand this morning at football was painful Onwards and upwards | |

How do they feel about fans intimidating the officials trying to influence the game's outcome? I'm sure they have a fair-minded view on that. | |

From the SW fans forum on 14:01 - Sep 18 by jeera | Too much time spent alone with their skinny dogs stuffing themselves with batter-based puddings, that's the problem. |
Haha slightly harsh and stereotypical view but I get your point My Mrs is from Rotherham and neither does she have a skinny dog or eat battered puddings but she is very single minded and blinkered at times Think it’s a Yorkshire trait - salt of the earth really (for the most ) Passionate bunch of fans but their behaviour yesterday was as below poor We live on the Blades side of the city which has a very different customer base | |

"My Mrs is from Rotherham and neither does she have a skinny dog or eat battered puddings but she is very single minded and blinkered at times". Please say she at least has a flat cap. Checked preferably! | |

Reading their forum, the majority seem to think he was poor for both sides. | |

I lived in Sheffield for four years and am still close friends with some Wednesday fans. The delusions of grandeur is on another level with that club, genuinely think a lot of them feel they should be a top half premier league side. | |

The set-up is all there for them to do that, in fairness. Just a shame for them that Chansiri turned out to be their Marcus Evans - promotion or bust for two years followed by vegetation. They've struggled to get their act together for a long time though. This is their sixth season playing in the third tier out of the last 19 - over 3 separate spells. [Post edited 18 Sep 2022 15:24]

They've bottled the play-offs I think 3 times in about 6 years now, once in the championship final, could have been very different for Chansiri if they'd beaten Hull that day. The ones I know can't stand him and the comparison with Evans is spot on. They spent huge money about 5 years ago or so. | |

Let’s not pretend we don’t have our fair share of those type supporters too, who believe we are too big for L1. We are where we deserve to be, like Sheffield Wednesday. The history and prestige counts for nothing as both clubs have been poorly run in recent times and here we are. | |

I don’t see your point - I’m far from blind of some of our fan’s viewpoint but that isn’t the topic right now Separate thread needed I’d suggest Simply trying to offer a first hand conversation and feeling from the locals up here | |

nowt wrong with a bit of delusion, 20 odd k don't keep tipping up without being just a little deluded...Some of your mob will be exactly the same..or you wouldn't get those gates. As A wednesday fan, yea..i'm a little deluded, but its the hope that drags you down there , although the delusion helps a little. If you take your blue tinted specs off, and lose the delusion, the actual grim reality of paying the highest ticket prices in the league, actually paying more than your neighbours in the prem playing Liverpool as you tip out against Wycombe...The delusion bloody helps I know very few Wednesday fans who don't accept we deserve to be where we are, sure if you chat to an ipswich fan or any other fan, you defend your club, maybe it comes across as a bit delusional...but lets be honest most every football fan sings "we're by the greatest team..etc"...i mean FFS!...aren't we ALL a little bit that way? As for the..."yea i know a few wednesday fans and they are delusional".load of crap really, a strawman argument to suit something that most bloody fans labour under...whats the point otherwise? | | | |
