Nice one MadOwl , The banter has been great this week and thought it was decent of you to be honest about today ..well done m8

The comment "we were robbed "was tongue in cheek. After trying to decipher the commentary from radio Sheffield ,which was diabolical by the way, I switched to listening to the last 10 Min's commentary on radio Hallam via telephone which was much better. A couple of penalty claims were dismissed by the ref which could have influenced the game, although going on the whole of the game it would have been rough justice on United. Wednesday lost fair and square but they can still hold their heads up high.

Now that the dust has settled and United has grabbed the points and hopefully is on the way to promotion, I sincerely hope that Wednesday manage to stay in the Championship. I'm rooting for them from here on anyway. Good luck guys.

Two lucky breakaways

Why Has This Post Posted Twice??

The blades ought to have be 4 -0 up by half time,that they didnt take their chances made the game more intersting,I do hope the owls can stay up and I look forward to meeting them in the premier where we can take another 6 points.

3 points, the double, that’s great, shame we didn’t get 4 or 5 and put those boxing day memories to bed.

Ok mate apologies,the commentary was a bit eratic,Keith Edwards always banters with the other guy,but the Owls guy took it as an insult,when Edwards made a comment.Good luck for the rest of the season.Tosh

Stay in canada fella.

Stay in canada fella.

I will till next year when i can come back and watch some PREMIERSHIP football :hihi: :hihi: :hihi:

I think Utd are a cert for premiership football have done for a while.
I also think they are a cert to come back down as well maybe get more points than Sunderland.
If it was to happen and we stay in the Champioship which i also think we will then the derby matches would be even and more interesting than this years.
Enjoy your promotion.
All the credit to Utd fans for the minutes silence. superb. It didnt suprise me, when Mel Rees (RIP) was to walk around Wembley before the Semi final, people were worried about the response the Owls fans would give him.
No need to, the applause we gave him will live with me forever, so will the pleasure it gave him.

Well thank god that it's over and we can now concentrate on the job in hand (Wednesday staying up). If we used our heads instead of our hearts we were all aware that if Utd played as they they could and we played as we had been doing then there was only one scenario.

What pains me is that we got Chris Eagles fitter and sharper and able to score for fun at Watford. We managed similar in respect of David Graham as we did a few seasons ago with David Johnson.

Make no mistake about it we are in a dog fight and must come out as top dog. Our strikers can't score for love or money and we have to rely on strikes from midfield and defence. Is it possible for us to call David Graham back to duty, I am not sure of the basis of his loan deal at Huddersfield?

the difference between our league (championship) and league one is quite large.

david graham may have scored 3 in 5 down there, but he is certainly not the answer for wendy. he has shown he can not do anything in this league even whilst with wigan

Ur not bouncing anymore........Ur not bouncing anymore........Ur not bouncing......Ur not bouncing.......Ur not boucing anymore........lol

10-1....It could have been 10-1.......It could have been 10-1........It could have been 10-1.....lol

Thats why your going down........Thats why your going down........Thats why your going down.......Thats why your going down...........

It would have been a good reloan if the Owls could have got Eagles back,did you see the goal he scored against Brighton,real class that lad.I think McClean will come good he had a terrible leg break & good to see him back.

Eagles is the loan player that Man U fans constantly track, the goal that you mentioned will do him no harm. Steve Mclean is an unknown quantity at this level and has yet to show if he can master the step up.

We need circa 17 points to be fairly sure of staying up and to get them we need goals. If David Graham has hit form he could win us two or three games and that could be the short term answer. Mclean is still trying to come up to form and fitness and I fear that we don't have the time to wait for him to do so.

Only time will tell along with the results of the three below and above us but we have to put 5 wins together and three points from the next game would be a good start.

Ferguson wouldnt let him stay as he said it was denting Chris' confidence and therefore stalling his development. He is a class act. Maclean wont be match fit until 3 or 4 games time. We need 6 wins to stay up......

True story.......Graham isnt suited to the Championship by any means.....hope we get a fee for him.

Morning all,

Sheffield Wednesday today signed Russell Hoult on Loan til the end of the season, with the view to a permanent deal afterwards!

If you remember, I brought you this news first last week!

Matt

A questions to the owls fans, how are Leon Best and Yohann Folly doing for you?

I'm a Southampton fan living in Sheffield, but haven't made it down to Hillsborough to check out how they're doing since they came on loan to you.

Should be a good match this w/e though. :)
Luggy will have a point to prove.

they're both injured.

folly in my opinion is no better than rocastle (another headless chicken midfielder who is also injured)

leon best has pace and promise but missed a sitter against crystal palace, but i'd still prefer Barry Corr to partner Maclean

Still got no one in for Saturday, is this just something overheard in the pub? What's your source (and none of this brown/tomato comedy reply ;))

True. have you all read Sturrocks rallying call. It seems he must have heard of some (maybe many) unrest as he's asking for the fans backing and tring to explain some of his decisions. I generally though most owls fans were backing PS.

It appears we are really struggling for players at the meoment and think we're giving Newcastle a run for their money with bad luck. 23 senior players and 12 cant play saturday!!!!!

I think most Owls fans are fully behind Sturrock but it seems like his hands are tied though. He's been bringing in a lot of younger players instead of a couple old heads who are on bigger wages but are badly needed.

Still with all these injuries at least Partridge should a start!!

Still got no one in for Saturday, is this just something overheard in the pub? What's your source (and none of this brown/tomato comedy reply ;))

According to the website there will be no new faces for Saturday. I read the rumour about Wednesday signing Hoult on loan on the BBC football rumour page. It quoted it's source as The Mirror. Read into that what you will.

Doomed springs to mind.

What a very balanced argument valley boy!

There is one thing doomed and it is your opinions.

Curious yet compelling thread! Gotta have my two-penneth! ;) Played for Weds as a junior, til i discovered girls, fags n booze...but still in touch with a few fellas! Richie Humphries told me he'd never come back - purely cos of the way they treated him. A few others have said similar! That said, i still proper love the club and i go 2 almost every match (work permitting) - and that includes reserve games. It's corny, but it's 'swings and roundabouts'! At the end of the day..Weds have been up and Utd have been down and vice versa. Owls - remember Cardiff, UEFA, FA, Carling and the rest...within 3 years we'll be back. Guaranteed!!

Good lad, exactly what we were all thinking (except the blades).

UTO FTB

We WILL be back, football goes in cycles. You only have to take a look at a lot of the teams in the Premiership at the minute to see that they've had their recent history out of the big time. The likes of West Brom, Birmingham, Fulham, Man City, Portsmouth etc all spent considerable time out of the top flight to get back there (hate to say it but that list will include our neighbours next year).

So we can look forward to those days returning, it's just a case of when.

The thread is clearly titled 'Wednesday chat - discuss games/news here' so why the hell do the blunts have to come on here and comment? Jealousy?

No new signings for Saturday however Derby have signed 2. Obviously they realise how serious a position they are in....Dave Allen-wake up.

A questions to the owls fans, how are Leon Best and Yohann Folly doing for you?

Leon Best has the potential to be an awesome player. Folly is like a rabbit infront of headlights at the minute but thats because he's only a kid playing with other kids. Put either of them with someone experienced for a year and they'll be fine.....look how far Woody's come playing alongside Cocko....

Let;s hope for 3 points today which woudl really give us sonme breathing space. I think we'll do well though to come back with a poinnt and let's hope KPS can put 11 players on the pitch with the number of injuroies we've got.

Yet another episode of greesy chip butty numpty childishness on the thread again.

Very true. We cant depend on other results going our way. Other teams above us are now starting to pick up, and some after getting in a few bodies on loan. I hope DA isn't not splashing out because of the Wednesdayite fiasco.

0 points next week against Cardiff, let's hope for 3 point v QPR in a couple weeks. Big struggle on now.

looks like the owls slipped on that chip butty..... 0-3...:gag: the great escape is now on??

This one had been on the cards for weeks, the only real thrashing of the season though. I was shot down in flames when I asked if we could get David Graham back on the basis that he had not scored at this level before. Neither has Steve Mclean (other than one penalty) and he won't be properly on song for a few weeks so surely David Graham would have been an option.

Chairboy is usually top class at the technical points, so wondered if he had any idea of David Graham's loan deal?

i read the green un on saturday and the letter criticising KPS was ridiculous.

The man was honest at the start of the season when he said if we survive it would be a major achievement. Like he said, there are a lot more stronger teams than us in this division. Even KPS didnt know what rotten luck we were going to have with injuries so if we do stay up it will be an even bigger achievement than promotion last season.

I still think we came up a season too early. Lets hope that we can attract a better calibre of player next season if we are in the championship as we will be classed as an 'established' championship side. Forest seem to be going the same way as us. They dropped down to league one, have struggled in thier first season and changed manager recently. I would liek to bet that they will go up next year.

Who does anyone think is the best radio commentator? I'd go for Paul Walker on Radio Sheffield (with John Pearson). For me, Radio Sheffield's commentary team are 1000 times better than the national radio commentaries. Passionate and excitable!

I'd much rather listen to Paul, Seth Bennett and Luke Wileman at the World Cup in Germany this summer rather than the boring Radio Five Live regulars.

I would like to point out that I have absolutely no connection to any of the men, or to Radio Sheffield.

If anyone else thinks that Seth, Paul or Luke would make good World Cup commentators then send an e-mail to charles.runcie@bbc.co.uk. I’m sure all concerned would be appreciative.

Appears that DA is now going to pump some of his own wages into the club to fund loan players. Good man!

Just read that Corr, who was starting to become a decent player, is out for the season. When will this injury jinx end????

Sheffield Wednesday are rumoured to be linked with a Scottish under-21 starlet, the young Midfielder who is said to have scored a bag-full of goals this season is said to be highly sought after by Sturrock, and the manager is due to go into talks with the youngster this week!

Well we will wait and see. Only problem i'd have is the word young. I would never say no to a decent young player but we need some experience in the middle.

Looks like we'll have no one in for the game unless it's a late one. Read that Sturrock has held a meeting with the players to get he injuries out of their minds. Let's hop the rally call will help and if we play well try to pick up a point down in cardiff (which will be difficult)

Well were well and truly in the **** now arnt we. Bit unlucky second half having numerous chances and a nailed on pen which only the ref didnt see.Backs to the walls as they say and if no players are brought in , loan or otherwise then i feel it may be a sad end to the season.Hope not and as ever up the owls

Well the Millwall result had to come sooner or later, we've been riding our luck too much over the past few weeks. I just cannot see where a goal is going to come from, i dunno about anyone else but i hardly get excited anymore when we attack as i know nowts gonna happen. We've failed to score in 18 matches which is the worst in this division.

Anyway for those interested here are the run ins for the bottom 4

SWFC
11-Mar-06 Home Queen's Park Rangers
18-Mar-06 Home Preston North End
25-Mar-06 Away Wolverhampton Wanderers
01-Apr-06 Home Burnley
08-Apr-06 Away Crewe Alexandra
15-Apr-06 Home Norwich City
17-Apr-06 Away Brighton & Hove Albion
22-Apr-06 Home Reading
30-Apr-06 Away Derby County

Millwall
11-Mar-06 Away Ipswich Town
18-Mar-06 Home Leicester City
25-Mar-06 Away Watford
01-Apr-06 Home Brighton & Hove Albion
08-Apr-06 Away Derby County
15-Apr-06 Home Plymouth Argyle
17-Apr-06 Away Southampton
22-Apr-06 Home Burnley
30-Apr-06 Away Crewe Alexandra

Brighton
11-Mar-06 Home Preston North End
18-Mar-06 Away Queen's Park Rangers
25-Mar-06 Home Luton Town
01-Apr-06 Away Millwall
08-Apr-06 Home Southampton
15-Apr-06 Away Ipswich Town
17-Apr-06 Home Sheffield Wednesday
22-Apr-06 Away Wolverhampton Wanderers
30-Apr-06 Home Stoke City

Crewe
11-Mar-06 Home Southampton
18-Mar-06 Away Hull City
25-Mar-06 Home Coventry City
01-Apr-06 Away Queen's Park Rangers
08-Apr-06 Home Sheffield Wednesday
15-Apr-06 Away Crystal Palace
17-Apr-06 Home Cardiff City
22-Apr-06 Away Leeds United
30-Apr-06 Home Millwall

As you can see April is going to be a massive month with 2 six-pointers away to Crewe, Brighton and maybe Derby if they get sucked back in. Millwall have also got to play Crewe and Brighton in that month. Let's hope we get a few more players back from injury sharpish.

Yes things not looking good, players in on loan in my opinion dont really do the job.There hearts not in it and when its time to dig in then there not up for it.Its an old chesnut but we rally need some local lads in our team, in my opinion

Thing is we aren't in a good position to blood any new local players, their confidence would be shattered.

I know it's easy in hindsight but i feel we missed out big time not getting Dennis Wise in if there was a chance. We should have pushed the boat out a bit and gone for him. All season we've been crying out for a strong character in midfield and yet when he is available nothing happens and we go for inexperienced loan players. I'd never knock Sturrock after what he's done for us in his short time here but i do feel his hands are being tied due to the horrendous injuries we've had and the fact this debt has had on the wage structure. He's having to gamble on these cheaper loans hoping for another Joey O'Brien/Kenwyne Jones. Thing is if we don't stay up this season we are never gonna start to eat into that debt and the only way out would be administration and start on -10 points.

I see what you mean about administration but Allen wont have it as he would lose about a million or so quid he put into SWFC. We need to win the next 3 home games and get soemthing from the Crewe/Brighton games.

Very unlucky Saturday and even cardiff Manager on the website agrees Cardiff were lucky. Mclean is back out now and everythinsg against us but let's hope we can pull it off.

maclean is out again?? oh dear

but to be fair, its not like he did anything in the 4 games he played is it?? 1 goal from spot is hardly proflific

Sturrock on football Heaven now (radio Sheffield)

maclean is out again?? oh dear

but to be fair, its not like he did anything in the 4 games he played is it?? 1 goal from spot is hardly proflific

True Robbie, but he needed games and time to get back into the swing of things and i think he woudl have enjoyed the cardiff game as we were on top and creating chances. The other games he had nothing at all to take.

Good News for a change! Maclean hasn't broken his toe as first thought. He will start training again Thursday and he could be fit for Saturday V QPR. Also Sturrock is hopefull of a loan signing in time for the game.

Up The Owls!

Also Sturrock is hopefully of a loan signing in time for the game.

Well, we'll just have to wait and see. Just going on what it says on the club site.

says the same on the back of the Star. Maybe a Rangers or Middlebrough player??? Sturrock thought he had Cameron until Wilkins intervened.

But with the Maclean good news, let's hope we have some more as we are certainly owed tonnes of it.

UP THE BLADES

When I went to the Blades thread for a bit of 'banter' I was told get lost as there was a separate thread for banter that 'even an Owl could find'.
Although I don't know what your Piggy mates were so upset about I merely suggested that United's bubble may have burst and they got all shirty:)

Swfc Swfc Swfc Swfc Swfc Swfc Swfc Swfc

Went to watch a trial match with the youngsters under 18's at Handsworh Sporting club. Think I mentioned about a norwegian called Rocky#11 before. Yes he is very good and very direct player much in the style of Chris Brunt. Also a young lad called Magnus#8 played on right midfield and centre mid. Good for the future.

Rumour mill:

Sheffield Wednesday are keen to sign Liverpool's England Under-21 keeper Scott Carson on loan. (Mirror)

Anyone heard anything?


They have just said on Radio Sheffield that he is one of the loan signings today.

Carson from Liverpool and Danish U21 International Bischoff from Man City has signed.

Carson from Liverpool and Danish U21 International Bischoff from Man City has signed.

So Carson was the one on European duty (at least something good came out of Liverpool's exit) which is a good signing and probably the reason why we didn't get him earlier. As for Bischoff dunno much about him but it says he's a defender which is good as Wood is out but still no midfielder :(

Let's get behind em both on Saturday if they play and give em a chance

I think the Euro check was on Bischoff who played for Denmark Under 21's as Sturrock watched him. he's not played much for Man City due to injuries (will feel at home with us then :D) so is looking to get games under his belt.

Massive game tomorrow which IMO is a must win and i think we will.

Nah gotta be Carson he's played twice in the Champions League before, Sturrock was watching Bischoff in a Man City reserve game against Wigan. Oh and he's 24 anyway that Bischoff so i don't think he can play for the Under 21's anymore (he did play for em though). Yeah noticed his injury record, maybe that's a requirement for joining us!

You're right, tomorrow is a must win coz i can see Millwall getting something out of their match with Ipswich. Can't see Brighton or Crewe getting owt against Preston and Southampton.

bischoff is gonna be a great signing for yourselves. very well done indeed.

although i am very wary about carson, he is an improvement to what you currently have between the sticks

Yeah well no one gained any ground so as you say another match down. Can't believe we didn't get all 3 points from that game, Carson must have been freezing out there coz he had nothing to do for 90% of the match. Bischoff looked a class act though (you were right there Robbie_Lovin) along with Folly, Bullen and the front two. Wouldn't be surprised if Paul Jones gets man of the match for them with some top drawer saves. I'll not bother going on about that excuse for a ref but if he's a Premiership referee (D'Urso) then let Warnock have em!

Oh and you'll need to update your sig canadablade to Leeds 5 points behind with a game in hand and yet to play at the Lane ;)

ive not heard the reports (from todays game), but if he can keep away from injuries he would be an excellent full time signing for this league

Unlucky Wednesday today according to reports. The new signings did well as did the team as a whole. Very encouraging :). Again, bad refereeing and an on form goalkeeper cost us another 2 valuable points but everybody knows when your in this position luck is hard to come by.

Good point for you lot today as all 4 bottom feeders drew, So its another match off the fixture list as you struggle to survive.

Why is it a good point. Bad point IMO. Wednesday outplayed them and came up against an inspired keeper. Even Waddock the QPR manager admitted that they suffered 'wave after wave of attack'. For two games running the opposition keeper has won man of the match and been selected for GK in team of the day. With the way we've played we can beat Preston next week.

because none of the other teams round you won, so its just one less game for them to catch you up

partly understand but on the other side of the coin, it's a bad point as it was a home game and we had the chances to get 3 points.

So it's between the bottom four with Crewe looking as though they don't want to finish in bottom place. PS's 51 points target looks like it can be reduced, but to what 46 maybe?

We could do with a no lose run of say 2 wins and 2 draws and hope that 43 points with four games to go is enough. I can't see Reading pulling any punches but Derby should be home and dry by the last game and might relax, but knowing us we will attempt to make it interesting until the very last minute.

We are in a similar position to last year in that PS can't start talking to players until he knows what division we will be in next season, a little bit like the position that Utd now find themselves in.

Eveything crossed.

If,sorry when, we survive, we have a young team (unlike United's geriatric squad) that will have a had a bit more time to gel, so next season hopefully won't get off to such a dire start.

Just wanna say that you've got yourself a decent Keeper on loan there, Scott Carson is a player who I admire, and he's a decent young Keeper!

Very true. No midfielder in but one or two coming back from injury. Interesting to read that PS belives the one player we've missed more than any is Steve Adams!

Difficult game tomorrow but we need 3 points!!

YES! The tide is turning :D

UP THE OWLS!

Well done to the Owls showing us how to score.

Could it be that we have now turned the corner.

Well i suppose things do even themselves out!

Last week we totally dominated and only came away with a draw, today get battered for 40ish minutes nick a goal then the confidence came flooding back. I thought Burton was man of the match by a mile today. He led the line well, caused their centre backs all sorts of problems and was spraying some great passes around. Him and Tudgay work well together which is great as that means MacLean can get fully fit (if he can get back in!). Was impressed with Gilbert as well today that's his best match at Hillsbro by far, infact the back 3 did very well especially during that first 40 minutes.

Well tough game next week but after that we've got Burnley at home and Crewe away. Win those two matches and we'll be safe.

I have to agree with you about Burton, he was man of the match by a mile.... lets just hope!!

for the first 40 mins today in my opinion we were dire. we were al getting frustrated with the lads and preston were passing through us easily without ever looking like scoring themselves.

the relief was clear to see when the first goal went in but judging by the way we had played in those first 40 mins we were all still expecting a second half collapse. burton (o'briens) goal gave us the breathing space we needed. good quick thinking by marcus on the throw by the way.

IMHO frankie simek was man of the match. he saved us in the first half with one excellent intervention when mikkell missed his kick on the edge of the area. hardly anything got past him all afternoon.

funniest moment of the afternoon???. when our fans starting singing "the blades have f**ked it up, now your gonna believe us....". oh yeah, and when the smarmy bloke in the north stand who had been annoying us all afternoon with his knowledge of football, fell when climbing over the seats!!:hihi:

While we all like a bit of banter, coming onto a wednesday thread just to slag us of isn't right IMHO, canadablade. To have a go at us you've had to

1.) read the wednesday chat thread for anything you can pick up on, despite not having anything to say about the team other than 'we beat them'
2.) reply to it with a bit of **** taking

You don't have to do either, please don't.

Don't go using the argument 'you lot go and do the same on our thread.' I DON'T, I don't even read it. Why should I be subjected to it on here for the actions of a braindead few?

lets keep the rivalry on the appropraite 'who do you support?' or 'Owls vs. Blades' threads, yeah?

Anyway, with that out of the way:

Good win yesterday for Wednesday. It was made even more significant by Millwall, Crewe and Brighton only losing or drawing. Five points of breathing space may not be much but considering the next game, I think we might need it.

Ignore him BrainThrust for a so called 'Blade' 90% of his posts are obsessed with the Owls. Huuuuge chip on that blokes shoulder due to all those years we were the superior Sheffield club (see WERE as i actually know it's our turn to be No 2 for a bit).

Maybe we weren't posting coz nothing happened during the week.

Unitedites can't help but moan on every forum and phone-in every two minutes about how their 2ND PLACED team are doing and feel the need to post about that.

Then again maybe us Wednesdayites have other things to do then post on a forum every day!

I have to agree with canadablade somewhat that your thread seems to dry up when things aren't going too good for Wednesday. Having said that, the team deserves congratulations for the Saturday result. Well done. In the interests of disclosure, I must reveal that I'm a Blades fan but I like to read both threads especially when they don't degenerate into slagging each other off.

Have to say,I think thats slightly unfair.The Wednesday thread is generally speaking quiter than the United thread,that much is true.But theres always a flurry of activity after games on here,win or lose.
And lets face it,if Wednesday fans only ever posted when things went well for us,there would only be about four replies on here this season:hihi:

Agree with you other than the 40 mins, more like 25 in my book but after that it looked like Preston who were fighting for survival. Glad that we have got PS to guide us home, he wont make daft changes just for the sake of it unlike one local manager.

It's also nice when the one with the multitude of knowledge gets hit in the face with a clearance isn't it?

what sort of fee would be west brom looking for ? tbh i can see it been out of our price range

I think we were quoted at £1.1m if the loan was a success,but taking him on loan it would be his wages for just over half a dozen games,so I could not imagine the Owls not being able to afford that.If you are relegated which I don't think will happen,he could be the a good assett to keep you in the Championship.

Don't mind a bit of banter between fans, that's the reason i got the boboskins username in the first place. Masquerading many moons ago on a Blades mailing list in my wasted youth as a big Vas Borborkis fan (hence boboskins coz the Blades fans i knew called him Bob Hoskins) and causing trouble. But you've gotta admit a lot of your posts are more about us than positive/negative posts about your own team.

Can't believe you found out i was stalking yer though, i'll have to get rid of the bookmarks for all those Toronto webcams i've been on! ;)

As for Horsfield we don't need him our front two seem to be starting up a good relationship and unless all he wants is free membership to Napoleons we wouldn't be able to afford him. WBA said he was getting more money at the Blades than he was on there, but they didn't say that it was in Chinese yuan ;)

I do actually post on the Blades chat as well but being here in Toronto as you can see on your webcam sites I honestly cant have an opinion on United only what i hear from family and friends in Sheffield and the Blades chatroom on match days.
Only managed to see us on telly here vs Crewe thats why the banter with you about the pitch and i will be lucky enough to see us against Cardiff :D

But haven't Utd an agreement to buy him?? I dont think Wednesday can afford over £1 million anyway. Interesting to see PS is confident in getting a midfielder in. Although we've picked up we need someone challenging in this position.

I hope if we do stay up that Wednesday may look to keep Bischoff and make a bid. Do you think liverpool will let us keep Carson for free :wink: :D

Tough match saturday, can see us losing by a single goal. Then Burnley at home should be a certain 3 points.

no new players in on loan thought we might have had at least 1 but there you go

the wolves game is going to be a hard one i cant see us getting anything there as its one of the grounds we dont have any luck at

Don't forget Wolves are having problems at home,there suporters are getting on the players backs,they are the draw specialist's,so I think you may get a draw.

Don't forget Wolves are having problems at home,there suporters are getting on the players backs,they are the draw specialist's,so I think you may get a draw.

It's all about confidence, something that we have been lacking until the second half in the Preston game. With the exception of Reading and you lot earlier in the season any team can beat any other. Wolves could turn us over if we go to sleep, if we don't we could get something out of the game.

I still think that Watford are the team for you to watch out for and Palace are my bet for play off final winners. Derby could finish lower than us, they were dreadful when we beat them at our place and they are unable to pull clear of the bottom 5.

You lot must wonder what has happened, your recent form is far worse than ours and we havn't been pulling many trees up. I knew Neil well 40 years ago and think that he is so fucused on automatic promotion that he is letting his heart rule his head, what he should be thinking is that every manager of every team below Utd would rather be in his position than theirs.

Don't forget Wolves are having problems at home,there suporters are getting on the players backs,they are the draw specialist's,so I think you may get a draw.

I think the Wolves supportes are very similar to the Sheffield fans. Even Sturrock has stead that thw Wolves fans can be our 12th man. The longer we can keep them at bay the better.

I reckon Wednesday could get a result against Wolves. I saw the home fixture and although Wednesday played crap I wasn't too impressed with them either, it was just that they took their chances when they came. Now that Wednesday have got some confidence it'll be a different result I'm sure.

Up The Owls!

1-0 up at half time. Carson has pulled off a few class saves and Wednesday are looking good.

COME ON WEDNESDAY!

You beauties. Who could guess the 'current score' 3-1 up. Well done boys and carson for England :clap: :banana:

How many more before we are safe?

How many more before we are safe?

Well Milwall have won, so we need to keep doing the same!!

Great result

well done you super owls didnt think we would win that one:) lets just hope we can keep winning

Millwall play Brighton next week, Wednesday v Burnley. Lets hope Wednesday will take this chance to put some space between them and the bottom three. Would be great if Wednesday could make Carson a permantent signing ;) . He played a blinder today.

Up The Owls!

do you grunters not go to games anymore :D

THATS WHY WERE GOING UP
THATS WHY WERE GOING UP

Great resultwhat a great result today, why cant we play every game like that... come on wedneday lets take it to the last kick of the season.... again..:suspect:

A great win for our lads today and it couldn't have been more important with the other results going as they did. I hope we've found something in Tudgay and Burton, they seem to forming an understanding and are doing well now. Let's hope the team can produce more like the last 3 or 4 games (shouldn't have lost to Cardiff).:thumbsup:

What did I say about Wolves home form,well I predicted a draw,but a 1-3 win was amazing,I hope Hoddle enjoyed it,I do not like the bloke,so a good day for Sheffield all round.

"Great time to play Wednesday" - Hoddle :hihi::hihi::hihi:

Indeed it was and nice of United to batter Southampton to get them dragged into the relegation battle :D

Oh how sweet would that be for Sturrock if Southampton went down!

We are never gonna get Carson as a permanent signing (even though he's 4th choice at Liverpool) but Bischoff on the otherhand is out of contract at the end of the season and would be an excellent signing for us.

Weaver has declined to sign a new contract at Man City, I wonder why?

I have heard different. I'll try and find my source but he's signed to Man City.

According to Man City's offical website Weaver has stated that he will sign a one year contract extension with them. Anyone got a spare couple of million quid for Carson?

from teamtalk.com

City offered the 27-year-old the deal after a successful loan spell at Sheffield Wednesday and a string of impressive outings for the Blues' reserve side.

Now fully fit - and over the knee injury that threatened to curtail his career - Weaver is looking forward to marking 10 years with the club and pushing England number two David James for his jersey.

"This will be my 10th year at City and I will be coming back next pre-season hoping to put in a real challenge to David James," he told the club's official website. "Since he has been at this club this is the longest run I have had being fully fit.

"I still believe I am young enough to have a future here and, as far as I am concerned, I am signing to battle Jamo. People who think I have taken an easy option to sit on the bench for a year are severely mistaken.

"All professional footballers want to play and so do I - for Manchester City. I suppose I could have gone somewhere else and played first-team football, but I genuinely feel I am in good enough shape for the first time to put real pressure on Jamo for the starting role."



...Good Luck to Weaver! Hope he gets his first team chance.

Apparently in the Mirror yesterday he's signed a new 1 year deal

According to Man City's offical website Weaver has stated that he will sign a one year contract extension with them. Anyone got a spare couple of million quid for Carson?

Unfortunately Wednesday, bar some sort of miracle, won't have a cats chance of signing Carson. Kirkland is on his way out of Liverpool by all accounts so they'll be wanting to keep Carson. The Owls will be lucky if they can keep him till the end of the season. Lets hope Liverpools keepers stay fit till then.

Up The Owls!

How come you Owls fans are so quiet ? You earned a valuable point today and the results from the bottom clubs went your way.

You're right it was a valuable point but dissapointing not to take more advantage of other results. Next week will be the decider I reckon.

Doesn't look good with Bischoff. Hope it's better news next week with his scan.

Up The Owls!

Warning For Away Fans! (http://www.swfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/News/0,,10304~810108,00.html)

A poor game but everything went for us, a win and a draw for us would leave Millwall needing 11 points from their remaining games to pip us by one point, but lets get the win at the next game.

See that Bischoff is out of the Crewe game :( Wednesday are hoping it's just a minor problem but if it's not he'll stay with Man City. I suspect that Bischoff will be one of these players who is constantly onthe treatment table which is a shame as he's a good player.

Am I wrong here or are we suffering more injuries in the past 3 years than ever before. I can't recall us ever having as many long term / short term absentees. It can't be because the games harder now, you can't make any physical contact so where do the injuries come from. When Alan Smith was looking after the players did he have some secret remedies?

.

Wednesday are having horrendous injuries in the last few years. I'd be suprised if any other team had more, althugh Newcsatle have had a bad year. PS states it's the worst he's ever known. They need to look into a reason though,, unless it's poor bad luck.

It certainly is a mystery. Coughlan who never missed a game for a couple of seasons came and a few weeks after signing was out although he wasn't out for too long. The long term ones are the worst I've ever known. A gipsy curse maybe :confused:

Bischoff will be out for 2 weeks. Sturrock is hoping to extend the loan till the end of the season as extra cover.

Bischoff will be out for 2 weeks. Sturrock is hoping to extend the loan till the end of the season as extra cover.

Extended. Both Bischoff & Carson are staying until the end of the seasonj which is great news.

Big game tomorrow, probably one of the most important ones of the season now. Draw or defeat for Crewe really means they have gone. They have done well in the last few weeks so it will be tough bt i'm confident we can get 3 points which we need!

Interestinbg to see what PS will do with the defence tomorrow. I expect to go with back 3 and JPM on the right, Hills on the left. We'll wait and see.

Excellent news, especially with Carson. To have him in the team is the answer to Wednesdays prayers.

We will stay up! :thumbsup:

Helloooo is anyone there!! No?:hihi:

Helloooo is anyone there!! No?:hihi:
What and Why ?????:huh: :huh: :huh:

Well Wednesday like to make it exciting don't they? Bad performance apart from Carson who stopped it being a massacre. Referee was terrible but was consistant in his crap decisions for both teams.

Still think they will stay up though.

Up The Owls! :thumbsup:

WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY!!!:rant:

Glad to see KPS criticise the attitude. Not seen the game but saw the goals and listened live on radio. Appeared very poor apart from Carson.

IMO we need 4 points out of the next two games v Norwich & Brighton and we should hopefully be safe by then.

There's a new Wednesday chat thread.
