Grappler   12 #26 Posted November 3, 2010 Indeed, and traditionally Hallam is the "Wednesday" team, and Club the "United" team. In fact, I remember the Hallam FC site having "Hi Ho Silver Lining" as its theme tune on the front page.  Not having a dig here mate, but with Sheffield FC and Hallam FC being the first two clubs in the world, shouldn't that be that Wednesday are the "Hallam", not the other way round?  To be honest they have their own identity, Hallam FC, and as I say, a real ale boozer opposite, good enough!

Your choices are to watch some other team, or watch nobody, but you cannot continue to be a Wednesday fan.  Not in the slightest. I can still be a Beatles fan, despite the band not existing. Wednesday fans can continue to be Wednesday fans, even if the club were not be extant. It really isn't difficult. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Hallam are more favoured by Wednesday, but Club are more favoured by United .... sorry if I didn't make that clearer  If you mean the Coach and Horses, that's outside Sheffield FC in Dronfield!

Owl84 Â Â 10 #29 Posted November 4, 2010 Not a chance think id glory hunt and watch Man Utd but actually go and watch them not just support them. Would take a while to get over it though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
scoobydotcom   10 #30 Posted November 4, 2010 I wonder if we'd see a fc united of manchester / afc wimbledon team emerge  "The Wednesday" it should be called Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I guess there is not as much rivalry with SFC and HFC as I (and many others) would go and support both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Earwiggo   10 #33 Posted November 4, 2010 No, but the unfortunate thing would be, is that any future kids interested in football, would HAVE to be United fans. How frightening is that?  They have my fullest sympathy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
