No, but it's a reply from the forum's very own 'bore draw'

 

Get some new material glass eye!

That's another screamer from someone whose team specializes in bore draws . Mind you paying only 42 quid to be entertained is a bargain as long as you go home happy and you have enjoyed the match .  OOPS .

So much for that Save our Owls campaign by the Star, they got relegated anyway.Was the manager then Len Ashurst or Steve Burtenshaw ? Also, did people have to send money to support that silly Star effort?

Wednesday didn't get relegated. The campaign (the season escapes me) was run when Wednesday were threatened with relegation to the old Fourth Division. They avoided it.

 

In 1981 the Blades found themselves in exactly the same position. The Star didn't carry out a campaign. The Blades were relegated.

So it was the Star to blame. Not Martin Peters/Don Givens/John Matthews after all.  🙂

I'm not saying the Star was to blame. (Although on this forum they do take the stick for many things).

 

I was politely (hopefully) correcting another poster about Wednesday not  being relegated in the season where the Star ran its campaign. 

 

In addition the Star chose not to run a campaign when the Blades found themselves in a similar predicament.

Who's paying 42 quid?

Correct. Yes a 2-1 win on last day at home to Southend United (who did get relegated). Anyone know why that game was played on aThursday night ?
