Surely theres a law against that bit mate ? :)
But yeah...spot on.....I am convinced we are gonna be bending over every week....The Grandkids are convinced some Yank on a white horse is charging in to save us...but as I told 'em the other week
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him

Maybe I shouldn't have...

Night night kids, sweet dreams.

I went to Wednesday on business way back in 2002 I think it was. The club then was a shambles, massive conference room not being used because they could afford to run it, operationally screwed due to investment in all the wrong technology or the right technology but not paying the right people to get any use from it.
Been some terrible ownership and management ever since.
A real shame as it’s a proper club with proper fans but even when and if this chancer goes the rebuilding job makes ours look like a spring clean

Fair enough...might a been a bit over the top :)
BUT
I'm rearing Wednesday fans, and even me grandkids get on me tits wiv the rampant optimism...They need a grounding, and its got to the point where the grounding is immediate....no more bloody barbie dolls and candy coloured futures....f.ook "My little Pony" platitudes and crap...Its dystopian....its a dark future, its like "Nightmare on Elm st..meets that Freddie bloke wiv the axe and mask, and theres no sofa to hide behind....obviously I'll candy coat it a bit...but its time to be a Wednesday fan and its time to let them know what its gonna be like...and its time for them to realise...its not sodding football, they ain't gonna see any....I suppose itsalso time to realise "Grandad has been a tw*t"..but so was my Grandad who got me into this shambles...So live with it...

Josh Windass the first to put his notice in.

Bannan and Palmer have refused to take any of their owed wages until all of the non-playing staff have been paid in full.

That might help explain it, but doesn't mean that most of us will disagree with him.

I think the discussion is pertinent and should be in Pure Football. It's not about knitting, ham and pease pudding stotties or other such fripperies.

There, but for the grace of whatever your deity or atheistic equivalent is, go us…

The Sheffield Wednesday owner has had cash flow problems before, they are a sinking ship and players are entitled to leave on a free if they haven’t been paid on time. Doesn’t look good for them
 
read about it on the athletic earlier, grim situation

who is leading pre season with Rohl not reporting back? chaos

They need Donald and Methven to come in cos the first job will be replacing all the main stand seats so they don't say "Chansiri" any more
 
Third embargo now, for not paying other clubs fees owed. If that's not already the record I'm sure they'll get there soon enough.
 
I think it was Guardian pod saying he's asking £250m but Wednesday are worth in the region of £50m. The suggestion was he can't afford to sell at a realistic price😱
