Weather, Wigan & 2007

[Gateford Blade]

Reading too much into it?

Probably just the nerves

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

I’m wearing different underpants today does that help?

 

[BladeInIreland]

I’m wearing different underpants today does that help?

Good idea, I’ll change mine.

 

[Roygbiv]

I had loads of hair that day, I have very little now. I've done my bit

I had very little hair that day. I have loads now so done my bit too. Unless we cancelled each other out?

 

[SW12 to S12 to S18]

My thoughts exactly.

Just to be safe PM me your discarded underpants and I'll wear em for ya.

 

[Sheffsteel]

Remember it well. Don’t think the weather was too bad during the match, think it rained on and off with bits of sun.

But after the match walking away from the Lane there was a sudden monsoon like downpour.
I remember thinking God doesn’t like us, he’s relegated us then in a week of nice weather he sends a massive rain cloud to the Lane to piss us all off even more as we walk back to our cars thinking about the Danny Webber dink over the keeper that hit the inside of the post, then cleared off the line.

 

[broomhillblade]

I've got a new toothbrush. Red and white, of course.

You have ruined everything

 

[DaveBassettsgoneonholiday]

I'm not the only Blade in a bar full of West Ham fans in Tallinn this time either.

 

[LJBlade]

Probably just the nerves

Have we not played, and won, in this type of weather since the Wigan game?

 

[Manuel Azaña]

Who will Wilder play out of position?
More importantly, will Sean head to the Manager's office and call Mrs Wilder a cunt?

 

[Swannyblade]

You have ruined everything

I had roughly the same amount of hair that day...but it’s distributed about my body differently now...does this mean Connor Washington will score?

 

[Feo]

Was going to post the same. Can’t help thinking back to that Sunday.

 

[Mad Mick]

I’m wearing different underpants today does that help?

I'm wearing Pampers.

 

[Stretch]

Different manager, different team, different mindset and a much bigger prize on offer.

Chill your beans folks.

Remember it well had to walk up to The Swim lnn on West St to meet my mates, got absolutely soaked in that downpour.

Oh and the Cherry on the cake was all my mates are Wednesday fans.

This^^^^^^100%

Just turn them inside out. Get another few days out of them.

Did you have a Wigon?

 

[SW12 to S12 to S18]

I don’t think so, I can only remember Chelsea and Wigan. The only difference being, this isn’t our last match.

Had a ceremonial burning of them when I got back that day, fortunately remembered to take them off first

Can't believe he's playing Norwood at left centre half to contain Colin Quaner

 

[YES Blade]

I gave up on the superstitions and worrying about omens years ago, what will be will be! There will always be another season and the lows will soon be forgotten when a high comes along.

But if you can’t be confident today, I don’t think you’ll ever be confident as a Blade!

 

[Pinchy]

Has anyone been linked with Everton?

 

[ShockingBadBuy]

I have about the same amount of hair.

So the weather just reinforces my hair-induced feeling that there's an encouraging symmetry at work today. Relegated from the Prem at home against a shite team in the pissing wet? Promoted back to the Prem at home against a shite team in the pissing wet.*

UTFMB.

* in effect, fingers crossed, with apologies to all relevant deities

 

[LJBlade]

I don’t think so, I can only remember Chelsea and Wigan. The only difference being, this isn’t our last match.

So it’s not been windy and rainy in any game since the Wigan game?
