Do you want Wednesday to go into liquidation and (presumably) start again as a Phoenix club?

I voted No because I think a scenario such as that would have the opposite effect.

If they ended up in that situation it would only unite and galvanize them as they romped their way back up the leagues.

It'd be funny at first but they'd ultimately become even more unbearable.

The way to truly hurt them is perpetual struggle with disappointment and hope.

A ten year stint in League One where they keep finishing just outside the play offs would be perfect.

To paraphrase Orwell, "If you want a picture of the future, imagine them playing in the FA trophy, and having to organise a raffle to stay afloat, every year - for ever"

Looks like the merger has been completed. Such a shame that massive, historical, and well supported team have had to adopt that filthy Owls badge.

 

[SRBlade]

Like you lot giving the big 1 now.

Big 1 for the biggest away Sheff derby win.

I'm sure we won't continue to give it the big un for 46 years though.

I appreciate the sentiments of wanting them to go out of existence.
But if they did, we'd have no one to deride or laugh at.
I just want to see them suffer the indignity of ALWAYS being beneath us.

I see Clive Betts wants any new owners to demolish the Leppings lane end and build a new stand, so in effect a new owner buys the pigs on the cheap doesn't clear any debts they owe but builds them a new stand, like I said in an earlier post don't spend any money on the death trap unless someone else pays for it or helps pay for it. Should have demolished that end of the ground after the disaster but no they spent millions they didn't really have on the team in the early 90's

It seems really odd to me, that 36 years later, our parliamentary defender of all things pig, is suddenly wanting to hit the club with extra costs.

Is he thinking that UK taxpayers would all willingly chip in, to restore this wonderful massive institution, back to their rightful place, atop the Champions League?

 

[Numpty's Dusty Ruts.]

I want them to disappear up their own arses, and as for a phoenix club, balls to that. Just expunge any evidence of their existence!!!!

In all seriousness I reckon the way many United fans relate to this question is based around age. Some older forum members maybe used to watch both teams on alternate weeks and feel slightly ambivalent about their total demise. For many younger United fans we've been top dogs during their lifetime and although they may hate Wednesday they may not want them to go bust because it's been a piss take and an easy 6 points during their lifetime. However I also believe there's a large group of Blades (of which i fall into) that despise the cunts and all that comes with them. Anyone whose formative years took in Boxing day onwards and through the early nineties when (91 double apart) they were better than us and their fanbase was unbearable will absolutely relish their fall from grace and eventual demise. That's a lot of people. Maybe anyone in the 50 - 65 age bracket. These are the people that will have had to put up with all their shit for years without for many years a chance to put it right. Drink it in while you can and if you know a pig rub it in while you can, hopefully they'll not be around much longer.

I’m 26 and would happily see them vanish into the abyss.

 

[Lightsoot]

I vote ‘No’. I’d rather they be miserable as f**k languishing in the lower leagues for years. Coming back as a phoenix club and ploughing through the pub leagues would actually give them pleasure and make them more insufferable. Don’t give them the easy way out.

 

[Hanauer]

Surely we want them around purely so we can humiliate them twice a season ( unfortunately not for the next 10 seasons minimum due to relagation)

But we will have to put up with their scary fans jumping up and down behind police barricade at Sty Corner.

 

[GreasyChipBeattie]

What could possibly go wrong?

 

[Matlock Blade]

I can't understand why any Blades fans want anything except the very worst to happen to the pigs. I have friends who are pigs, but I want them to go into liquidation. Won't happen as they are a massive club.
