Memries of Chansiri Wednesday FC

[metalblade]

They may have been The Wednesday until 1929 but puzzlingly the original 1896 FA Cup win celebration mug says 'Sheffield Wednesday'. That was in an article in The Star (10 May 2018) after the mug was found in an attic in a house in Firth Park. https://www.thestar.co.uk/news/trea...-wednesday-s-history-found-in-attic-1-9158525

Probably a knock off can't be an "official" pig mug.

what a difference a month makes

That the same blonde bird when he got a bit of verbals outside the death trap on satdi , after there 0-4 win

 

[dublin 10 blade]

We've done well to recover and regroup after the 0-0 battering we took in January.

I'd really like us to show up and play well this time. The way to stop us playing is to push your front 3 on and make us be direct. They won't do that. We just need to score early, their players are just dying to roll over.

This is probably the last rational post I'll make before Friday. Fuck Wednesday and the diseased Tuna pig they rode in on

UTB, COYRAWW

You mean you’ve more than 1 rational post Carlton , now that’s amazing

Why does everyone say it was 6 years when it was only 4? Is it a joke that I don't get?

I think your forgetting the 2 Wilson years

Wendy were promoted in 2011/12 after the ched saga.
We were promoted in the 2016/17 season.

So that gives them 2012/13, 2013/14, 2015/16 & 2016/17 as seasons where they were a division higher than us. 4 seasons, not 6.

So that gives them 2012/13, 2013/14, 2015/16 & 2016/17 as seasons where they were a division higher than us. 4 seasons, not 6.

But at the end of the 2011/12 season - when Wendy were promoted entirely due to the unlawful imprisonment of our leading scorer (Ched Evans) there was a 'gap' as the pigs finished above us. Utterly corrupt but enough for the pigs to claim the higher 'moral ground'. With three games of the season left (when the police took a break from the Madelaine McCann jolly in Portugal, pursuing dead politicians and DJs etc. and Ched was convicted - but later cleared - of an 'offence' that tens of thousands of blokes commit every Friday and Saturday night) Ched had scored 29 goals and United were a shoo-in for promotion. Sans-Ched, we got just 2 points from the last nine and the pigs went up instead of us. Therefore, and flimsy as fuck, the pigs could claim the first 'gap'.



In the 2012/13, 2013/14, 2014/15, 2015/16 & 2016/17 seasons the pigs were in a higher division, therefore a '6 year gap'. According to them...

 

[blade too long]

Apart from those two.
What difference does it make that they are no longer in the league? They were both relegated long after the changes took place.

More famously, Wimbledon were renamed Milton Keynes Dons, although there was an obvious reason for that.... and they're still in the league.

I don't think Orient's decision was because of a big mistake. They changed their name originally due to some boundary changes and I'm guessing changed it back to identify with the local area again. Although I don't know, I'm guessing The Wednesday became Sheffield Wednesday for the same reason.

Anyway, I don't see why it matters.

its the fact The Wednesday took 51 years to change their name
I wrote a lot of teams changed names but were all within a lot smaller time frame
and Wednesday are trying to hide the fact they were not named Sheffield , by such as the paintings professing to have the name on show when quite clearly it wasnt

man utd were newton heath
birmingham were small heath

but those are suburbs in the cities they are in , like tottehams in london

Yeah, load of bollox. They were above us for 4 years. They're rewriting history by saying otherwise and if we repeat it we're feeding their fake news. We should all stick to the factual 4 from now on.

Right, I’ll try and be as balanced as I can here.

This is the 117th League meeting between Sheffield United and The Wednesday/Sheffield Wednesday* (delete as appropriate). I say this because the pitch-side advertising at The Theatre of Rust often lies about ‘150 years of Sheffield Wednesday’ when, in fact they were called ‘The Wednesday’ until 1929 so it’s actually ’89 years of Sheffield Wednesday’. (The next time they’re on TV, take a look for yourself. It will be in between the equally-bogus ‘Chansiri’, ‘D-Taxis’, ‘Chansiri’, ‘BK Balloons’, Chansiri’, ‘Elev8’, ‘Chansiri’, ‘The Wednesday Pale Ale’, ‘Chansiri’ etc. ads. designed to avoid FFP rules.

League Record v Sheffield Wednesday to date:

Home: P: 58 W: 25 D: 22 L:11 F: 90 A: 62

Away: P: 58 W: 18 D: 15 L: 25 F: 71 A: 87

Doubles: United 10, Wednesday 6*

*In fact, Sheffield Wednesday have only done ‘the double’ over Sheffield United once. Ever. That was in the 2008-09 season when the pigs had Brian ‘Bison Head’ Laws as manager and United had the equally-useless Kevin Blackwell ‘in charge’.

I did a full round-up of our recent meetings with The Visitors here:

Memries of Wednesday​

The last time we met The Stain was on January 12th, 2018. Loovens and Wallace conspired to kick our players all over the pitch but it was justified as Wednesday won this game 0-0.

​

So what has changed with our Nauseous Neighbours since then?

The Dear Leader:

Dejphon Chansiri remains in total control of the weird state known as ‘Hillsborough’, where criticism is forbidden and his followers are in a trance-like state. Having been beguiled by big spending on over-priced, past-it crap like Fletcher, Boyd, Hooper etc., Chansiri’s disciples (‘Meeester Chansiri’ as they have been brainwashed into calling him) are blind to the increasing decrepitude of the ancient monument at S6, which includes parts of the ground regularly falling off and the death-trap Leppings Lane stand being covered in tarpaulin instead of being bulldozed in 1989. Rather than funding much-needed maintenance at the ground, Kim Wrong ‘Un prefers to plaster every available surface with ‘Chansiri’ propaganda and the names of utterly fictitious companies. At the moment, the S6 followers are clamouring for yet another fall-guy to replace the current incumbent, but remain ignorant to the fact that no manager of any standing would tolerate The Dear Leader’s interference. Still, they are childishly happy to donate a large proportion of their state salaries (dole) to prop up Kim’s ruthless regime.

‘Mind the Gap’:

Fair play, for once the pigs didn’t nick this off us, but droned on about it endlessly for 6 years while they were in The Championship and we were in Division One (duh!). However this all changed on August 5th 2017 when both clubs were both in the same division.

Since then, and except for a few, fleeting minutes on the second matchday of this season (when Wendy scraped a home draw with QPR and United lost at Middlesbrough), United have always had the gap over the pigs – that’s over 15 months. In fact, at one time in the 2017-18 season, ‘The Gap’ was nineteen points. Not bad for a pub team who wouldn’t be able to compete in La Liga.

Before KO in the upcoming pigs’ game United are – as ever – maintaining The Gap which stands at ten points.

Championship Table:

Going into this 117th league derby, The Blades are in third spot in the table…

…while Wednesday occupy their customary position – near the relegation places.

Form Guide:

The Blades’ recent run of erratic form has seen us slip to tenth place in the form guide (based on the last six league games). Wednesday are second-bottom.

View attachment 45636​

Based on the same criteria (last six league games), United are joint-top (with Derby) of ‘Home form’ with 14 points out of the last 18. Wednesday are equal-eighth in terms of ‘Away form’ with nine points out of a possible 18.

Top Scorers:

Not much to report here. A brief purple patch by Reach, two braces by Joao etc.

The Manager:

Jos Luhukay ‘took charge’ at Hillsborough on 5th January 2018 after Wednesday had – with their usual class – sacked previous manager Carlos Carvalhal on Christmas Eve, 2017. Dead Loss Jos has presided over Wendy being nearer relegation than promotion. His bland, clueless tactics were first seen in the ‘derby’ match at Bramall Lane on January 12th this year when a 0-0 win for Wednesday was greeted by their players and supporters with wild abandon, throwing shirts to the crowd etc. This match will forever be known as ‘The January 12th Massacre’.

they were never called sheffield , like a painting showing sheffield wednesday on the old olive grove stand , which was dismantled and used at owlerton
, but its just artistic licence
actual photo shows no writing on roof

painting is pure invention

BTL. True about artistic licence being taken, but there is some evidence writing on the roof - if you increase the contrast on the original image you can clearly see it.

Owlerton wasn’t added to the Sheffield boundary until 1929. That’s one reason for not changing their name.

As for this ‘our chairman formed you from us’ stuff. Wow. Just wow

 

[grafikhaus]

Hey up grafikhaus you're famous mate!

And that, in a nutshell, sums Wendy 'fans' up.

'I look on there sometimes for a laugh...'

Shades of Mark. 'I don't want to knock Yoo-nited, but...'

'We moved on and built our own ground...'

Er, think that was FIFA's money. If it was down to spending their own money, well witness the shithouse that Hillsborough has become. And then we have the predictable ad hominem attacks. Look 'alanharper', you've never met me and I've never met you. But I just know you're an utter cunt. Like almost all Wednesdayites.

Have you noticed how the crowd looks bigger on the painting

 

[Eddiecolquhounsleg]

neither of whom are league clubs now

chester only changed their name to honour Chester becoming a city
and orient realised it was a big mistake

teams have never had a different name for over 50 years apart from one

Swansea Town were formed in 1912 and changed their name to Swansea City in 1969. They were Town for 57 years and have been City for nearly 50.

well be a daft being called town after swansea were given city status, not to mention a bit confusing

my point is avoiding the name of the place not the rovers city or wanderers bit

Ive pointed this out many times, hillsborough was in ecclesfield parish which only became under the Sheffield boundary after this date

Wednesday were simply not a sheffield team ,

Yes. I understand your point it's just that I think your original premise is a bit tenuous. For me, there is no difference between The Wednesday and Sheffield Wednesday. They are one and the same. In other words, once a knuckle dragging gruntsnuffler, always a knuckle dragging gruntsnuffler.
