Roy's View From... Pre-Match View From Wednesday

[Blades1971]

They need to remember they aren't playing Peterborough or Barnsley. Keep our heads and play football with the quality players we have.

 

[DifferentClass]

Very fitting as a lot of their fanbase don't appear to be of this Earth either.

More like Uranus.

 

[Roygbiv]

When I went to South East Asia a couple of months ago when asked where I was from every single 1 of them said sheffield united that's without me talking about football, obviously it was our times in the Premier League so with Wednesday not being there for 25 years nobody under 35ish knows who they are

Love the idea of him going round the world asking random people who are bigger out of Wednesday and United like anybody outside of Sheffield has ever thought about. They probably just nod and smile when he says "it's wednesday though innit".

 

[JayGreen17]

Souza is definitely not fit, you can tell in his tone, he’s just trying to make that lot guess. But I’d wager £100 that he’s not in the first 11.

 

[Bennyand the Blades]

It's all good fun .

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

They never learn...the stupids are bouncing before a ball has been kicked.

 

[Sean Thornton]

It seems while most of them who have Blades mates say that it’s the mates who are worried/think United will get beat other than lying shithouse salmonbrains who states ALL his Blades mates reckon we will thrash them. Odd that.

As i responded, there's also a comment that says nobody expect them to win so all the pressure on us......

Bookies have them favourites.

 

[Speedracer]

Thanks Roy.

I don't know where to start reviewing their views, it is total crap, empty words that mean nothing at all. If they really believe that guff they are even more stupid than I thought, it's just meaningless garbage.

 

[The Crab]

Each to their own/whatever gets them to sleep at night.

Chloroform works best…

Cheers Roy

 

[The Crab]

They are apparently sending a crew up to The Banner Cross on Sunday to look for Wilder if they win.

So look out for the Sunshine Bus in the car park…

 

[The Crab]

"Nobody has us expecting to win...".

Apart from the bookies you fucking tool.

'All my blades mates reckon 4-0'.

Yeah, all zero of them ya lying twat.

The only “blades mate” to say that will have been his support worker to calm him down

 

[loyalblade95]

It feels like they are trying to convince themselves that Rohl will stay with them for next season and lead them on a promotion charge that everyone else should be in awe of.

Meanwhile, those of us that live in the real world can see what is really going on.

I bet there are some of them that can't even admit that Chansiri is turning them into an even bigger laughing stock than they are right now.

 

[The Crab]

Feel like I’m being a bit harsher than usual. Been listening to Frankie Boyle…

 

[metty]

Cheers Roy

 

[ZoneManWilf]

Considered my regular thought that after living away from Sheffield for quite a few years now, my opinion on our cross city acquaintances may have moved on a bit.

Quick read of this.

Nope, still fucking hate 'em.

C'mon United, lets put this run of middling performances behind us and put in a proper one.

 

[true99blade]

Did one of them really say us Blades would prefer us to be 17th in the Prem whilst they languish in the lower leagues, over them winning the Premier League constantly with us just behind them? I mean, sure, he’s right.

 

[ZoneManWilf]

Feel like I’m being a bit harsher than usual. Been listening to Frankie Boyle…

It is impossible to be too harsh in your words when this lot are being discussed, crack on.

 

[The Crab]

If I went full Frankie Foxy would have me banned and burnt at the stake…

Sheffield Wednesday: Older, Bigger, Better.

In the last 55 years, we've averaged a place higher than them.
They've averaged 1800 more home fans a game (but in the last 5 years we've had almost 5000 more home fans on average).
They've won 1 major trophy, to our 0.

The gap between us in most living people's memories has been pretty much nothing... but they carry-on as if they're a massive outfit, swimming in prestige.
Its absolute bollocks.

Let's also not forget how irrelevant they are globally in the present day.
They've not been in the PL this century. No academy graduates of note. Their Stadium is a rust bucket and their Owner is a crackpot.

But but everyone knows Wednesday are bigger, honestly you ask anyone, I've met blokes on holiday and they all say Wednesday, are bigger ,honestly,you ask Man City fans they'll tell you, honestly, ask anyone, my neighbour found Jesus and he said Wednesday were bigger. You just ask anyone and they'll tell you.. I've done a poll of every football fan on the planet and they all say it.

 

[pleh_blade]

20 years since Cardiff ‘05. Massive anniversary. That’ll get their fans up for this. No team talk needed.

 

[ZLB]

And to think if things had gone our way on the day of the amazing Wycombe experience we could have bragged about ‘Exeter 12’.

 

[chesblade]

There loving the fact rohl mentioned they might play us again this season. I really really hope we beat them

 

[Houston_Blade]

I actually work in the same building as a pig now unfortunately and he’s said today that he’s very confident after their last 2 results. My default position is always that I think we’ll lose and he said I was probably right. I hope he’s wrong.

 

[UTB Blade]

Thank you, Roy.

Your 'I survived pork talk' medal awaits.

 

[Northernsoulblade]

Cheers Roy hope u had plenty of hand sanitizer after delving into the pigs shitfest

 

[S64 Blade]

Love the idea of him going round the world asking random people who are bigger out of Wednesday and United like anybody outside of Sheffield has ever thought about. They probably just nod and smile when he says "it's wednesday though innit".

Probably asks the question purposely on a Wednesday, in case they don’t really know what he’s on about (likely) and think he’s just asking what day it is.

 

[CoatesyBlade]

Holy smokes! That was worse than I thought it was going to be!
I thought there might be at least some intriguing thoughts on the game, perhaps a bit of discussion on the tactics and potential player matchups. But alas no!
Credit where credit is due… their unwavering dedication to massaging one another’s fragile egos is stalwart and impressive!

 

[originaltrueblade]

What a deluded bunch they are. In America recently when talking about football soccer as they wrongly call it. They ask where you from England I say and Sheffield, oh Sheffield United I like them and the shirts just like our flag. They never mention the pigs because to them Wednesday is just a name of the day of the week. So there you have it S6 a forgotten not cared about team.

I have detested this lot forever and after Sunday they will be forgotten yet again. We play to our strengths and go at them don’t sit back and we take them to the cleaners

Thanks Roy

 

[GymClassHero]

Would any of us swap one of their colossal achievements for the 2018/19 promotion season? Or even the 100 point League 1 season?

Beating Wycombe is a pretty high bar mate. Not sure even a 9th placed prem finish would top that.
