Fucking global presence

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Their pain oozes from every word they utter. I fcking love it

 

[GrayBlade]

I’ve said it many times, they’re not right in the head, but they're happy with that. The fact that nobody within their own cesspit ever questions the lies and exaggerations, or if they do they get ignored or shouted down tells me that it’s more about organised willing madness rather than something we could feel sorry for them for. I mentioned this when they were lying about what size gates they averaged and what they were going to get when Chancer left, the problem in this day and age is that if a group online continually make wild fictitious statements about themselves, most people and even the MSM just seem to accept it as fact just the story rather than call it out for the bullshit it clearly is. I saw a post on Sunday’s game thread pointing out that their average player age is over 26, not a load of kids. It was just ignored and they continued to carry on lying, and this is what happens when any of the lies are called out. As I said, it’s organised and willing, as a fanbase we’re like chalk and cheese (thank god).

 

[SLB]

A pathetic bunch of losers. Imagine trying to pretend this fixture doesn't mean anything. Some of their Owl supporting ancestors must be turning in their graves.

We win, and it's a "pyrhic" victory, but if they win, draw or even score a goal, they will be singing about it for generations.

Chansiri, and their own arrogance has driven most of them mad. I hope we bury the cunts.

I honestly hope we get double figures against Global Presence FC.

Real Madrid
Bayern Munich
Sheffield Wednesday
Barcelona


Yeah it just seems right.

 

[S64 Blade]

They’ll make a dvd out of this.
The fact they will love it shows how little they’ve achieved

A progressive Wednesday fan, I see. No longer living in 1993 like a lot of them. Instead, living in 2003. Maybe we’ll also release a mini disc of player interviews? Progress.

 

[dc_blade]

Global Presence would make a great new thread title Foxy

An embarrassment of riches for you to plunder Roy. Like printing your own money.
And the BLS apparently to be reborn as the Bernie Clifton Stand for this Sunday?

 

[manxblade]

I really hope this is the last ever view from the pigs. I want them to disappear never to be seen again.

 

[mattbianco1]

I asked Co-Pilot to summarise it. Even Artificial Intelligence is laughing at them

Here’s the emotional temperature of that thread in a nutshell — and it’s a fascinating mix of bravado, fatalism, bitterness, gallows humour, and a few flashes of honesty.

“The Five Stages of Wednesday Fan Derby Grief”​

1. Denial​

“We’re not bothered.”
“We stopped caring in August.”
“This isn’t even a derby, really.”

Translation: They are absolutely, 100%, deeply, spiritually bothered.

2. Anger​

Directed at:

• Sheffield United
• Chansiri
• The universe
• The concept of football
• Anyone who mentions the word “relegation” within a 12‑mile radius

The vibe is: “United celebrating this is like bragging about beating a toddler at arm wrestling.” Which is a bold statement from a fanbase currently being pinned by said toddler.

3. Bargaining​

“If we lose, it doesn’t matter.”
“If we win, it’ll be the funniest thing since Carlos’ Wembley dance.”
“If we lose by fewer than four, that’s basically a win.”

This is the emotional equivalent of trying to haggle with fate at a car boot sale.

4. Depression​

A deep, existential sadness hangs over the thread like fog over the Snake Pass. Comments include:

• “We’ve been relegated since the warm-up of the first game.”
• “I checked out months ago.”
• “I’m only going for the beer.”

This is the kind of melancholy that can only be cured by a 94th‑minute shinner off someone’s backside.

5. Acceptance (with banter)​

The final stage. The Wednesday fan superpower. The gallows humour that has carried them through decades of emotional cardio.

Examples:

• “Let’s take inflatable ostriches and bounce even when we’re 3–0 down.”
• “They’ll make a DVD if they beat us.”
• “We’re the bigger club anyway.”

It’s like watching a man fall down a flight of stairs while insisting he meant to do it.

Bonus Themes​

The “We’re Massive” Defence Mechanism​

When the football is bad, the history gets louder. It’s like a forcefield powered by 1990s nostalgia.

The “We Don’t Care” Chorus​

Repeated roughly every three comments. Always a sign that they care more than oxygen.

The Tiny, Forbidden Hope​

A whisper in the wind: “What if… we actually win?” Quickly drowned out by: “Shut up, you’ll jinx it.”

​

In short: The mood is a chaotic blend of despair, bravado, self‑mockery, and the kind of humour you develop only after years of emotional relegation cardio.

It’s Sheffield Wednesday fans doing what they do best: suffering loudly, joking through the pain, and secretly dreaming of limbs in the away end.

Co-pilot with the statement of the Month BTW:

They are absolutely, 100%, deeply, spiritually bothered.

 

[Hanauer]

Why do they keep calling US the Pigs and BDBL the Sty. Shurely shome mishtake.

 

[Davalon]

Come on own up who are the United fans that would rather relegate them then go up ?


Just for the record I couldn’t care less if we relegate them or not they are just another club to me. Admittedly a deluded scrounging whining club who play in a awful dump of a stadium, they are totally irrelevant to me and probably every other football fan out side of Sheffield.

There will deffo be some.

In my formative years going to the Lane, there were a handful of older blokes who firmly believed proper Unitedites had the attitude of wanting the Pigs to lose first and foremost, and us to win second.

 

[Gimli]

That's just made be angry. I absolutely despise them.

That's not me being obsessed. It's embarrassment at their fuckin arrogance.

4 League titles and 4 cups versus 1 League title and 4 cups - 12 of those 13 shared honours were 91+ years ago - They go on like they're decorated like Liverpool FFS.

When did it become a rule that we're no longer allowed to celebrate beating them BTW? Was it after the 2-4 at Hillsborough.
If the shoe was on the other foot, they'd shout about it no end.

I'm just gutted that Wilder allowed them those three 0-0 wins.

We are allowed to celebrate beating them.

Don’t let them gaslight you into thinking it’s somehow not worth enjoying a win against them because they are bad.

The reason they’ve concocted this narrative of ‘can they even celebrate beating us?’ Is because they are trying (and failing) to come to terms with the fact that they are shit, and haven’t laid a glove on us for years.

The more they say it, the more they hope we actually start to believe that beating them is in fact akin to punching a puppy.

I’ll always celebrate beating them, I will especially celebrate if we beat them at the weekend and therefore relegate them.

Imagine being relegated at Hilsbrough - regardless of how shite the season had been until then, it’d be awful, we’d never live it down and they’d bang on about it like they do ‘the Boxing Day massacre’

So we should do the same.

Reading that, it does beg the question are they actually getting worse?!

 

[blade67]

“this is why it’ll be made into the biggest thing in the history of Sheffield football in their eyes.
They’ve nowt else.”

This from supporters of a club that were having celebratory dinners, decades after winning a 3rd division game against us.

 

[Whiston Blade]

“even now in our lowest ebb and their highest peak, they are nowhere near us"

 

[wadblade]

I can't wait to watch a Global Presence™ at the Lane on Sunday.

And I cannt wait to see the 'Global presence' in the 3rd division

Fucking hell:

"even now in our lowest ebb and their highest peak, they are nowhere near us"

These people actually walk amongst us.

 

[S74Blade]

For the first time ever on a view from, I stopped reading. They are just so fucking massive they have it in their piggy heads that we’re bothered about them. They are simply rubbish, they are deluded, they are rusty and they are going down. All they can come up with is, they were once (before most of em were born) a good side. Go down, stay up, go bust, get bought out I don’t give a shite. UTB let’s just stuff the dirty little porkers!!

I had to change my language or, get moderated so I did

 

[Flumps]

Fucking hell:

"even now in our lowest ebb and their highest peak, they are nowhere near us"

He's got a point to be fair. We certainly aren't anywhere near them, apart from maybe geographically.

 

[Selly]

Co-pilot with the statement of the Month BTW:

Of course they are bothered - I've said it elsewhere, the worst case scenario for any club at the start of the season is to get relegated. And if you asked 100 football fans where the worst place to get it confirmed would be all 100 would state the home ground of their biggest rivals.

The only way that it would be worse is for them to actually have a chance at survival - but that's unlikely to ever happen because it would require a derby to be scheduled in Late April/Early May - and that never, ever happens these days (in fact since 1990 its only happened twice, 21 April 1993 and 18 April 2010)

 

[S74Blade]

“even now in our lowest ebb and their highest peak, they are nowhere near us. This Sunday will at best for them be a Pyrrhic victory. . Trophies, global presence, history set, recency of historical significance, overall highs are much higher, overall lows are still higher, legendary players in their own right, stronger community engagement. They are the better team and “franchise” right now, but Wednesday are the greater club. “


View attachment 231442

That cracked me up did that. Yep they certainly are the better club aren’t they FFS

 

[Crafty Blade]

 

[S74Blade]

Actually agree with some of the stuff about relegation. It's like kicking a dog after the vet has just given the injection to put it to sleep.

But my God, and they wonder why we talk about delusion.

Global presence LMFAO

I’m surprised there is any room left in the ground. Their Global presence will just fill the whole stadium
. Get in early or be very disappointed

 

[S74Blade]

Fucking global presence

I feel this loony tune is taking the piss

 

[BeardyBlade]

Every piggy will always squeal when it’s head is on the block…a few swift blows from the Blades and we can wave cheerio to the most deluded fan base in the universe

 

[Bell4]

Thanks Roy. I find it quite amusing that they are trying to tell themselves that any Blades victory will be a hollow victory bcos it’ll ’be ‘like a grown man kicking a one legged 5 year old child’ and in the next breath go on to say how great their (quite lucky) 2-1 semi final win was, lol. Hardly like we were on level pegging back then squad wise (on paper). Fuck em, we win Sunday and I will revel in it

There is no way on earth that their semi final win was on any way lucky . If it wasn’t for Kelly in goal we would have lost 4/5 - 1 .

Let’s not start talking like them hey .

Let’s just beat them , beat them well , laugh at them bouncing like they don’t care , send them down to the third league in England , with no owner despite that administration clown telling everyone tens of consortium’s were fighting over ownership and it would all be complete just after Xmas (clocks go forward soon btw) .

"We may be a complete laughing stock and fucking embarrassment, finishing with the lowest points total in the history of the second tier and get relegated by our bitter rivals...

... but if we dress as ostriches the last laugh will definitely be on them."
