I thought they were supposed to be older, bigger, better or something like that. Strange that they are now reduced to being satisfied after a fourth consecutive defeat at the hands of their (10 man) city rivals which relegated them in record quick time.

Wednesday fans listing United's 'shit house players', something Wednesday would never do of course. Only two of the players listed....played for Wednesday as well.
They missed Dean Henderson!
 



The Express put it quite nicely as well, "As for United, they will never forget the day they relegated Wednesday - when footballing history was made in Sheffield."
The national media seems to have taken the view that relegation at the hands of your rivals in February is generally a bad thing you’d hope to avoid
 
Please feel free to remind those blessed Wednesday fans that their assumption of supremacy is based upon a raft of mythology, not least of all the '1867' nonsense.

'The Wednesday' did in fact predate our club. It did indeed play at Bramall Lane. But they were ousted and played at Olive Grove and later Owlerton - then outside Sheffield's city boundary - still as 'The Wednesday' whilst the city's second named club, 'Sheffield United' emerged as a footballing arm of the Cricket Club in 1889.

'Sheffield Wednesday' only became that name forty years later in 1929.

Wednesday hired Bramall Lane for their big games. It was never their home.
