    You could actually start to feel sorry for their current plight .... then you read Adamjack and your sympathies flood away like the Humber into the North Sea.

    I bet they can sell some Premier League Season Tickets that will be valid for 100 years once they're back!

    Well, at least they acknowledged they were beaten by a weakened/reserve team. Imagine the pasting they COULD have had……heh heh

    Funny story. We were playing rovrum in a friendly at New York stadium. Having a bit of a chat wi a rovrum fan int pub afore. Wendy. pipes up, started giving it 6 fingers speak. But in an antagonising way. Mate says. "can tha count" stuck his hand up 1 thumb no fingers. (lost em in a work accident) "wrong again"
    lol.

    I love the way they completely miss the irony in their attitude. Looking down their noses at Barnsley, Rotherham etc as though Sheffield were some world renowned hub of culture and metropolitan living. I mean....it's Sheffield ffs!

    The Moore effect
    That's another reserve team whose battered us Preseason or not Its really pathetic

    Response
    I think you two need a reality check. First and foremost, we are a League One team for a reason. One that has had 15 senior players departing at the end of last season and cannot sign replacements due to the complete clusterfvck our Chairman has presided over. Alarm bells not ringing?!? Does this not even come in to your equations or thought processes?

    Barnsley on the other hand have a good management structure, complete with a Sport Science department, good scouting networks and a solid recruitment team. Their playoff challenge last year was not by some fluke, but by putting in place the correct departments and investing their time, money, experience, contacts and resources correctly. The antithesis of Sheffield Wednesday.

    Our club may have a better history, may have a larger following but we are street behind teams like Barnsley at this moment. Wake up and smell the coffee.

    My favourite extra-fingers taunt was on the train platform after a home game against Doncaster. A group of Donny lads marched onto the platform towards Meadowhall singing to the tune of the Sloop John B:
    We've only got five
    We've only got fi-i-ive
    You've got six fingers
    We've only got five
    Kid on the other platform across the tracks pipes up to the same tune:
    Your mum takes them all...
    It caught on like wildfire on both sides of the rails and the Donny lads sheepishly dispersed into the crowd on the platform :D
