You'll see Barnsley in 13th with a goal difference of zero and Birmingham one place below us with a goal difference of -5. Made me smile!
I remember after the first game typical DeeDah FM host saying "Maybe Sheffield Wednesday should be looking at more than just survival this year? Maybe they will be looking at the playoffs?".
I know more Wednesday fans than Barnsley fans and they all thought they were in with a real shout of the play-offs if not better this year, I told them they didn't realise how tough this league was but was ridiculed with the excuse that obviously I would think that following Barnsley. Although we are doing better than I thought, it's no surprise to me that Wednesday are where they are. Not only have they totally cast aside the team that got them promotion, but they've replaced them with a load of foreign gash and reserve players from Prem and Championship sides - plus Jones was always going to want to sign Bothroyd who seems to have fallen out with the fans already. Made me laugh with that Rodri they have on loan from Barcelona (B), my mates thought he was the new Messi after his first game, since then I've heard he has been absolutely sh*te.
I predicted they'd get relegated. More in hope than owt else. But I saw their defence/keepers, and it just isn't up to it at this level, and their supposed 'flair' players don't work hard enough defensively. Antonio and Johnson especially. Uncle Meeeelan will have the cheque book out in January..
What l like best about the Piglets is this "Goal Machine" they have, whats his name now? Madine, aye Gary Madine the goal machine....
******* comical on Porktalk, l think they've all got bipolar. Hope you saved that Mido thread in your favourites.
Washing machine Madine! Beats his girlfriend, drink drove and was caught with cocaine...typical he'd be the fowls favourite! Bet he fits in so well down in parson cross.
The thread where EVERY porker said we'd get relegated. The thread where NO porker agreed with my opinion that if we were relegation material, then surely they were.... Can't wait for December 15th.
MASSIVE Back to work today, the old bloke who comes in our shop, who just a few weeks ago said Wednesday were the best team in the country, Rodri was a genius destined for Man Utd and that they'd spank us 4-1 at Oakwell in a 'close' match has gone particularly quiet, I wonder how he'll feel today when I ask him about the weekends game.
