About 67 on all our other trips.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very old and we're all desperate to see it pulled down. For obvious reasons. Is there many steps leading to the top tier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlsonlineAdmin Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 That 4,626 you brought in 2004 was quality, on the back of 11 straight wins. In the subsequent 7 trips you've brought 4,829. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the subsequent 7 trips you've brought 4,829. I think that was the last “big” fixture we’ve had at your place. (Bar opening game a couple of seasons back, when there was something of a boycott because of ticket prices) We tend not to travel in great numbers to places north of the midlands. Hillsborough is an iconic stadium, that every supporter should visit at least once. However once you’ve been there, it’s not a very attractive away day, imo. It would be great to have you away at a key time in the season and make use of the large allocation. I remember an FA Cup match we brought about 4 up to you as well. Under Wilson I think and we lost that 1-0 too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only visit so far to Hillsborough. Can't remember much about the game but I liked the ground. Was that around the time when Danny Wilson was under fire from lots of Sheff Wed fans, including the MP David Blunkett? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owl Visiting Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 I remember being at that game, a young Alan Quinn came on late for us and lasted about 2 minutes before sent off for elbowing one of your players. Happened right in front of me on the touchline. We went down that season so that would have been the time when Blunkett and co slated Wilson in the press.

cider-manc Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Only been once before and looking forward to going again on Saturday. The only game was when Albert scored a free kick with a couple of minutes to go to put us 3-2 up. Wednesday went straight up the other end and appeared to equalise/ Should of had a penalty. I'm still not really quite sure what happened if I'm honest but we had a freekick awarded to us.... Wednesday players screaming in the referees face while we all looked around sheepishly feeling like we'd got away with one. We left singing about staying up with a fresh sense of optimism after a recent upturn in results. 4 games later we were back to losing and got relegated in embarrassing fashion....

Think it was Madine who had the goal disallowed, looking forward to Saturday, haven’t been there since the time we took 4.5k up there and lost to a last minute winner, didn’t the same thing happen at Forest that season in front of another 4.5k following or was it the year after when there was all that trouble in the wine bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strangely £34 now. It's gone up £1 over the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
