Globe Trotter Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Fair play for the amount they managed to bring down. Noticed a few clapping off Bobby when he went off including Tango man who was getting plenty of stick from the Dutch. Was chatting to a few Owls who came up from Lands End!

MrBibs Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 They always bring good numbers. Proper big club and always a fixture I look out for. @Bristol Rob - What was that all about with the fan being chucked out? Saw a big build up of stewards and police and then they all seemed to pile in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarnzFM Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Some young lad seemed to be going crazy, all his mates around him couldn’t calm him down and the about 20 police came and took him away, was a bit overkill - but that didn’t stop him, he was still struggling as they dragged him out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo88 Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 I chatted to a few, before and after the match, and they seemed like a good bunch. Those I spoke to after the match took the result in good spirits. I suppose they’ve got a bit used to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Balls Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Also have to appreciate the gallows humour of "We're Sheffield Wednesday, we're going down!" when losing 4-0. Good effort to even get to the game considering the transport problems in the previous 24 hours. Shame their team were so shocking. Adam Reach looked decent but why keep Boyd & Rhodes on the bench? After 2 play off seasons under Carvahal, you could understand if their fans were a bit peeved to say the least... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRISTOL86 Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Was certainly a stark contrast to our own when things don’t go our way. Still find it very annoying that 2000 Wednesday fans can see fit to stay til the end at 0-4 yet 10,000 of our own were on their way home by the time the ref blew up. Fair play to Wednesday, consistently amongst the best fans here year in year out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Self parody humour excellent 3 0 down and they are singing “ We’re on our way ..... made me laugh Great support for a distant game and with Owls form and performance fair play to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS4 on Tour... Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Top, top fans....after the game I was walking past The Avon Packet pub and an ‘Owl’ was outside on his mobile phone obviously ringing home...as I walked past he barked furiously into his phone “How can you say it was a wasted journey? Just because we lost doesn’t make it a wasted journey, I was down here supporting Wednesday” - I had to stop and applaud, he said it so passionately, a proper fan. Have always had a lot of time for Wednesday, I know we sing the song to wind up other teams’ fans - but today I totally disagreed with “Just like Bristol, your City is red” - not for me, Sheffield means ‘Wednesday’...and their humour has always been there, especially today’s “We’ve had a shot, we’ve had a shot, we’ve had a shot...” chant!

If opposition fans want to wander down Ashton Road taking the pis and insulting fellow City fans, often there’s only one outcome. And yes it’s happened on a few occasions this season. For some reason, a small minority of away idiots think they can get away with being dicks, but they soon realise they can’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw loads of police on Ashton Road and didn’t see any trouble, anyone starting anything in front of that police presence must be a bit deranged?!
