THE MATCH

MONDAY 4TH MARCH 7:45PM KICK OFF

[b]LAST MATCH



Back to back home wins as we deservedly beat Brentford on Tuesday night. A goal in each half, both by Fletcher were enough as we won 2-0. Fessi was back in the starting line-up after suspension was he only change. Fletcher finished well after a long through ball by Bannan. Fletch made it two after heading in from Reach's cross after Hutch won the ball in the middle of the park. Brentford had a few chances late on but we saw the game out. The only negative was Lazaar going off injured and seems likely to miss the Derby.

THE MATCH




So onto the next game as our neighbors make the journey across the city. The Blunts are having an excellent season and currently lye 2nd in the table. Billy Sharp is there leading scorer with 23 goals, they also have ex owls Madine & McGoldrick who seem to be swapping as Sharp's strike partner. With the goal-scoring prowess they also have the 2nd best defense in the league only Middlesboro have conceded less. The game ended 0-0 at Bumhole Lane earlier in the season where we frustrated them with our defensive tactics and Dawson made an excellent penalty save too.

THE TEAM

Lazar wont be available so do we go with Iorfa at RB and Palmer LB or do we play Fox or Pudil at LB, think Bruce may go with Fox just for a bit of balance. The rest of the team just about picks itself.

That will be the team owlskev ! Can't see Bruce doing any major shuffling not with this game .my only fear is 4 in midfield and bannan overun like every other time he's played against the pork Fessi will be moving around in that midfield but he will also go missing now and then due to his attacking responsibility's. The only way I can see us balancing this out is if the defence play a high line of a back 3 and hector chips in with Hutch to protect floaty balls ,when this happens ! Got to press wilders pigs and be very carefull of the ball over the top (all be it apart from Clarke who won't play ! There strikers don't have any pace )

We are due a win and the number stats are in our favour like I mentioned after the bumhole lane game
And now wilder has more than met his match if he thinks he's going to win it by fighting think again Wednesday with Bruce are back you scum scrubbing c..unts

[Imre varadi]

I'm now seeing that we've given them extra tickets 4000 in total ! What a effing joke when they only gave us 2 ffs !

Who deemed this a good idea ffs! Extra revenue yes at 40 quid a pop but fme you give what you get that's a standard rule !

[Statesideowl]

Nice one, Kev.

We're the underdogs in this game for sure. It'd be great to win but can't honestly see that. Big shame to lose Lazaar.

No underdogs like Bruce said there is no difference in class in the championship ! There is consistency ! And wilders pigs will be shitting bricks at this very moment all to lose for them this time ! We are Wednesday and bigger than this little dogplop !

I was there for that with my dad SS. Fortunately/unfortunately I missed the final and replay since that May was when I emigrated here. Well it was actually a 6 month to 4 year assignment that’s turned into almost 26 years and dual nationality

Will never forget that goal, but also never forget my first derby game at Hillborough back in 1979!!!

I would play Fox rather than moving other players. We will need to watch their full backs and sometimes their CHs who like to get forward a lot. They play solid if unspectacular football and they work as a team at all times, we will need to match that to get the win!! I’m certainly a lot more confident than I was a few weeks ago!!

Will never forget that goal, but also never forget my first derby game at Hillborough back in 1979!!!

Story of my life really, I'd get a bye in a shagging contest , but I couldn't get tickets for that game having emigrated to Scarborough a few years before I did actually make it to the stain for the return fixture which, if memory serves me, was a bit of a damp squib after the fireworks of boxing day 1-1 TC
