Sheffield Wednesday Post Match Thoughts

[howdydoo]

Dunno. Is Gary Monk a mate of Warneys?

Might have subbed him as a favour.

Fingers crossed, just saving his legs.

[millertop]

Do we know why Barlaser was subbed?

Probably to give him a break, not his best performance imo but great penalty

[and breath.....]

I hate watching us on the telly. I dont know what it is about not being at the match, but I'm just a gibbering bag of nerves. We we're 3 0 up with 85 minutes on the clock and I was convinced we'd lose 4 3.

But.... not this time. What an absolutely fantastic result that is. And be under no illusions whatsoever, despite their protestations, those Rotherham born pigs are hurting tonight. They DO care about losing to us. They are seriously hurting!! They look down on their hometown team and this kind of result just shouldn't/cant happen in their minds. Well, it has. So suck it up butter cups!!

Too buzzing to offer any meaningful comment on the match itself. I'll do that tomorrow.

Up the goddam wonderful, beautiful, stunning MILLERS!!!

I hate watching on TV especially when camera is more interested in dugout than the game 😡

First time we score more than one goal this season and it's against Wednesday. Sweet! And a clean sheet to boot. If we're honest some of us must have been getting a bit worried, only one win and that against a team which has the look of this season's whipping boys. Coventry aren't doing brill either so the Championship is obviously a big step up. Even Wednesday had their chances against us but hey, it's not our problem if they haven't got the players to take them. We'll just take the points. Onwards and upwards!

(Which one of you tried to watch the match by drone?)

PW's done something that no other manager has done for 45 years and he did it with considerably ease.
Another milestone is his impressive short career as a first team manager

In his post match interview Gary Monk looks a broken man.

The grip reaper cometh but hopefully not too soon as he's doing a great job

Considering the players they have and who they have recruited they should be doing a lot better

[rolymiller]

I actually felt sorry for Monk, he looked a broken man in that interview. They were piss poor though probably on par with when they were in the third tier in the 70s/ 80s. Chansiri has made their bed for them with the FFP stuff now they have to lie in it.

As far as we are concerned, beating teams below us or at least not losing to them will give us a good chance of staying up. So far so good... wins against the pigs and wycombe and a draw at forest...

Not sure what others thought but, for me, Miller was outstanding tonight. A menace he was at times, a real threat. Could have scored on around 73mins if he wasn't taken down. Hope he can maintain his form

Agree he was great very direct and his work rate is second to none, this guy and Chio on the right will cause teams problems...just gutted for Smudge not getting his hat trick

[MillerBill]

Good idea taking off Barlaser early in the second half,save him for Saturday.The game was over but we could still have increased our lead ,Dawson performed very well to stop two or three more going in.With Angus coming back and presumably no injuries from last night we can go to Stoke in high spirits.It's funny we played a lot better against Reading and lost 3-0.It's a funny old game.

Think Flojo is also getting up to speed. Looked a lot sharper yesterday and taking players on. Also won the pen.

We have the squad that will keep us up. we just need to play players in their natural places as much as possible and don't tinker with the team unless forced to.

My main concern is left back. The only danger they threatened last night was down our left hand side. (Arguably Reading also). We have had no serious cover for mattock for years. He has no pressure on him to perform plus he is getting older. For me a good left back is a must in the next window but how long have we been saying that?

A note about Wiles. Great talent but I don't think we need to necessarily have to keep shoehorning him into the side. His time will come..if we need to leave him out for a player more suited to that position do it...

I agree about FloJo Roly. Last night we saw glimpses of why he once fetched in excess of a £2m transfer fee. And it's not like hes thexwrong side of 30.

Talking of squads, did anyone else pick up on Sky's crappy commentator saying that "Paul Warne has a very small squad to choose from..."? Accepting we've left one position spare, we have the same size squad as every other fecking club in the division!!!
