owl74 Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 Sheffield Wednesday are the Manchester United of south yorkshire, before you laugh here are my reasons, 1 All the other teams in SY hate us (just like MU nationally) 2 we are the most successfull team in SY (just like MU nationally) 3 we have the biggest ground and fan base, away following etc in SY I know all of the above points contradict the fact that at the moment we are rubbish but they are facts! Also to all the "we are the best team in Yorkshire Blades" who may say crowds don't get you points, well surely in the long run they do, bigger crowds, more money to buy better players higher up the league. So you know we will be back at the top before long be it this time or next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl74 Posted May 8, 2005 Author Share Posted May 8, 2005 it's common sense that (taking out teams with rich benefactors like wigan) a football club with more fans generates more money from gates reciepts and therefore can afford better players so eventually a large fanbase will drag you out of the mire. Yes I know we are in millions and millions of debt and are in the third division but this is due to mistakes at board and management level. Eventaully this will turn around. My original point about being the MUFC of SY is true everyone locally hates us cos we are the biggest club and no matter what division we are in we are still a scalp. i would also like to say that after watching yesterdays match I am very fearful of our playoff hopes.
