Match Day Thread Sheffield Wednesday v Southampton, 04/08/23, 8pm, Sky Sports

I'm no spring chicken.

 

It's a funny old game, so I'm led to believe.

 

We had 5 shots on target and won 6-0
Other goal was an og

 

And we're only 3 points above the relegation places!

 

For a combined 142 yards, surely teams won’t be standing off us this much in the future?

 

I think we're pretty well equipped to break a press. Will be very interesting to see.

 

He's perfect for Russball, a great passer with good vision.

 

Was there a player named as our Player of the Match? I have breezed through many posts and can't find it mentioned. Echo I believe gave Che 8 and Smallbone 8.

 

Id give it to smallbone personally, thought he ran the show

 

We thought KWP and Smallbone
I think JWP was v good too but lots of small interventions that dont always get noticed

 

How come we’re above Blackburn, Leicester & Norwich when we all won 2-1? Thought it went alphabetical? Obviously not?

 

I’m gonna hazard a guess that it’s due it being an away win

 

It goes by the amount of completed passes....

 

Number of away goals

 

So what is the actual pecking order now then. Obviously pts, then GD? then …

 

Then goals scored, then goals conceded, then away goals.

 

Then after that presumably it's alphabetical, as Ipswich are above us having won 2-1 away?

 

My second team ( I know, I know ) are Mallorca. I live here, I'm a season ticket holder. As you probably know it's not goal difference but head to head results.
In the two legged play off semis if you draw, the team that finished higher in the league go through. We beat Albacete, who's come 3rd, two nil at home and then I went to the away game. A small Portsmouth like **** hole in the south east of the mainland. We went one nil down in about 20 minutes and nobody knew that if they scored and it was 2 2 on aggregate if there would be extra time or not. I must have asked every one individually of the 1000 travelling fans. The most stressful game ever, which we ended up losing just the one nil. Fantastic day out!
I still don't know the rules.

 

Am in Mallorca in September. Usually go to puerta pollensa (sp?) but off to a child friendly hotel in Sa Coma this time as we will have toddler with us. Was room for me with family, but strangely I appear to be booked in a separate apartment. She who pays the piper call the tune
