The Owls with consecutive league defeats now, following defeat at bottom of the table Forest Green this afternoon. After a long (20+?) unbeaten run. Not a great time to have a wobble, if that's what it is. Still in a very good position, mind....

Think they have to win the next game or they really are in a big wobble
 
Absolute dogshit today, they deserved to win.

If we play like that in the remaining 9 games then I'll be contributing to this thread again next season.

Half a season without a league defeat and we turn into Devon Loch (one for the kids there) in the final 2 furlongs.

If you do, who's going to be Foinavon; Ipswich, or Barnsley (can't see it being Bolton or Derby)?

Both I feel, one auto one PO.
Everybody has expected Plymouth to drop away all season but despite a little wobble in their away form they haven't.

They probably have the easiest run in of the top teams.

If we end in the PO's forget it, our results in them has been shite in the last few years

2015/16 Lost in final
2016/17 Lost in semi
2021/22 Lost in semi

I know, I think injuries to Windass & Byers will kill us if they are out for the rest of the campaign. We struggle without both.

Trust me bud the other 3 will have wobbles it happens .......... Barnsley are the one to watch but them like the other maybe one loss from a wobble ............think today was poor but he won’t allow it to happen again ......... I know there is still a way to go but got a feeling that the Cheltenham game is huge now ......... win it your back in the driving seat a loss could be really bad for you lot ........... still think it will be you lot and Ipswich though
 
Let’s hope this is the nadir of Wednesday’s season. They cannot afford to drop points.

No m8

Away tickets tend not to get down to my level of priority points, and you have no chance if it's somewhere like today with a small allocation and new ground.

Last away game I went to was Accrington in November, and that was via the waiting list.

Cheltenham should have been in Janaury so tickets were sold out then, Oxford on Good Friday sold out on the 2nd day which leaves Burton (small allocation), Bristol Rovers (midweek & small allocation) and then Shrewsbury (small allocation)

My Wednesdayites mates never saw today as an "easy" game. We share a similar mindset. Had a bad feeling about today myself even if Forest Green are out of their depth this soon. Today was the sort of result that we had occasionally at that level. Hope you get back to winning ways next game. Hate seeing Wednesday or my son's Derby at that level.

Barnsley probably. They're in great form. Wednesday pummelled them last week in the 2nd half and had them pinned back for long periods but they have the resilience in defence and quality on the break.

Eh? I thought it was "Wayne Rooney's Derby County", not "my son's Derby"?

Is it on telly?
The game at Barnsley was a proper humdinger, Wednesday should be loaded come the end of the season the amount of times you're on the box :)

Cheers m8, thing is this time of the season with teams fighting for their lives you get results like this, so some of the others may have freak results too.

Not on an official Sky channels but will be on IPTV via the iFollow service.

Unfortunately in the EFL the away team gets fook all from the Sky TV deal, especially in League 1 :)
