Sheffield Wednesday

Quick question: The Fit and Proper Person Test has been mentioned a couple of times but what does it involve?
Is it a simple case of checking for criminal behaviour or does it check the intended owner's capability in the role?
For example could I buy a club if I won the lottery just because I've no criminal convictions or would I also have to demonstrate a significant level of business acumen?
I'm talking about standard procedure as I believe someone with a dodgy past was allowed to own Bury as the alternative was them going bust. - In the end they went bust anyway.
Have wondered similar myself, particularly when Bury went west. From memory, I think the incoming owner admitted he'd never run a football club but was going to give it a go. He'd been " involved" with 50 plus businesses in the past and 40 plus had been liquidated. Bar probably a bit low for "fit and proper person" then?
 
Owlerton has gone to the dogs, and both main Sheffield clubs promoted beyond their ability.

I remember in 1993 when some Wednesday fans thought they were on for the treble around Feb when Warhurst was bang in form.
I've still not forgiven David Hirst for his worldie goalkeeping performance for 80 minutes against us in 1990.

The bastard.

:)
 
I'm not sure he is, If we lost £24m we'd be breaching FFP rules again, our last set of accounts (21/22) showed we lost £7.5m

This could be Chancer saying what he has had to put in over the course of his tenure who knows.

It's going to get messy regardless

From one West Yorkshireman to another, I hope you find a light at the end of this shit-filled tunnel. Town and Wednesday fans are never going to be the best of friends, but I think anyone who purports to love the game of football would never want things to go dangerously bad for another club, especially when it could put said clubs' future at risk.

Except Nottingham Forest. They can fuck reyt off.

I've just seen this and you have to wonder at the mentality of such utter scum. I wouldn't want to work or socialise with such cretins even if they were mates they'd be fucking gone.

Two brothers from Rotherham apparently, already named. Jesus imagine being their parents.

Thanks m8,

I know a lot of Town fans don't like us due to arrogance of certian sections of our fanbase (which I get), but as someone who lives in Kirklees I have a lot of time for you guys, my best m8 at work is a Town fan and I always look out for your results.

Hell I even went to the 2011 Playoff final to support you :)

What goes through someones mind to say, you know what would be a good idea......

Scumbags hope the club ban them, as they're not welcome.

Happily been arrested and since they've been named I suspect the next few months will be fun for them. SWFC will have to give them a life ban hopefully, nobody wants scum like that supporting your club.

"South Yorkshire Police says a 27-year-old and a 31-year-old man are being held on suspicion of outraging public decency and remain in police custody."

What a pair of lowlife scum.
 
Pair of utter cunts. A lovely little child mocked like that, they should let the 2 twats spend the next month in Sunderland.Jermaine Defoe possibly my favourite non-City player for the way he was with little Bradley and his family

Absolutely correct.
 
Fair play to the Wednesday fans in raising a gofundme for Bradley.... they really didn't have to.

Every team has dickheads that follow them, it shouldn't represent the whole fan base (Leeds , Newcastle, Liverpool, and Manure are exceptions to this)....

Assuming no photoshop, the logic and sense behind this act is beyond anything I can comprehend.....

"Oh, how can we hurt you the most as opposing fans".... it doesn't hurt Sunderland fans, yes it pisses them off....

It hurts a family that have already been through so much emotional stress and pain, with their sons illness, and subsequent passing....

Nope....I'll never fucking get it....


Anyway....well played Wednesday fans....

2 brothers - 31 and 37....................FFS
 
Being reported that one of them has now been charged and will appear before Mags tomorrow so it seems like it was indeed a real image. Utter pond life.

And that football played in 93 was some of the best I have seen in England in 50 years watching. That said I never watch the scouse cunts or rags unless we were playing them.

The photo of Jermaine Defoe laid in the hospital bed with little Bradley (I think they’d both nodded off) genuinely bright me to tears.
