SWFC fan here. Just want to apologise for the absolute scum racially abusing your player Palmer. The BBC Radio Sheffield phone in is full of our fans saying the same. These idiots are not welcome at our club and should be banned for life. No excuse.

As for the game, you have a good, smart team there. Miles ahead of us in terms of quality. That said we could have got a point with that late chance and we worked hard.

Good luck for the rest of the season, your fans were the loudest we’ve had all season. Makes a change to see you doing well after the absolute nightmare you’ve had the last 20 odd years.

Hopefully we’ll be able to compete soon!

What a beautiful win that is today. Under pressure now we’re 6th and delivered. We are serious

It's actually massive, that game had so many potential banana skins in it with the state of the pitch and the weather, a big crowd in a hostile environment. I don't care that it wasn't pretty, it was hard fought and gritty.

I just hope the cup game doesn't turn nasty now.

 

[hill83]

Palmer has been at the crowd all game

I’d like to call back to this. Was going to say it wouldn’t surprise me if it was racist stuff but bottled it as I’d have got jumped on on here

Who palmer ???

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Good value for the win but made it a lot closer than it needed to be with some questionable defending. Front row seat for Sheaf’s goal, gloriously taken.

 

[hill83]

Who palmer ???

Yeah, few words exchanged with a teenager early on in the first half. And a few other bits here and there. It’s not like him so I assumed something was said to him but bottled saying it. And then 15 minutes later there we are.

And don’t say I wouldn’t have been jumped on saying I’m jumping to conclusions and talking bollocks if I’d posted what I wanted to say.

Some terrible takes on Twitter / X, but did find this mildly amusing.

Maybe Tavares for Godden, but I think throwing random kids in is a recipe for disaster. Will be interesting to see what team they put out as the league will be more important to them too.

Tavares He needs to go on loan to find a new club for the summer.

Palmer got called a Monkey by a Weds fan. According to quite a few Wednesdayites in their cop.

Fair play, although looks like it’s a common theme running through certain sections of your fans - at least twice this season plus mocking a dead baby, and questions about Darren Moore leaving for similar reasons?

I, and I assume many on here, don’t blame the majority, and fair play for coming on to try and fight your corner, but it’s not just one fan and one isolated incident.

The championship will be better off without your Sunday league quality pitch and disgusting section of racist ‘fans’ - the spotlight is on your club now and I hope you get what you deserve.

 

[procdoc]

Hahahahaha shut up you fucking melt

You’re clearly part of the problem with comments like this. Get in the bin

 

[mrfr]

Hahahahaha shut up you fucking melt

Which part of that post did you disagree with? Just so we’re all clear on why we’re blocking you.

Come on mate, I live in Yorkshire and can absolutely say that this will only be a very small minority of morons.

 

[Boicey]

Their forum is knee deep in ‘he made it up’, ‘he abused disabled fans’, ‘he dished it out but couldn’t take it’.
I used to think they were a decent traditional club bunch. Now they can fcuk right off.

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

Oops, this wasn’t well thought out was it

 

[shmmeee]

Tavares He needs to go on loan to find a new club for the summer.

We’re really short of wide forwards. Hopefully we get one in and can let him go.

Think he took a bag of shit on the pitch with him and threw it at the fans throughout the match

Fair play and thank you.

Think some of the anger directed at Owls is a bit OTT, in exactly the same way the we got it in the neck last week for flag-gate.

Small minority of cunts are always going to exist- what we shouldn't do is blow it up even further.

Isn't it good to hear that once again - our away support is getting the plaudits? Across the 92 how many teams support get this kind of praise everywhere they go? Pound for pound the best fans in the pyramid.

Like all of us I think.

Minority, possibly… (and I’ve already said it’s not everyone)

‘Small’, less likely…

doesn’t matter if it’s only one though, that’s one too many, and an attitude like this doesn’t help unfortunately….what’s your issue with my post otherwise?

Fair play. Sensible post. Makes a change from the usual excuses fans come up with for losing.

 

[Ashdown]

Good result today, not our best performance but the pitch and conditions were awful. Sheaf was class. Wednesday need to teach their players that you can’t tackle from behind anymore.
I’d personally give Kasey a rest on Friday, a reappearance might detract from the objectives of progression. We don’t need to get in a scrap with them, just play them off the park….again !

its like Sunderland, the longer it goes on the more bizzare the accusations get.

Fantastic post, top lad !

Wasn't at the game but even if palmer had been goading fans no need for the shit he received. I thought we were lucky to win today as you played well.
