Match Thread Sheffield Wednesday - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 20th Jan (7 Viewers)

[robbiethemole]

Plenty of cameras in the ground, should be easy to spot this tosser, BUT why didn't the stewards right close to it do anything???
The stupid part of it is Wednesday have black players on the pitch too, what the fuck must they be thinking about these neanderthals

Ben sheaf proved today he’s one of if not the best centre d midfielder in this division

sloppy couple of passes but he ran the game for the most

Robins still wishing he got us out of the deal to sign him do you think?

 

[procdoc]

This is my favourite response

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Think I’d rest as many as possible on Friday, feels like a game to get injuries in.

Wilson
Lats Thomas Binks Dasilva
Sheaf Torp
Simms Allen Palmer
Godden

Hopefully a forward in by then to play out wide.

Goalkeeper!!!

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.

I don't think there is any call for this. Shown yourself up as a tit. I've only blocked 2 members in the 9 years i have been on SBT. Well done on being number 3.

"palmer 4 times did actions pointing we are going down , he came in front of the kop doing this and laughing too , he could have caused a riot , if he did that at bellend road leeds im sure that would have happened , the ref who was appalling should have given him a yellow the 1st time he did it and told your off and reported if you dont stop , he just carried on doing it.. in a crowd over 28000 a lunatic or 2 you will always get, some grounds im sure some bellend would have even been on the pitch. you cannot as a player spend half the 2nd half doing hand gestures to the crowd . if some nutter has said something then he will get caught and banned but inciting a riot is simply not on. "


Shit take of the day award might need to change.

inciting a riot ffs

 

[Johnnythespider]

Clearly a wrong un, Emily was a lovely bloke

Emily, ffs autocorrect, Emlyn

Be a very heated fixture if we were to play them again. Thank god we’ve played them twice already.

Forget about them and on to the cup now.

Who is it we’ve got again?

We will absolutely dick them on Friday night

No excuse for racist gestures or chants. Think Palmer should leave the wind ups of the opposition fans and prove to be better than them. Ignore the fools. Football fans will always hate certain players. If it's just banter, best policy is to smile at them and stick the ball in the net. Racism is something all together different and Wednesday should be punished along with the fan(s) responsible. EUFA have precedents regarding this but surprised if much action is taken by our toothless football authorities. Don't forget, we are not squeaky clean. The EDL are very active in Coventry estates and are always stirring up anti black and anti Muslim sentiment.

you’re blocking someone for calling out racism and stating the club will be under the spotlight and I hope they get punished for what happened?

if you don’t agree with that my friend I’m glad you’re blocking me, what an idiot!

Every fanbase has a few idiots.....

Responding to a club tweet looking for a fight isn't a bright move

does he know Gary is spelt with one R

careful - @OffenhamSkyBlue might make you number 4

Anyway forgot he got through 95.minutes fair play Kasey!

 

[skyblu3sk]

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.

I read the thread and it's nowhere near as bad as you make out. One person suggested he could have made it up and then back tracked. All the others have condemned racist behaviour. The majority aren't daft.

you’re also neglecting twitter and other social media platforms where it’s currently rife - again not the majority but definitely more than ‘a few idiots’

Their forum seems balanced. There's far more negative tripe on Twitter. Even one of their main podcasts posted that he brought it on himself, got called out on it and hastily deleted the tweet.

 

[jordan210]

This appears to be a re accruing theme. yet no one has actually said what palmer did. odd

 

[MalcSB]

He was excellent for 70 last week

He was good last week, but there were so many times he was unable to win the ball and I was wishing he had a bit more height and a bit more pace. I suppose a bit like Wright or Simms.

 

[MalcSB]

Played really well today even the sloppy passes were further up the pitch and didn't cause much trouble.

Well, most of them were.

This by the way is the problem with the ‘wokerati’ at the minute

not offended enough to call out a black footballer being called a monkey, but happy to hide behind a keyboard and get ‘triggered’ because somebody else does?

I’ve said my piece anyway…

Agreed I think we just need to calm this down we are playing them again in under a week. I want the moron who did it to be banned and us to move on without the game becoming about one person. And I really don't want a whole fan base to be tarred by a Muppet especially when they aren't defending the Muppet in general.

I'm more interested in what got him riled in the first place.

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

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!

UTO

Mate - we were under the spotlight for the banners last week. 1 c**t doesn’t make a fan base - same as those two cunts who showed the Bradley Lowry photo.

unfortunately in all walks of life there’s multiple people like it - and Twitter gives them a platform.

 

[mark82]

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?

Maybe I misjudged your tone, but it came across as you saying it was widespread. We have more than our fair share of idiots too, as we saw prior to the Leicester game.

 

[skyblu3sk]

Twitter is a cess pit if you dig hard enough you could find any club having morons attached to it. I prefer to look through the forums to get a feel for a club. I think it could get blown out of all proportion for Wednesday when it is one moron.

 

[jordan210]

I find it funny that Wednesday fans are also blaming the ref. saying we had a 12th man. yet we had more bookings than them

Yeah.but then bizarrely is still replying even though the tweet was deleted.....

 

[skyblu3sk]

It's one or two and all are condoning racist behaviour. Yes there are some daft comments but overall a see a group of fans who don't want racism near their club.

 

[skyblu3sk]

I suggest you read it again.

I'd say the same to you.
