I bet Sheff Wed can't wait for December to come round.

Impressive boycott at Hillsborough tonight. The place is empty save for the Boro contingent.

You either fill the ground and make it extremely difficult for the ownership week-in week-out with banners, chants, game interruptions, etc (will never happen with our fans - get behind the lads ffs, etc) or mass boycott (will also never happen for the same reason as the first suggestion). There isn't really an in-between that will get any attention.

Not that I think Venky's would care either way, and that's the biggest problem. Protests are only effective if it makes the owner(s) squirm. They just ignore it all as it's far away and has zero impact on anything they actually care about. It's tough to know what to do, but your typical crowd protests at the match aren't going to get their attention.

Yep, by now we should have all long realised that Ewood on a matchday is irrelevant as the will just isn’t there.

The only ‘squirming’ they’ve done in years was last season on the back of Glen et al’s social media/traditional media campaign - stick with that as it did get traction.  

[G Somerset Rover]

You’ll certainly get Pasha squirming if that ramps up again. Start another real campaign against him again, make his life and ‘job’ at Ewood a misery and see what happens. If we could somehow edge out their chief lieutenant the dominos could fall.

Would seem out best bet IMO.

Shane Duffy doing Shane Duffy things:

In the interest of balance, he did come out with a full apology after.

Regardless, there's only one knob, and it's the professional footballer getting into twitter spats with fans at the age of 33. 

[Mattyblue]

Calling people ‘gimps’ at 33.

 

[wilsdenrover]

Not knowing the difference between you’re and your at 33.

[DE.]

Love how the "apology" was blatantly written by somebody who has basic literacy skills as opposed to Duffy. Assume the club had a word with him and provided that statement for him to post.

What a gimp.

Filing for Admin at Sheffield Wednesday.

Like many football clubs, it has been trading at a significant loss for many years, with those losses historically funded by the owner. Mr Chansiri is no longer willing to provide that financial support.

"While the recent fan boycott has not directly caused the insolvency, it has increased financial pressure on the club. As a result, the owner has chosen to place the club into administration.

Preston doing what we haven’t been able to do for many a year, coming back from 0 2 to lead Sheffield 3 2. Has there ever been a worse time to support our team 😞

Shef Wed in administration. Deducted 12 points.

Yep, they are now in recovery, we are still on the way down

Coventry have a rocket strapped to them, 2-0 within 10 minutes

Sammie off again at Ipswich with a knee injury. He's not had a lot of luck since he left Ewood, shame to see.

Confidence and momentum everything in this league.

Coventry will take some stopping.

Lampard has done a terrific job.

I think the season he saved us did some real damage to him. He played many games with injections towards the end of that season.
