v Sheffield Wednesday (h) - 06/12/25, 15:00 k/o

[RoversTilliDie]

Sheff Wed will be up for this one, and probably bring a big crowd with them. We need to focus 100%.

[RoversTilliDie]

Does anybody know, how many tickets Sheff Wed have sold.

They have sold out initial allocation. I think an extra 1500 has been allocated.

Is he ready to push Hedges and De Neve do you think

Been pleasantly surprised with how Pratt has stepped up. Doesn't do anything he can't do, keeps it simple.

If hes not ready to push De Neve then there is something wrong.

A hearty amen to all that has been said- a must-win game, owls are L1 bound, etc. 

I look for the difference-maker- that would be Cantwell, if 100%. 

The guy we need production from- Ohashi. It’s been a month since he scored, vs Derby. 

The guy most likely to score: Gudjohnsen. The club did its work, getting this guy on-board. 

Prediction: Rovers, 2-1. I’m tired of fretting & catastrophizing every game. Can’t be anything else but a Rovers win.

Its a poor league this season and we have played some good football at times. We need more of the same and no silly plays

Gudjohnsen 2 Wednesday 0

It's quite simple for me after having seen Wednesday play several times this season.

Stop Bannon and a huge part of any threat they offer is nullified.

Sadly, I don't think it would take Bannan much effort to get the better of Sidnei Taveres

I have a horrible feeling about this one - when was the last time we put in a clinical performance when expectation was high?

A Club in admin versus a Club that are being run like one in admin. This match could end up like two bald men fighting over a comb.

I suppose if nothing else, if we get beaten, it will shoot holes in the "Where would we be without Venky's?" argument.

They'll probably do their homework on Gudjohnsen, that's why we need Ohashi, and others chipping in.

I expected a bit of a revival from the Owls following the Chansiri seats getting ripped out etc but it hasn’t materialised, yet

Will the further points deduction up the eff you EFL mentality and spur them on?

They really have nothing to lose and go into every game needing to at least try and win, which may slightly work in our favour rather than playing a team happy to sit back. Questionable subs and game management our biggest issue lately, not even going down the ref blaming road it’s pathetic, regardless of some shite decisions. 
 

Another 1-1 draw probably the most likely result although no use to either team, so we have to hope we can somehow fathom a 2-1 win.
