    ''Charlton, Huddersfield, MK Dons and the Pigs have yet to have any real injuries and if they do they will be really tested, we have lost 2 of our best players and managed fine.''


    Nope, we didn't lose our captain and one of our better players in Dale.

    just from reading that thread they seem to know very little about us.

    and to be honest i know very little about them.

    all i know is that we are top for a reason...we have the best footballing side in the division, plus the best away record in the country.
  • To be fair it is hard to know about other third division sides with the lack of media interest. They just react to it in a different way to a reasonable person!

    They also seem to think we play like we did against Orient & against them in September week in week out.

    Had a tenner bet with a huddersfield fan in our Leeds office years ago - said we'd score at least 3 goals against them at theirs. We did (it was the 98 promotion season i think) and he faxed a tenner down and never paid up. Yorkshiremen - Tight and miserable, the lot of em.

    Here's another perspective on that - I remember listening to Ranulph Fiennes, it was priceless:

    "I would be happy to take anyone on one of my expeditions, with one exception," he said a few years ago. "The only people I would not even look at are people from Yorkshire."

    ONE of the biggest League One crowds of the season is set to be attracted to the first v third clash at Hillsborough on Saturday.
    Early indications lead the Owls to estimate that around 25,000 will be drawn to their match against leaders Charlton.
    Tickets have been selling at the rate of 1,000 a day, and sales for home areas are exceeding those that were taken in the run-up to the recent visit of another one of the Owls’ promotion rivals, Huddersfield.
    Wednesday are asking fans to buy early if they want to be sure of getting the best possible seats.
    Charlton’s following is expected to be around 1,500, but their fans can also pay on the day so the size of their contigent will depend partly on how many of them do that.
  • No matter the score.

    You're playing Crawley next year, you're playing Crawley next year.

    I don't get the Hartlepool reference? 95% songs about us, 5% about them sounds good.
