I am getting back into the groove of Sheffield Wednesday having a good season right up to the last two months then missing out on even the playoffs (which they would bottle anyway).

1st division for ever, i feel

Big Dunc had his first Forest Green win against Sheffield Wednesday.

oh don't remind me!

It's been a few years since we've needed a second thread!

Checking in for the rest of the season, slightly different name to previous thread but I still think it’s clear where my loyalties lie 😆

looking forward to beating Manchester Reds on Sunday.

What a match last night.

Well done Chelsea. They didn't give up and they knocked the holders out of the Champions League.

Hoping for an Arsenal Chelsea final, but so many of Arsenals key players are injured now that it is going to be tough for us to beat Wolfsburg in the semis.

22 years ago today, we lost this gentleman.

gosh, really 22 years? 😔

Ashamed to say that I do not know who he is but my husband does.

Good looking guy.

Just linking this thread, hopefully it will get some more traffick

Love this picture. Our number 7s.

@YouOnlyCameToSeeEboue David Rocastle, right?

That's him. Legend.

22 years?! That is frightening .

Great player 😢

RIP Rocky

Damn. City tore us apart there (not that we made it difficult for them to do so in the second half).

Just switched on the Arsenal match to see Xhaka score. We taught him all he knows. You're welcome ⚽

So happy Palace got a win today! I'm an Arsenal fan, but DH and DC are all Palace. They've not had much to cheer this season! How the heck Palace are still 12th though?😅

Comfortable win in the end, although it was looking tricky for much of the first half.

Loved the bit where Ødegaard was standing over the penalty spot holding the ball and looking like he was psyching himself up for the penalty, and then when the commotion died down calmly walked over and gave the ball to Jesus!

♫"Top of the league, we're havin' a laugh"♫...

Yes. Wonderful header. He has scored more goals this season than his last 3 seasons added together.

So glad that he didn't leave. He is so important to us
