They don't seem happy on their owlstalk forum.  How's about a chant on Tuesday?  'Wave your refunds in the air' whilst waving £5 notes?

Are they retarded? They think we've done it because we are just moaning because its too expensive. The fact is they have broken the rules. They charge less in an area of the home end with same facilities. We don't do this, Wednesday do. They should realise this, either reduce the prices in the away end or increase the prices in the home end (as we did).

exactly, their argument is \"we paid 23 quid to come to yours, so you should pay similar at ours\".... our argument is \"home and away fans should pay comparible prices...\"

if their home fans were paying 60 quid, we'd expect to pay 60 quid, not 20 odd just because thats what they paid when they came to us...

Some retard is also banging on about how we only took 600 there last season. Anyone know the official figure? Sure it was over 3000. They are also claiming we charged them more than home fans for their visit to the Keepmoat.

God I hope we stuff them. They are fast becoming my most hated team. Just because of their delusions of grandure. Even Leeds fans arent this bad.

Oh it's a joy reading yon bleatings.

\"The view from the Leppings Lane Upper Tier is on a par with the North Stand.\"

See, when I first read that, I thought to mesen, have the poor darlings not realised that there are four great big inert blue lumps in your line of vision when you sit in the Leppings Lane Upper Tier...

Insert punchline here...

Wembley one is on this thread http://www.owlstalk.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=122792&st=90

Im looking again for the ones that says 600.

Ive tried to register to let them know it was more like 25k we took but their adminstrator wont let me join :)

Inbred retards. Jealous that their superior club is now in the shadow of a little pub team that 7 years ago was playing non league football while they were in the Premier League.

I wonder where he gets his figure of 6000 from that we took to Wembley. I also like how it is our cup fina. Such the interest that we've sold less tickets than we have took to a number of places this season.

no need to drag up the past what happened that day should be laid to rest, but the bitterness of the owls fans on there forum is rediculous why don't they just admit that they have been caught red handed trying to fiddle away fans and i hope all the other fans that have gone to swillsborough can claim some money back for there game and put them more in debt.

I see the deluded fowls on fowlstalk are convinced their gonna steamroller us about 5 or 6 nil on Tuesday. Its not a derby game either apparently.

tough game for us Tuesday, it is a South Yorkshire derby but i'll be honest it isn't a big game for me, we have one proper derby and that's United

So, your a team battling against relegation, against a team a couple of points above you in what is a six pointer and it isn't a big game? I'm not saying were your biggest game, but its hardly a mid table nothing game is it?

For the record, our biggest derby isn't against you either. For me, this season its Scunny.

Personally I think all this is going a little too far, i've never had a problem with Wednesday. Tickets were too expensive so they dropped the prices, most clubs would carry on regardless thinking they could do what they wanted, at least they listened to either

a. Rovers fans or
b. The football league

At the end of the day they seem to be doing what they can for their community i.e Childrens hospital sponsorship etc, so why is it suddenly de rigeur to stir it up with the S6 side and their fans?
Title: Re:Wednesday Fans
Post by: MrFrost on February 13, 2010, 09:12:44 pm
A quick look at their comments towards us on fowlstalk might answer this. They have a massive chip on their soldiers because they're not the most successful club in area any more, and because we've achieved more in the last 7 years what they have done in the last 20 years, they don't like it so resort to gypo insults and how we have crap support, and how we've pinched their fans etc etc.
Title: Re:Wednesday Fans
Post by: Sombrero on February 13, 2010, 09:27:55 pm
He said, she said.............he started it, no i didn't

Why have we done more in the last 7 years than they have in last 20? I am quite sure they will be jealous of our conference play-off win and beating Hull to the title the year after. They probably celebrated with the rest of the country as Hayter nodded it in at Wembley. We have never finished above them in the league, let's consolidate in this league before we start running around aiming inane comments at other clubs.

because its a south yorkshire and a big game for both teams in respect of league positions so really abit of banter on a forum isnt realling hurting anything it will just make for a better atmosphere for both fans at the game thats all i see it as

You misunderstood me, I meant in general I don't consider playing Rovers a \"big game\" Tuesdays game however is given out current league position, as was Blackpool, as will be Ipswich.

As for achieving in the last 20 years, it's not been pretty but in that time :

League Cup winners
3rd in the country
FA & League cup finalists
7th best in country x3

this isn't a dick measuring competition, i'm just saying what we have done, I fully respect Rovers resurrection and wish you well after Tuesday barring Donnyrover82

Yes your right. We should pay Wednesday the respect they deserve. We really shouldn't be talking down to such a big club should we?

Post by: MrFrost on February 13, 2010, 09:48:03 pm
An example of a clown on folwstalk:

\"My daughters friends all went to donny today as did most of thier school......free tickets were given out all over the place.....my girl is an owl and we burnt the free ticket at her suggestion......made me well proud she did......told her friends there was no way she was setting foot in that ground unless we were playing there

Conisbrough Northcliffe Comprehensive is the school (new name Dewarenn Academy) and they have over 1000 pupils

Wonder how many more schools in the MASSIVE BOROUGH were free ticketed ?\"

He claims almost all of the 1000 pupils at this school attended the game, as well countless others. They also care that little about us that they actually burned the free ticket and made a point about doing so.

Poor misguided fool

Up to 10 SWFC fans on a forum slating Donny hardly represents the views of all the Wednesday fans.

Up to 10 DRFC fans on a forum slating Wednesdays hardly sums up all the Donny fans.

Take it as it is. Banter by a few

its all good as long as nobody goes too far like donnyrover82 did about the disaster thats just wrong, i like the banter fink its good for the game i am surronded by leeds, blunts, man u, everton, dingles all sorts at work and we are always winding each other up it just adds spice to the game lets hope for a good game tuesday and three points from the fowls thats all we want
Title: Re:Wednesday Fans
Post by: MrFrost on February 14, 2010, 02:41:53 pm
But we're just a little club. They don't care about us. Our attendances are only made up of free tickets to schools anyway. They think that much of us they are proud when their daughter requests a free ticket to be burned. Bless 'em.
Title: Re:Wednesday Fans
Post by: Mr Croft on February 14, 2010, 04:14:37 pm
They keep calling us a Tin Pot club, Tin pot fans, OUR cup final, but who seriously are the fans moaning about attendances because were not fetching many? It was our cup final in league one, when we could finally compete with 'Yorkshire's Finest' and we were beaten that day :(

Since then we just cared about Sheffield Wednesday as a Club that we wanted to beat, we have done that twice in a year, and thus we do not care about them anymore. For me we need to somehow overcome Barnsley's slow but surely domination over us and Destroy Scunthorpe as far as Rivalries go this season, since both our meetings with the Iron have ended 2-2 with the away side leading 2-0, we do need to find a winner as they beat us 2-0 in the last league victory over the 2.

So actually I think its Sheffield wednesday's cup final on Tuesday, not ours. Although I will still love to see us sell out on the day and go a goal down and comeback to slaughter them. Consider it a Bonus if Lewis comes off the bench to score the winner and nuts Sharp in his celebration :)

i was on there the other day i thought it made good reading really kept me entertained for a while, fair enough they are in a good run at the min but they think are unbeatable, some of our fans do but the fowls go to the extreme, it seems they have had abit of company from some rovers fans over the past few days aswell

Going back to fowlstalk. The Wednesday fans are now claiming that our population is only 69k, therefore we have a brilliant average attendance in relation to the towns population. Forgive me, but isn't the population of Doncaster nearer 300k?
Title: Re:Wednesday Fans

Doncaster - 67,977

I live in Kirk Sandall, which presume is the Borough population of Doncaster. So their argument (however good it sounds) is flawed as I presume Doncaster only covers the town centre areas.

going back to my earlier post, with our current defensive situation...maybe it will be 6-0 to the owls after all.
