Title: Not that we really need cheering up but..

check out the Wendies forum, its hillarious.

This was one of the nicer posts   :silly:  

I went to Hillsborough last night. I had never really believed the hype about Doncaster playing 'total football' but, first fifteen minutes apart, Wednesday were completely out-classed by what was a brilliant display. This is a major setback for Alan Irvine in that it wasn't Newcastle or West Brom ripping us apart, but an unfashionable, neighbouring small town club with such paltry support that they couldn't even fill two-thirds of the Leppings Lane top tier. The level of local humiliation was tangible with thousands and thousands of Wednesdayites having left the ground with twenty minutes to go. How Irvine lifts the team for a major relegation battle against Ipswich on Saturday is a massive test for our new boss.

Clearly Doncaster lack the consistency to play like this every week or they would be runaway leaders of the Championship but Sean O’Driscoll must be congratulated on creating such an entertaining side on such modest resources. Wednesday never had an answer to their talented five man midfield.
