    The reason I hate them above all others is that ever since i went to my first away game at Hillsborough, a league cup tie in about 1982, Wednesday have been fortuitously beating us. They’ve had every kind of spozzy win possible. That league cup game Barnsley had 3 perfectly good goals disallowed…. and it has just gone on and on.
    Since then, winning goals by players who should have been sent off, our player sent off for trying to evade a 2 footed challenge. Stonewall penalities waved away, goals in off two deflections, last minute winners when time is more than up.
    To go with that you have the most deluded, attendance- obsessed fans alive. Which is funny because they’re not even the best supported team in Sheffield! In league One they were the third best supported team.
    I can get over Leeds, Sheff Utd, Rotherham, Huddersfield and Donny - but Wednesday I cannot stand.

    Having watched Werner's performance against Tamworth, I shouldn't imagine Tamworth would want him, never mind Wednesday.

    That is true. Most times I’ve seen him he’s been all pace (a lot of it to be fair) but nothing else. Still think he’s a bit out of Wednesday’s league though!

    I hate them because when they scored in the last minute when Jim O'brien was faffing around in this own box I booted the seat in front and broke my foot

    Also, Rohl is doing ridiculous job. Its staggering how Chansiri keeps doing this.

    This is precisely why I was dissapointed rather than dispondent that we didn't beat them at Wembley. We were never going to beat them 3 times in one season.

    I agree those late or even last minute losses there at Hillsbrough, were always hard to take.
    And I think the one in the Wilson relegation season, when Frimpong was sent off on his Tykes debut, will always annoy me the most.
    That's because I firmly believe that 'other things' conspired against us that day at Wembley, I'm convinced of that!.
    Regarding us never being allowed to beat them, especially in a Wembley Final. And it would have been for the third time that season.
    And I don't blame their team or fans for it, even though yeah they can be annoyingly deluded sometimes.

    Funny how although they'll tell you that arnt bothered about us they seem overly ecstatic when they beat us. Even though some of their more lucid fans will admit some of the decisions in their favour are dubious at best..
