VIEWS FROM THE DRESSING ROOM
Sheffield Wednesday manager Gary Megson told BBC Radio Sheffield:


"We'd got the game won going into injury time, it's a fluke the first goal, but after that you make sure you get something from the game.

"All it was, was a simple ball thrown in from wide, I would expect us to header it and if not I would certainly expect us to get the second ball, but we've switched off when there's got to be a knowledge that you don't switch off they've got the momentum.

"You know where the ball's going and you've got to win it."


Actual views from the dressing room

" **** me I hate this place" :lol:

Wrong - he was atrocious.

He works hard but has zero quality. He lost the ball all game; and most importantly for their goal. He is useless.

But don't let this detract from the amazing result we achieved today - they were all class.

Beevers and Peterlin are my new heroes.


Paterson, Sadler and Butler were to blame for their goal. It's all too easy to blame Taundry for everything.

Richards in.

Cant forget Macken, we actually had a player to build attacks through, and he coped well against high balls against bigger centre halves that can barely be classed as "footballers".

Lets hope he stays fit, suprised he lasted as long as he did. Although we must thank the Wendy scum for allowing the players to have a few minutes break and re grouping ay :mrgreen:


Also, did anyone see Butler when we scored? Butler is a saddler deffo :mrgreen:

It sounds like they have a lot of decent fans, too, thank goodness. What have they said about their TEAM'S performance? Were they realistic about it or did they "Megson"? :?:

Taundry was very good defensevily in the first half, and in the second half had no one to pass too half the time.

He wasnt brilliant, but for fudge sake. He was a long way from "atrocious". This lads doomed before hes begun with you. If he was Spanish you lick his sack. He also ran his bollocks off, along with the rest of them. We were solid as a well built conservatory on the right with Taundry and Beevers.

Of course, its a crime to say anything positive about WFC. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

Oh another thing from yesterday, who the hell employs the retards in the kiosks :roll: :roll:

Haven't you guys realised yet that there are no shades of grey in Saarland's world? Everything is one extreme or the other; nothing is ever "average". He is UTS's principal exponent of the use of hyperbole. Players are either "awesome" or "atrocious".

How on earth he expects anyone to take seriously a doctorate thesis which is the product of a closed mind, I do not know! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

They won as a team, just like they lose as a team. Taundry certainly contributed more than the peed up sponsors MOTM Wacka, who said to me after the game "i thought my kicking was excellent" :D

Just had a gander at Sky's highlights. Chambers punches Macken right in the face during the celebrations for Manny's goal. It's quite funny.

A tremendous result of classic Walsall vintage. Sorry I missed it, as it sounds like it sits up there amongst some of the best league games I have enjoyed over the years! UTS!

Is this the same Matt Richards who can't get a game (only started 11 times) for Shrewsbury in a lower league who has only scored one goal? :lol:
