A great first away day of the season, and I love that that I share these days with my parents.💙🦉 Lots to improve on, especially based on the first half performance, but created plenty of opportunities in the second half, and deserved the win. #swfc #UTO

Match 48 of 25/26 - WBA (H) First home win of the season, takeover complete and confirmation of no points deduction next season. It seems poetic to finish this season, and start next, on 0 points. Honolulu Wednesday atmosphere was fantastic; great to see so many happy people for a change! 🦉💙 #swfc

Match 47 of 25/26 - Oxford United (A) Typical Wednesday - just when you thought there was a glimmer of hope to get a win, we played the worst we've played in months. Too many were off it today; the only positive was the performance and goal from Will Grainger. Hope he's still here next season. #swfc

Match 46 of 25/26 - Middlesbrough (A) Another match where we deserved more. Poor back pass for the only goal and denied a clear penalty with the Boro player throwing himself on the floor to claim a foul, but we rarely get decisions.from EFL refs. Otegbayo distraught at the end bless him! #swfc

Match 45 of 25/26 - Charlton Athletic (H) The much anticipated first home win didn't arrive but the team played well enough and for most of the game it was enjoyable to watch. Up those three match unbeaten Owls 💙🦉 #swfc

Match 44 of 25/26 - Coventry City (A) One of the best performances of the season, and a point the least we deserved. Coventry have suffered like us, & I don't get the antipathy between fans due to a few idiots; I hope they enjoy the Premier next year, but today it was nice to spoil the party. #swfc

Match 43 of 25/26 - Leicester City (H) Another decent day watching the Owls. 💙🦉 Firstly a meet up with the @twwcast.bsky.social group for the final TWW run walk challenge with a pitch side visit and a final walk together around Hillsborough park. Then we somehow got a draw against #LCFC #SWFC

Match 42 of 25/26 - Stoke City (A) Another defeat but a good Good Friday. Defensively poor in the first half, but did well in the second half; their keeper pulled off a couple of good saves, and their defense threw themselves into numerous blocks. Fans absolutely class again. Happy Easter!🐰 💙🦉 #swfc

Match 41 of 25/26 - Hull City (A) It's strange given the results but that was another enjoyable away day and we got to celebrate a goal again! 🎉 Fans were absolute class. "Wednesday are massive every we go" 🎶 #swfc

Match 40 of 25/26 - Ipswich Town (H) A familiar disappointment eventually. Was expecting a heavy loss, but we stayed in the game and frustrated Ipswich until conceding late on when tired, which has happened so regularly this year. The relief from Ipswich after the first goal was palpable. #swfc

Match 39 of 25/26 - Watford (H) We rode our luck before half time and with more clinical finishing from Watford could've been 4-0 down, but we were minutes away from our first home win of the season. Showed great fight in the second half, and with a bit of luck would've won it. Ref appalling! #swfc

Match 38 of 25/26 - Derby County (A) A loss, but a decent performance. Amazing atmosphere in the away end; non-stop singing. Derby fans really quiet once they realised the 'party dying' chant was being met with indifference. Nice to know we've lived rent free in their heads for 5 years though🤣 #swfc

Liz Yates @lizyates75.bsky.social · 28/02/2026

Match 37 of 25/26 - Southampton (H) Another inevitable loss, but we celebrated a goal 🎉, and put in a battling performance in the second half. Fans were also really positive; maybe the confirmed relegation has deterred a few of the moaners, and we're left with the supportive hardcore again. #swfc

Match 36 of 25/26 - Norwich City (A) At 2-0 I feared a rout. Few chances created, but looked defensively more solid after HT, & good games for Emery and Ndala. Always enjoy a trip to Carrow Road; a nice stadium with a good fanbase, who've always been generous in their support to Wednesdayites #swfc

Match 35 of 25/26 - Sheffield United (A) Was dreading going and getting battered; but after a shaky start, we did ok, and great to celebrate a goal. 🎉 Relegation confirmed but we've known that for months. Blades can say what they like but our Owlets had them panicking in the second half 💙🦉 #swfc

A summary of The Barkley Marathons; an event I've followed for years, where the only updates are from in the know social media accounts. The race unexpectedly started yesterday, when the cigarette was lit & has a 60 hr cutoff. If this makes no sense, wait until you fall into the #BM100 rabbit hole.

Match 34 of 25/26 - Milwall (H) Inevitably lost again, but a much improved performance, and we scored a goal! 🎉 Thought Ingelsson and Kobacki had strong performances, and the whole team had more attacking intent. Just need a miracle next week now. 💙🦉 #swfc

Match 33 of 25/26 - Swansea City (A) A long way to go for an abject performance. A few decent attacks from the new loan signings, but defensively all over the place again. Made a weekend of it, by travelling down on Saturday, and lovely to see the sun today, but these away trips are tough #swfc

Match 32 of 25/26 (repeat of match 21) - Blackburn Rovers (A) First half an horrendous performance; second half at least they had a go for a spell, but result was inevitable as soon as Blackburn scored. A lot drier this time, but absolutely baltic, and a difficult drive home in sleet & snow 🥶 #swfc

Liz Yates @lizyates75.bsky.social · 31/01/2026

Match 31 of 25/26 - Wrexham (H) First game post Bannan. Wrexham weren't great and a bit lucky to get a 1-0 win. A couple of decent chances for Cademarteri; goal came from a break down the right where the young full back struggled all game. Great to see the sunshine for the first time in weeks! #swfc

Liz Yates @lizyates75.bsky.social · 28/01/2026

The stress of tax return deadlines at work, Bannan leaving, including an emotional day in Bristol on Saturday and now all these farewell posts and videos, and Dry January are not a good combination. 🥹 #swfc

Match 30 of 25/26 - Bristol City (A) Nothing important to say about the match itself; just another loss in an horrendous season. A really emotional day saying goodbye to a Wednesday legend. 🥹 Thanks for the memories Barry and good luck wherever you go. #swfc

Liz Yates @lizyates75.bsky.social · 20/01/2026

Match 29 of 25/26 - Birmingham City (H) Actually enjoyed quite a bit of that game. Defended well, worked hard & more threat going forward. Positive to not concede until 82 min. Really hope it's not Bannan's last game; he deserves to bow out in front of a full house, and lots missing tonight. #swfc

Liz Yates @lizyates75.bsky.social · 17/01/2026

Match 28 of 25/26 - Portsmouth (H) (missed Brentford in cup due to flu) Same old story; competitive for 60 mins without looking like scoring, then concede a poor goal & look shattered. I was more hopeful of a result today against a poor Pompey side we'd already beaten, but never looked likely #swfc

Liz Yates @lizyates75.bsky.social · 04/01/2026

Match 27 of 25/26 - QPR (A) Another tough watch and a long day. Up at 4:20am for 12pm KO, and at 5pm, still not home. Players looked shattered; played ok in patches but lost goals to mistakes when tired again. Away end unusually muted, but understandably so. At least I won £48 on coach bingo! #swfc

Liz Yates @lizyates75.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

Match 26 of 25/26 - Preston North End (A) Thought we started the game reasonably well, but went to pieces after the first goal, never really threatened and looked tired & defensively frail again. A great away following considering the circumstances and how inconsequential the matches now feel #swfc

I've always found New Year overhyped and much prefer Christmas, but it's lovely to have a decent break from work at this time of year. Today was the perfect day to visit the coast with my parents; cold but sunny, and Filey at its beautiful best. 🥰

Match 25 of 25/26 - Blackburn Rovers (H) Started shakily but the players grew into the game and earned a well deserved point. Massive congratulations to the young boys once again, and the older pros who looked out on their feet, but kept going. Special praise to Cole McGhee on his full debut. #swfc

Match 24 of 25/26 - Hull City (H) I was expecting a rout so I'll take that as a Christmas miracle; 2 goals and a deserved point for the young Owls. 🎉🥰💙 Great effort from the players once again, and nice to see them get some reward.

A busy day yesterday including parkrun and driving my parents to York and back for a lovely Christmas lunch with my brother and family. Yesterday's parkrun took me to 56 miles for @runup2christmas.bsky.social - great compared to my 50k target, but the knee is still troublesome.
