I've got to admit we were awful today.When away supporters are booing the team after 1hr you know we are playing bad. We pinched a result today,the greatest robbery since the great train robbery.Team seems disjointed and Pederson has to take some blame for this. #SWFC #HTFC

Oooh look! Hidden away near the recipes & lifestyle crap is a tiny story saying that *yet again*, the UK economy grew "faster than expected" in the 2nd quarter this year. The 1.1% growth in 1st 6 months this year is still highest in G7, despite "experts" www.theguardian.com/business/202...

So Wednesday drew 0-0,despite being top of the table its the first time this season we have ended a game with a clean sheet. Louis Barry could have made a difference,we will never know. Play Stockport on Sat.,predicting a close game and I think we will come out on top. Predicting a 2-1 win. #swfc

Our highest loyalty doesn't belong to people or parties. It belongs to principles. If you wouldn't accept it from your opponents, you shouldn't accept it from your allies. Integrity is standing by your values even when your own group violates them.

Resting is not a waste of time. It's an investment in well-being. Relaxing is not a sign of laziness. It's a source of energy. Breaks are not a distraction. They're a chance to refocus attention. Play is not a frivolous activity. It's a path to connection and creativity.

Wednesday win 7-2,made a positve prediction, I thought we would win 2-0 lol.Better than I expected.I only want to make a prediction for the season after 20 games,its at this point we will get some idea of how they compare with other teams. BTW-Bradford who beat us 1-0 lost to Plymouth today. #swfc

William Curbishley @willcurb.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

I don't think at the moment there should be a reason to panic.I think what won it for Bradford was their defence.Whilst not panicking I think we could do with a decent central defender. No doubt there will be calls for Pedersons head but tonight the players have to take some responsibility. #swfc

Wednesday won.The result is a good boost for morale,this is why I didnt want a heavy defeat.The Bolton guy had to be sent off,still if I was Harry Gray I wouldnt pull other players shirts in future. Gray and a few others looked good on there debuts cant wait for 1st league game next week. #SWFC

Sheffield Wednesday play Bolton Wanderers today,I have to say that I am not too interested in this game.As long as the margin of defeat isnt too great if we lose.The league is by far the most important of the three main events this season. #swfc #CarabaoCup

I have looked at Ugbos past record and find it amazing that we signed him.It is absolutely awful. He played 55 league games over the last 2 seasons for us and didnt score a single goal and the guy is supposed to be a striker. Also played for 3 other EFL clubs and scored 4 goals from 46 games. #swfc

Glad to see we have signed Louie Barry from Aston Villa,a permanent signing as well and not a loan. Hope to see the guys compete this season.If we do get promoted I will look upon it as a bonus and not an entitlement. There is such a thing as over expectation.

It was found in the Thames in the 1800s & was probably a votive offering. Its sinuous lines and curves are testament to a master of their craft.

On that point - the planet is currently heating at a rate of 0.35°C per decade By that calculation, it would take us 170 years to add 6°C. Something that naturally took 5,000-10,000 years previously (So yes, climate has always changed - but NOT at this rate!) 9/
