Sheffield Wednesday were awful.

Could barely string 3 passes together.

Which makes losing to them at home even worse.

How bad is that?

A team missing tons of players who have had points taken off them by every team below them right now.

They just beat us at our own ground.

You absolutely know Heck is a junk manager

I absolutely know TC was a junk manager

I don't think any spin on facts is going to change our minds.

On a freezing snowy afternoon, probably the coldest I've felt at a game even though I had numerous layers of clothing on as I generally do, we were beaten by the worst team I've seen at ER this season

Positives

One of the best well worked set-piece moves I've seen from a Leeds team which should have been buried by Ekuban.
Forshaw our best midfielder by a country mile
Grot's first goal
Happy with our goalie

Negatives

Beaten by one of the worst sides I've seen
Errors for both goals conceded
Pennington a second rate CB
Ekuban couldn't hit a cow's ar*e with a banjo
Choose too many wrong options all over the park
Rarely shoot on goal

7 Peacock-Farrell
6 Berardi
6 Jansson
4 Pennington
5 Pearce
8 Forshaw (MOTM)
6 O'Kane
6 Alioski
5 Hernandez
5 Dallas
5 Ekuban
Subs
7 Grot
6 Lassoga
5 Phillips

We were the better for side long periods of the game. Wednesday were woeful but somehow got lucky due a couple of defensive lapses, you could say they were more clinical in front of goal, We handed the Owls three points on a plate :(

They looked like a pub team in the first half making mistake after mistake and not looking interested. We had all the possession and created chances but composure was lacking in front of goal and some of our passing left a lot to be desired. Forshaw and Hernandez were the driving force but balls in to Ekuban and Alioski were wasted as there control was poor.
Second half much the same until Wednesday had what seemed to be their first attack and it resulted in a goal. Hecky made changes and got the leveller and I thought it would end in a draw until Pennington had other ideas... another dismal day at ER and a cold one.
Wednesday walked out of ER with three points they didn't deserve Rich :(
