Owls in trouble

[Northumbiron]

Endangered species?

A mate of mine and his daughter are Owls. They are worried. Had a long chat with him on the phone last night. It’s bad!
Talked to my cousin who used to lead a fans group in Hull until he got poorly. He had some awful tales to tell.
Should the word ‘corruption’ be coming up quite so often in English football?

Sounds like you couldn’t give a hoot, however in all seriousness a very old club with loads of history, a real shame if they can’t pull things round, reality of modern day living catching up with football clubs?

‘A mate of mine and his daughter are Owls’

Sounds like a line from The Mighty Boosh

It attracts the corrupt Les. And inept gambling addicts.

I remember going to watch us play them at Hillsborough. Tram was full of Cocky Wednesday fans “looking forward to your cup final”

As much as yours when you end up playing Hallam and Stocksbridge in the near future.

What cup competition was it at Hillsborough about 20 odd years ago that we won in extra time or pens? McClean scored the winner I think? It was really late when it finished. Like about half ten. I remember turning and hugging a complete stranger after the winner. Limbs everywhere.

do you mean when Evans saved every penalty

[Deereyme66]

Yes, I think so. Were they taken down at the home end? It was a long night though so can’t remember it that clearly. There was a decent following and a good atmosphere. LDV Vans Trophy?

Yes! That was the one. Feckin great night. Thanks for clarifying

Was struggling to comprehend why I would have drove 100 odd miles for a LDV match. Think I was bit delirious with sleep deprivation having two young kids.
