I dont think we have been bad at home, we have had 2 clean sheets in both cups aswell. Away from home we have conceded 4 in 2 games. I think tonight we will change things a bit.
We conceded two sloppy goals v Scunny, we've been awful away as well
I just think the team we are going to put out tonight will be stronger than Wednesday's. I predict they will set up defensive minded which will play into our hands if they do as our attacking (collective as a team) is the biggest improvement over last season for me, where we now look like we can score every time we do so.
Lot of mixed opinions. Personally I'm nervous and expect a very tight game. Expect Wednesday to work very hard defensively and put the onus on us to make the initiative. This will be our first home game of many where teams will take that approach, so interested to see how we will react.
I'm hoping that Semedo has not been given a pair of 'Billys Boots'. I think its gonna be tougher than people think. That said 3-1 to us - BWP - Green - JJ
Should we lose, then it will be interesting to see how this team responds. We have only just started the season so we have plenty of time to make mistakes and lose the odd match. What is important is that the team and SCP learn from these mistakes and that we support the team during the transition. Exciting times ahead but we still need patience.
Please just tell me that CP will not allow us to try and defend the last 15 minutes this time. We are at home and must at least keep someone with a bit of speed to stay up front, no last minute away goals please. We also need to do better against set pieces, not asking much am I ?
I think we'll start very quickly and hit them hard. Two quickish goals and then it depends how we play. If we go into our shell it will be nailbiting but if we continue to push we'll win easily. I'll go for the latter so I think at least a 2-0 win but it could go the other way as well. Who knows with football. Whatever the result, it will continue to tell us whether we are real contenders or still just pretenders.
Can't see a nil nil - we have goals in the side but can't see us keeping a clean sheet. 3-1 to us and we generally zip the ball about and demoralise Wednesday and expose Semedo's lack of ability.

Nervy funish Docherty heading everything away ... Some sparkling play from the midfield Danny Green and Jackson to score ...
I predict 1-0 to us and hoping that we dont get all camera shy.

IF we win and win well tonight I might start to believe a bit more, its still nervous optimism at the moment.
Personally think this will be a tough test, I predicted Sheffield clubs 1 & 2 this season and will stick by that.
Draw tonight.
Will give Jose a clap but certainly not a returning hero nor a money grabbing **** in my eyes.

Nicky Weaver has gone to pot since we parted company...
Not optimistic as this is my first live game this season, and I always seem to miss the good runs. 1-1.
I feel we have the talent and the leadership needed now to silence the Owls 2-0 (BWP,Taylor)
Ive gone for that with Taylor 1st goal. 260/1 I think. Dont expect it to happen but you never know. Worth a quid
