They also lost 4-0 at Home Park back in 2008 I think. I'm not sure why they are so shocked they lost yesterday to be honest.

I went with a Wednesday supporting mate (Sheffield born and bred). It was interesting to hear comments in real time from someone concentrating on the other team. He was outraged at their defence - in particular their left back who really looked like he couldn't be arsed. One incident at a throw in right in front of us had him fuming.... Hardie had a brief tussle then spun and ran down the line and the full back just left him go - he just couldn't be bothered chasing and Hardie created a great chance for us. As my mate angrily said Wednesday have some very skilful players but are less than the sum of their parts. They are not a team. There's something wrong in that dressing room. Moore has a job on his hands and needs to do some serious arse kicking. If and when he does they'll shoot up the league.
They actually have a pretty poor recent record against us, we beat them plenty of times in the championship years, more than they beat us. Not sure where the disrespect comes from.
I do remember the days of Palmer, Hirst, Warhurst, Shirtliff etc when they were a top-flight team, but that was a long time ago. Time to move on guys, you are just another team like the rest of us. Welcome to league 1

Yep as fans of Sunderland, Ipswich and Portsmouth can testify there are no easy games in this division. Wins have to be earned. They don’t come by divine right.
It's a strange but regular attitude of the apparently bigger clubs supporters as they work their way down the Leagues, enjoy their status as big fish, lord it over all and sundry, patronise the locals about "cup finals" and how they'll be raising their games, then whinge like two year olds when everyone they play do just that and beat them.
Now they learn how they'll have to raise their game to compete with Accrington Stanley. The beauty of football outside the top end.

Read some of the comments from there forum..
Wednesday yeah we're a big club in the 60s untill there players got done for match fixing.
There more famous for there ground then there team. Hillsborough and the disaster is the first thing you think of when someone mentions them. Don't think I would want argyle to be thought of in that way .
They had waddle and co in a early 90s but again they did nothing and got relegated from the premiership.
They just a bog standard championship side most of the time . Nothing special

If Sheffield Wednesday are so mighty, then how come we've beaten them more times than they've beaten us?
Argyle's record vs Sheff Weds: P41 W15 D12 L14

At the moment they're more famous for their financial irregularities and not paying their players.
I am of a generation who will always think of Wednesday as a big club, to be honest I think of them as being a bigger club than Sunderland, Ipswich, Portsmouth etc, on top of that they have like us a great name, Wednesday v Argyle sounds so much better than City v Utd. It was good to see a decent away turn out even if a lot of them were drunk (they had travelled a fair distance) and when you consider how little success they have had recently they are really well supported. Good luck to them and I am sure they will not be in this division for long.
Wednesday aren’t even the biggest club in league 1. Sunderland are a bigger club.
Totally agree about their name, it's a cracker. I don't think they're as big as Sunderland but to be fair their support is fantastic given that they've had so little success since that team of the early 90s. Their forum was very complimentary about our support last week when they talked about how many we took up to Hillsbough midweek in the Sturrock days.
