Wednesday with a huge 6 pointer at Birmingham today- both teams on 47 points tied for 7th. Lost our keeper and a CB in the first ten minutes, gave up a goal in the 45th, and were trailing 1-0 into the 77th minute. Gary Hooper scored an absolute bomb from 20 yards out, and then cleaned up a mess 2 minutes later and the Owls roll right up into a solo 6th place 2-1. I didn't even think my son was paying attention to the call (he was in the next room playing with dinosaurs), but when the second goal went in, I gave a yelp, and he yelled out "Gary Hooper!" Kid isn't three yet- I may be a bad parent.
Being a Red Sox fan for years taught me to fear the worst, and Wednesday fans have a similar outlook (although they don't take themselves as painfully serious). That said, it's hard to not feel optimistic. 3rd in the form table since the September transfer deadline closed. Long way to go in an unpredictable league, but I love my club and they're making a lot of us very happy right now.
E I E I E I O
It's up the football league we go
When we get promotion,
This is what we'll sing:
We are Wednesday
We are Wednesday
Carlos is our king
