I'm on Sheff Wednesday in the steel city derby. My only bet this weekend.
United had started well but i think they're probably about to find out how difficult The Championship can be. The 0-1 home loss to Norwich last week could be the start of a few losses. After a cracking season last season things are starting to look bad off the pitch. The fans are playing up stink home and away, with violence at matches at Grimsby (July), Middlesboro and home to Norwich last weekend. The manager also getting sent off.
For a team that did so well last season to win League One by a distance and to start this season well, they're not coming over as a happy, together club that's going places.
Wednesday made the play offs last season so they know what it's all about. They're 5 games without loss at present.
They would of been above United on goal difference if they hadn't of conceded a 95th minute equalizer in Cardiff last weekend. They'd won their last 2 home games previous to that, too.
I've normally an equal respect for both clubs and it'll probably be the only game i make a point of watching this weekend, but i strongly fancy Wednesday for this. Yes there's the derby factor and the draw is a possibility but with the home advantage and the experience, i think Wednesday will carry on from where they left off last season.
It looks a smallish price, but is it?
