My old colleague and friend Jim Pickering how long have you followed the 'Owls'?
Ive supported The owls all my life. Went to my 1st game in 1966. I was 3 yrs old. so thats 51 years Why did you choose them as your team? I chose the Owls has thats where my dad came from. My parents have been married 65 years in July. Who is your favourite player to put on the old Wednesday white and blue? My favorite player of my time. I have 3. Roger Wylde. Roland Neilson. David Hirst. What is your most memorable time as a Sheffield Wednesday supporter? The early 90's are my best era of supporting the owls. You certainly have made people look up by the amount of money your owners have spent on the squad. In your opinion who has been your best buy? (Apart from Tom Lees) Best buy has got to be Jordan Rhodes. Who is the best player that has come through your youth system in the last two seasons? Best player to come through youth system is Liam Palmer. But watch out for the next star coming through. David Hirst son George Hirst. Already banging goals in for youth team and scored goal for England u18's. How do you think the season has gone for the club and do you see the top two changing. Do you still think that Wednesday could catch one of them ? The season so far has been okay. If some of the drawn games had been victory we could be pushing the top two. I think they still is a possibility of catching the top two. Who do you think will be in the playoff spots come May? Brighton. Reading. Huddersfield. Leeds. Which teams won't be able to avoid the drop this season? Rotherham. Wigan. Bristol City What is your most memorable game at Elland Road? 3rd march 2007. 3-2 Wednesday. What's your prediction for Saturdays game? 2-1 Wednesday Scorers. Hernandes.Leeds Rhodes. Wallace. Wednesday. Gonna be a good game. Good atmosphere. Good luck. We'd like to thank Jim for taking the time to take part in our interview and wish him and Wednesday the best of luck for the season. There's no reason two Yorkshire teams can't be promoted this season I suppose!

Can't predict this one ,, stopped doing that after Cardiff,, I'm hoping the speed were "supposed" to have comes good tomorrow because I think Wednesday are vulnerable at thier full backs , if we can get those killer balls into wood he will find them,, if not , Wednesday have some real fire power and could make us pay ,, tough game , tough call
