Behind Enemy Lines: Sheffield Wednesday (H) - GrandOldTeam

Everton continue their 2021 FA Cup Campaign on Sunday with a home tie against Sheffield Wednesday fresh off of 12 days rest after an important victory at Molineux in the Premier League. Everton, of course, faced off against the Owls in the Carabao Cup last season at Hillsborough, parading to a...

Mad how their new one looks so much older in design than their old one

Apparently it's what the fans wanted.

But the 1973 and then 1999 badge was always iconic.

Football began for me in '97, so that badge was always a classic. The 2016 one is just plain ugly.

Sad state of affairs when Barry Bannan is your best player... was absolutely average in his short stint in the Premier League with Aston Villa (which i've just googled and was 5 years!).

I'm shocked they haven't came under more pressure for their very dodgy Kit Manufacturing/Sponsor deal. Sponsored by Chansiri, who hasn't owned a business for 4-5 years, it's like Moshiri selling his business and sponsoring us. Manufactured by Elev8, who if you gooogle, have no record of sport manufacturing, and were created by... Chansiri. They're about to bring out a sports kit, but you don't really see Lucozade making Brighton kits, do you?

Seems a decent bloke, sees us winning Vs Wednesday and finishing 6th...which may not be too far off the mark.

I have a feeling in me water that if we do a cup run and finish 6th...hands up who would've taken it at the start of the season? Me for 1.
We'll see it...and not for any reasons of false expectation...as a disappointment on where we could've been...all a bit Bullseye, here's what you could've won -ish
Just on the wrong side of fine margins, twas ever thus.

That 1973 crest will always be their best and, ironically, it's probably their most 'modern' and recognisable one in British football.

Read your post and thought oh no they've got rid of that great badge. Saw the post below and I was thinking of the badge they stopped using in 1995. Sad that they've fallen that far off my radar really. Hopefully sunday is not the start of their rise back to prominence.

If we get Europa, and not the Conference League that'll be a huge coup, as the Europa is actually going to be a proper competition next year.

And a huge challenge

Good luck to the budding young journalist aswell!

The 73-95 crest always reminds of collecting panini stickers.
