Different Gravy - Not just another Sheffield Wednesday podcast

Happy New Year folks!Here's part two of our Mid-Season Review - we cover the juicy last 10 players and run the rule of Rohl and his predecessor.PS There's even more silly after the theme at the end.differentgravypod@gmail.comhttps://twitter.com/gravy_pod

For Sheffield Wednesday this season (2023/24) has been one of contrast, the abysmal first 10 matches or so under grumpy, charlatan Xisco Munoz and the markedly better run since under German coaching whizz Danny Rohl. The players have had similar swings, some asked to do unfamiliar or uncomfortable jobs under Xisco then recast or recalled under Rohl's regime. To pick it all apart and gain some perspective please join us for part one of or Mid-Season Review, in which we run the rule over just over the half the players who have contributed this season and assign them school style grades (which schools don't use anymore).Part way through the episode we hit on a Meal Deal based grading system too, if that sounds like your sort of thing then please join us!PS Hang around at the end for something silly.differentgravypod@gmail.comhttps://twitter.com/gravy_pod

A timely canning of Xisco and our shiny new manager has brought the Gravy Boys out of their slumber. The title refers to the, subjective opinion here, awful KFC sandwich, or as Rich pus it a "nice sandwich in pooey bread". "Pooey bread" slice one gets into how embarrassed we were to even feel remotely optimistic about Xisco Munoz's reign and the false dawn of last time we broke Wednesday bread. And as a result the second end slice of poop loaf gets into the disappointing set of players who have helped give Wednesday the worst start to their football league campaign ever.But don't worry, there is some goodness in the meat and we can recall how to get giddy and overexcited as we welcome the striking and enigmatic Deutsche video analyst upstart, Danny Röhl, to the Wednesday manager position. Do Luke and Rich get into a series of dire stereotypical German impressions? Ja. Do we get carried away fantasizing about Röhl getting the club out on the Autobahn and whipping her into fifth?

Goodbye the 2022/2023 season - "you were a real one!"Hello the 2023/2024 season - "what's that smell? could you check your shoes please, I don't want that tramped all through the house, I'm not accusing you but it didn't smell like that before you arrived." etcDue to our questionable judgement we decided to sit down on the transfer window equivalent of Boxing Day and exhaustively talk through all the major events of a very busy summer. We love a gimmick so the idea was to rate everything on a 'Whelomoter' 5 point scale of Totally Underwhelmed (1) - Partly/Slightly Under Whelmed (2) - Whelmed (3) - Slightly/Partly Over Whelmed (4) - Completely Overwhelmed (5)Here's the list if you want to play along at home:Sacking of MooreReece James SigningManager search and Xisco appointmentXisco press conferenceFriendliesJuan Delgado signsAshley Fletcher signsPol Valentin signsDi'Shon Barnard signsBambo Diaby signsAnthony Musaba signsSouthampton GameDevis Vasquez signsStockport GameLamine Diaby signsHull GameDjeii Gassama signsPreston GameCardiff GameUSA Takeover/FakeoverMansfield GameJeff Hendricks signsJohn Buckley signsLeeds GameSeason aheadWAWAW, UTO, and thanks for listening!differentgravypod@gmail.comhttps://twitter.com/gravy_pod
