Different Gravy - Not just another Sheffield Wednesday podcast Dr Luke Gleadall and Richard Millar

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the (podcast) water, here's an unexpected delivery from Different Gravy. A run-in check-in and a real chance to catch up on all that's happened since Danny Röhl's appointment. We look back at the transfer window dealings, recent form, take a look at the wunderbar wunderkind himself, before making some sloppy predictions for the matches between here and the end of the season.

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.

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.

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? Natürlich!

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." etc
Due 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 Moore
Reece James Signing
Manager search and Xisco appointment
Xisco press conference
Friendlies
Juan Delgado signs
Ashley Fletcher signs
Pol Valentin signs
Di'Shon Barnard signs
Bambo Diaby signs
Anthony Musaba signs
Southampton Game
Devis Vasquez signs
Stockport Game
Lamine Diaby signs
Hull Game
Djeii Gassama signs
Preston Game
Cardiff Game
USA Takeover/Fakeover
Mansfield Game
Jeff Hendricks signs
John Buckley signs
Leeds Game
Season ahead

Part two of our Player Reviews effectively puts the amazing 2022/23 season to bed with a *spoiler alert* tear strewn finale. An exhausting, thrilling, terrible and wonderful season - typical Wednesday, as they say. Listen past the outro song for a little bonus treat. We also run our (latent) fashionista eyes over the new kit and sponsor.

Thanks to Mike Dee for this great effort -
Kick it!
You wake up late for training, Cam you don't want to go
You ask Moore to please? but he still says, no
You missed two crosses, and no footwork
You parry shots on target like some kind of jerk
It's not right, you're so shite, at your age
Stockdale caught you eating, pies, man he says, "No way"
Stocky hypocrite eats four pies a day
Man, sitting on the bench is such a drag
But you're banking crazy wages, so keep up the blag, busted
It's not right, you're so shite, at your age
It's not right
Don't step out on that pitch if that's the best you gonna play
I'd kick you out of S6 if I had my way
Chansiri busted in and said, what's that noise?
Dejphon you're just jealous it's the Different Gravy Boys
