This site probably needs no introduction. I'm not a football fan, but I've heard of Sheffield Wednesday.
They even have their own website http://www.swfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/ClubHome/0,,10304,00.html
which I would link more neatly if I knew how... sorry :rolleyes:
So... userscott and I were in the area and decided to give it a go.
After a fair bit of mooching and several "I'm not climbing that!"s (from me) we got in.
Actually, I quite like football, just not the crowds of fans, so sneaking around an empty stadium was kind of fun.
Oh, apart from the almost total darkness; security patrols and the young couple having an intense
relationship crisis immediately below our roof access....for forty, yes forty long, silent minutes.
With userscott's patience being tested to the max we waited in the shadows.
Finally they left (together, phew) and we moved on up.
Photos are pants but here ya go:

I have a blade of grass from the hallowed turf should anyone want it, otherwise it's on e-bay tomorrow.
Thank you for reading :D
