If an England player shows this level of skill and class in the summer social media would have to close for a day. What a player.

Incredible support!

One potential thing to think about - if the new owners carry out renovation works in the next year or two that temporarily reduce capacity - it may be very difficult to watch a match at Hillsborough without a season ticket.

There seems to be a lot of confusion on the SWFC zero point ruling when comparing to the zero points Derby also received.

Both Clubs paid/are paying 25p in the £ to unsecured creditors.

Derby’s owner completely wrote his debt off. The Wednesday owner was made a sizeable offer.

Derby paid 25p in the £ and left the tax man owed £10’s of millions (EFL Insolvency Policy directs 100p - discretion shown). Wednesday are paying off all owed (100p in the £) to HMRC.

I’m struggling to square why some feel Wednesday should get more than Derby got for exiting Administration when the shortfall to creditors is so much less in the case of SWFC?

Furthermore, the shortfall against EFL Insolvency Policy is also much less in the case of SWFC.

Wrexham POTY Josh Windass is prepared to leave this summer.

Former club Rangers hold interest, while the player has made it clear he would prefer a move to the MLS. #NashvilleSC, #OrlandoCitySC and #CharlotteFC are his preferred options for a move stateside.

🚨EXC: Gather Dejphon Chansiri missed a deadline on an offer that could have seen him receive future ££ out of SWFC.. by just a few minutes.

Offer made in light of EFL 'min div' rule, miss means he *could* walk away with nothing.

Just home from Sheffield,glad this season is over but I’ll be back for more next season,that might be the noisiest home crowd I’ve heard for a long long time

[The Daily Britain @dailybritainonx]

She destroyed Britain's industrial base and the communities built around it. She sold off national assets that Britons are now paying through privatised utility bills. She opposed sanctions on apartheid South Africa.

The housing crisis of today traces directly to the right to buy and failure to replace sold stock. The north-south divide she created has never healed.

Was she the making of modern Britain - or the beginning of everything that's gone wrong with it?

@leemoz9 what a job this season. A great day in the sunshine to watch @WorsbroughBFC upset the apple cart. In the end budgets don’t define these games or seasons. A plan, heart and hard work does.

[Grant Roberts @GrantR_1867]

The EFL has sanctioned Sheffield Wednesday consistently since 2018.

Over that period, the club has been hit with multiple transfer embargoes spanning nearly a decade. By October 2025, Wednesday were under six simultaneous embargoes — the most any club has ever faced.

On top of that, the club has suffered repeated points deductions. A -12 deduction in 2020/21 severely damaged recruitment and momentum going into that season. Although it was later reduced to -6 on appeal, the damage had already been done — those points ultimately proved the difference between survival and relegation to League One.

In 2025, the situation worsened further. The club received:
•-12 points for entering administration, after the former owner failed to meet basic financial obligations such as paying wages and bills on time
•A further -6 point deduction, again due to the owner’s failure to uphold his responsibilities

This is not a case of a club gaining an unfair advantage — quite the opposite. The club has been placed at a significant competitive disadvantage for years due to sustained mismanagement.

Sheffield Wednesday has endured one of the most damaging ownership periods a club of its size is likely to experience. The former owner’s approach has not only harmed the club financially but also created a toxic environment for staff and supporters alike.

And yet, despite this, there is now an expectation that the same owner should be repaid — while the club continues to face further punishment.

How can that be justified?

The new ownership group should not be penalised for the failures of the previous regime. They should be given the opportunity to restore stability to a club that has lacked it for nearly 26 years.

Imposing further sanctions — such as another -15 point deduction, spending caps, business plan restrictions, and transfer limitations — would only deepen the damage. It risks condemning the club to yet another relegation and prolonging the cycle of instability.

At some point, there has to be recognition that continued punishment is no longer corrective — it is excessive.

The club, its staff, and its supporters deserve the chance to move forward.

I asked Stoke boss Mark Robins about Wednesday's away following today:

"#SWFC are a club that I know really well and the supporters are absolutely outstanding. I think they've backed them in really difficult circumstances. They were outstanding." 🦉⚽️

It’s 33 years to the day since the Sheffield derby FA Cup semi-final, and Alan Kelly’s magnificent performance in goal.

Here are all of his saves from that day, followed by MOTD’s reaction.

One of the great Wembley goalkeeping displays.
