£72,017.
That’s the current figure.
Wednesday supporters have raised £37,017, unlocking the full £35,000 matching pledge.
From one idea to £72,017 of opportunity for people who otherwise might miss out.
Absolutely incredible.
But why stop there?
The fundraiser remains open until at least the 12th June. Every extra pound raised means more season tickets, more match tickets, more mascot experiences and more Wednesday shirts for those who need them most.
Keep going. Keep sharing. Keep proving that We’re All Wednesday Aren’t We.

I liked football when a ref could make a mistake every now and again, we’d talk about it that night and after MOTD we’d move on. We’d all accept that mistakes happen, what we have now is just total nonsense and has ruined the game for me

Statement from Lord David Blunkett, a lifelong Sheffield Wednesday supporter, following the news the club is being taken over by David Storch & Arise Capital #SWFC:
“This has been a terrible saga. The 18-point deduction, the block on the purchase of new players, the cap on pay, plus the sale by the administrators of key members of the squad have devastated the team, the non-playing staff, local businesses and, above all, the fans.
“This has been punishment meted out to entirely the wrong people. The former owner and sole director of Sheffield Wednesday, Dejphon Chansiri – who refused to sell the club 12 months ago even though it was clear that he'd run out of money and the fans had run out of patience – has taken a financial hit of his own making. But it is everyone who loves the Club and cares about football who have felt the damage, the sheer unfairness, the disregard for competition within the Championship, and the inevitable relegation last February down into League One.
“This is a sorry tale of rules put together to deal with an entirely different scenario, bringing a once great club to its knees.
“We, the fans, the community that surrounds Hillsborough, and those sympathetic in the city, will support the fightback in the rebuilding of this great club
“Fans of football across the country have been wonderful and they will rejoice with us, long-standing supporters of the Owls, in the intervention of David Storch and his Partners in their clear commitment to running the Club on fair and transparent lines; to involve the fans Trust and to behave with probity and respect.
“All of us owe Henrik Pedersen, the manager throughout this season, a debt of gratitude for the way he's been able to continually motivate the small squad of players to get out in the field and to give their all. Those players deserve a medal for retaining their morale and self-respect, and whilst losing game after game, keeping their heads held high and giving the always committed and large group of supporters something to be proud of. We also owe a debt of gratitude to the non-playing staff, who have worked tirelessly against the odds.
“I would also like to pay tribute to Clive Betts MP, who, in acting as an honest broker with the fans, administrators, the EFL and with David Storch assisted greatly in keeping this bid in play and, as a fellow lifelong Sheffield Wednesday supporter and friend, deserves full credit for the part he has played.”
