Will Grainger goes off with a knock. Standing ovation from the home faithful. First time I’ve seen Grainger live. He has got a big future ahead of him. Still only 17. #SWFC 🦉⚽️
Without going all pseudo-intellectual; at the heart of it, football is all about the shared human experience. Today will be one of those. Enjoy it; wear something daft, have another drink, cuddle a stranger.
Who truly knows what comes next, but for today who cares? Today is about the last year and the scale of shared achievement. It's about how people worked together and kept the thing breathing. And it's about the renewal of hope and possibility.
Park protests, leaflets, boycotts, embassies, Leicester, Boro, Megastore sell-outs, Oxford, endless togetherness on endless doomed away trips. Fear, defiance, faith. Personally, I'm proud and privileged to have witnessed the whole lot.
Today's society feels increasingly individual and cold and uninterested in the value of community. It wasn't without its moments, but the overwhelming feeling is that Sheffield Wednesday's 2025/26 travails brought it all back. Awesome in the true sense of the word.
UTO.

Away from the takeover, Wednesday, in case you happened to forget, have a final match of this wretched season to play tomorrow. Will Grainger must be in the conversation for a start after his first career goal last weekend.
Some ramblings: ⬇️

At just 17 years and 156 days old, Sheffield Wednesday striker Will Grainger became one of the youngest ever players to score in the Championship at the weekend.😯✅
Grainger scored Sheffield Wednesday’s only goal in a 4-1 loss to Oxford United.⚽️
This made him the youngest player to score for Sheffield Wednesday in nearly 50 years. He is also the second-youngest to score in the Championship this season, only behind Jeremy Monga.🤯
What a goal it was as well.👀👏
It’s understood that finalising a contract that would tie Will Grainger down on a more permanent deal, fending off any interest from bigger clubs elsewhere, is among the priorities for the decision-makers at S6 going into next season.

HT: Wednesday U21s 3-0 Crewe Alexandra U21s.
Two goals from Will Grainger in the blink of an eye and one from Devlan Moses have the Owls in charge at the break.
