We have lost an English football legend today 😢💔

[The Wednesday Week Podcast @TWWcast]

It’s difficult to comprehend the difference in this year’s preseason preparations to last year’s.

Work still to be done in bolstering the squad, but the positivity (and let’s be right basic organisation ) around the club is a breath of fresh air….🦉

The response to the supporters’ Kop flag sponsorship appeal has been absolutely outstanding. Thanks to everyone who’s emailed to get involved. We’ll be replying as soon as we can.

Safe to say… the flag is happening.

This club. 💙🦉

What's crazy about this is how easy it is to do...

Middlewood Road has needed a facelift for years, even just the boards around the pitch are a huge improvement.

It's not really for the outside world, either. This is for the people who are there every day - it's important.

🚨 NEW PRODUCT LAUNCH 🚨

It's been a little while since I've launched anything new, and I wanted to be honest about why.

Over the last few weeks, a combination of struggling with my mental health and simply not having the time to dedicate to designing and creating new products has meant things have been quieter than I'd have liked. Thankfully, things are moving in the right direction, and it feels great to finally be back creating again. 💙

With Sheffield Wednesday's long-awaited reunion with Umbro, it only felt right to celebrate by releasing these brand new retro-inspired LED Lightboxes.

These are available to order now! 🎉

As a little launch celebration, use the code: UMBRO5
at checkout to receive £5 off your order via https://t.co/0ziQW1fC40!

Thank you to everyone who's continued to support me while things have been quiet. Every order, share and kind message genuinely means the world, and I've got plenty more ideas in the pipeline.

Thank you 🦉

An #England Observation

Positive Mental Attitude

Whilst the performance again was not at its peak, England found a way to get past a difficult performance. It didn’t look pretty but England are becoming effective at negotiating these tricky paths and teams. Again playing at perhaps 80% in difficult hot conditions (same for both sides) they grind out wins. Tuchal tactically gets it right and reads a game well. Bellingham at 22 is playing like a man possessed dragging England by the hair. I think praise to Anderson who quietly got on with it and played for me his most mature game. Spence who I think tried too hard at the beginning but has grown into being an England player was very effective. I think first half Norway were the better team and should have been 2-0 up just after half time. But then England started to get into the flow and edge forward.

Mentality they are showing how strong they are. Add the quality we know is there and anything’s possible. It’s not how you start it’s his you finish.

Argentina are good but not a great team. It won’t be easy but they are beatable. Let’s the fun and stress begin. #ENGNOW

First words from our new GK 🧤

[The Wednesday Voice @TheWedVoice]

@swfcsc Nothing has been missed.
It's taking a little longer than expected, and to avoid making the same mistakes made in the initial brief that was posted, we are taking our time.
We don't want to rush anything 😊

[The Wednesday Voice @TheWedVoice]

The Wednesday Voice exists to help ensure Sheffield Wednesday is a well-run club, with strong, meaningful links to its supporters and community. It is about bringing together the club, its supporters, and the wider community so we can move forward as one.

𝐐: 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐒𝐡𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝 𝐖𝐞𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫’𝐬 𝐯𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞.
The Sheffield Wednesday Trust has over 2000 members; this still leaves 90% of Sheffield Wednesday Supporters without representation and a voice. ‘The Wednesday Voice’ aims to engage those supporters that feel disenfranchised and enable them to influence the future direction of the supporter’s experience.

𝐐: 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞. 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐡𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝 𝐖𝐞𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐭.
The purpose of ‘The Wednesday Voice’ is to listen to supporters, give them platform and help Sheffield Wednesday FC engage with a broader section of the fan base for the benefit of the Club, its supporters,’ and the wider Sheffield Wednesday Community.
‘The Wednesday Voice’ wants to collaborate closely with the club whilst maintaining its independence whilst acting as a check and challenge to ensure supporters’ views are heard and acted upon as the club progresses.

𝐐: 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐝𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐣𝐨𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐡𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝 𝐖𝐞𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐭.
Whilst the Sheffield Wednesday Trust has significant work, particularly over the last 18 months in mobilising supporter action and highlighting key issues facing the club. However, we believe there is a clear need for an additional, independent supporter’s organisation that’s sits outside the business of the club and provides a broad platform of supporters’ opinion.
‘The Wednesday Voice’ aims to be a broad church of views, collaborating with the club to develop and world class fan base including matchday experience and fan engagement.

𝐐: 𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐭 ‘𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐞𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐕𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞’ 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐭 𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐚𝐥𝐥?
Inclusiveness is at the heart of ‘The Wednesday Voice.’ The organisation is open to all supporters, regardless of background, and is committed to ensuring every supporter has a voice that can be heard, represented, and communicated effectively to the club.

𝐐: 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐠𝐨𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 ‘𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐞𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐕𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞’ 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧.
‘The Wednesday Voice’ will be a democratically run organisation, with members voting on major decisions. Transparency, openness and ongoing dialogue with supporters and other supporter groups will be central to how ‘The Wednesday Voice’ operates.

𝐐: 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐡𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝 𝐖𝐞𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐅𝐂 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬’ 𝐎𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬?
‘The Wednesday Voice’ wants to work in collaboration with all Sheffield Wednesday Supporters Groups. Every group has a valid role in representing its members and contributing ideas. By listening to each other and working together, we can better support the club. No group should seek to dominate others. Everyone’s voice is equal.

𝐐: 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐬 ‘𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐞𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐕𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞’ 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐬?
Initially, the organisation will be funded through donations to allow it to be properly established and registered. In the longer term, it is envisaged that ‘The Wednesday Voice’ will become a membership organisation, with an annual subscription of £10 to support running costs and events.

Future fund-raising activities will aim to enhance the matchday experience for Sheffield Wednesday supporters and support the wider Sheffield Wednesday Community.
