    That might be one club certs for relegation then if they lose Rohl (likely).

    Sounds horrible as they're a proper club, but it certainly helps us.

    Word is that Rohl may go back to Germany, I'd be surprised if Powell followed him.
    Powell had enough with one bonkers owner so will be surprised if he would accept an offer to become the new manager.

    I'm just looking at their squad as well and he worked miracles to get them as high as he did. 

    Outside of Windass and Bannan, I'm not seeing much

    If they don't invest they could have a similar season to Plymouth.

    A warning that even a one time 'MASSIVE Club' that stays in the lower leagues too long can lose its fanbase, investors, public interest etc and wither on the vine. Perhaps Sheffield, albeit a big urban area is too small to support two 'big clubs'
    We need to beware that a swift relegation could land us in a similar situation.

    United averaged over 28,000 and Wednesday 26,500 I'd say that was pretty good support.

    It’s not the first time this season either.

    If Wednesday are desperate and resort to a 'fire sale', I'd love Bannan, even at age 35, to join us. (hopefully on the cheap lol)
    He's been one of the very best Champ midfielders for years

    No thanks . He’s way , way past his best and that’s not taking into account what’s tosser he is.

    Bannan hates us being an ex Nigel and after he had the piss taken out of him by Tariq Holmes-Dennis. Remember some shitty tweets from him when we were last relegated.

    Sheffield Wednesday Football Club has been charged with multiple breaches of EFL Regulations relating to payment obligations.

    The owner of Sheffield Wednesday, Dejphon Chansiri, has also been charged with causing the Club to be in breach of EFL Regulations despite his commitment to fund the cash requirements of the Club.

    All charges relate to both the Ultimate Beneficial Owner and the Club failing to meet their obligations to pay players’ wages on time and in full in March and May 2025. 

    The Club and Mr Chansiri have 14 days to respond to the charges.

    Must be a good candidate for the bottom 3 next year - aging squad, will likely get a transfer embargo based on this, and Rohl is being linked with other jobs.

    Is the punishment just a transfer embargo ?  Shame its not a points deduction.

    Could be 3 transfer windows potentially.

    They could still get a points deduction as well

    They’ll get a slapped wrist and a final warning.

    That is unlikely. Expect a transfer embargo and an agreed financial plan, that is what happened to Derby.

    Several final warnings.

    Nothing ever actually happens with stuff like this. 

    They get told they're in breach, they ignore it, and in a few months time they do it again, get told they're in breach, and ignore it, and so on and so forth ad infinium

    I’m actually against clubs being punished for having bad owners. That is to say, if they fail to pay wages etc. Yes, they should have a transfer embargo, but not points deductions. 

    I think it is clubs that have owners that bend finacial rules to overspend who should be punished with points deductions. Severely.
