Buckle up, there’s always a drama. But it is also the final game of the season at Hillsborough and with that comes the possibility that when a number of players wander off the field and...

Queens Park Rangers recorded a rampant 4-0 win over Wednesday’s automatic promotion-chasing rivals Leeds United to take them to 53 points and into 17th place in the table. It leaves them seven points clear of Birmingham City in the first relegation spot and seals their Championship status for next season. Goals from Ilias Chair, Lucas Andersen, Lyndon Dykes and Sam Field finished the job for the London side, who together with the Owls had spent much of the campaign in the bottom three. Like...
It’ll be his first experience of a sold out Hillsborough and with plenty on the line, they’ll welcome play-off hunting West Bromwich Albion to S6 hoping not only to retain their place in the safety zone, but to leapfrog a team or two ahead of them by claiming a vital win. And as the boom of Jeff Beck’s Hi Ho Silver Lining blasts out into the South Yorkshire afternoon, Valentin will drink it in.

The 25-year-old striker, who Wednesday were interested in signing a couple of seasons back, has been a big player for the Baggies in 2024/25, scoring 11 goals in the Championship as they look to secure a top six finish and reach the play-offs for a shot at returning to the Premier League. Thomas-Asante scored two in three prior to the game against Sunderland earlier this month, however in that game he was shown two quickfire yellow cards that resulted in his dismissal, and he was forced to sit...

Wednesday, as a...
The former Chelsea youngster, brought in on loan from French club Troyes early on in the January transfer window, belted six goals in five matches and grabbed an assist in the seventh as Wednesday blitzed through February and into March. In a 14-game run from his signing, Wednesday did not win a game in which he hadn’t had a direct goal contribution, such was his importance. Fast-forward to the present and Ugbo hasn’t scored in his last eight outings. But his impact has remained amid a shift in...
Sheffield Wednesday picked up a huge win on Sunday, defeating relegation rivals Blackburn Rovers to haul themselves out of the bottom three. Danny Rohl’s men showed real grit to twice take the lead before heading back to South Yorkshire with all three points.

In the meantime, the WhoScored team of the week has been released, and there is some...
Former Sheffield Wednesday goalkeeper David Stockdale has given his take on an error from Blackburn Rovers stopper Ainsley Pears that helped boost the Owls bid to avoid relegation. Danny Rohl’s side were a goal to the good as the midway point of the second-half approached after Josh Windass and Marvin Johnson netted either side of an equaliser from Rovers top goalscorer Sammie Szmodics. But the game was all but ended as a contest when Pears made a mess on a backpass and allowed the ball to...
