Sheffield Wednesday are potentially just days away to securing a second consecutive season in the Championship. The Owls defeated West Brom last weekend to give themselves a huge chance of securing survival, needing just a point from their final game to ensure safety. The Owls were once cut adrift at the bottom of the table, but the arrival of Danny Rohl on October 13 changed everything. Rohl has done a tremendous job to give Wednesday an opportunity to survive, and here we have put together a...
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...

The Owls picked up a statement win over relegation rivals Blackburn Rovers, winning 3-1 at Ewood Park to climb out of the bottom three. Danny Rohl’s men now have a palpable chance of survival even if they have a lot of work still to do with two games remaining. Josh Windass kicked off the scoring in Lancashire, continuing his impact following his return from...

Here we have rounded up the Championship form...
Sheffield Wednesday are on course to beat relegation with just one game remaining, but how do they compare to the dirtiest teams in the Championship when it comes to fouls? The Owls have been transformed by Danny Rohl since his arrival in October, and they now have a big shot at survival. Wednesday only need a point from their last game to ensure they remain in the second tier, and that’s a situation many couldn’t have dreamed of earlier in the season following a disastrous start. As the Owls...
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 are still well and truly alive in the Championship survival race, currently one point outside the relegation zone following a huge away win over relegation rivals Blackburn Rovers last time out. Danny Rohl’s men have picked up significantly in the second part of the season, but they still have work to do. Facing play-off-bound West Brom and Sunderland in their last two games, the Owls are going to need more points, especially when you consider Birmingham City and Huddersfield...

In the meantime, the WhoScored team of the week has been released, and there is some...
Birmingham City have reportedly made a big decision ahead of their final game of the season, and potentially their final game in the Championship for over a year.

Sheffield Wednesday took a huge step towards securing their Championship survival at the weekend with a gutsy 3-0 win over West Bromwich Albion at Hillsborough. The Owls’ fight will go right down to the wire, but they need just one point against Sunderland to lock in their safety. Ahead of their last push, Danny Röhl was full of praise and appreciation for the fans, who have packed out the home stands throughout this season and were in full volume last time out. “They are incredible. To see our...
As the bus wound down towards the stadium, the crowds got denser. Wednesday were due to play the might of Manchester United - but flashes of red were sparse. It was a moment several members of that iconic squad and its coaching staff regale as instrumental in their historic 1-0 win - the sheer numbers lining the streets making them relax a touch, as if the Wembley date was a home fixture. Perhaps just a little ironic it was, then, that on the 33rd anniversary of John Sheridan’s ‘dink’ winner at...
