I hope teams see how we played against Middlesbrough, and just copy our tactics.
We were very effective against them, and nullified their impressive midfield.

I'm not a 'recruitment truther'. I think in the main we've done very well.

I think however that we left ourselves short in the summer window and that really affected us in the winter months.

We've done excellently well in January to rectify that but we'd probably be out of sight now if we just did that in the summer.

Agreed, the wings were a clear issue and I fully understand we couldn't turn down the Sheaf offer from Wrexham, I doubt we'd planned for that, didn't we try a late deal for Bogarde or whatever his name is at Villa? We were definitely short a holding player. Grimes worked so well but ran out steam. Thankfully Onyeka has plugged that and Esse, Yang and
Markelo add loads of depth to the front line.

Feels like only Rushworth and Dasilva who we'd struggle to cover now

Sheff Wednesday's takeover is off

If they were to start next season in admin do they get another deduction?

No, but that will be the least of their concerns.

They should have accepted the Ashley bid. Yes they'd have started next season with a points deduction, but they were never getting promoted anyway.

If approval had come through in time, they could be already planning their rebuild.

And yes, I think being in admin would see a points deduction.

Looked like this bloke who has pulled out was/is a bit of a crook, professional poker player by all accounts - Wonder if it is the bloke who went on CWR and said he is close to buying us as well as forging all the solicitors documents

Wouldn't surprise me to see Mike Ashley swoop in at the 11th and a half hour to get it as cheap as poss, Hillsborough would be plastered in Frasers advertising next season but least they would have a club to support I guess

I've said before but there is a big chance of them being liquidated. I was never convinced there was a viable takeover for them.

I dunno, I just cannot see anyone allowing a club the size of Sheffield Wednesday ceasing to exist

2019 when Bury and Bolton were going to the wall, no disrespect to Bury at all but there was a reason they didn't make it and a club the size of Bolton did

Someone, somewhere will be daft enough to take a club like Bolton or Sheff Weds on - Bury were unfortunately not a big enough name to be saved

Interestingly they’ve spent quite a bit keeping the club’s losses funded in the meantime but decided not to proceed. If they’re losing £12 million a year and also need someone to pay for renovations at Hillsborough on top, it’s a big ask.

I’m still sure they will get a white knight though.

Tim Fisher was on record being a big Sheffield Wednesday fan...

Maybe they could have him and Joy
