Sheffield Wednesday’s xG tonight against one of the poorest teams in the league? 0.34 #SWFC had two shots at goal. One on target. Totally inadequate and unacceptable. No wonder they’re struggling to score goals. It has been the same old story for months. 🦉⚽️

An eighth successive defeat across all competitions for #SWFC. Not scored a goal since the second half of their Boxing Day draw at home to Hull. Their 2025/26 Championship record reads: (W1 D8 L21). End the season now. 🦉⚽️

🔵⚪️ Ryan Hardie is an excellent signing for #htafc. Proven performer at League One level. Should give him them more cutting edge in the final third as soon as he gets up to speed. Two strikers in on deadline day sets Town up perfectly for the final stretch.

Sheffield Wednesday have completed their second deadline day signing, bringing in former Luton Town midfielder Marvelous Nakamba. Has joined on a free transfer, penning a contract until the end of the season. #SWFC 🦉⚽️

Sheffield Wednesday have announced their fifth signing of the winter transfer window. Forward Joel Ndala has joined #SWFC on loan from Manchester City for the rest of the season. 🦉⚽️

🔵⚪️ No way would #htafc have beaten Bradford, Luton and Peterborough under Lee Grant. Liam Manning has had a transformative impact. Instilled a sense of pride and togetherness. Showed good tactical acumen tweaking David Kasumu’s position at the weekend. Town are on the up.

Sheffield Wednesday have completed the signing of defender Tayo Adaramola from Crystal Palace. The left-back has joined on loan until the end of the season. #SWFC 🦉⚽️

🔵⚪️ What a start Liam Manning has made to life at #htafc. Three wins out of three. Get another striker in before the window closes and Town will look in even better shape.

Sheffield Wednesday are not going to score another goal this season, are they?!! Couldn’t have gone much closer with opportunities in quick succession for Cadamarteri and Lowe. Henrik Pedersen gives Josh Windass a big hug as he goes off. 79 minutes gone. #SWFC trail 1-0. 🦉⚽️

One position #SWFC must strengthen before the window closes is left wing back. Max Lowe is a massive miss and Reece Johnson does not look ready for the rigours of Championship football. Is a case now of how many goals Wrexham will get. Heads have dropped since the opener. 🦉⚽️

So, so predictable. #SWFC do ok for long periods in matches but eventually run out of steam and the opposition score. 🦉⚽️

A scrappy, stop-start first half. #SWFC have battled well. Everyone has stuck to their task defensively. Cooper has looked rock solid at the back. But it’s yet another half of football they have failed to score in. Yates ought to have hit the target with his first chance. 🦉⚽️

Impressed with Heskey in midfield. Is putting himself about in. Has been neat and tidy on the ball. Yates has done reasonably well in attack. Now had a couple of efforts at goal. Same old story for #SWFC. They’ve been competitive, but zero end product. 38 gone. 0-0. 🦉⚽️

Kabore at right wing back looks Wrexham’s big threat today. Jamal Lowe has got drop back to give Reece Johnson some defensive assistance. Decent start by #SWFC. Had the best chance so far with the debutant Yates. Wrexham have dominated possession but done little with it. 🦉⚽️

🔵⚪️ Huge blow for #htafc that Alfie May is suspended for four matches. Leaves them desperately short of strikers ahead of the trip to Peterborough. Bojan Radulovic looks unlikely to be fit. It could force Liam Manning into a system change. Would rather he play two up front.

Why does Emma Radacanu keep splitting with coaches? Is now looking for the 10th of her career…and she’s still only 23. Is she too difficult to work with? She hasn’t won a title since the US Open. If she’s going to close the gap on the top players, she needs to settle on a coach.

📣 𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐒𝐇𝐄𝐅𝐅𝐈𝐄𝐋𝐃 𝐖𝐄𝐃𝐍𝐄𝐒𝐃𝐀𝐘 𝐅𝐀𝐍𝐒 ⏰ Time is running out to get your name printed in 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐨𝐬 𝐇𝐚𝐝 𝐚 𝐃𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦. 📘 Pre‑order before January 31 to make it happen. #SWFC @VerticalEds @carloscarvalha2 🦉⚽️ tinyurl.com/4me64wma

Barry Bannan has joined Millwall for an undisclosed fee. #SWFC have released a statement confirming the midfielder’s departure. 🦉⚽️

Barry Bannan’s move to Millwall looks set to go through today - and from a career standpoint it adds up. - Guaranteed Championship football next season (possibly PL) ✅ - Stronger financial package ✅ - An 18‑month deal at 36 ✅ - Big boost to World Cup hopes ✅ #SWFC 🦉⚽️

🔵⚪️ Monumental performance and win for #htafc with 10 men. Murray Wallace was a man mountain at the back. Joe Lowe and Radinio Baulker were exceptional too. The team showed great fight and togetherness. Back-to-back wins for Liam Manning. What an impact he has made.

🔵⚪️ Bojan Radulovic’s injury and Alfie May’s impending suspension increases the importance of #htafc signing a new striker before the window shuts next week. Can’t rely on Dion Charles to get the goals to keep them in the play-offs.

🔵⚪️ Missed the start of #htafc vs Luton. Back in time to see Alfie May pick up his second red card of the season for pulling on Kasey Palmer’s hair. What a daft dismissal. May should know better for such an experienced player. Town have now got to play over an hour with 10 men.

🔵⚪️ The 'new manager bounce' must continue at #htafc. The team produced arguably their best performance of the season on Saturday. But it's no good beating Bradford and then slipping up against promotion rivals Luton and Peterborough. Still plenty of room for improvement.

More from the Alao statement: "As Administrators, our responsibility is to act in the best long-term interests of #SWFC and its creditors. This transfer balances immediate value for the club with protection for the future, should Yisa’s career develop as we all hope." 🦉⚽️

Key line in the #SWFC statement on Yisa Alao's permanent move to Chelsea: "The transfer includes a substantial upfront payment, along with further protections to ensure the club benefits should Yisa go on to fulfil the potential he has shown." Includes performance-related payments and a sell-on 🦉⚽️

Would be up there with one of the biggest bottle jobs in Premier League history if Arsenal fail to win the title this season, IMHO. They’ve got best squad in the league. They’ve spent a small fortune in the transfer market in the summer. Mikel Arteta HAS to be winning a major trophy.

Henrik Pedersen has confirmed that Barry Bannan wants to leave #SWFC. 🗣️ “I don’t want him to leave. Baz and his representatives are speaking to the club to find a solution.” 🦉⚽️

Barry Bannan blows kisses to the #SWFC fans before a heartwarming embrace with the club’s legendary club photographer Steve Ellis. 🦉⚽️

Barry Bannan’s emotional goodbye. #SWFC 💔🦉⚽️

Barry Bannan appears to bid a fond farewell to #SWFC. 🦉⚽️

Solid first half from #SWFC. Defended resolutely and have got into some good attacking positions. The final pass has let them down. Palmer and Otegbayo have done well at the back. Inglesson has worked his socks off in midfield. 🦉⚽️

Twenty one matches without a win. Not scored a goal since Boxing Day. And yet there are almost 2,000 #SWFC fans here at Ashton Gate. Extraordinary backing as always. 👏👏👏 🦉⚽️

I saw Barry Bannan’s first match for #SWFC more than a decade ago. Will Bristol City be his Wednesday swansong? Live commentary on BBC Radio Sheffield with Rob Staton. 🦉⚽️

🔵⚪️ No time for new #htafc boss Liam Manning to settle in. The next week could define Town’s season. Back-to-back home matches against promotion rivals followed by a tricky clash at Peterborough. They’ve got to go on a winning run now.

Isn’t it mad how football works? Barry Bannan’s first match for Millwall - if he joins them - would be against Sheffield United next week. Millwall are then due to visit Hillsborough on Valentine’s Day. Today promises to be a very emotional one for the Bannan family. #SWFC 🦉⚽️

Do you know I’ve got a book coming out? 🤪 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐨𝐬 𝐇𝐚𝐝 𝐚 𝐃𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 is available to pre‑order today. Order before the end of January and your name goes in the hardback. More genius artwork from that man Chris Lee. 👏👏👏 tinyurl.com/4me64wma #SWFC 🦉⚽️

🔵⚪️ Will be interesting to see what Liam Manning says at his first #htafc press call. On his non-negotiables, LM said: "I think the bare minimum for any fan to turn up, paying hard-earned money to see is that players run, they compete, they fight and give absolutely everything."

What a depressing #SWFC stat: Wednesday have only taken 7⃣ points from a possible 6⃣3⃣ since beating Portsmouth in September. There's around 2,000 fans heading to Bristol City tomorrow. Fingers crossed the Owls' injury-ravaged side can give them something to shout about. 🦉⚽️

Sheffield Wednesday have set an unwanted club record. It’s now 2️⃣1️⃣ league matches without a win. They’ve not scored a goal since Boxing Day. They ran out of steam against Birmingham and the visitors punished them. End the season now. #SWFC 🦉⚽️

Positive response from #SWFC to the good spell of pressure Birmingham had. This is the best I’ve seen Cadamarteri play in a long time. Has given Birmingham’s defence plenty to think about. Valery has been a decent outlet at RWB. Solid shift from him. 69 minutes gone. 0-0. 🦉⚽️

Bailey Cadamarteri hitting the post looks like the worst thing that could have happened to #SWFC tonight. It woke Birmingham up. There’s precious little Henrik Pedersen can do to change things with his bench. It’s all Birmingham now. Relentless pressure. 🦉⚽️

Well done Reece Johnson for keeping old foe Patrick Roberts pretty quiet. Not an easy match up but Johnson has given as good as he has got. All to play for in the second half after another spirited #SWFC showing. 🦉⚽️

How bad are Birmingham? One of the worst sides I’ve seen in the Championship this season. But credit #SWFC for limiting them to few opportunities so far. Defended well and are now growing in confidence with their attacking play. Liking Heskey in midfield. Give us a goal! 🦉⚽️

Huge thanks to @eandnswfanzine for giving 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐨𝐬 𝐇𝐚𝐝 𝐚 𝐃𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 a spot in the latest fanzine. Appreciate the support massively. Another huge shout out to Owls fan Chris Lee for the artwork too. Follow the link to pre order the book. #SWFC 🦉⚽️ www.verticaleditions.com/product-page...

🔵⚪️ I’d have preferred Gary Rowett to Liam Manning as Huddersfield Town’s new head coach, but Manning’s done good work at MK Dons, Oxford and Bristol City. He’ll need a strong start to get the fans onside. A home win against Bradford would be the perfect launchpad. #htafc

🔵⚪️ Coaches Marc Bridge-Wilkinson, Jonathan Robinson and Paul McShane have all departed #htafc following Lee Grant’s dismissal as boss on Saturday evening. Sporting director Chris Markham, who only arrived at the end of November, is leading the hunt for Grant’s successor.

🔵⚪️ So #htafc have to appoint a new manager ASAP and sign some more players before the transfer window closes to reignite their stuttering promotion bid. So much for a quiet couple of weeks for new sporting director Chris Markham. 🤣

🔵⚪️ Owner Kevin Nagle has released a statement explaining the club’s decision to sack Lee Grant. #htafc

Neil Warnock Darren Moore Andre Breitenreiter Jon Worthington (caretaker x 2) Michael Duff Lee Grant #htafc has become a graveyard for managers. It’s why fans are constantly questioning the decision-making from the top. Things have gone backwards on the pitch under Kevin Nagle.

Now 2️⃣0️⃣ Championship matches without a win for #SWFC. The other sides in the second tier to have gone 20+ matches without a win in a season are Darwen in 1898-99 (27), Barnsley in 1952-53 (23), Cambridge United in 1983-84 (31) and Rotherham in 2004-05 (20). ☹️🦉⚽️
