So the new #SWFC home shirt leans into the club’s history like the new owners have been doing since they arrived. But I can’t unsee the fact they didn’t centre align the owl and Umbro logos and I don’t see how it isn’t triggering everyone that sees it.
Season ruined. 😂

“We have stared down uncertainty, frustration and heartache yet the loyalty and resilience of Wednesdayites has never faltered. We have stood together. That spirit must now fuel our future.” #SWFC @[email protected]

Just to add to Sheffield Wednesday story.... new owners’ test doesn’t come into force until Tuesday but the IFR has been working in the background with the owners, administrators, fans’ groups and EFL throughout on the takeover. IFR also understood to have asked searching questions of the previous preferred bidders. #SWFC

Sheffield Wednesday under new ownership. EFL confirms administrators have “concluded an agreement with Arise Capital Partners LLC, a consortium led by David Storch, alongside Michael Storch and Tom Costin, to the transfer of assets of the Club and place Sheffield Wednesday under new ownership”. #SWFC

The man who wants to rescue Sheffield Wednesday, American businessman David Storch, says he has been “informed that a 15-point penalty is set to be imposed at the start of next season” in League One. The outgoing owner Dejphon Chansiri should hang his head in shame at the damage he has inflicted on Sheffield Wednesday. He can’t have a conscience. Otherwise he’d accept a compromise on bid price.
The EFL should have been tougher with Chansiri quicker. The FA should remember it is supposed to be custodians of the game and protect clubs. The importance of an Independent Football Regulator, much delayed by vested interests, is highlighted again by events at Wednesday.
At the moment, the people being punished at Wednesday are fans, players, staff and the man who wants to save them. Shameful situation engulfing a historic club which could have been avoided with stronger leadership by the authorities. And Chansiri locating some principles. #SWFC

Sheffield Wednesday are one of the oldest football clubs in the world, their famous name woven into the tapestry of the game. Formed in 1867, elected to the Football League in 1892, founder members of the Premier League, four times champions of England, three times winners of the FA Cup, and the League Cup once. Such honours may be far back in history but Wednesday remain a powerful force in many lives, in families, communities, in Sheffield and beyond.
It would be devastating to Wednesday supporters and deeply damaging to the reputation of English football if Wednesday lost their membership of the EFL because of the behaviour of an owner in Dejphon Chansiri who passed initial EFL ownership tests, was welcomed (let’s not forget), but turned out to be shamelessly irresponsible. Wednesday fans fear the club's existence might be at risk if the EFL imposes further punishments and restrictions that deter potential buyers.
Stronger oversight of owners is clearly required and the EFL and PL did tighten their rules in 2023. The new Independent Football Regulator will introduce a proper licensing system for clubs and better oversight of owners. Unfortunately, the IFR did not come into force early enough to prevent Wednesday's downward slide under Chansiri.
Wednesday are currently in administration and threatened with further EFL sanctions – a 15-point deduction for next season. This season's 18-point deduction all but guaranteed relegation from the Championship (confirmed on Feb 22). The League applies sanctions as punishment for debts and also as a deterrent to other clubs/owners.
The EFL emphasises it is working with all parties to “try and find a solution that can see Sheffield Wednesday continue as a member of the League....but ultimately we have to also apply the terms of the League’s insolvency policy…which seeks to balance the interests, not only of Sheffield Wednesday, but also of the other 71 clubs”.
Sheffield Wednesday Supporters' Trust, fighting hard for their club’s survival, has now released a copy of the EFL’s insolvency policy and argues that it gives the League, in the Trust’s words, “absolute discretion when determining how to deal with clubs experiencing an insolvency event”.
The Trust argues that “…further punitive sanctions risk undermining the very factors the EFL states it must consider - including the effect on supporters, the impact on the local community and the wider credibility of the league itself.
“Sheffield Wednesday supporters are not seeking advantage over other clubs. It is entirely right that all EFL clubs should be treated fairly and consistently. That principle must include Sheffield Wednesday that has already suffered enormously during a decade in which the EFL’s own regulatory oversight failed to prevent the damage that unfolded.
“We urge the EFL to apply its own guidance responsibly and ensure that the focus now is on allowing the club to recover, stabilise and move forward under new ownership. Sheffield Wednesday supporters have suffered enough.” #SWFC #EFL @[email protected]

Barry Bannan is a Sheffield Wednesday legend for the way he entertained fans, the way he fought for the team on the pitch and the way he fought for the Club off it. A very good player and an even better man. #SWFC

Fans, not customers. People who’ll fight for their club, who’ll be there long after reckless owners have departed. These are fans our sport must cherish and protect at all costs. One long-term hardcore fan is worth more than hundreds of day-trippers. It’s about community #swfc https://x.com/stancollymore/…

@[email protected] Perfect statement from Sheffield Wednesday players to their supporters, powerful and emotional and hits the spot 🎯 Wednesday fans never lost faith in the team, only in the owner. Sounds like Hillsborough will be very loud and proud tomorrow. #SWFC

Dejphon Chansiri should be ashamed at what he’s done to this great club. Those who delayed arrival of the Independent Football Regulator also need to look at themselves in the mirror. Bad owners need calling properly to account by those in power. #SWFC fans doing what they can https://x.com/robstaton/stat…
