@storchyowl Good luck, and welcome to the family. We know it’s a long road and a big task ahead, but, just for today, we don’t care. We have our club back…and what’s not to celebrate 🙌

@storchyowl I’ll be honest, I read the first page and thought “No!!! Not again”. But then, you have then shown the determination to succeed that we have missed for 10 years. Thank you for showing you believe in us, we’re all behind you #FairDealForWednesday

@AlanBiggs1 Mel Morris at Derby almost went from villain to hero by doing this. Surely if DC is all about the image and how he is viewed, it’s an option he’ll consider.

Wonder if the Storch group will try to negotiate with Dejphon Chansiri a buy-off of his debt? The most obvious (only?) way of avoiding -15 next season. And squaring off for all involved. Just a thought on a complex situation. #SWFC

@robstaton Wow, is there a risk that we won’t continue as members of the EFL?? Is this a hollow threat?

EFL Chief Operating Officer Nick Craig, on Sheffield Wednesday: “The League want to see Sheffield Wednesday continue as a member of the EFL, but ultimately we have to also apply the terms of the League’s Insolvency Policy. “The policy, of which has been agreed with Clubs and is there to act as guidance for all Clubs and insolvency practitioners, seeks to balance the interests, not only of Sheffield Wednesday, but also of the other 71 Clubs in the EFL. “We remain open to continuing the conversations with the preferred bidders and the Administrators to try and find a solution that can see Sheffield Wednesday continue as a member of the League.” #SWFC

@YesWeCrann Crikey, the source of funding can’t be anymore volatile than Tuna-boy’s…or have we forgotten when players weren’t paid because “he was waiting for funds to come to him”. The Admin have granted preferred bidder status because they were happy with the funding proposal.

From the Guardian tonight: The EFL is taking its time assessing the prospective buyout of Sheffield Wednesday to establish whether the purchase would be largely funded by the proceeds of gambling and crypto-gambling operations. theguardian.com/football/2026/…

Sheffield Wednesday Supporters' Trust
🟡⚫️ Banners at Hillsborough ⚫️🟡 The Sheffield Wednesday Supporters’ Trust recently wrote to the club requesting clarity on whether supporters could bring fire rated, none-offensive protest banners into Hillsborough. Peaceful protest is a legal right. Across the country, supporters of many clubs have displayed banners – even in the darkest moments of ownership and mismanagement. It is part of football culture, part of fan expression, and part of what makes supporters the lifeblood of their clubs. Incredibly, Sheffield Wednesday Football Club has rejected this request. This stance is almost unprecedented. Even some of the most notorious football owners in the UK have never gone as far as to attempt to silence their own fans in this way. Hillsborough risks becoming the first stadium in the country where supporters are denied the right to display their opposition. Contrast this with Wrexham AFC, who initially blocked our banner request earlier this season. After listening to their fans and recognising how strongly the wider football community feels about the right to protest, they quickly rectified their decision. That is how a club connected to its community behaves. This decision is another clear echo of Dejphon Chansiri’s style of leadership: an unwillingness to listen, a refusal to engage, and a mindset that more resembles that of a dictator than the custodian of a proud community institution. Our club should not be run like a dictatorship. It belongs to the fans and the generations who have built its history. Silencing supporters will not make the problems go away. It only deepens the divide between the terraces and the boardroom. We urge all fans to continue to make their voices heard – inside and outside the stadium – until Dejphon Chansiri sells the club. #SWFC #EnoughIsEnough

@SWFCTrust And the @LCFC fans should be praised for showing their support by applauding unanimously…fan rivalry put to one side, it was humbling to see. Thanks to @SkySports for focussing in on this for a good minute or so.

@swfc That’s going to do well for the match day income then…and DC valued the ground at £60m! Every day that this cretin is at the helm, the lower the actual value of the club…sell up and sod off!

@sheff6man True, but how much damage will he have done before the IFR bites?

@DavidGodwin79 Kevin Mcguire on the WTID podcast seemed to suggest that this football governance act wouldn’t help #swfc yet Lisa Nandy says it will. My reading of it also leads me to think the IFR could force an owner out

This is not a criticism of the Football Governance Act or the Regulator, I support it, but I genuinely don’t understand how it applies to #swfc What can the regulator do and how soon can this happen?

@DavidGodwin79 @S20Baggio Yeah but no unfortunately, his financial mismanagement will be his down fall, and I think that will result in the licence been taken from him, the question is how quick will the IFR act? Hopefully with this coming he makes a sale at a sensible price sooner rather than later #swfc
