An incredible story here as Molly from @SWFCCP has this week been awarded the King’s Commendation for Bravery by King Charles III at Buckingham Palace. The award was in recognition of her courageous actions during an armed attack at Birley Academy in Sheffield on 1 May 2024. Proud of you, Molly! 🔗 swfc.co.uk/news/2026/marc…

@JimWhite During a game between Sheff Wed & Leeds just after the Saville news broke in 2012 when Chris Kirkland got punched in the face by a Leeds fan. It was the Leeds fans who were the ones that started the chanting of "One Jimmy Saville" total hypocrisy.

Ok. This is brilliant.

@owlsmadmorris @OwlPricey @MattJohno1989 But what was the contributing factor to this? We all know, as was highlighted at the time, the price of the tickets was as at an all time high. I know I debated whether to get one purely because of the price.

@_LuckyRich @OwlPricey @MattJohno1989 Not as things stand currently they won't. Last season we finished in our highest league position for 8 years, season tickets reduced by 3K. People have their eyes open now. We will always have a good core support but fans are not blind to what is happening.

Mike Ashley “still interested” in the same way I’m “still interested” in being a footballer. For context I’m 36, no pace, 6 foot 3 and refuse to jump, won’t run for a ball either side of me and am entirely right footed. But I’m still interested. #swfc

@OwlPricey @owlsmadmorris @MattJohno1989 Irony is not lost on some.

@OwlPricey @owlsmadmorris @MattJohno1989 Missed a thriller in the second half pal

@owlsmadmorris @OwlPricey @MattJohno1989 A new season brings new belief, as it always has done for years way beyond my lifetime. Fans will believe we are a big player in League 1 and new season ticket sales will reflect this.

@_LuckyRich @OwlPricey @MattJohno1989 But that won't change for the better until July 1st at best. Our squad gets depleted further at the end of the season, until a takeover goes through it definitely doesn't get any better. When do people start blindly signing up to this shit again to provide some guaranteed income?

@owlsmadmorris @OwlPricey @MattJohno1989 But that's because of what is happening now. We all now it's crap at the minute and most recognise why this is.

@_LuckyRich @OwlPricey @MattJohno1989 You, no. I've done the same for majority of the last 35 seasons too but I am considering what my ceiling is now and I won't be the only one - plenty have already had enough. 😕

@owlsmadmorris @OwlPricey @MattJohno1989 Seeing how I've paid whatever Chansiri asked for the last 10 years, do you really think I have a ceiling?

@_LuckyRich @OwlPricey @MattJohno1989 As admirable as that is, plenty of current season ticket holders clearly aren't as blindly committed. Is there a price level that you would baulk at for 3rd division football?

@owlsmadmorris @MattJohno1989 @OwlPricey To be fair I think you know that the majority of season ticket holders don't care what division we play in.

@_LuckyRich @MattJohno1989 @OwlPricey Fair play, not sure the thousands of current season ticket holders that already aren't turning up for what they have paid for will do the same. 😕

@OwlPricey @owlsmadmorris @MattJohno1989 🤣🤣 we did indeed, and my stance hasn't altered a few sherbets deeper.

@_LuckyRich @owlsmadmorris @MattJohno1989 I’m sure we had this conversation at around 13:15 today 😂😂

@owlsmadmorris @MattJohno1989 @OwlPricey If it helps, I would.

@MattJohno1989 @OwlPricey I'd love to know how many of these 'happy to start next season on -15' with magic Mike will actually commit to buying a season ticket if that's the case....

@WereAllWeds1867 You don't know how NDA's work do you?

Not claiming for this to be ITK, its not. Anyone heard that our source of funding could be a big issue in getting takeover over the line? Hope not, we desperately need to be able to trade and get further bodies in before end of this transfer window if we can.

@NPC14 @StanCollymore No it doesn't. Best to fact check before commenting buddy!!

@StanCollymore They do realise the money won't go to the club, the administrators will use it to pay off creditors

Sheffield Wednesday supporters have spent £100,000 at the club in the last 24 hours. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

@Prem2014 @StanCollymore Nope, goes to the running costs of the club. Administrator fees come out of the sale proceeds. It is very much spend, spend, spend at this time.

@StanCollymore Would it not be more beneficial to wait until a new ownership is in place? Won’t that money go towards paying the administrators fees and servicing unpaid debt?

@OwlPricey @MarkBotts04 High on life my friend, high on life

@_LuckyRich @MarkBotts04 You pissed already?

Bar at 35 well and truly back tomorrow @MarkBotts04 @_LuckyRich 😂😂

@OwlPricey @MarkBotts04 Lump on Ugbo first goalscorer

@_LuckyRich @MarkBotts04 Yeah, all beer will be 3 months out of date 😂😂

@OwlPricey @NexSportDrabble @s6_swfc It is unknown territory, but the IFR will have greater power than the EFL.

@_LuckyRich @NexSportDrabble @s6_swfc He’s surely done that already by lying to the EFL in March that he could fund the club going forward. As for the EFL, I wouldn’t trust them as far as I could throw em’!

@OwlPricey @NexSportDrabble @s6_swfc They can if he fails their Owners & Directors Test. Won't be quick or easy, but they will eventually remove him if necessary.

@NexSportDrabble @s6_swfc There’s nothing they can do, he owns the club lock, stock and barrel, they can’t take his own business off him.
