@_GeorgeSmith99 He sounds a top bloke. We need a top manager to work with him though. We can’t have someone as good as Bruce but someone as poor as Pedersen as manager.

I’m impressed. Very impressed. This interview only strengthens my argument that Wednesday have made a very shrewd appointment.

🎥 Watch our first interview with Chief Executive Officer David Bruce.

@robstaton No mention of Pedersen. Probably wishful thinking but maybe new owners have realised he isn’t the man for the job. Doesn’t sound like the manager will be getting much say in player signings?

Update from David Storch to Sheffield Wednesday fans -- including a note on a plan for a much needed training ground revamp. Also says top priority is squad building ahead of a key summer. #SWFC

Dear @swfc fans… best fans in the whole wide world, It’s been a whole 2 weeks ( not 2 months ) since we kicked off our stewardship of this great club. Thanks for your outpouring of support / response to our release of season ticket sales. Credit to David Bruce & co for putting in the thought and designing a fan centric offering. Hopefully you’ve seen work began at Hillsborough, firstly around improving fan safety. Once completed, more to follow… much! Designing plan for training grounds, 1 ) in preparation for upcoming season; 2) with future in mind. Our mission is to give our 1st team and others in our playing family the best in facilities, for proper training and recovery. More to follow! David B & co very focused on building the squad to carry us through next season and beyond… this is our top #1 priority and will receive outsized attention. And even with restrictions placed on us for the next two seasons due to prior owners behavior, @michaelestorch, Tom and I have unwavering confidence in David and his football brain trust to make all of us @swfc fans proud. We strive to put a great team on the pitch! Even while back in the States, please know our entire focus and energy is squarely on making Sheffield Wednesday the best all around club and fan experience we can. We will continue to strive for excellence in everything we do! We will give it our all… for you! This is your club! David

Sheffield Wednesday can confirm the club’s retained list with the 2025/26 season complete.
We offer our sincere thanks to all the players leaving the Owls and wish them the very best for the future 🦉

If you missed tonight's #SWFC season ticket Q&A, where I also spoke about Simon Wilson, the retained list, and plenty more - I've now uploaded it as a podcast...

@SWFCTrust Can you ask him about Pedersen and why he thinks he deserves to stay as manager. Massive mistake to keep him.

We’re delighted to confirm that Sheffield Wednesday CEO David Bruce will be attending and speaking at the Sheffield Wednesday Supporters’ Trust AGM & Q&A on Tuesday 19th May at Hillsborough Stadium.
This is a huge opportunity for members to hear directly from the club’s leadership, ask questions and continue building a positive relationship between supporters and SWFC.
Tickets are free to paid members but are expected to go quickly following recent guest announcements. Members should check their email inbox for the Eventbrite link to the event. #SWFC

Understand that Sheffield Wednesday are looking to try and extend Bruno Fernandes' time at the club...
He's out of contract this summer. thewednesdayword.com/p/sheffield-we… #SWFC 🦉⚽️

Barry Bannan back to #SWFC? Maybe some things are just meant to be.
Worth pointing out that when BB left, it was primarily because (from my sources) he had little faith in the then preferred bidders. Had Arise been in situ, I’m sure he’d have stayed.

@domhowson Unfortunately we have so few characters now. Something we could really do with improving.

Glenn Loovens on the honour of skippering #SWFC - and the great characters he had around him.
He was a leader on and off the pitch. A captain who got it. 🫡

@YesWeCrann Mistakes and injury prone. Be a massive mistake to keep him.

Understand there's interest in Dominic Iorfa from higher up the English pyramid as his #SWFC contract draws to a close... His 222nd game for the club could've been his last.
No definite answer has been given on his future yet. thewednesdayword.com/p/dominic-iorf… #SWFC

@TheStarOwls That’s the thing. Youth football is where he belongs. First team is too much for him.

Henrik Pedersen is hoping his experience in youth football will serve Sheffield Wednesday well as they move into a new era

@storchyowl @michaelestorch Please can the exciting news be a new manager.
English
Although still basking in the glow from our dream like Saturday, this past week was one of rolling up our sleeves and going to work in preparation for the summer and beyond. David B, @michaelestorch and I met with the leadership team advancing our plans for the training pitch, summer training schedule for the squad, spent time assessing current squad, addressed multiple work plans for Hillsborough, starting with critical safety items work beginning this Monday and more.
Our countdown till start of Cup series is 91 calendar days . Lots to do in short window but the team led by David Bruce is committed to do so.
We will keep you updated on our progress. Expect some exciting news next week .
Wishing everyone all the best,
David, Michael, Tom and David

@storchyowl @michaelestorch @swfc If you’re really serious about wanting the best for us @storchyowl you really have to replace Pedersen as manager. He’s a lovely man but he’s not cut out to be a successful manager.
English
Greatest son, husband, father, brother, uncle and business partner of all time ! Love you @michaelestorch . And he just adores everything @swfc. Just watch him in action teamed with the likes of Tom Costin, David Bruce +more to follow… watch out, we are talking powerful! #wawaw
Michael Storch@michaelestorch
Really feeling the blues today sat on my flight back to Chicago after one of the best days of my life on Saturday. Wishing we could do it all over again. I’ll never forget the welcome you, the fans, gave to me and my family. Getting to meet so many of you was so much fun. After a long and tough process, I want to thank my dad and business partner @storchyowl for believing in this and finding a way. When many could not see a path forward, he kept pushing us all to find it. We had some great meetings with David Bruce and Henrik this week and there really is just so much to do but I’m incredibly energized. This is going to be an awesome journey. I’ll be back soon! #uto #wawaw
