@JakeSwfc1 @Champagneblade @GrantR_1867 Which was done to cover the original overspend that gave you the unfair advantage over others that you all never complained about.

@utd109 @Champagneblade @GrantR_1867 Fairs you’ve just completely ignored what I said then. We never got done for overspending from 2015-2017. We got done because chansiri did a dodgy deal to himself when he sold the stadium

The EFL has sanctioned Sheffield Wednesday consistently since 2018. Over that period, the club has been hit with multiple transfer embargoes spanning nearly a decade. By October 2025, Wednesday were under six simultaneous embargoes — the most any club has ever faced. On top of that, the club has suffered repeated points deductions. A -12 deduction in 2020/21 severely damaged recruitment and momentum going into that season. Although it was later reduced to -6 on appeal, the damage had already been done — those points ultimately proved the difference between survival and relegation to League One. In 2025, the situation worsened further. The club received: •-12 points for entering administration, after the former owner failed to meet basic financial obligations such as paying wages and bills on time •A further -6 point deduction, again due to the owner’s failure to uphold his responsibilities This is not a case of a club gaining an unfair advantage — quite the opposite. The club has been placed at a significant competitive disadvantage for years due to sustained mismanagement. Sheffield Wednesday has endured one of the most damaging ownership periods a club of its size is likely to experience. The former owner’s approach has not only harmed the club financially but also created a toxic environment for staff and supporters alike. And yet, despite this, there is now an expectation that the same owner should be repaid — while the club continues to face further punishment. How can that be justified? The new ownership group should not be penalised for the failures of the previous regime. They should be given the opportunity to restore stability to a club that has lacked it for nearly 26 years. Imposing further sanctions — such as another -15 point deduction, spending caps, business plan restrictions, and transfer limitations — would only deepen the damage. It risks condemning the club to yet another relegation and prolonging the cycle of instability. At some point, there has to be recognition that continued punishment is no longer corrective — it is excessive. The club, its staff, and its supporters deserve the chance to move forward. #FairDealForWednesday @storchyowl

@JakeSwfc1 @Champagneblade @GrantR_1867 & if you had managed to go up when you were breaking the rules it could have been so different. But you didn’t & now you are deservedly dealing with the aftermath. You never complained about the amounts you were spending before so deal with it.

@utd109 @Champagneblade @GrantR_1867 22/23 season famous for our overspending where the entire squad was made up of frees and loans

@JakeSwfc1 @Champagneblade @GrantR_1867 You got punished for breaking financial rules. You had an unfair advantage over others that complied with the rules by spending more than you were allowed to. It’s quite simple.

@Champagneblade @utd109 @GrantR_1867 Go on then name one player from that squad that we couldn’t afford

@stayinghome7 Worth every penny if you can scrape it together. Day out going to a proper ground & proper club.

What is it with these ticket pricing 24 quid for an under 18 robbing bastards #sufc #twitterblades

@BuildsByKB Ashley would be the most suitable. No question. Therefore anyone else I’m ok with.

Let's have a proper footie discussion, aware from the wankery on the pitch... Our club - Povlsen pulled out, Storch and Ashley remain.. Who do you want, and why? Blades - Jump on if you want 😂Rivalry aside this is a proper footie chat about suitability, not a cock measuring contest. #swfc #sufc

@Bradders23Tim Relegated at the lane 😂😂😂 … in February 😂😂😂

@utd109 Wow, you've figured that out, well done you. So bloody stupid you can't see that we've been ready for relegation from before the first kick of the season. 😂😂

For anyone saying "that's never a red card". It's a potential leg breaker. Good luck appealing that one. #swfc #twitterblades

@Bradders23Tim Bit of reading info on the way to Bromley ⬇️ 😂😂😂 skysports.com/football/news/…

@utd109 We probably will 👍😂

@Bradders23Tim I’m not wrong. Enjoy Bromley 👋🏻

@utd109 A lot of words but you're still wrong. Your manager thinks so He won't be appealing about it. Let it go 😂😂

@Bradders23Tim If anything, it should have been a foul for KP than against him it was so late & since when do you lot agree with Wilder

@utd109 Also crucially Wilder "when you slow it down it does look pretty bad" & "sometimes when you've not played a lot of football recently you can get it wrong" Much like you have 😂😂👍

@Bradders23Tim much like your defender should have done considering how late he was. Instead he ran into a follow through after the ball was long gone. What is KP supposed to do - anticipate a late tackle & keep his foot still on the floor 😂 If you have ever kicked a ball you would know.

@utd109 So there's 3 things about this. 1) the defender is trying to block the ball, not tackle 2) Eze's technique is perfect, even if he catches the defender it would be top of his foot, no studs. Not a red. 3) it never happened anyway 😂😂😂

@Bradders23Tim So if Eze had caught the defenders leg following through after the shot, he should be automatically red carded ?

@utd109 Weird reply. Studs up high follow through has been a red card for years.

@Bradders23Tim You’ve never played the game. That foot movement happens hundreds of times per match.

@utd109 You're blaming our player for the studs being half way up his leg 😂 Phillips knew he'd done wrong, his reaction said it all.

@TortosaExpat Brilliant news ♥️

... even typing that now my hand is trembling. From there to now is a miracle. Still in hospital but very much on the mend, probably another week or so getting strong. Thank you so much for your kind messages and well wishes. I can't tell you enough how much it helps. x

This time last week Mrs S was being wheeled into intensive care. Cancer treatment suspended, dehydrated, kidneys failed, blood infection, vitals all over the place. In a bad place. Today she wakes up having being told yesterday she is cancer free!!! We can't quite believe it..

@bdtbl_andy Is Lee Baxter doing anything this weekend ? #twitterblades

Wouldn’t this be a great time to loan them Adam Davies 😂😂😂#twitterblades

@JakeSwfc1 That’s been the case for 20 years, but still only 8 places between us.

@utd109 Biggest gap in terms of quality difference absolutely. Not a single player in our 11 would even make your 25 man squad

If United don’t beat us next Sunday it’ll be the most embarrassing result in steel city derby history. This is probably the biggest gap it’s ever been in terms of quality of squads. Their side is top end championship whilst ours is league 2 level. #swfc #twitterblades

@JakeSwfc1 You said biggest gap ever. The gap is 8 league places. We have hardly had a good season to be sat in 15th place.

@utd109 So that means every other side is equal in the division?

@JakeSwfc1 Last time I checked we were 15th. There are 8 other teams between us 😂

@utd109 Your side is a top end championship side whilst ours is league 2 level. Context is important.
