The Wednesday Week

It's been one of the most turbulent weeks in recent Sheffield Wednesday history — and that's saying something.

In this episode, we break down a chaotic timeline that saw confirmation of another missed wage payment, the start of 15-day notice periods, and the very real threat of player walkouts. As news filters in that at least six players have handed in notice, we look at how the club arrived at this crisis — and what might happen next.

We also cover:

⚠️ Emergency funds falling short

⚠️ Coaching staff in limbo

⚠️ A third EFL embargo

It’s been another chaotic week at Hillsborough, and we’re here to break it all down. From takeover drama involving US bidders and John Textor, to Milan Mandaric stepping back, to fresh doubts over Danny Röhl’s future — plus embargo news, unpaid wages, and preseason upheaval. We cover the lot, including fixture news and what comes next for SWFC. Join us for all the latest on Sheffield Wednesday!

We are back with the last seven days run through of what's been happening in the world of Sheffield Wednesday.

This week we have had a previous owner interviewed and saying he's flying in. Confirmation that the club has been placed in a three window transfer restriction and the sad news that this years Owls in the Park has been cancelled with only ten days to go.

Its not easy being a SWFC fan at the moment but lets hope this is the start of something changing at the club.

In this special episode of The Wednesday Week, we’re joined by Sheffield Wednesday Women’s striker Amy Broomhead – or should we say… Broomdog. That’s right, a new nickname is born as Amy talks us through her life leading the line for the Owls, her biggest footballing highs, and what really goes down in the changing room.

We find out who’s rocking the worst dress sense (it’s bad… like, really bad), who needs their Spotify privileges revoked, and what Amy needs to function on matchday (hint: snacks may be involved). It’s goals, giggles, and a proper good...

In this episode, we begin with a considered discussion of the recent timeline of events at Hillsborough. However, the conversation takes an unexpected turn as we're interrupted by yet another interview with prospective SWFC owner Adam Shaw. Dan responds with an impassioned 15-minute monologue that encapsulates the frustrations of many Wednesdayites. Alongside the usual insights and light-hearted moments, we also delve into some historical context behind the current situation.

Well, Owls fans, the dust has settled, the final whistle’s blown, and it's time for one of the highlights of the year – The Wednesday Week End of Season Awards!"

Sheffield Wednesday have dropped their retention list — and with it, the first real glimpse of what’s to come.

It’s a day of mixed emotions: joy for those staying, reflection and sadness for those moving on.

Think of it as “Real Life Contract Tinder” — swipe right to stay, swipe left to say goodbye.

Let’s take a look at who’s in, who’s out, and what it means for the Owls going forward.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It’s been a rollercoaster campaign for the Owls — a season marked by misfiring strikers, fan protests, and more statements than wins at home on a Saturday at 3pm

Despite the turbulence, Danny and his squad managed to steady the ship, securing a respectable mid-table finish. There were moments of promise, with brief flirtations with the playoff spots, but consistency proved elusive as the season drew to a close.

So, where did it all unravel?

What was the turning point?

And can the season be considered a success?

"The final whistle has blown on Sheffield Wednesday's season, ending with a 1-1 draw away at Watford — and there's no shortage of talking points in our last game review of the campaign. Stevie, Ash, Hollie, and Dan are here to break it all down."

"Will Danny Röhl still be at the helm next season after flying home straight after the match? We're asking the big questions."

"We're also debuting a brand new segment: Contract Tinder — who are we swiping right on, and who’s getting the boot?"

"And finally, where does Josh Windass...

Last Friday night under the lights, the Owls made the trip over the pennines to visit Turf Moor where they faced the unenviable task of attempting to end Burnley’s record-breaking run of clean sheets. 

On this week’s show, Stevie is on hosting duties and is joined by Ash, Jon and our latest TWW Cup Squad member Beth to discuss whether we were better than the scoreline suggests, or whether once again we fluffed our lines against a team vying for promotion. 

The team also attempt to digest this week’s ticket pricing...

Ahead of this Friday’s trip to Lancashire to face promotion-chasing Burnley, Stevie talks to Joe from @TurfCastPodcast to see how they see their season progressing under Scott Parker.

In the midst of a record-breaking run of clean sheets, are The Clarets concerned about their inability to convert draws into victories? Who should we be looking out for? Do Burnley see themselves going up automatically, or falling into the lottery of the Play-Offs?

Its like Deja Vu, yes you've guessed it were playing Coventry City again!!!!! and that means we are joined by Dean from  @SkyBluesExtra  to preview Saturdays upcoming game.

With 14 games to go both teams are in touching distance of the playoffs and each will be hoping to keep in the mix with three points at Hillsborough. Coventry come into the game under a good run so does this Dean is confident or does he think Danny Rohl's team will take the points. Also Dean is a massive fan of our home at S6.

There's no escaping that will be 2 points dropped at home to Luton Town. A very well taken penalty against the struggling ex-premier league club rescued a point for the Owls.
