Josh Windass will be helping to fuel our next season in the Championship. 🔴⚪ #WxmAFC
This is arguably Sheffield Wednesday's strongest XI for Leicester on August 10 (4-2-3-1): Charles Valery Iorfa Lowe Palmer Chalobah Ingelsson McNeill Ugbo Lowe Cadamarteri Bannan and Paterson come in if they re-sign. Not a bad side. Just little squad depth. #SWFC 🦉⚽️


💬 “It is a really good move for Alfie May and for Birmingham, especially for him to join a club like Huddersfield who you feel are going to be right in the thick of things this season. "I think he will be a really good signing for them." #htafc examinerlive.co.uk/sport/football…
What a tournament Kelly has had. Great delivery. Superb movement and header from Russo. Game on. #ENGESP
Nobody in their right mind is going to pay anywhere near £100m to buy #SWFC. It’s a completely unrealistic asking price. The club, in its current state, is not even worth half that amount. It’s hard right now to see a sale happening anytime soon. 🦉⚽️
It's hugely important for #SWFC to keep Barry Bannan and Callum Paterson heading into next season. Two big characters in the dressing room with bags of experience. There are going to be some tough times ahead but BB and CP can lift spirits and help guide the younger players. 🦉⚽️


The 🐐 does it again. We're watching a genius at work. A class act on and off the field. 🏏

❌ No public pre-season friendlies ❌ No clarity on the manager situation ❌ No new signings ❌ No official word on the North Stand ❌ No leadership from the top What's happening at #SWFC is a disgrace and the fans deserve so much better. It's totally unacceptable. 🦉⚽️


Leeds United have indeed submitted a bid in excess of €30m (£26.2m) for Igor Paixao Doesn't go beyond €35m (£30.5m) but would make him most expensive summer signing regardless As reported last month, player open to a LUFC move with the right deal #lufc leeds-live.co.uk/sport/leeds-un…
Wrexham boss Phil Parkinson on signing former #SWFC forward Josh Windass: “I’m delighted to welcome Josh to the club. “He’s a player with a lot of Championship experience and I’m looking forward to working with him over the coming seasons.”

🔵⚪️ Underlines Lee Grant's pulling power in the transfer market that 9⃣ of the 1⃣1⃣ players #htafc have signed this summer have joined them from either the Championship or the Premier League. Recruitment drive shows Town mean business next season. examinerlive.co.uk/sport/football…
Paul Heckingbottom on Michael Smith: “A player we know all about from his vast experience in the EFL. “He’s a really intelligent footballer and a brilliant finisher who adds something different to our team. Wi give us a real focal point at the top end of the pitch." #SWFC 🦉⚽️


Former #SWFC striker Michael Smith has joined Championship rivals Preston on a free transfer. Smith has signed a two-year deal. He said: “I’m delighted to get it over the line so quickly. It’s a big club that I want to be a part of." ⚽️🦉

🔵⚪️ Huge statement of intent from #htafc to sign Alfie May. The striker is at the peak of his powers, having scored 9⃣2⃣ goals in the past four season. Takes Town's summer signings up to 10 - and they're not done yet! 👉 examinerlive.co.uk/sport/football…
🔵⚪️ Huddersfield Town are reportedly set to sign Alfie May from Birmingham City in a £1.2m deal. May bagged 16 goals and contributed eight assists in City's title success last season. It's a lot of money to be paying for a 32-year-old striker. #htafc examinerlive.co.uk/sport/football…
Hull City are in talks to sign Akin Famewo. The defender is a free agent, having left #SWFC at the end of June. City are looking to wrap up a deal for Famewo in time for their friendly with Stockport County this weekend. #hcafc ⬇️ hulldailymail.co.uk/sport/football…
From Sheffield Council: "At this stage no decision has been made as to whether a certificate will be issued (for the North Stand at Sheffield Wednesday). A further update will be shared next week." #SWFC
