Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday are a team far from their best. But the fighting spirit that has taken them to the heart of the League One title race was raised late on ...

Moore’s decision to remove Cameron Dawson from the firing line in place of David Stockdale was a bold one and followed the precedent set back in December when roles were reversed. That is slammed the post was a gut-wrench – what a moment that could have been. Though their run of matches without a win was stretched to four, the nature of their fightback will be the optimists’ talking point. A former player of Darren Moore’s at Doncaster Rovers, he came in with four in four – and showed every piece of confidence you’d expect. How it must have dropped when Will Vaulks’ shot raced towards the Robins’ goal in the last second. Seven minutes later a headache turned migraine when May made it two.

Wide after James' ball in from the left, decent chance for a leveller there in the 86th minute Aidan Keena and Alfie May put them 2-0 up, but Aden Flint and Lee Gregory responded for the Owls during a hugely entertaining game in wet conditions. Cheltenham Town were denied a famous victory after title-chasing Sheffield Wednesday hit back from 2-0 down to rescue a point at the Completely-Suzuki Stadium.

JUST a fortnight ago, Sheffield Wednesday's progress around the League One circuit was looking as imperious as Galopin Des Champs' recent masterclass on ...

The breathless action continued at both ends and Wednesday showed a fighters' heart. Wilks and Gregory missed chances before the latter had his moment, from Smith's low centre. Instead had to settle for a point after goals from substitute Aden Flint - his first in Owls’ colours - and Lee Gregory, with the latter levelling three minutes from time. Then the fun began. They would have taken a point after 75 minutes, for sure. But Wednesday dug deep and showed the stamina, strength and character of a stayer to rescue a point in a remarkable second-half and frantic finale.

The second-placed Owls came from two goals behind to draw 2-2 away to Cheltenham Town in League One tonight.

The results leaves Wednesday one point behind Argyle and with a significantly better goal difference but they are now on the same number of games. Argyle have not played since they won 2-0 away to Accrington Stanley last Tuesday, but they have seen two of their promotion rivals slip up since then. Sheffield Wednesday missed out on a second opportunity in four days to replace Plymouth Argyle at the top of League One as they drew 2-2 away to Cheltenham Town tonight. Referee Paul Howard added on six extra minutes at the end of the second half but there was to be no late winning goal for either side.

Sheffield Wednesday boss Darren Moore didn't want to give too much away when he was quizzed on the fitness of George Byers and Josh Windass.

That’s because both have proven themselves to be top players at this level, so it was going to be difficult to bring similar quality into the XI. Whilst the Owls remain in a good position to win automatic promotion, that form has left fans concerned, and they’re desperate to have the duo back for the run-in. And, it’s fair to say the pair have been missed, with the draw at Cheltenham last night extending Wednesday’s winless run to four.

The post-match transcript from Owls' boss Darren Moore after his side came from 2-0 down to seal a much-needed point and snap their losing streak.

But they know about it and they have to keep working and be ready for the next opportunity. There's a lot of football still to be played and that's against all sorts of teams with something to play for. When I look back at the goals conceded in the last week or so they've more or less been self-inflicted and down to a lack of concentration. Depending on injuries and strains, they may have to go again on Saturday. "He took a knock and then stayed down for a bit then got up but wasn't moving right so he was clearly disturbed by it. I don't know if he landed (awkwardly) or whether it was a challenge." Greggers gets on the end of it and we get back to 2-2 but we were certainly looking to win it tonight." "The game was starting to get stretched and then we go two goals down and have to respond. But tonight it was certainly a fighting spirit that we showed and a positive end to the game." I felt we then would have chances to win and we had three to probably go and win it. We don't do enough of what Smudger did and flash balls across the box. We made tweak substitutions and forced the play a little bit more.

A look at four takeaways after Wednesday's thrilling 2-2 draw down in Cheltenham - a result that saw Darren Moore's side again miss out on the chance to go ...

The eve of this game was dominated by talk of who Moore would select in his midfield. The continued absence of George Byers had led to some fans and pundits tipping a left-field change by Moore. The decision to bring David Stockdale back into the side came as a slight eye-raiser when teamsheets landed an hour before kick-off in Gloucestershire. Chances came and went for an unlikely winner for the Owls but it wasn't to be. But even the most ardent of Wednesdayites would be hard-pressed to say that they would have deserved it. No team can be expected to achieve promotion if they continually shoot themselves in the foot as the Owls have done in the space of the last eight days or so.

Darren Moore has revealed the feeling in the Sheffield Wednesday dressing room after they came back to draw 2-2 with Cheltenham Town was disappointment as ...

"We had two, well three, glorious chances to get the winner so we're a bit disappointed. He said: "When Flinty comes on and scores the goal, we felt on the pitch that we'd get the second goal. Dennis Aderniran fired over at the back post and then Will Vaulks struck the post with his edge-of-the-box strike but it wasn't to be.

City's trip to Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday has been made all-ticket for travelling supporters.

The Owls have advised that no further seats will be given to City fans, meaning the only way to secure a spot at the game is to purchase a ticket before 3pm on Friday - or earlier if the allocation sells out. Close to 2,200 Imps are already making the trip to Hillsborough, with just over 200 tickets remaining as of Wednesday morning – with no tickets being made available on the day. Tickets can be purchased in person from the ticket office at the LNER Stadium, by calling 01522 880011 or going to eticketing.co.uk/imps

Stockdale replaced Dawson in goal for Sheffield Wednesday in the 2-2 draw at Cheltenham Town.

However, it was Stockdale who returned to the starting XI for Wednesday against Cheltenham in midweek, his first start in the league since December, with Dawson forced to settle for a place on the bench in that match. However, more recent weeks have arguably seen some less convincing moments creep into his game, and so with Wednesday's promotion push hitting something of a stumbling block in the past few games, it makes sense for Moore to make this alteration, as he looks to change the situation. Prior to last night, the 27-year-old had started each of the Owls last 16 league games, seemingly moving ahead of Stockdale in the pecking order in the process.

“To lose those kinds of players in that adversity has been a blow, but we've got on with it and we've not moaned and we'll continue. Josh is different to Greggers and Smudger where he can come of and create overloads or go in behind. But I won't get drawn into anything just now because I want us to properly assess everything before we give anything out to the supporters in terms of where he is at.

The second-placed Owls, who are now winless in their past four League One matches, had to battle back from two goals down to claim a point.

"I've been in this situation before and people might think 'oh there's only eight games left' but it's a long way away. That's the fighting spirit we expect at Sheffield Wednesday." "From the position we were in it is a point won and the character that the players showed was excellent.

He has that versatility to play in there and we won't discount that.” “The importance is not about their own individual performance, their performance has to be good to reflect on the team.
