The Owls’ latest success came at Portsmouth, where Josh Windass’ goals settled the content and stretched their lead at the top of League One to three points and with two games in hand.
Despite the weather, a huge number of Wednesday fan made the journey to see the victory, one that was borne out of hard work, as Darren Moore stated.
“It took character,” he said. “That’s the word. We needed to show that character. This is a former stomping ground of mine, so I kno the club and what the fans can generate. There were 18,000 fans here today and the atmosphere was there. They brought the atmosphere today and the boys were not only competitive in their challenges, they had to deal with the crowd as well.
“There’s a good experience in this group, there’s a good togetherness with them, a good bond with them. They’re going about their work well today and they got the three points today. I told them how proud I was in their performance in terms of the mentality and character they’ve shown.”
