Sean Roberts realised his dream of playing in English football with Sheffield Wednesday, even if his stay was somewhat brief...

We ventured slightly further afield with this week’s episode, speaking to South African international, Sean Roberts, who signed for the Owls as a teenager back in the early 2000s, making his one and only appearance in a last-gasp win over Burnley where he replaced the great Kevin Pressman.

In the latest edition of ‘All Wednesday’ he talks to us about what it was like making that move from Johannesburg to Sheffield, how he found working with the likes of ‘difficult man, but top player’ Gerald Sibon, and how he did have his wrists slapped a couple of times for maybe enjoying his youth a little bit too much during his academy days.
