Screenshots of the messages between the pair were uploaded to social media and quickly went viral before being picked up by several national media outlets.

“Her reaction was pretty much as showed on the messages, she said she was going to dump me,” Joe later joked. “I am in the absolute doghouse.”

Whether the trip goes ahead or not may well be up to Georgia to decide, you feel. But should the pair make the long trip down south next month, they have the offer of a pair of tickets waiting for them after one of Wednesday's players spotted the tale online.

Owls striker Josh Windass – a prolific user of social media – saw the story and wrote: “Hahahaha. Unreal, if you’ve not bought your ticket already, save your money I’ll get you 2”

The match could well be another sell-out as Wednesday fan continue their tour of League One.
