It’s matchday again!
It’s been a busy old day over at Hillsborough, and it’s not getting any quieter for Darren Moore as the Sheffield Wednesday manager prepares to take his side into their final preseason friendly of the summer against Port Vale tonight.
Wednesday made two exciting signings this afternoon, snapping up Bailey Peacock-Farrell and Lewis Wing on loan from Burnley and Middlesbrough respectively, and no doubt the Owls boss will be eager to get them out on the field this evening at Vale Park.
It wasn’t all good news though, with Moore revealing that Josh Windass is set to be out for a ‘considerable amount’ of time following his injury, while Barry Bannan is being rested as a precaution for tonight’s encounter.
We’ll be here throughout to bring you all the updates - and hopefully SWFC can end their 2021/22 preparations with a win ahead of their return to competitive action.
