Sheffield Wednesday Recap: Injury updates and more from Jaden Brown and Darren Moore pre-Cheltenham Town
and live on Freeview channel 276
We’ve had a bit of team news from the Cheltenham side but now we need to find out what’s happening in the Wednesday camp as Moore and his side look to try and get back to winning ways after three consecutive draws in League One.
Brown has been in and out of the Owls side over the course of the campaign so far, playing in various positions, and will be keen to try and make an impact at the Jonny-Rocks Stadium tomorrow if given the opportunity.

Jaden Brown and Darren Moore’s Sheffield Wednesday press conferences
Key Events
- Jaden Brown spoke to us this morning
- Darren Moore had plenty to say in the afternoon
JB on pressure
We don’t feel the pressure... As footballers we take each game as it comes. That’s the most important thing - and as a group we trust in each other.
JB on boos
They’re understandable. When we’re at home, 1-0 up, and then draw, it’s disappointing and not good enough... We’re honest with ourselves, but there are still a lot of games to go. We want them to believe in us - because we’re going to need them.
JB on the system
If you look at the past few games, we’ve drawn them, but we’ve played different formations. I feel like we’ve been more solid, and it’s something that we’ve been working on in training.
JB on his game
I think I’ve grown as it’s gone on - I think I’ve done alright... I’ve shown a bit of what I can do, but I’ve set standards for myself and there are still things that I think I can do better.
I think I can improve offensively and defensively. I do a lot of work behind the scenes - I won’t say what exactly I need to do, but I’m honest with myself and I know it. So I’m working on that.
JB on Cheltenham
We need to be more ruthless as a team, and we need to kill teams off. Cheltenham will be on us.
JB on his position
I do enjoy playing on the wing, but I’m a left back - that’s what I think is my best position.
It’s always good when the gaffer knows he can trust me in two positions though. So that’s my role.
JB on his games
It’s been tough - I don’t think I did well against Wimbledon, but did better the next game... When you’re in this stage, it’s important that you work hard. And that’s what I’m concentrating on.
JB on fan concern
I can understand... We’re a bit club, and every team that comes against us is always at 100%. We love the fans, we love playing at home. And when we don’t get three points for them then it’s disappointing - but we need to stick together as a club, which is not just the players - it’s the fans as well.
JB on Wednesday’s start
With the squad and ability we have... The feeling is that we could be doing better. But we’re still trying to get the chemistry right with the new formation - I think that’s going quite well to be fair though.
Of course we need time to settle in, and I think we haven’t hit the ground yet.
The past few games, like Wimbledon and Cambridge, I think we played quite well. We should have picked up three points from all of our last three games. We need to be more ruthless.
While you’re waiting...

Too much of a good thing from Sheffield Wednesday? – Joe Crann’s column
Respect is, of course, a good thing. But from a Sheffield Wednesday perspective this season, it feels like they’re giving their opponents a bit too much of it.
