The Owls job is one often highly sought after and, with plenty of time left for a turnaround, is expected to be again despite the dificult situation that they find themselves in.
Neil Warnock is a name that splits opinion in the Owls fanbase but is surely a prime footballing candidate given the fire-fighting jobs he has done at so many clubs down the years.
The Star understands that Nathan Jones is under consideration.
Let’s take a look at some of the out-of-work names that Wednesday could consider to get their season back on track.

14. Mick McCarthy
A man constantly linked with the Wednesday job in recent years, McCarthy is local to the area and has expressed interest in taking them on before. No nonsense and has a strong record in the second tier down the years, but was recently relieved of his duties at Cardiff having failed. Photo: Gareth Copley/Getty Images

16. Danny Cowley
Left Portsmouth last year having ultimately failed to drive the club towards their long-awaited promotion from League One. Was interviewed for the Owls job a few years back, but there’s no love lost between Cowley and Chansiri after the Owls owner name-checked him at a recent fan forum. Photo: Alex Morton/Getty Images
