and live on Freeview channel 276
The Owls are likely to be short of a number of players against the Grecians as they lock horns in the FA Cup this weekend, and Taylor admits that he’s not really sure what team to prepare for as they make the visit to St. James Park.
Several youngsters are expected to make the trip to Exeter, and Taylor says his side need to be on the front foot if they’re going to get themselves a result.

“I want to lead that game in terms of all the stats - running stats, efforts on goal, all the bits and pieces like possession. I want us to play on the front foot and play well.
“I’ve got no idea what to expect from Sheffield Wednesday, but there will still be good players, I can guarantee that!
“They’re a club of that stature and that history for a reason - but we’ll never have a better opportunity than this weekend.”
Wednesday face Exeter on Saturday afternoon at 3pm.
