It is with profound disappointment that the Sheffield Wednesday Supporters Trust must issue yet another statement regarding the club's ongoing financial turmoil.
Despite our earnest plea for transparency and immediate resolution to the delayed player salaries, the club has remained conspicuously silent.
The Trust finds this lack of communication and accountability utterly unacceptable. Our request for full disclosure of the financial issues was directed at ensuring the continued operation and reputation of our beloved club, and it is disheartening to see these concerns met with such disregard.
Ian Bennett, Chair of the SWST, states, “The fans have shown unwavering support and financial commitment to the club through season ticket purchases and other means, and they deserve much better than this. The chairman's failure to address the situation only deepens the fans' unease and threatens to erode the trust and loyalty that have been the backbone of Sheffield Wednesday for generations.”
• We demand immediate action and a comprehensive explanation from the club's leadership.
• We want the fans, players, and staff to know the truth about the club’s financial health and the steps being taken to rectify the current crisis.
• We want to know what the plan is to move the club forward
Ignoring these legitimate concerns is not only disrespectful to the supporters but also detrimental to the club’s future.
In solidarity with the fans and in the best interest of Sheffield Wednesday, we urge all fan groups with Sheffield Wednesday at heart, to press for the transparency and accountability that our club desperately needs.
Enough is enough.
