Well, it was a case of football being back at Hillsborough as the main focus after a
00:09
really long week of speculation regarding Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Roll. Southampton
00:14
strongly linked with him in the media throughout the week, Germanside, Hamburg mentioned as
00:19
a potential destination as well. The week ended with speculation dying and Roll reaffirming
00:24
his commitment to the club, allowing full focus on events at Hillsborough for when Stoke
00:28
City were the visitors in S6. There was very little to write home about until Deshaun
00:32
Bernard was sent off, a second yellow card for a cynical foul to make up for a mistake.
00:38
To be honest, he was fortunate not to have been sent off before that as well. Very similar
00:42
instance where he just missed just the flight of the ball and brought his man down. Two
00:47
yellow cards, can't really have any argument from a Wednesday point of view. Fans could
00:51
have been forgiven for fearing the worst at that point. You're a man down against a side
00:56
in Stoke who have some, certainly on purpose, some really good attacking players. But Wednesday
01:01
really tore the script up, emerged from the second half with a lot more energy than their
01:05
opponents, a lot more zip, a lot more determination. They were a man down but they didn't look
01:10
it and that was the most important thing. Went 2-0 up, both goals coming in similar
01:13
fashion actually, crossing from the right, smart finish from close range. It was Josh
01:17
Windass who got the first from a Jan Valerie cross and the second came with Callum Patterson
01:21
scoring from a Shea Charles delivery. There was more drama to come, Tom Cannon giving
01:26
a penalty in pretty dubious circumstances, James Beadle stepping up to save the Stoke
01:32
striker's shot. Then it was a case of just holding firm and that's exactly what Wednesday
01:36
did. A massive, massive three points to head into the festive period with a renewed sense
01:41
of optimism after what's been a pretty long week at Hillsborough. There will have been
01:45
a lot of Wednesday fans fearful this week and as you can perhaps hear in the background
01:50
there's a lot of very happy fans leaving Hillsborough today. Sheffield Wednesday 2, Stoke City 0
01:54
at Hillsborough. Read more over at yorkshirepost.co.uk
