KYLE JOSEPH is on his way to SWFC
The Night-Owl replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Could do with his energy in the side. Something we seemed to lack at times last season. He doesn't have the finishing or scoring threat of Alfie May but sounds like he has lots of energy, can be efficient aerially in both boxes and bring others in to play. The likes of Kyle Joseph and Elliot Anderson are the types of signings we need to make to bring some energy, dynamism and youthful exuberance and extra ability into the squad, especially after the solid experienced quality signings we've made so far. -
Norwich's home shirt is my favourite so far too

Hibs' pale green and white 'cabbage' away kit by Joma. Dubbed the Cabbage Kit in a nod towards the clubs Cockney rhyming slang nickname ‘The Cabbage and Ribs‘. The Hibs away shirt is white with a pale green image of the Leith Stadium on the front.

Partick Thistle are also bringing out a commemorative kit based on their mascot Kingsley. A tweet from the club reads: "It's OFFICIAL! Our friends@GreavesSports and @ONeills1918 will produce a run of Kingsley kits, including children’s sizes, for sale later this year. "The skipper @RossDocherty1 loves wearing his - you'll be able to purchase yours soon. Watch this space!"

Hellas Verona's new Macron 120th anniversary home shirt. Featuring a tonal cross on the front made up of the club crest repeated and yellow trim. Inside the neckline is the year ‘1903’ as the club will celebrate its 120th anniversary in March 2023.

Wrexham's new away kit

I think newly promoted Forest Green Rovers are the only other team in the division that play in green. Despite that, Plymouth have still produced a third shirt. The away shirt is based upon the shirt they wore in the 1995-96 season at Wembley.

Correct and it was a cracker against Big Ron's struggling but entertaining Coventry City side. I wish we could've kept Degryse for longer he was class.

What do you think of this kit design?
The Night-Owl replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Saw those on Facebook yesterday. The home and away shirts are smart, not sure what's going on with the third shirt. Wouldn't mind us having something like the home and away shirts, they're decent designs but would prefer proper collars. -
Predict your player of the year for next season
The Night-Owl replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
I reckon it might be Marvin this time or one of the Michael's, in more importantly hopefully a promotion season -
All things considered, with the off the field mess, Darren Moore did well last season with recruitment and to turn us from a sinking ship into a top six team. We weren't far off last season, off back of a few years turmoil on and off the pitch. Last season was the first season since Carlos' first season or two where it was about the football on the pitch and not all about off the field nonsense. At times, especially the last few months it was the most I've enjoyed watching Wednesday since Carlos' first season. Hopefully we can kick on from last season's progress and the recruitment so far looks very good for this level. Good luck to Moore, at times to be honest I've doubted him but he did well last season and this season we should have a better chance of promotion, it will be a tough league again but hopefully we'll go up this time.

Smith is a quality signing. What about Ihiekwe? Stockdale, Vaulks and Smith are quality signings for this level. Heneghan I'm not so sure about but might prove to be a smart signing. We look like we're strengthening with players that have done well at this level and above, we should have a decent chance to push on from last seasons progress and realistically be in the automatic promotion mix next season.

Be two very good signings, as are Stockdale and Vaulks. Maybe it turned their heads when Vaulks signed. If true and they both sign, they're both very good players at this level and exactly what we need, along with Stockdale and Vaulks. These are the types of signings that will help us push on from the progress made last season and give us an even better and more realistic chance of promotion next season. I really hope it's true and they both sign because along with all of our other signings, they're very good for this level, know how to get promoted to the Championship and will give us genuine optimism and excitement for next season.

Will Vaulks Welcome to Sheffield Wednesday F.C.
The Night-Owl replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Delighted with that, an impressive signing for this level. A player that's decent in the Championship and at this level, he's the type of signing we've needed to make for years. Being a Welsh Owl and having a sister that's a Cardiff City season ticket holder and following Wales, Vaulks is a player I've seen a lot of and I think he will improve us as a team and improve our midfield. A midfield three of Vaulks, Byers and Bannan (with the likes of FDB, Adeniran and Hunt as back up) should be formidable at this level. Along with the solid signing of Stockdale, it's good business and should help us progress even more from last seasons progress. We just need to improve our defence and attack now, and get in some younger energetic players in on loan and we'll have an even better chance of promotion next season. -
* The 1984-87 Umbro home shirts sponsored by MHS and Finlux TV and the 1978-81 home and away shirts of the Jack Charlton and Terry Curran era are my honourable mentions and among my fave ever Wednesday shirts too but are from before I was a supporter of Wednesday and so I associate the shirts in my top more memorably with my time following Wednesday
