Welsh76 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 (edited) https://www.swfc.co.uk/news/2020/august/owls-to-face-leicester-in-pre-season/ The Owls can confirm a pre-season friendly against Premier League Leicester City, which will be live streamed with multi-camera coverage on our official YouTube channel. The behind closed doors fixture will take place at the Loughborough University Stadium on Saturday 29 August, with a 12 noon kick-off. Wednesday head to Loughborough next week for a five-day training camp with outstanding facilities deployed by UEFA and the FA for the European Under-17 Championships and international tournaments respectively. The Foxes friendly will be the climax to the Owls’ stint in the Midlands before returning to Sheffield and continuing preparations for the 2020/21 campaign. With fans not permitted to attend games until October at the earliest, the live stream will ensure Wednesdayites can enjoy all the action against Leicester free of charge on YouTube.

alanharper Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 (edited) Hope they're not expecting payment for the honour of them turning up after they've diddled us out of getting a fee for Hirst. Edit - just seen the full article and it's not at Hillsborough so they won't. . Edited August 21, 2020 by alanharper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owls-swfc Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Vardy scores own goal, or gets injury in pre-warm up and therefore not selected as precaution to further aggrivate... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSandersonOWL Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 It would be a fitting occasion to invite D Hirst and N Pearson to be guest players for us! And Leicester could also have 2 ex-Owls: G Hirst, who flew the nest, and J Vardy, who was forcibly ejected! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quist Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 This suggests Wednesday have patched up differences with Leicester. Wouldnot be surprised to see us bring a player or two in on loan fromthem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
