Representatives of Sheffield Wednesday Supporters’ Society (Wednesdayite) and the Sheffield Wednesday Shareholders’ Association (SA) met on Monday with Geoff Sheard who heads up one of the two consortia linked with a possible takeover of the football club.

Wednesdayite ’s 10% shareholding, together with those held by members of the SA, could become important if and when either consortium can reach agreement with the three main football club shareholders (ex-chairman Dave Allen, director Geoff Hulley and ex-director Keith Addy) for the acquisition of their combined 30% shareholding.
