That season we finished higher than Wednesday's although we missed out on promotion by goal difference. No idea who pipped us to promotion, can't remember.
Owls beat us at Millmoor 1-0.
I was sat in the side stand and was constantly threatened throughout the second half by a workmate ( Wednesday fan ) who was sat two rows behind me.
That game was as good as the ' divot ' match........Joe McBride anyone !!
