Academy star Caelan-Kole Cadamarteri is being linked with clubs like Manchester City. Wednesday could make it clear they're willing to negotiate on manager Danny Rohl's release clause, something they should have done weeks ago given what has since occurred at Hillsborough. However, there's something desperately sad about a club selling off assets simply to pay staff who are not on a lot of money and are understandably concerned about when they're going to get their wages in full.

I did the thing you're not supposed to do on Sunday. I went on an internet chat forum to gauge fan opinion. Forums, as with social media, are often a place to vent and let off steam. You can't judge the thoughts of an entire fan base off a few spicy comments online. However, it is at least worth having a glance to see what's being said sometimes – even if it makes for unpleasant viewing for yours truly and my esteemed colleagues from the world of local journalism.

Two things are quite clear - Sheffield Wednesday need a plan for the summer and next season and Danny Rohl is almost certainly not going to be part of that plan. Therefore, isn't it best for all concerned to get this situation sorted as soon as possible? It has been argued, not unfairly, that there is a compensation number attached to Rohl's contract that any potential suitor has to pay. It's Wednesday's prerogative to ask for every penny of it should they wish.

When Danny Rohl spoke after the final game at Watford, it felt like a goodbye. As he reflected on his time at Sheffield Wednesday a lot of the comments were in the past tense. If it is the end, it's fitting the final game was at Vicarage Road where he took charge for the first time in October 2023. The truth is, without Rohl this game could have been 24 miles up the road at Stevenage instead.

Was worth sticking with a quite dull Charlton vs Wycombe game to hear the commentator say: "The moobs are well and truly out there... and why not"

Confirmation — Sheffield United vs Sunderland to kick off at 3pm. The right time, if delayed. #SUFC
