'Guardiola or Klopp wouldn't change a thing' - Owls fans on Pedersen appointment
We asked for your views on the appointment of Henrik Pedersen as the new manager of Sheffield was previously Danny Rohl's assistant at Hillsborough and replaces the German after he left the club on are some of the thoughts of Owls fans on the new man at the - Pedersen knows the players and playing style which is a bonus, but it's just a small shining light in what is just a bleaker than bleak outlook right - Only time will tell but he must be nuts to hang around the club at the - Even if we have a change in ownership, relegation is pretty much a certainty, so at least we have someone in charge who wants to be there and can maybe inspire a bit of pride and fighting spirit in the skeleton squad we have - Appointing Pep Guardiola or Jürgen Klopp wouldn't change a thing at this point. The club is a sinking ship. Everything that is wrong with modern football is epitomised in what has happened at Sheffield - Looking at his record he's nowhere near fit to be manager of this club. But is the best we could hope for in these circumstances - let's hope he's the brains behind the Danny Rohl - I wish him all the best but he is on a hiding to nothing. With everything that is going on at the club there is no hope at all. We can't recruit players, we can't keep our players and we can't pay them - what chance does he have of success?Adam - Good luck to Henrik. Unfortunately, it's a bit like giving the new captain of the Titanic a teaspoon to help with the rising - Got to admire the man for taking on an impossible job, but he must be crazy! Possibly exactly what we - Will there be much of a club left to manage? I can't help but think that unless something major changes and changes soon that there won't - We have got to give him a chance and get behind what's left of the team. Plus who would want to come to Hillsborough with the current state of affairs?

Hillsborough: Mayor urged to oppose ex-Sun editor's new role
A Hillsborough survivor's partner has called on the mayor of the Liverpool City Region to press the Prime Minister to reconsider appointing a former Sun editor to a senior government communications Rogers, whose husband survived the 1989 disaster, told Steve Rotheram that the appointment of David Dinsmore had "created a lot of anger and distress amongst families and undermined the government's credibility".The Sun apologised 23 years later for its front page which made unfounded claims blaming Liverpool fans in the immediate aftermath of the stadium crush, in which 97 supporters Dinsmore's appointment to the role was confirmed by Whitehall on Wednesday night. Ms Rogers said anti-Sun feeling in Liverpool was still so strong, especially amongst survivors and relatives of those who on BBC Radio Merseyside's Hot Seat phone-in, Rotheram said David Dinsmore "shouldn't be anywhere near a senior government role, I don't think". He said that even though the paper had apologised for its reporting many people still believed the false narrative that fans had been to said the prospect of Mr Dinsmore taking on the role "sent shivers down my spine." He said he accepted that the appointment was a civil service role, not a political one, and that Sir Keir Starmer would not have taken part in the appointment the appointment, Cabinet Secretary Chris Wormald said: "I'm confident that under David's leadership the government communication service will take advantage of the rapidly evolving media landscape and go from strength to strength."Mr Dinsmore said: "It is an honour to be asked to lead this important mission at such a pivotal moment."Clear and engaging communications are central to public trust, policy delivery, and national resilience." Meanwhile, Charlotte Hennessey, whose father Jimmy was one of the 97 fans killed, has been part of the campaign calling for a Hillsborough Law and asked Rotheram about progress on its said Sir Keir had "made pledges in our city" regarding the Hillsborough Law and asked Rotheram how he would feel about the Prime Minister coming back to Liverpool for Labour Party conference in September when it remains undelivered."My concern is it won't be delivered before the conference," she responded by saying he thought it was heading in the right direction and he would rather get the legislation right than rush for a potential date for the law to be introduced, Rotheram said he thought it could have "quite a quick passage" through the Parliamentary process, but it would need to be acceptable to the Hillsborough Keir told Labour's conference last year that he would introduce it in time for the 36th anniversary of the disaster in April. That deadline was missed. During a session of Prime Minister's Questions last month, Deputy PM Angela Rayner said legislation would be brought forward "as soon as we're confident they will deliver the justice victims deserve."The Hillsborough Law would introduce a legal responsibility for public servants to tell the truth – referred to as a duty of candour. It would also ensure legal funding is provided to people affected by future establishment cover-ups or state disasters.

Sheffield Wednesday crisis deepens as safety concerns shut Hillsborough's North Stand
Sheffield Wednesday have been banned from opening Hillsborough's North Stand to spectators due to safety concerns, further compounding the challenges facing the crisis-hit club before the new Championship season. With Wednesday currently under an EFL transfer embargo, and Danny Rohl departing as manager earlier this week, a prohibition notice issued by Sheffield City Council means another problem has hit the club's ownership, led by the Thai businessman Dejphon Chansiri. Wednesday's first home game of the season is on Saturday 16 August, against Stoke City. Sheffield City councillor Joe Otten said the decision had been taken following an assessment 'by engineering specialists who can no longer confirm that the North Stand is safe for spectator use'. Previous meetings of the local Safety Advisory Group, first reported by the BBC, had observed there was corrosion in trusses supporting the roof of the stand, as well as insecure electrical wiring and cracks in the terracing itself. The North Stand was built in the 1960-61 season and holds a capacity of 9,255 spectators, many of whom are season-tickets holders. The stand also provides access for supporters with disabilities, with 54 wheelchair spaces and accessible seating for up to 360 people. They are now left waiting to know whether they will be able to watch their team during the upcoming campaign, which begins in a little over a week's time. Wednesday are under a transfer embargo and subject to EFL fee restrictions until the end of the summer window following a previous failure to pay transfer fees on time. Further sanctions could be forthcoming if the club fail to make payroll at the end of this month for what would be the fourth time in five months. Reports in the Sheffield Star have suggested the bill for repairs in the North Stand could reach seven figures. In a statement published on their website, the club said: 'Sheffield Wednesday can confirm that, following a recent meeting with the local Safety Advisory Group, Sheffield City Council has today issued a Prohibition Notice preventing the use of the North Stand at Hillsborough. 'The club are continuing to work with the Safety Advisory Group to satisfy their concerns such that the North Stand remains open. Additional information is currently being obtained, and we will provide further updates to our supporters at the earliest possible opportunity.'

Your views: Rohl exit 'the culmination of a sorry saga'
We asked for your reaction to the news Sheffield Wednesday boss Danny Rohl has left the German spent 21 months in the hot-seat at Hillsborough and leaves behind a club in is what some Wednesday fans have been telling us:Patrick - As much as I hate to see this you cannot blame him - so much potential and heart, currently too good for our beleaguered club being torn apart girder by girder. I hope when the club is eventually sold it will rise stronger back from the ashes left by Chansiri. Rob - Rohl's departure is the culmination of a sorry saga at Hillsborough and all the blame lies with an intransigent chairman who is clearly out of his depth, and funds. This could all have been avoided midway through last season had Rohl been given the chance, and money, to strengthen his squad during the transfer window. Graeme - Danny handled the situation very badly, we all know that for anyone working for Chansiri, it's always going to be a very rocky road, but to tout himself about and to fail as he did in securing a new role, whether or not his release clause was the reason, it created an untenable position that simply would never have worked. Having said that, thanks for the memories Danny and good luck for the future, I've a feeling you're going to need it, you have damaged your reputation big style!Steve - Right decision - I think he's begun to believe his own hype a little too much, the fact nobody was prepared to pay the release speaks volumes. Let us not forget that the home record last season was shocking. Would you pay five million pounds for a coach with that record?Dex - Disaster after disaster. Why come back at all then leave the club two weeks before the season starts? Tainted his good work at the - The players didn't want him, the fans didn't want him after he spent all summer trying to flaunt himself to any available club. A really sour end for me to a man that could have become a legend at this club after the past two - Danny Rohl's departure is no surprise. The club lacks the ambition to match his - no money, losing assets. Loved Danny, his ethic, his passion but Wednesday is not the club to match his career projection - Although you cannot believe everything you read, I wasn't expecting Rohl to come back to pre-season training. When he did and I heard the players staying were not happy, I thought he might not last especially as there is no buyer in the pipe line. It shouldn't have been allowed to get to this stage - the fans have been asking for it to be sold for a long time. Chansiri should have cut his losses long - The unfortunate thing for most Wednesday fans is that Rohl was seen as someone with the potential (with the right backing) to finally take us back to the Premier League. Rohl, being one of the youngest managers in the league, had the opportunity to continue the work he has started, expanding on what has been a very solid two years and to potentially lead us in to a bold new - Rohl has let himself down with no thought given to the club and their fans. He has thought of no one but himself. His initial impact kept us in the championship however the momentum stalled badly. I'm glad he has gone but sad at the state of the club.
