It would appear the cat at Hillsborough last night has been missing since June last year and is now being reunited with its owner. It's almost like the world knew we needed a positive football/cat story. #swfc

Spare a thought for Stephen Quinn who charged up the other end after scoring like some kind of BTEC Emmanuel Adebayor in the PAPA JOHN’S TROPHY only for his side then to lose in stoppage time. Poor sod. #swfc

All you ask for in a player that pulls on your club’s shirt is that, while they’re in it, it means as much to them as it does to you. Unfortunately often not the case, not an accusation you can level at Sam Hutchinson. Would love to see him back in another capacity one day. #swfc

He doesn’t get things right on the pitch all the time (who does?) and Wednesday may well not get promoted. But Darren Moore is a salt of the earth bloke who has gone a long, long way to repairing what was a broken football club. Got loads of time for the fella. #swfc

Last season was an absolute shambles at #SWFC … Multiple managers, unpaid players, potential walkouts, points deductions & transfer embargoes. Darren Moore has settled things down, reached the Play-Offs and started to fix the connection between the club/fans. Deserves credit.
