Sheffield Wednesday file for administration

Sheffield Wednesday have filed a notice to appoint an administrator, court records show.

The notice was filed at 10.01am on Friday morning at a specialist companies court.

The club’s financial issues under current owner Dejphon Chansiri have been well-documented, with reports that a winding-up order from HMRC was imminent.

Now, a notice to appoint an administrator has been filed at the Insolvency and Companies Court, which is a specialist court within the High Court.

Wednesday did not make any immediate comment but are expected to release a statement in due course.

Under EFL rules, the club would face a 12-point penalty for entering administration.
