Sheffield Wednesday File for Administration
Sheffield Wednesday have filed a notice to appoint an administrator, as shown in court records.
The notice was filed at 10:01 a.m. on Friday morning at a specialist companies court due to the club's financial issues under current owner Dejphon Chansiri.
Under EFL rules, the club would face a 12-point penalty for entering administration.
Fans have held protests calling on Chansiri to sell throughout the season, including during Wednesday night's Carabao Cup tie against Middlesbrough at Hillsborough.
Supporters boycotted the game in their thousands in a bid to force Chansiri out.
Wednesday did not make any immediate comment but are expected to release a statement in due course.
No comment from the club.
