The Owls take on The Hammers

Last updated : 05 August 2009 By C. Morris

Sheffield Wednesday take on West Ham United on Sunday in a fixture that will test both sides. West Ham will be bringing 2 squads to Worksop to play the Owls.
After their triumph at the Umbro Tournament this will be Wednesday’s toughest game this pre-season.

Daniel Duke commented – “We have had some great results through pre-season but this is where it all starts, at the Umbro's we beat Everton, Portsmouth and Hibernian and drew with Blackburn and the squad performances were outstanding, but this is the real thing. This is the standard of teams we will be playing week in week out. I have a squad of 18 – 20 players that want to play in 11 positions, the competition for shirts is fantastic and we have become a complete squad. Pre-season training has been the best I have ever known, and all the girls want to do now is start playing competitively, there is a belief in the camp, throughout the players and staff that something special is on the horizon and this game is our marker”.
