The English team finished the season with 0 points.

On the evening of May 2nd, Sheffield Wednesday defeated West Brom 2-1 in the 46th round of the Championship, thus avoiding the prospect of finishing the season with negative points.

Sheffield Wednesday avoided ending the season in negative points.

The Hillsborough team had previously fallen into a serious financial crisis, forcing them into special administration status since last October. As a result, they were deducted a total of 18 points through two separate penalties, causing their survival efforts to collapse very early on.

However, the turning point came at the end of the season. After the takeover by Arise Capital Partners was completed, the organizers of the English Football League (the leagues below the Premier League) decided to reconsider the penalty. As a result, the points deduction was adjusted down to 15 points.

Before kick-off at Hillsborough, Sheffield Wednesday were bottom of the table with -3 points. Therefore, a victory in the final round was a matter of pride and also a positive farewell for the team. After a short three seasons in the Championship, Wednesday accepted their return to League One, much to the regret of their fans.

Under owner Dejphon Chansiri, the club experienced a period of instability with tax debts, delayed salary payments, and a transfer ban. These persistent problems left the team directionless both professionally and financially.

The arrival of this new investment group is expected to usher in a new chapter for Sheffield Wednesday. Not only will it help the club avoid further points deductions, but this deal also lays the foundation for a long-term rebuilding process, aiming for stability and sustainable development.

Wednesday left the Championship with sadness, but not despair. Honor was preserved, and more importantly, a new future has opened up after those dark days.
