Sheffield Wednesday fans are furious with owner Dejphon Chansiri and the English Football League (EFL) for failing to protect the club from his controversial decisions, per BBC Sport. Fan Ryan Goodison, 40, expressed frustration, stating, “The EFL has done nothing,” comparing the situation to Morecambe’s struggles. Chansiri, who passed the EFL’s owners’ test in 2015, reportedly rejected £30m and £40m bids this summer, with fans deeming his valuation excessive.
The EFL’s rules focus on proof of funds at purchase, not ongoing financial stability, but the incoming Independent Football Regulator (IFR) could revoke licenses for mismanagement. Fans plan to protest by delaying entry at the Leicester City away game on August 10, 2025. The Sheffield Wednesday ownership crisis fuels ongoing unrest.
