# Sheffield Wednesday: Fans slam Garry Monk’s update on training

**[Sheffield Wednesday have released a statement](https://www.swfc.co.uk/news/2020/may/owls-set-for-monday-return/) from Garry Monk who has confirmed his side are ready to report to training.**

The Owls will return to match training next week in phased groups ahead of the hopeful restart of the Championship season.

English football has been put on hold for more than two months now, with March being the last time a ball was kicked on the professional stage.

In a recent EFL board meeting, it was decided that training would recommence as of May 25, with the outlook to restart the 2019/20 season on June 6. However, clubs believe a later resumption date of June 13 is more likely in order to align with the Premier League (via [BBC Sport](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52651502)).
