Sheffield Wednesday are on the road this evening as FA Cup fourth round action takes centre-stage this weekend for those sides that have made it this far.
The Owls are facing QPR in London tonight, after beating Brighton and Hove Albion away from home last time out in the competition earlier on in the month.
Certainly, it’s a game that they’ll feel they can win with their away form impressive this season but QPR have also done well in recent weeks at home and will be confident that they too can get a win.
It should, then, be an exciting game for both sets of fans and after the Owls lost 5-0 to Blackburn Rovers last time out in the league, they have a particular point to prove.
Tom Lees has referenced that in his pre-match comments, too:

Some Owls fans haven’t been too impressed by this, though, so let’s take a look at what has been said:

I don't think he should be skipper anymore. Struggling to get a place above Borner and Iorfa. Borner future captain I think

Honest yes. But is it just me? He looks well brassed off.. If hes's the captain there is little fight and energy in his tone of voice that would motivate anyone.

He needs to be sold. On too much money, isn’t quick, not a good passer and isn’t the best in the air either.
