The people have spoken! 🗣️
@swfc's remarkable comeback in the 2023 @SkyBet League One Play-Off Semi-Final has been voted as the greatest #EFLPlayOffs match of all time! 👏

This feels like one of those much needed hugs when you are really really down…

There are 10k more gold shirts available. The profits from any gold shirt purchased between now and Monday will go to Sheffield Wednesday ST #upthetownS

The reporting on #SWFC this week is another reminder how important local media is.
When a club’s in crisis, they’re the ones that step up. That’s why it’s so important to read/share/listen and support them.
It could be your club next.
👏🏻 @AlexMiller91, @YesWeCrann, @robstaton.

We've been chatting to @pauletteish on @BBCSheffield about our Centenary Tree Planting. To find out more about our work to restore iconic moorland trees visit cprepdsy.org.uk/news/restori…🌳

Trump (the genius) is about to place a 200% tax on Guinness the week of St Patrick's Day...

We can all pretend Trump and Vance are some sort of inspired geniuses. Or we can see two soft bullies haranguing a man who has been fighting a war to save his country for three years.

Our Centenary Tree Planting is a heartfelt tribute to our founder Ethel Haythornthwaite - a prominent environmentalist in #Sheffield and a trailblazer of the countryside movement nationally. Donate to bring this project to life centenary-fund.raiselysite.c… #GivingTuesday #Charity

It's been one huge effort and today, our staff are crossing the finish line after a month of running/walking/cycling for @prostateunited 💪
There is still time to donate to our team page if you can!

Thanks to His Honour Judge David Dixon who came in to speak to @sheffjournalism students today about court reporting and why it’s important. A fascinating insight into the criminal justice system.

To stay on X or to go, now that Musk has turned this platform into an incubator for fascism?
I don't blame anyone for leaving. But I'm staying. Why? Because of this solid political principle:
*Never let the far right drive you out of any space.*

You have no idea what our wonderful country is really like and are, like the planet Mars, both toxic and empty.

Couldn’t agree more. Also…Get your shorthand. No audio or video recording in court.
It's times like these that the craft and art of court reporting comes in to its own. So vital that society sees justice being done. Keep up the good work @sophcorcoran

One of the most repulsive, inaccurate and frankly embarrassing headlines in the history of the Daily Telegraph. It has appalled many of its own journalists. It is beneath contempt.

It’s inaccurate to define racist thugs as protestors. BBC TV pls, pls stop it.
This is the story: Far Right groups have attempted to set a hotel in Rotherham alight after rumours circulated that it housed asylum seekers. Several police officers have been injured as they 1/

This is how it's done. You know Axel Rudakubana, accused of the Southport killings, is not an illegal migrant, so you say "ordinary people" think he is. Once upon a time experienced journalists saw it as their job to put people straight.
Barrow Stones. As good a place as any to be with @dpfellrunners on a Wednesday night.
