SACKED: Hillsborough erupts as Sheffield Wednesday fans demand Henrik Pedersen dismissed

Pressure continues to build around Sheffield Wednesday head coach Henrik Pedersen as frustration grows among supporters following a run of mixed performances. While the Owls remain within reach of their short-term objectives, recent displays at Hillsborough have sparked audible discontent, with fans raising concerns over results, tactical decisions, and a lack of attacking sharpness.
The latest league outing once again highlighted familiar issues, as Wednesday struggled to turn possession into clear-cut chances. Boos were heard at full-time, and sections of the home crowd made their feelings known, urging improvement as the club loses ground in the Championship table. Despite occasional flashes of promise, consistency has so far proved difficult to achieve under Pedersen.
Pedersen, who took charge earlier in the season, has defended his methods and insists progress is being made behind the scenes. Speaking after the match, he pointed to injuries and squad transition as contributing factors, while reiterating his belief in the long-term vision at the club. “We are building something,” he said. “It doesn’t always show immediately, but the players are committed and responding.”
Club officials are understood to be closely monitoring the situation but have maintained public backing for the Danish coach. However, with a demanding run of fixtures approaching, results over the coming weeks are expected to play a crucial role in easing tensions. For now, the mood around Hillsborough reflects a fanbase eager for momentum — and a manager under growing scrutiny to deliver it.
