Barry Bannan warned Sheffield Wednesday will be one of the big beasts rattling cages in the Championship after his loyalty to the club paid dividends.
The Owls pied piper turned a deaf ear to all offers when Wednesday were relegated two years ago, and after their dramatic return with a 123rd-minute play-off winner against Barnsley at Wembley he had no regrets about staying.
Bannan said: “I wouldn't have missed the last two years because loyalty works two ways – the club showed me great loyalty by taking me out of the Premier League and giving me games, and in return I've signed two or three contracts since I've been here.
