Sheffield Wednesday have announced that manager Darren Moore has left the club by mutual consent in a shock exit.
His backroom staff follow him out of Hillsborough, three weeks after winning the play-off final to achieve promotion to the Championship. Ex-West Brom defender and former Jamaica international Moore, 49, had been in charge of the Owls since March 2021 and led a remarkable campaign last season, culminating in an epic finish at Wembley.
Wednesday sensationally beat South Yorkshire rivals Barnsley in the last minute of extra-time during May's League One play-off final, but that moment of drama from goalscorer Josh Windass was just the tip of the iceberg. In the semi-finals, Wednesday were stunned by Peterborough - a team they'd finish 19 points above - suffering a catastrophic 4-0 defeat in the first leg.
