A whole host of Sheffield Wednesday fans were furious on Twitter to find out their match against Portsmouth has been moved for TV.

Wednesday fans experienced a long journey this midweek as they had to face Plymouth Argyle in an FA Cup replay, which ultimately ended in disappointment as they were swept aside 3-0 by the League One table-toppers.

Will Sheffield Wednesday be promoted?

Yes!

Yes!

No!

No!

They now have 7th December to think of when it comes to long trips as that’s when their match against Pompey has been rescheduled for, making it the second time it has been moved because of TV selections, as Alex Miller of the Sheffield Star has revealed.

A lot of Sheffield Wednesday fans on Twitter were furious to see this already difficult and long-distance trip changed.

What have these Wednesday fans been saying?

“Moved to Wednesday night then moved back to the original date less than a month before when everyone has spent their hard earned money absolute joke”

An easy one to kick off our quiz on the 2020 summer transfer window in the EFL, which player left Birmingham City to join Borussia Dortmund?

It is a shocking decision from the EFL to move the game not once, but twice, especially when it is now only three weeks away and is an incredibly long journey to make, which will have seen many fans book overnight stays, which could now be invalid.
