Sheffield Wednesday fans have been reacting to news that has emerged from the club surrounding Liam Palmer.

It was confirmed by the club on Thursday that veteran defender Palmer will be sticking around at the club until the summer of 2023 as he signed a new contract at Hillsborough.

The 30-year-old is certainly part of the furniture at the club, having racked up 319 appearances and counting for the club ever since his debut back in 2010, and during that time, he has certainly experienced a lot – from being within touching distance of the Premier League in 2016 to being relegated last year and everything in between.
