Sheffield United's supremacy in the city has long since been established. That shouldn't change in the foreseeable future if the Blades continue to progress after last season's self-imposed setback. But Wednesday's new American owners, Arise Capitol Partners, are making all the right noises and have produced a plan to dig the Owls out the hole former Owner Dejphon Chansiri dug for them. For supporters, bragging rights are what local rivalry is all about. But there is far more at stake than that.

Summary:

  • Sheffield Wednesday have experienced the season from hell. Recovery may take longer than what many Owls fans might think.
  • The club's new ownership is characterised by a proactive engagement with supporters and a realistic strategy.
  • Sheffield United's supremacy in the city has every chance of being extended for years to come if the Blades make up for lost time after the disappointment of last season.
  • But the recent changes at Wednesday signals a potential revival in the making as they begin life back in League One.
