Exclusive:Owls in the Park: Sheffield Wednesday to make big call over popular Hillsborough event

Conversations are underway that could see Sheffield Wednesday cancel this year’s Owls in the Park due to safety concerns.

The event, which made its long-awaited return last year, is scheduled to take place on June 28th ahead of the 2025/26 campaign, just a couple of days on from the players’ return for preseason training.

Now, though, The Star has been led to believe that – after advice from local authorities – there is a strong possibility that it might not go ahead amid growing unrest over the ownership of Dejphon Chansiri.

Since the current unpaid wage debacle began to unfold a couple of weeks ago there has been growing talk of protest at this year’s OITP, and it is thought that that has formed the basis of it potentially being cancelled – despite it being done at such short notice.
