Owls About Stat

Tony Pulis is the new manager of Sheffield Wednesday and we're back with a new episode to chat about his appointment and what the stats tell us to expect. Join Peter, James and James for a journey through the numbers and our thoughts and views along the way. Stay safe - have as good a Christmas as you can - and here's hoping we can all be back together at a beautiful Hillsborough in 2021. Drop us a tweet: @OwlsAboutStat or via any of the trio: @PLoehmann @ManhattanOwl @JamesMarriott

Peter, James and James get together to investigate Stadiumgate. So we know Wednesday have been charged by the EFL, but what's it all about, what happens now, and what is the likely punishment?

We’ve all seen those things people have said time and time again on social media about Garry Monk: “He’s a journeyman”“He only plays 4-4-2”“His transfer record is terrible” But seriously, is there anything in those statements? Peter, James and James sift through the stats to find out. We look at the new Sheffield Wednesday manager’s transfer record at his previous clubs, how those teams lined up, and how long he stayed (and importantly, why he left) Plus we run through the work ahead for...

It’s been an interesting summer so far from a financial respective for Sheffield Wednesday. The accounts are very late, there’s a soft embargo, we’ve sold the stadium and created more shares and sister companies. What’s going on? Peter, James and James reconvene to try to make sense of the Owls’ current position and what’s likely to come next. We also have the answers to other important questions such as: do the think the new shirt will have stripes?

What a month it has been! Somehow, Sheffield Wednesday have become genuine play off contenders, and so Peter, James and James look at the numbers to see just how good a month we’ve had. We take a look at what it is going to take for us to sneak into that all important Top 6. We examine Birmingham’s P&S breach punishment and what it means for our own FFP situation. And the boys’ usual Stat of the Month, as well ask your questions answered in #AskPeter

Peter, James and James are back – and four games into the Steve Bruce era, we look over the facts and figures to see what early patterns we can spot. We also look back at Aggy and Clemmo’s short stint at the helm and as usual examine the season as a whole. Off the field, with no outgoings in January, what happens next in terms of FFP? And the guys give their thoughts on the departure of Katrien Miere as CEO. Plus the trio put forward their Stat of the Month, including a very big number...

We start the New Year with a new episode of Owls About Stat, as Peter, James and James look at Sheffield Wednesday by numbers. We examine the reign of Jos Luhukay, 2018 overall, Lee Bullen’s four games in charge, Steve Bruce’s record… and try again to figure out where any money for him to spend in January will come from. Plus the trio put forward their Stat of the Month: what is 15 in 15? And what’s 3.1 in every 100? James A looks back to On This Day In, and your questions get answered in...

Peter, James and James are back with the first of two festive editions of Owls About Stat. This one looks over the current FFP situation at Sheffield Wednesday, following on from last week’s Fans’ Forum at Hillsborough. We look through the options to solve our financial predicament, and consider any loopholes which might be available to avoid a flash sale of star players.

You remember those FFP podcasts that Peter, James and James did? Well the three of them have got back together for a whole new show: Owls About Stat – looking at Sheffield Wednesday by numbers. They look over a host of facts and figures to dissect our performances in this pilot episode, including: It’s a bit rusty and we ramble on a bit, but it’s just a tester really to see how it goes down – please send us your feedback. We’d love your suggestions for the next episode’s Myth Busters as...
