Peace Coffee | [
"Peace Coffee was formed by the Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy (IATP) in 1996",
"The company also partnered with Rigoberta Menchú.",
"The idea for Peace Coffee came from Mexican coffee producers who had the goal of selling 100% certified organic and fair trade coffee.",
"In 1999, Peace Coffee joined the group Cooperative Coffees.",
"Currently, Cooperative Coffees has partnered with 20 different coffee-growing cooperatives in the countries of Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Peru, Ethiopia, and Rwanda.",
"In early 2018 the company was purchased from IATP by long time CEO Lee Wallace and her business partner, Kent Pilakowski.",
"Peace Coffee sources coffee in two distinct ways.",
"The organization partners with larger coffee-growing co-operatives that are fair-trade certified rather than individual farmers.",
"Groups such as Oromia Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union, which have over 10,000 members, allow for economies of scale to exist while maintaining a farmer friendly attitude.",
"Co-operatives are necessary due to the high scale of demand from a large company like Peace Coffee.",
"The disadvantages of not working directly with these farmers include less direct control over farming practices such as harvesting and processing improvements.",
"Although Peace Coffee does consistently travel the countries of origin, visiting their co-ops at least once every two years, they do not have the same influence on cup quality because of the larger number of growers.",
"Peace Coffee also founded its own coffee importing cooperative with other roasters in 1999.",
"Since then, Peace Coffee has imported coffee from cooperative farming groups that support small-scale farmers around the world.",
"Being an owner and importer gives the organization increased access and transparency in the supply chain.",
"Peace Coffee publishes contracts with its coffee farmers on its website Fair Trade Proof.",
"Peace Coffee received publicity after rapper/actor Ice Cube mentioned that he often made Peace Coffee in the morning in an interview with Bon Appétit magazine.",
"Peace Coffee has a mantra \"pedal not petrol\", which refers to the company's policy of using bicycle couriers to deliver their product to stores, coffee shops, and food co-ops.",
"While the company uses the bicycle couriers within the cities, it purchased a biodiesel van for deliveries to the suburbs and out of state."

Spieker center | [
"The following result can be used to locate the Spieker center of any triangle.",
"\"The Spieker center of triangle ABC is the incenter of the medial triangle of triangle ABC.",
"\"\nThat is, the Spieker center of triangle \"ABC\" is the center of the circle inscribed in the medial triangle of triangle \"ABC\".",
"This circle is known as the Spieker circle.",
"The Spieker center is also located at the intersection of the three cleavers of triangle ABC.",
"A cleaver of a triangle is a line segment that bisects the perimeter of the triangle and has one endpoint at the midpoint of one of the three sides.",
"Each cleaver contains the center of mass of the boundary of triangle ABC, so the three cleavers meet at the Spieker center.",
"To see that the incenter of the medial triangle coincides with the intersection point of the cleavers, consider a homogeneous wireframe in the shape of triangle ABC consisting of three wires in the form of line segments having lengths \"a\", \"b\", \"c\".",
"The wire frame has the same center of mass as a system of three particles of masses \"a\", \"b\", \"c\" placed at the midpoints \"D\", \"E\", \"F\" of the sides \"BC\", \"CA\", \"AB\".",
"The centre of mass of the particles at \"E\" and \"F\" is the point \"P\" which divides the segment \"EF\" in the ratio \"c\" : \"b\".",
"The line \"DP\" is the internal bisector of ∠\"D\".",
"The centre of mass of the three particle system thus lies on the internal bisector of ∠\"D\".",
"Similar arguments show that the center mass of the three particle system lies on the internal bisectors of ∠\"E\" and ∠\"F\" also.",
"It follows that the center of mass of the wire frame is the point of concurrence of the internal bisectors of the angles of the triangle \"DEF\", which is the incenter of the medial triangle \"DEF\".",
"Let \"S\" be the Spieker center of triangle \"ABC\".",
"\"bc\" (\"b\" + \"c\") : \"ca\" (\"c\" + \"a\") : \"ab\" (\"a\" + \"b\").",
"\"b\" + \"c\" : \"c\" + \"a\" : \"a\" + \"b\" .",
"formula_1\nThus on a suitably scaled and positioned number line, \"I\"=0, \"G\"=2, \"S\"=3, and \"M\"=6."

"The records came together by hanging out with them, taking them to parties and showing them movies\".",
"In an interview with MTV News Diddy said \"One of the things [Dirty Money] trying to represent is emotion...",
"Not being afraid to show emotion on record.",
"A lot of records out right now — no disrespect to them, but they're all surface.",
"It's about what people have or a dance.",
"All our records are gonna be about love, feelings and emotion.",
"Last Train to Paris is a love story and the most vulnerable album I've ever been involved in.",
"It's raw emotion — you get a feeling, a vibe.\"",

"A short film will also accompany the album.",
"Rap producer Bangladesh, also confirmed that he would be producing for the album.",
"According to \"New York\" magazine, the album was \"assembled from 60 or so songs.",

"The mixtapes's lead single, \"Go to Work\", was released on November 14, 2011.",

"Hosted by DJ Cash and executive produced by Kalenna, Tony Vick, Trick Bizness and Shakesphere, this sound is different from what I’ve normally heard from female artists today.",
"Whether it’s showing out in the club (\"6000 Sistas\"), being down for the man that she loves (\"S on My Chest\"), flipping one of Drake's tracks (\"The Motto\"), or the day after a wild night (\"The Morning After\"), Kalenna separates herself from the pack.",
"With production from Darkchild, Black Da Beast, D'Mile and others, this mixtape is worth the listen.",

"Steve Cady of \"The New York Times\" wrote that Secretariat could be defeated if the pace of the race went too fast or was too slow for too long, in both of which scenarios he felt Sham would win.",
"Sham received significant attention as well and was thought to be the second best horse, along with having the potential of becoming the first horse to be runner-up in all the Triple Crown races.",
"My Gallant was considered the best of the rest, especially as he was the progeny of Gallant Man, who set the Belmont Stakes course record of 2: in the 1957 edition.",
"Knightly Dawn was entered into the race on June 6 and was thought to bring early speed to the race and alter the way it would be run.",
"Before Knightly Dawn's entry, Secretariat was speculated to lead from the race's start.",
"With the presence of Knightly Dawn, William Boniface of \"The Baltimore Sun\" believed that Secretariat would have to run faster earlier on, thus making the final half-mile more unpredictable.",
"Pancho Martin, the trainer of Knightly Dawn, said he would only run the horse if it rained as Knightly Dawn's only previous success had been in the Jersey Derby on a sloppy track.",
"However, Knightly Dawn was scratched prior to race day.",

National Counter Terrorism Centre | [
"The terrorist attacks on Mumbai in 2008 was unprecedented in its scale and intensity and betrayed gaping holes in India's intelligence network with respect to the collection and coordination of intelligence and action between various agencies of the state and Union governments.",
"While the Maharashtra Government was accused of having failed to act on intelligence inputs provided prior to the Mumbai attacks, it countered that the inputs were vague and no pre-emptive action could have been taken based on these inputs.",
"The attacks and the government's response to them led to the resignation of the Union Home Minister Shivraj Patil and he was replaced by the Finance Minister P. Chidambaram who stated that one of his first tasks was to establish a strong federal counter terror agency that could co-ordinate with the states effectively by integrating intelligence inputs from the states.",
"It was in this context that the NCTC was mooted as an apex body, a single and effective point of control for all counter terrorism measures.",
"The NCTC is modelled on the American NCTC and the British Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre.",
"The model for India was mooted by the then Home Minister, P. Chidambaram, who along with the then National Security Adviser, M.K. Narayanan, had visited the US in 2009 to study the functioning of the US' NCTC.",
"The NCTC will derive its powers from the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act, 1967.",
"It is to be a part of the Intelligence Bureau and will be headed by a Director who will report to the Director IB and the Home Secretary.",
"But the modified original draft of NCTC says that this system does not come under purview of Intelligence Beaureu and states are taken into confidence before the centre carries on any operation in their territories.",
"The NCTC will execute counter-terror operations and collect, collate and disseminate data on terrorism besides maintaining a data base on terrorists and their associates including their families.",
"The NCTC has been empowered to analyse intelligence shared by agencies like the Intelligence Bureau and select what it deems suitable.",
"It has also been granted powers to conduct searches and arrests in any part of India and will formulate responses to terror threats.",
"Unlike the American NCTC which deals only with strategic planning and integration of intelligence without any operational involvement or the Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre, which too plays a purely coordinating role, the Indian agency will have not only intelligence functions but also powers to conduct operations.",
"It is this concentration of powers that has had the states objecting to the NCTC, arguing that such sweeping powers vested in a Central agency will violate the autonomy of state governments, given that law and order is a state subject according to the Constitution.",
"It has also been argued that given the establishment of the National Investigating Agency in the aftermath of the 26/11 attacks, the establishment of an NCTC would only add to the bureaucratic tangle in intelligence sharing and counter terrorist action.",
"It is also argued that the nature of US and Indian federal structures differ vastly and hence suitable amendments are needed for the agency to be effective while guaranteeing the constitutional rights of the states.",
"Some strategic experts like B.Raman of the R&AW have pointed out that there are significant loopholes which may still be used in selectively targeting states for political ends.",
"The UPA govt has stuck to its decision to set up NCTC and has promised to resolve all concerns amicably.",
"The Union Home Ministry is believed to be making extensive changes on the NCTC proposal to the Cabinet Committee on Security, including one to make it as a separate organisation outside the IB.",
"The initial opposition to the NCTC also focused on how the agency had been empowered to search and arrest people without keeping the state government, police or anti-terror squad in the loop.",
"The Centre has since mooted that the Directors General of Police and the chiefs of anti-terror squads of all states be made members of the Standing Council of the NCTC.",

"The first processed water was distributed to Warsaw citizens on July 3, 1886, from filters consisting of a group of slow sand filters, clean water tank, pump depot and a water tower.",
"The design was by William Lindley, but was supervised and modernised by his son, William Heerlein Lindley.",
"In the beginning, the system was divided into:\nUpper Town – supplied by water from a water tower situated in the Filters' area\nLower Town – supplied by water straight from slow sand filters (in the Powiśle and Praga districts)\nThe Warsaw waterworks system consisted of Filters Station (Filtry Lindleya) and River Pump Station of Central Waterworks Institute, from which water was extracted and transported to Filters Station.",
"Water was carried from a pumping station to slow filters, some chambers were (Imhoff tanks) processing the sewerage.",
"Filtered water was transported to clean water tanks and then to pumping depots, where it was pushed up into a water tower, from which the Upper Town waterworks started.",
"A few years after deploying the filters it was necessary to add Imhoff tanks before the slow filters, as research showed contamination in the water.",
"To implement this, Warsaw Filters was enlarged after 1890 and more tanks were built.",
"Growing demand for water in the early 1930s in Warsaw prompted the building of a Rapid Sand Filter Station, which treat the water from four intakes.",
"After implementing the station, water from a pumping station was pressed into expansion vessels, then to rapid filters and slow filters.",

"In the beginning, the system was divided into:\nUpper Town – supplied by water from a water tower situated in the Filters' area\nLower Town – supplied by water straight from slow sand filters (in the Powiśle and Praga districts)\nThe Warsaw waterworks system consisted of Filters Station (Filtry Lindleya) and River Pump Station of Central Waterworks Institute, from which water was extracted and transported to Filters Station.",
"Water was carried from a pumping station to slow filters, some chambers were (Imhoff tanks) processing the sewerage.",
"Filtered water was transported to clean water tanks and then to pumping depots, where it was pushed up into a water tower, from which the Upper Town waterworks started.",
"A few years after deploying the filters it was necessary to add Imhoff tanks before the slow filters, as research showed contamination in the water.",
"To implement this, Warsaw Filters was enlarged after 1890 and more tanks were built.",
"Growing demand for water in the early 1930s in Warsaw prompted the building of a Rapid Sand Filter Station, which treat the water from four intakes.",
"After implementing the station, water from a pumping station was pressed into expansion vessels, then to rapid filters and slow filters.",
"In 1931 the chlorination of water was implemented.",
"The main buildings were massively damaged during the Second World War and much of the filtering equipment was stolen by German soldiers.",
"Reconstruction after the war took several years of work.",
"From 2008 to 2010 indirect ozoning and carbon active filters station were built.",
"This consists of 3 ozone generators and 18 carbon filter chambers.",
"Modern buildings have been designed to look similar to the historic buildings.",
"The new station is named \"Socrates\", after the founder of Warsaw Filters.",
"Warsaw Filters' protection has been upgraded three times in 1973, 2008 and, finally, in 2012, when the whole Filters complex became one of Poland's official national Historic Monuments (\"Pomnik historii\"), as designated on January 18, 2012.",
"Its listing is maintained by the National Heritage Board of Poland."

"In its opening weekend in the United States, the film grossed $13.1 million, finishing first at the box office.",
"It was especially popular among Hispanics, who made up 32% of the audience on the opening weekend, and a writer for \"The Hollywood Reporter\" attributed the film's popularity to strong word of mouth.",
"The film was initially released in 2,730 theaters and expanded to 2,780 locations in its second week of release.",
"On December 7, the film was given a nationwide re-release in 1,259 theaters shortly after it received two Independent Spirit Award nominations.",

"On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes the film has an 85% approval rating based on 181 reviews, with an average rating of 7.20/10.",
"The website's consensus states: \"\"End of Watch\" has the energy, devotion to characters, and charismatic performances to overcome the familiar pitfalls of its genre and handheld format.\"",

"Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of \"A-\" on an A+ to F scale.",
"Roger Ebert of the \"Chicago Sun-Times\" gave the film 4 out of 4 stars, calling it \"one of the best police movies in recent years, a virtuoso fusion of performances and often startling action\", and went on to name the film the fourth best of 2012.",
"Film critic James Berardinelli described \"End of Watch\" as \"satisfying and emotionally potent ... a good, gritty drama of the sort that seems increasingly rare within the thriller genre\", giving the film 3.5 out of 4 stars.",
"Olly Richards, writing for \"Empire\", gave the film 4 out of 5 stars and summarized it as \"a collection of cop-movie clichés but presented with sufficient flair and strong performances that the ride is enough, even if it's on rails\".",
"While \"New York\" Bilge Ebiri found the film largely unrealistic and Ayer's direction \"serviceable at best\", he wrote that \"Ayer and his cast appear to have so convincingly nailed the way these characters talk and act that you might not even notice the film slipping from workaday grit into out-and-out myth.",
"\"\nCritics praised \"End of Watch\" for its avoidance of clichés often used in police films, particularly the buddy cop genre.",
"Peter Debruge of \"Variety\" wrote that \"Like a knife in the eye, \"End of Watch\" cuts past the cliches of standard police procedurals\" and praised Ayer for depicting the LAPD as \"an honorable and efficient organization of people working together\".",
"\"Entertainment Weekly\" Lisa Schwarzbaum, who gave the film an A−, described it as \"one of the best American cop movies I've seen in a long time [and] also one of the few I've seen that pay serious attention to what cop life feels like, both on and off duty\".",
"In a review for \"The Globe and Mail\", however, Rick Groen opined that the focus on \"saintly\" police officers was less interesting than Ayer's \"trademark grit and authenticity\".",
"The performances of Peña and Gyllenhaal were also praised by critics.",
"Peter Debruge commended the realism that the two actors brought to their roles, saying, \"Gyllenhaal and Peña so completely reinvent themselves in-character.",

"The \"Los Angeles Times\" Betsy Sharkey applauded the chemistry between the two lead actors, as well as their individual performances, writing, \"As good as Gyllenhaal is in this, Peña nearly steals the show.\"",
"In a review for \"USA Today\", Claudia Puig commended Gyllenhaal for \"giv[ing] his best performance since \"Brokeback Mountain\"\" and Peña for \"shin[ing] with charisma\".",
"Roger Ebert highlighted \"End of Watch\" as \"one of the performances of [Peña's] career\" and praised the performances given by the supporting cast, including Natalie Martinez and Anna Kendrick.",
"An aspect of the film criticized in numerous reviews was its handheld camerawork and cinematography.",
"Richard Corliss wrote for \"Time\" that the found footage style of cinematography \"borders on the ludicrous\" and that \"the tactic fatally substitutes photo realism for fauxto realism\".",
"Similarly, \"The Washington Post\" Michael O'Sullivan found the aesthetic gimmicky, overused, and \"an unnecessary distraction from the story\".",
"On the other hand, Amy Biancolli of the \"San Francisco Chronicle\" felt that although the cinematography was inconsistent, \"it's used to deepen its main characters\" and \"lends the film a lively intimacy\".",
"Other reviewers criticized the casting of minorities as gang members.",
"Manohla Dargis of \"The New York Times\" pointed out that \"almost all of [the crimes are] committed by the black and mainly brown people\", while \"The Globe and Mail\" Rick Groen criticized \"the script's penchant for over demonizing the ghetto's black residents\"."

"As with all wattles, it has leaf-like structures known as phyllodes instead of leaves, which are compound (pinnate) and measure in length.",
"The globular yellow flowers appear in spring (August to October)."

Acacia pubescens | [
"\"Acacia pubescens\" grows as a shrub to small tree anywhere from high.",
"The smooth bark is grey-brown in colour, and the branches can have a slightly drooping or weeping habit.",
"Like all wattles, the downy wattle has leaf-like structures known as phyllodes which are compound (pinnate) and measure in length with 3 to 12 pairs of smaller \"leaves\" or pinnae, each long, and themselves composite - composed of 5 to 20 pairs of pinnules.",
"Arranged in racemes, the globular yellow flowers appear in spring (August to October), peaking in September.",
"Each flower head contains 12 to 20 flowers.",
"Flowering is followed by the development of 3–7 cm long seed pods, which ripen over October to December.",
"French botanist Étienne Pierre Ventenat described the downy wattle in 1803, in his \"Jardin de la Malmaison\" as \"Mimosa pubescens\".",
"It had been grown at the Château de Malmaison in the garden of the Empress Joséphine de Beauharnais.",
"Robert Brown gave it its current name in 1813 in \"Hortus Kewensis\".",
"Common names include downy wattle and hairy-stemmed wattle.",
"Derived from the Latin \"pubescens\" \"hairy\", the species name relates to the hairy stems.",
"English botanist George Bentham classified \"A. pubescens\" in the series \"Botrycephalae\" in his 1864 \"Flora Australiensis\".",
"Queensland botanist Les Pedley reclassified the species as \"Racosperma pubescens\" in 2003, when he proposed placing almost all Australian members of the genus into the new genus \"Racosperma\".",
"However, this name is treated as a synonym of its original name.",
"Along with other bipinnate wattles, it is classified in the section \"Botrycephalae\" within the subgenus \"Phyllodineae\" in the genus \"Acacia\".",
"An analysis of genomic and chloroplast DNA along with morphological characters found that the section is polyphyletic, though the close relationships of it and many other species were unable to be resolved.",
"Hybrids with Cootamundra wattle (\"Acacia baileyana\") and West Wyalong wattle (\"A. cardiophylla\") have been reported.",
"Endemic to New South Wales, \"Acacia pubescens\" is restricted to the Sydney Basin, where it is found in scattered populations from Bardwell Valley to Oakdale and Mountain Lagoon.",

"Hudson's intimate association with Italian patriots was seen as too partisan for a man in his position, however, Malmesbury understood Hudson's reluctance to act in a way that could prevent a war (between France and Austria) that could lead to unification According to Lord Cowley, British Ambassador in Paris, Cavour went further, believing Hudson to be a greater revolutionary than any Italian, had encouraged the Sardinian Government to action, and whose home was the rendezvous for disaffected liberals.",

"However, this chance could arguably have been a penalty as Michael Morrison was having his shirt clearly pulled by the opposing defender.",

"Into the second half and a counter-attack from a Sheffield Wednesday corner saw a chance by Johnnie Jackson taken, and Charlton had broken the dead-lock to put the home side a goal up.",

"However, through Wednesday's chances, a rare attack for Charlton saw them go on and hit the post.",

"This was to be England U21 international Connor Wickham from Sunderland.",
"It is rumoured that Wednesday had attempted to bring the player in earlier on in the season, but now Sunderland have brought an extra striker in during the transfer window, meaning it was now possible to sign him.",
"So nine-days into the second month of the year and Sheffield Wednesday faced Derby County at Hillsborough Stadium.",
"Derby started the brighter of the two-teams and got their reward after twenty-three minutes as neat passing play down the middle saw Jeff Hendrick through on goal and he slotted the ball comfortably pass Chris Kirkland and into the back of the net.",
"As things were not going well Connor Wickham was introduced with only just over half-an-hour gone to make his debut.",
"Michail Antonio come close with a long-range effort before the break, but it was Derby County who went into half-time a goal up.",

"The game started lively with Marlon King having two opportunities for Birmingham, with one going wide and the other comfortably saved by Kirkland.",

"The last time the two teams met at Hillsborough it was a relegation-'play-off' with either of the two teams possibly being relegated – it was however Sheffield Wednesday who ended up facing the drop that day.",

"A usual fantastic cross from Michail Antonio found the head of Leroy Lita, with just nine-minutes to go.",
"Crystal Palace failed to threaten for the rest of the game and nearly went two-down, as good pressure by Madine saw Leroy Lita through on goal, but a good save by the opposing keeper preventing the scores from doubling.",
"The game finished 1–0, a great result for Sheffield Wednesday as they moved five-points clear of the relegation zone.",
"The Crystal Palace game was the last of February and the remaining five-days of the month saw a Milan Mandarić interview, around two-years after taking over the club, a fans' forum where general questions were asked by fans to manager Dave Jones and chairman Milan Mandarić.",
"It also saw, on 26 February, one year since the club beat Sheffield United at Hillsborough Stadium, where the club then saw Gary Megson sacked as manager and the long unbeaten run to promotion begin.",
"With ex-manager Gary Megson being sacked last year at the end of February, it meant manager Dave Jones' first anniversary of being appointed.",
"However, it was not a great anniversary 'off-the-field' as an exclusive article on the front page of the national newspaper The Sun talked about Dave Jones' personal life, and how he had been having an affair with a well-known netball player.",
"This out-break of news through the media came at unfortunate timing as it was a day before the televised clash with Nottingham Forest.",
"The fans just hoped that this news 'off-the-field' would not affect the performances 'on-the-field'.",
"So the late game the next day against Nottingham Forest kicked off live on Sky Sports.",
"The game started with quite a few good chances with Dexter Blackstock having a shot off-target for Nottingham Forest, while Connor Wickham's header also came close.",
"Forest captain Danny Collins then had his header go a whisker wide of the post, but looked like the player should have scored.",
"Nottingham Forest started to play some brilliant football, and went on to dominate the first half.",
"Dexter Blackstock had a goal disallowed for offside, and then Forest got their reward with some brilliant football and teamwork that saw Radosław Majewski slot the ball home into the almost empty net.",
"Nottingham Forest continued to dominate before half-time and Chris Kirkland was forced into making one fine save, before Simon Cox also went close.",
"Somehow the teams went into the break with Sheffield Wednesday only trailing by the one goal.",
"The second half was found to be more of an even contest, however Nottingham Forest continued to look comfortable on the ball and in defence, limiting Wednesday with just a few half-chances.",
"Leroy Lita's shot for example was comfortably saved and Michail Antonio's left-footed shot went just over the bar.",
"Radosław Majewski could have scored again for Forest at the other end of the pitch after fantastic play from a corner.",
"Leroy Lita had another header and shot stopped by the opposition defence, while in the last few minutes Michail Antonio had his long range effort excellently blocked by Blackstock.",
"The game finished in a loss for Sheffield Wednesday – their first for two-months, as they dropped to four-points adrift of the relegation zone.",
"One-day off exactly a year since Dave Jones took charge in his first full game at Sheffield Wednesday (the 4–1 win against Bury), the Owls faced an away game against third in the league Watford – who were inevitably in good form.",
"However, before this game the Sheffield Wednesday U-21 squad were due to play the Leeds United U-21 squad at Hillsborough, the game was confirmed to have been postponed at around 5 o'clock that afternoon in most extraordinary circumstances, as police had found an unexploded bomb just outside the ground.",
"At 19:45 later that evening Sheffield Wednesday did kick-off against Watford at Vicarage Road.",
"The first ten-minutes of the game started as the whole game was expected to be like, when looking at the league tables, with Watford having plenty of the ball and attacking Sheffield Wednesday consistently.",
"Troy Deeney had his shot go just wide of the post, before the best chance of the game at this point fell to Matěj Vydra whose effort hit the outside of the post.",
"Then, at the other end of the pitch, Jérémy Hélan's troublesome dribbling and pace saw him worry the defence into making a back pass, where Watford goalkeeper Jonathan Bond made a mistake, which led to Michail Antonio giving the Owls the lead, scoring from a tight angle.",
"After the goal Sheffield Wednesday were by far the better team and arguably should have been at least three or four goals up by half-time.",
"A great free-kick by Miguel Llera saw Jonathan Bond make a fabulous save right in the top corner of the goal, this save saw a header from Lewis Buxton just cleared-off the line by an opposition defender as Anthony Gardner tried to put the ball home as well.",
"However, replays show that Lewis Buxton's header en route to goal was handled by a Watford defender, trying to stop the ball from going into the net, and the ball that was then cleared off the line by another defender had actually crossed the line after all, therefore Sheffield Wednesday should have either been given a penalty and Watford down to ten-men, or Sheffield Wednesday should be two-goals up.",
"After this incident, superb play by Jérémy Hélan once more, saw his volley finely saved by the goalkeeper, and Kieran Lee's effort somehow go wide of the goal, with it looking easier for ball to put into the back of the net.",
"Wednesday went on to have a few half chances before the break, but so did Watford as Chris Kirkland made one fine save.",
"Half-time was called and although a good lead for Sheffield Wednesday, they really should have been leading by more.",
"The second half started like the first with Watford on top and a corner they had was flicked on at the near post and met by substitute Fernando Forestieri who tapped home the equaliser.",
"The Owls felt really hard done by, and Watford were now the team with the ascendancy and the home crowd right behind them.",
"Watford continued to pressurise and good work by Fernando Forestieri just outside the area saw his shot miss three or four players before somehow finding the back of the net.",
"Watford had turned the game on its head.",
"Both sides had reasonable half-chances before the end of the game, and although Sheffield Wednesday gave it everything for the equaliser they just could not get it.",
"The game finished in a 2–1 defeat and Watford moved up to second, while Sheffield Wednesday went just two-points adrift of the relegation zone, with more very tough games coming up – fifth placed Leicester City were next before heading back home to face top of the league Cardiff City.",
"So the second-game of the week saw the Owls travelling to play Leicester City.",
"Both teams started the game lively and it was Leicester who had the first opportunity of the game when a clever volley from David Nugent forced Chris Kirkland into making a good save.",
"Then at the other end of the pitch Michail Antonio managed to beat his man and send a fantastic cross over to the far post where Leroy Lita somehow managed to head the ball over the bar.",
"Ritchie De Laet managed to beat his man later on in the game and forced another great save from Kirkland when he powered a shot towards goal.",
"It remained goalless at half-time and Leicester had the first major opportunity in the second half when a cross in the box saw Harry Kane head over the bar, when the player seemingly should have at least got the header on target.",
"At the other end of pitch Lita sent a fine through-ball to Michail Antonio whose one-on-one effort was saved by Kasper Schmeichel.",
"As the game remained very even with equally as good chances falling to both teams it was with twenty-minutes to go when Lewis Buxton sent in a cross, Michail Antonio flicked on and a volley by loanee Connor Wickham gave Sheffield Wednesday a vital lead.",
"As the clock ticked on towards full-time a Leicester City corner saw Andy King's header hit the outside of the post and go wide.",
"Fortunately for the Owls it was the last piece of major action in the game and Sheffield Wednesday gained a vital victory on the road to safety.",
"Onto the weekend of 16 March, Sheffield Wednesday faced top of the league Cardiff City at home, this was the last game of the run where Wednesday faced five of the top six teams in the league, it was also the last game before the international break.",
"The first half only had very few minor incidents, with the only one note worthy of was when Leroy Lita looked like he could have been obstructed in the box and had claims for a penalty turned down.",
"As the game looked to go in as a goalless draw at the break, a corner by Cardiff was punched out by Kirkland and Don Cowie fired a shot towards goal that could not quite be stopped by David Prutton on the line, as the ball trickled into the net.",
"Cardiff City went luckily into the break a goal up.",
"The majority of the second half was similar to the first with only very few minor chances.",
"However, with twenty-minutes in, a free-kick from Cardiff saw Matthew Connolly score from a free-header, somehow giving Cardiff City a 0–2 lead.",
"After this Sheffield Wednesday had better chances to score as Miguel Llera had two free-kicks saved by the opposition keeper and Leroy Lita had a goal disallowed for offside, while also a shot cleared off line after Anthony Gardner's header could not find the net.",
"The game finished and it was not particularly the result that saddened the fans but the results elsewhere and the league table.",
"All the teams around Sheffield Wednesday (apart from Bristol City as they played Wolves) won, this being Millwall, Huddersfield Town, Barnsley, Peterborough United, Ipswich Town, Birmingham City, and Wolves.",
"This left Sheffield Wednesday just one-point and place above the relegation zone with two massive games coming up, against Barnsley and Bristol City.",
"As the 2-week international break was in progress, there was some very bad news for Sheffield Wednesday, as it was confirmed that the groin injury Michail Antonio had picked up against Cardiff City at the weekend, meant that Michail Antonio would be out for the rest of the season.",
"Michail Antonio is well in the lead as the club's top goalscorer and even further ahead with assists this season, as he has nine.",
"This very bad news came at probably the most pivotal point of the season for Sheffield Wednesday as with just over a month to go before the end of the season the club are just one point and place above the relegation zone, and games such as Barnsley, Bristol City, and Peterborough United all still to come.",
"The last few days before the end of March, and the Easter weekend relegation clashes against Barnsley and Bristol City, saw the end of the emergency loan window.",
"Having just lost two-key players of Michail Antonio and Connor Wickham, along with the possibility of Giles Coke being out for a longer amount of time, manager ave Jones made three loan signings over the last two-days of the emergency loan window.",
"Firstly, Hull City experienced midfielder Seyi Olofinjana was signed until the end-of-the-season, and then one of Bolton Wanderers' star men, Stuart Holden, signed for one-month having just come back from injury and looking for some game time.",
"Then just a few-minutes later it was confirmed forward Steve Howard had been signed for the rest of the season on loan from bottom of League One side Hartlepool United.",
"The signing of Howard was by far the strangest as the 36-year-old has been unable to even break into the Hartlepool side, who were bottom of the league below Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The Easter weekend came and the Owls faced local rivals and also a mighty relegation battle against Barnsley, who were in very good form.",
"It was seen as the biggest game of the season so far, with the crowd amounting to the highest attendance of the season so far at Hillsborough.",
"The game started with both teams fired-up and looking for the win.",
"Leroy Lita had an early goal correctly disallowed for offside, while the same then happened to Marlon Harewood at the other end, however he did not hit the target.",
"Lita then had a goal mouth scramble eventually cleared away by Barnsley.",
"Both teams had cancelled each other out in the first half and although they were both giving it their all in this clash, they both somehow needed to find more in order to try to get a winner.",
"Into the second half and substitute Reuben Noble-Lazarus had a long-distance shot very well saved by Chris Kirkland.",
"Another substitute by Barnsley, Jason Scotland, then had a chance as his shot was also well saved by Kirkland.",
"Then soon after at the other end of the pitch, good link up play between Jermaine Johnson and Lewis Buxton saw a cross into the box met by Gary Madine who tapped home a vital Sheffield Wednesday goal to give them the lead.",
"Madine then had several shots within a few-seconds saved and blocked when there was another goal-mouth scramble in the box.",
"Then with just over ten-minutes to go, plus stoppage time, a free-kick taken by Miguel Llera was launched into the box and Réda Johnson headed home to give Wednesday a fantastic two-goal lead.",
"With six-minutes to go the Owls were then wrongly given a penalty for handball.",
"Gary Madine stepped up but very poorly ended-up putting the ball wide.",
"Three-minutes later and Lewis Buxton failed to stay ten-yards away when Barnsley were given a free-kick just outside the area.",
"Buxton was shown a second yellow-card and was sent-off.",
"There was six-minutes added time and in the second Jacob Mellis volleyed a ball into the far-corner to give Barnsley a chance of gaining something from the game.",
"However, it was not to be and the game ended with a great chance for Barnsley just going wide, however the chance had been given as offside anyway.",
"Just two-days later and Sheffield Wednesday faced another massive game as they faced another relegation-contender as they played bottom-of-the-league Bristol City away at Ashton Gate.",
"The first chance of the game on Easter Monday came to Bristol City as a great ball into the box was just unable to meet Steve Davies' head.",
"Five changes were made by the Owls from the side that won against Barnsley, one of which was Steve Howard, who with ten minutes to go before half-time flicked on a ball which Jermaine Johnson just got to before the defender and found himself through on-goal, Jermaine Johnson cleverly went around the goalkeeper and passed the ball into the back of the net to give the Owls a vital lead.",
"After this Steve Davies also found himself through on goal at the other end for Bristol City, he hit the post but the chance had been waved for offside anyway.",
"The first major chance in the second half was created by Jermaine Johnson who dribbled in and out of several defender's and could not find either the net or Giles Coke at the far post.",
"With fifteen-minutes to go tempers flared as one of the Bristol City defender's dived in the box which made several of the Wednesday players furious, particularly Chris Kirkland, but the referee gave the right decision and the offender was shown a yellow card.",
"As time ticked on Bristol City pressed for an equaliser and thought their moment had gone when Albert Adomah volleyed well over the bar having expected to do a lot better.",
"However, as the game went into the second-minute of stoppage time a cross into the box was not caught as Chris Kirkland had planned as he was clattered by an opposition player, the ball landed perfectly for Sam Baldock to volley home for the game to finish 1–1.",
"4 points from two games was seen as pretty successful for Sheffield Wednesday, however their other relegation rivals continued to do even better, for example Wolves who were in the relegation-zone at the beginning of Monday, beat Birmingham (who had just beaten fourth-place Crystal Palace 0–4, away on Friday).",
"As the last full month of games began the league table saw second-to-bottom (twenty-third) on 45 points, then four teams above this were all on forty-seven (including Sheffield Wednesday).",
"Wolves were one point above this tally, while seventeenth-to-fifteenth were all on fifty points.",
"Peterborough United and Huddersfield Town, two of three teams below Sheffield Wednesday had not played on the Monday, and were due to play the following day.",
"On 6 April, Sheffield Wednesday faced another massive game as they played Blackburn Rovers at Hillsborough, with Blackburn being on the same number of points as Wednesday and as equally in danger of being relegated.",
"The game started very lively from both teams, as they both attacked from the early stages looking for the vital win.",
"The first major talking point was only twelve minutes into the game, as Chris Kirkland just beat Jordan Rhodes in the box chasing down a long-ball, however Kirkland only managed to pat it to the opposition player David Dunn, Dunn knocked it round the keeper who then just pulled him back slightly and a penalty was given.",
"Dunn had knocked the ball quite far and therefore only a yellow card was shown, and not a red due to it not being a definite goal scoring opportunity.",
"Jordan Rhodes, who scored four-goals at his one visit at this ground last season, stepped up and sent Chris Kirkland the wrong way to give Blackburn the lead.",
"Not ten minutes later however, and a stretched Blackburn players foot gave Jermaine Johnson the ball just outside the area, whose trickery went round one player and finished finely into the bottom far corner to bring the scores back level again.",
"Sheffield Wednesday were easily on top for the rest of the half after this goal, with Réda Johnson turning brilliantly but blasting over the bar, soon after though and Réda Johnson went over in the box after his shirt was being pulled, the referee decided in giving another penalty in this game.",
"Sheffield Wednesday had only scored one penalty and missed three so far this season, however the record was improved when Leroy Lita fired the penalty into the roof of the net.",
"Lita then had a chance to put the Owls two goals clear by the break but the opposition goalkeeper made a save.",
"Into the second half and Sheffield Wednesday could not get into their stride and Blackburn Rovers had large amounts of play but created very little, although Jordan Rhodes and David Jones did come close.",
"It was not until just under twenty-minutes to go when Blackburn Rovers got what they deserved.",
"A corner came back out to Colin Kazim-Richards, who whipped a ball into the box which was met by Scott Dann who headed home to put the scores back level again.",
"After this the game became more even and Sheffield Wednesday got their foot in the game again and when the on-form Jermaine Johnson got the ball at this feet, just six minutes after the Blackburn goal, he dribbled with his pace and unleashed a fiere shot from 25 yards into the far bottom corner to give Sheffield Wednesday another vital lead.",
"Jermaine Johnson then sent Jérémy Hélan through on goal before the end of the match, but Hélan could not finish the game off.",
"Sheffield Wednesday gained another vital and fantastic victory, and with results elsewhere going their way, they managed to climb three-points clear of the relegation-zone and putting Blackburn in it.",
"Sheffield Wednesday played Millwall just three days after the Blackburn game.",
"The Millwall game was the game that the Owls had in hand over the majority of the other teams in the league, and therefore was seen as probably the most important game of the season so far, as it could see Sheffield Wednesday go six points clear of the relegation-zone and up to fourteenth in the league – their highest point since early October.",
"Millwall, who themselves could still possibly get relegated, had the first chance after just two minutes, when several strong 50–50 challenges took place within just a few seconds around the middle of the field, eventually saw the ball go out wide where a Millwall player took on two players, crossed into the box and at the far-post Jimmy Abdou tapped into the empty net to give Millwall a crucial early lead.",
"It was the first chance of the game, a chance that was scored.",
"Soon after a bobble on the edge of the area saw Millwall and ex-Sheffield United player Rob Hulse through on goal but Kirkland prevented him from dribbling the ball around him.",
"Although Steve Howard had a shot well saved for Sheffield Wednesday, Millwall remained on top of the game with ex-Owl Mark Beevers coming close.",
"With five minutes to go until half-time Sheffield Wednesday were awarded a free-kick around thirty yards from goal which Miguel Llera stood up and curled the ball into the bottom corner to leave the scores level at half-time, although Wednesday will have been wondering how they had come in at the break on level terms at all.",
"The second half was much similar to the first with Millwall being on top, however the Owls defended much better this time around.",
"Millwall still created chances though, Jermaine Easter had two, one of which was a one-on-one that was well saved by Kirkland, and he then later made another great save as a corner lead to Sean St Ledger over-head kicking the ball towards the bottom corner of the net.",
"In-form Jermaine Johnson came on off the bench for the Owls and had a brilliant solo-run that ended with the ball just going inches wide from back of the net.",
"It was Sheffield Wednesday's one of very few chances, and Millwall continued to pressurise and a long-ball forward saw Danny Shittu and Chris Kirkland come together and the ball dropped to a Millwall player whose shot was cleared off the line by Miguel Llera, although the whistle had just been blown for a foul on Kirkland.",
"As the clocked ticked down and the game went into the second minute of stoppage time Sheffield Wednesday earned a corner that was whipped towards the near post and it was substitute Chris Maguire who volleyed the ball home from a tight angle to send players, staff and the Owls fans 'bananas'.",
"Somehow Sheffield Wednesday had managed to win the game, and it was a result and goal that would hopefully be looked back on at the end of the season as the game that kept Sheffield Wednesday up in the Championship.",
"Another massive game came just a few days later in an early kick-off against Yorkshire rivals Leeds United.",
"The last contest between the two teams saw a fierce game on and off the pitch, with the most significant moment being when a Leeds United fan ran on the pitch and pushed goalkeeper Chris Kirkland in the face.",
"The game at Elland Road saw Leeds's new manager Brian McDermott in charge for the first time, and it started with Rodolph Austin having quite a few attempts although they were all from long distance and went well-wide from the target.",
"Both teams were cancelling out each other well, and when the ball was punted up field and flicked on by Jérémy Hélan, Jermaine Johnson's pace beat the opposition defender to the ball, and hooked it over the on-rushing keeper to put Wednesday a goal up.",
"Into the beginning of the second half and Leeds started to take control of the game and Steve Morison had a brilliant chance when he went through on goal and when he was just about to pull the trigger Réda Johnson came in with a fantastic tackle to keep the Owls in the lead.",
"Soon after Sheffield Wednesday were constantly having to make great saves and throwing bodies on the line to prevent Leeds United from scoring, but eventually it was not enough.",
"After all that fantastic defending the equaliser came from a free-header by ex-Owl Luke Varney to put the scores deservedly level.",
"However, Leeds continued to be on top and just a few minutes later another cross by Ross McCormack met another free-header by Luke Varney who took it very well again and Leeds United were then in front.",
"After this however, Sheffield Wednesday were on top of the game as they pushed for the equaliser.",
"Steve Howard came ever so close when hitting the post, and Leroy Lita's header from just a few yards out somehow did not end up in the back of the net.",
"On another day Sheffield Wednesday would have got something from this game, but today was not the day and the derby finished Leeds United 2–1 Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The Owls were now in sixteenth, but just four points above the relegation-zone.",
"The third away game in succession came as Wednesday faced Blackpool on a pitch, after all the poor winter weather, had been described many of times as being a 'beach' rather than a football pitch.",
"As Dave Jones sat in the stand for his last game of the two-game touchline ban, Sheffield Wednesday started by far the strongest team and had two really good chances within just the first five minutes; Jermaine Johnson just nicked the ball off one of the opposition defender's but his shot was well saved by Matt Gilks, then another mistake lead to Giles Coke striking a fierce shot from 25-yards which forced an even better save out of Matt Gilks.",
"Thomas Ince went close at the other end of the pitch with a long-distance shot, and then a mistake – this time by Wednesday – led by another in quick succession due to the poor pitch condition, saw Ince through one-on-one, but Chris Kirkland pulled out a good save to turn the ball behind for a corner.",
"Into the second half and a corner by Blackpool saw one of their players have the best opportunity of the game when he hit the bar, this then led to a cross and a goal-mouth scramble which was eventually cleared away by the Owls.",
"Apart from this the second half only entertained some half-chances, but both keepers had to ensure they were on their guard.",
"The final whistle blew and it was seen as good point for Sheffield Wednesday as it was an extra point towards safety.",
"The last three o'clock kick-off of the season for Sheffield Wednesday was when the Owls faced Ipswich Town at Hillsborough Stadium, with points for either team being vital in securing Championship safety.",
"It was Ipswich who had the first chance of the game when a corner was whipped in and headed down at the far post to see Danny Pugh fortunately being able to clear off the line.",
"It was not too long into the game when the first goal did come, and it was poor defending by Sheffield Wednesday when a long throw-in was not headed clear by Miguel Llera, and Jay Tabb easily tapped the ball into the net.",
"Soon after the goal Chris Kirkland made a great save from a volley outside the box.",
"Wednesday's luck soon got worse though as a tactical substitution saw Kieran Lee replaced by Steve Howard, seeing Wednesday's main goal threat, Jermaine Johnson, go out on the wing.",
"Just three minutes later Jermaine Johnson pulled his hamstring and another sub had to be made, and if Jermaine Johnson had injured himself before the tactical substitution, then Steve Howard would most likely have just replaced him, however instead two subs had been made within half-an-hour, and another injury was added to the list, unfortunately it was Sheffield Wednesday's main goal threat.",
"The Owls did have a great opportunity when Steve Howard had a free header sail over the bar from a corner.",
"Before half-time though a goal-mouth scramble saw a Leroy Lita volley saved and then Anthony Gardner's shot cleared off the line by an opposing defender.",
"Ipswich went close with a shot just a few minutes into the second half, but Sheffield Wednesday continued to make chances of their own, such as when Miguel Llera had a great effort in the area well saved by the opposing goalkeeper.",
"Finally the well deserved equaliser did come, and it was good link up play between Chris Maguire and Lewis Buxton down wing that produced a cross that managed to make its way to the back post where Leroy Lita scored an unstoppable shot into the bottom corner.",
"Miguel Llera then soon had a free-header which he somehow failed to put into the back of the net and then when Jérémy Hélan's pace on the wing produced a cross, Leroy Lita headed home to send Hillsborough wild.",
"However, scenes soon died down as the goal was disallowed for offside.",
"The last main piece of action of the game came from another long-throw from Ipswich, which Kirkland failed to punch clear, it was flicked on with the ball heading towards the empty net but luckily Danny Pugh was there yet again to clear off the line.",
"It left the Owls four-points from safety, like several other teams, with just two games to go.",
"In arguably the biggest game of the season, Sheffield Wednesday travelled to face Peterborough United in a late kick-off in front of the live Sky Sports television camera's.",
"With some of the earlier results going Sheffield Wednesday's way the Owls only needed a point to secure Championship safety.",
"However, if the Owls lost it would mean they would be one point above the relegation zone with one game to go.",
"With Wednesday without both star men Michail Antonio and Jermaine Johnson, along with Peterborough having only lost once in eleven games, it was Peterborough who had the majority of possession in the first half.",
"The first chance also fell to Peterborough when Dwight Gayle's out-stretched foot managed to get a shot-off which was only half-saved by Chris Kirkland and the ball continued to roll towards the net, but Miguel Llera was there to clear it away before anybody could get an extra touch to it.",
"Danny Pugh made a great clearance after a cross, but then at the other end Giles Coke forced a good save out of the opposition goalkeeper to keep the scores level.",
"A free-kick for the Owls then saw a scramble in the box that fell sweetly for Jérémy Hélan to volley, but Peterborough were putting their bodies on the line to block the shot.",
"Soon the best chance of the game so far came when Sheffield Wednesday's corner was whipped to the far post and Anthony Gardner somehow headed wide when it was just a simple tap in.",
"That was the last main piece of action of the half and as things stood the Owls were safe.",
"Another half was still to be played though and when Gayle soon had a shot stopped by Miguel Llera the Peterborough players appealed for handball, however it was not given and replays showed it looked more like ball-to-hand.",
"As Peterborough continued to be on top Anthony Gardner failed to clear his lines and ended up conceding a free-kick 25-yards out.",
"Grant McCann stepped up and curled the ball around the wall and it hit the inside of the post...and went in.",
"Peterborough celebrated wildly as it could mean a lot in a weeks time when deciding who would get relegated.",
"As Wednesday went in search of an equaliser Peterborough still looked more likely to score as they attacked on the break.",
"And when a dangerous cross was sent in and contact at all by Dwight Gayle would have doubled the score, but fortunately for the Owls he did not.",
"As time ticked on Wednesday did not really threaten the Peterborough goal as they searched for the equaliser that would save their season.",
"Then a corner with just a few-minutes to go was whipped to the far-post and headed into the centre of the box where several Sheffield Wednesday players were and several Peterborough players attempted to clear off the line, Peterborough did clear the almighty goal mouth scramble and that was the last main piece of action of the game.",
"Peterborough United had pulled off their greatest victory of the season in the attempt to fight off the drop, but it meant Sheffield Wednesday were one-point clear with one game to go and a host of clubs could be relegated.",
"Millwall, who could also get relegated, played their game in hand against Crystal Palace mid-week which finished goalless.",
"So with one-game to go for all clubs, and with several of them still possible to finish 22nd and 23rd, therefore getting relegated (joining 24th Bristol City), the table looked as follows:",
"4 May 2013 fell to the last game of the Championship season, which turned out to be the biggest and most important game of the season for Sheffield Wednesday as by the end of the match at home to Middlesbrough it would be known whether Sheffield Wednesday had secured Championship safety or been relegated to League One.",
"In the biggest attendance of the season at Hillsborough the home players played to match the great atmosphere as they started brilliantly, with Jermaine Johnson firstly dribbling between several players before shooting well wide.",
"After the early first chance the Owls could not stop creating chances as soon after Seyi Olofinjana volleyed over the bar.",
"Wednesday's early attacking pressure soon paid off with just nine-minutes gone.",
"A fantastic long through ball by Miguel Llera saw Steve Howard turn his man and fire an unstoppable shot into the roof of the net, sending Hillsborough wild.",
"Middlesbrough's best chance of the half was a solo effort by Curtis Main but his shot went comfortably wide.",
"Sheffield Wednesday continued to pressurise the Middlesbrough defence though and good play by Owls' Player of the Year Lewis Buxton lead to Jermaine Johnson's distance shot just going wide.",
"As the half hour make just passed a corner whipped in by Lewis Buxton was poked into the net by Leroy Lita to double the Owls' advantage and to step them closer to the win that would secure survival.",
"Soon after the second-goal Jérémy Hélan won back the ball from the wide position and put in a clever ball towards Steve Howard to tap into the net, however Howard missed his kick and the ball deflected back off the goalkeeper back into his path, but this time his shot was somehow kept out by a magnificent goal line clearance.",
"Before the half-time whistle was blown Wednesday created another great chance, or at least Danny Pugh did.",
"Pugh took on two-players before firing a shot into the side netting.",
"It could have been at least three or four goals for Sheffield Wednesday by half-time and they should have scored the third early in the second half as a back pass by Middlesbrough went straight to Leroy Lita whose shot was saved well by the opposing goalkeeper.",
"The second half developed into a different game as neither team created many chances but Middlesbrough had the better of the play, a free header from a corner went over the bar and then Grant Leadbitter's long-distance shot went just wide of pulling a goal back for Middlesbrough.",
"Sheffield Wednesday did have the last main chance of the game though when Leroy Lita's header went just wide, but at first the outcome looked terrifying as Lita collided with another player leading to teammates from both teams urgently going to the attention of Lita and calling for the club doctors and physios immediately.",
"However, luckily Leroy Lita soon got up and although was subbed, walked off looking okay.",
"The final whistle eventually came at the end of five-minutes of stoppages, leading to a pitch invasion in celebration of Sheffield Wednesday confirming their place in next season's Football League Championship.",
"Elsewhere, Wolverhampton Wanderers joined Bristol City in next season's League One along with Peterborough United after a last-minute conceded goal saw them go down instead of Barnsley.",
"So far Doncaster Rovers and Bournemouth from League One, and Reading and Queens Park Rangers from the Premier League are confirmed be playing Championship football next season.",
"Players making their first team Sheffield Wednesday début in a fully competitive match.",
"Players scoring their first goal while playing their first game for Sheffield Wednesday in a competitive fixture."

"The first half ended with Wednesday two goals up.",
"Nikola Zigic did pull back a goal for Birmingham in the second half, but Jermaine Johnson sealed victory on the eighty-ninth minute, after going one-on-one with the goalkeeper.",
"However, Marlon King did score from the penalty-spot, with exactly the last kick of the game, after a clumsy challenge from Réda Johnson.",
"Wednesday went second in the league after two games, due to the number of goals scored.",
"Millwall were Wednesday's next opponents, again at home, and the Owls took the lead through the in-form Jermaine Johnson, who scored with a wonderful shot from outside the area.",
"However, as thunder and lightning struck Hillsborough Wednesday's level of performance dropped, and so did their lead with Millwall scoring twice through James Henry and Liam Trotter, and Sheffield Wednesday went into the break a goal behind.",
"Great team spirit and a higher level of performance saw Miguel Llera score a thoroughly deserved equaliser after a scramble in the box, which included the ball hitting the post and a wonderful save.",

"The end of a busy Tuesday saw Sheffield Wednesday face Premier League Fulham in the League Cup second round.",
"After an even first half, the Owls came out the better in the opening stages of the second half, and were rewarded after Chris Maguire was fouled inside the box and Gary Madine converted the penalty.",
"Nejc Pečnik later hit the bar, but the game finished 1–0, with Wednesday going into the Third Round.",
"The end of August every year always sees the end of the summer transfer window.",
"Wednesday were looking to capture at least another three or four more players before the window shuts on 31 August at 23:00 (BST).",

"Under an hour later it was confirmed that Giles Coke, who had played in the mid-week League Cup win against Fulham, had joined Swindon Town on loan for six-months.",
"Finally, with just over four-hours to go until the transfer window shuts Wednesday did confirm a capture, however only on a six-month loan deal.",
"Queens Park Rangers forward Jay Bothroyd had joined the club having in the past worked with manager Dave Jones at Cardiff City.",
"With eight-minutes to go until the transfer window shuts Sheffield Wednesday confirmed the signing of central defender Martin Taylor from Watford.",

"The late signing totalled a number of fourteen summer signings for Sheffield Wednesday (including loans), thirteen when excepting Diogo Amado who signed and then departed from the club.",
"The first day of September saw the Owls play their second away game of the season.",
"The game was against Crystal Palace and the last time the two teams met it was in the dramatic relegation 'play-off' on the last day of the 2009–2010 season.",
"The game kicked off and almost immediately Palace scored through Glenn Murray within the first minute, and although the Owls hit the woodwork they went into the break a goal down.",
"Five-minutes into the second half and Michail Antonio tapped in for the Owls to put them back on level terms.",
"After the referee correctly changed his mind over giving Crystal Palace a penalty, Glenn Murray scored his second of the game with seven-minutes to go.",
"The game finished in a 2–1 loss and saw manager Dave Jones' 17-match unbeaten run come to an end, and Wednesday's nineteen-match unbeaten run come to an end.",
"The first international break of the campaign arrived and saw two Sheffield Wednesday players going out on international duty.",
"Impressive youngster Rhys McCabe played the whole of the first game for the Scotland U-21's against Luxembourg U-21, however McCabe was only on the bench for the game against Austria U-21.",
"Nejc Pečnik for Slovenia did not come off the bench for the game against Switzerland, however did within just the first five minutes against Norway in which Slovenia lost 2–1.",
"Wednesday 12 September 2012, saw the eagerly anticipated release of over 400,000 pages of official documents from the Hillsborough Independent Panel, in relation to the Hillsborough disaster.",
"Sheffield Wednesday made a club statement on the day in which the Owls offered an apology to the families who lost loved ones in the disaster over twenty-three years ago and welcomed the release of the Hillsborough Independent Panel report.",
"Later on in the week and after the 'emergency loan market' opened, Wednesday sealed a one-month loan deal for eighteen-year-old Everton midfielder Ross Barkley, whom the club had been chasing for 'some time'.",
"Later that same Friday Wednesday played away to Brighton & Hove Albion.",
"After a fairly even first twenty-four minutes Manchester City-loanee Wayne Bridge hit a free-kick that took a large deflection off Rhys McCabe and went into the back of the net.",
"After that Brighton took control of the game and maybe deserved to be 2–0 up at the break.",
"The Owls came back slightly better after the break with Ross Barkley coming off the bench to make his debut.",
"However, Brighton soon went back to dominating the game and within ten minutes of the restart they scored again through top scorer Craig Mackail-Smith and four minutes later a good move saw Will Buckley to score and finish Wednesday off.",
"Debutant Jay Bothroyd came close to a late consolation goal but the result finished in a 3–0 loss for the Owls, their biggest loss since nearly exactly the same time last year.",
"Back on home soil, Wednesday faced Yorkshire rivals Huddersfield Town, and a great game was anticipated after last season's very dramatic 4–4 draw at Hillsborough Stadium.",
"The game however was introduced with a minutes silence in respect to those that we have all lost, after a long few weeks which saw the Hillsborough disaster being a major talking point in society and through the media and also due to a Huddersfield Town fan who had died the week previously in the war in Afghanistan.",
"The game then kicked off, and, within the first fifteen minutes of the game, Mark Beevers hit the bar for the Owls, and also James Vaughan of Huddersfield had an optimistic effort hit the bar.",
"However, a controversial penalty was awarded when Jermaine Johnson seemed to foul Jack Hunt in the area.",
"Oliver Norwood saw his penalty saved by Chris Kirkland but scored from the follow-up.",
"Just two minutes later and a diving header from Lee Novak doubled Huddersfield's lead, and saw echoes of last season's encounter at Hillsborough, where Huddersfield were also two-up at this stage.",
"Nearly twenty minutes later and Réda Johnson headed home to make the score 1–2.",
"A minute after the goal, Joel Lynch saw a straight red card, after a challenge on Michail Antonio.",
"With, Wednesday pushing for an equaliser before half-time, the Owls' defender Joe Mattock was sent-off deep in stoppage-time of the first half, with his first yellow card also being debatable.",
"Half-time was then called after an entertaining first half.",
"The second half began quite evenly, however eventually Wednesday started to push with Réda Johnson and Nejc Pečnik coming close.",
"However, referee Salisbury was centre of attention again when he awarded Huddersfield Town their second penalty of the match for a Rhys McCabe handball, which replays after the game saw the decision to be harsh and more of a ball-to-hand incident.",
"Adam Clayton stepped up and scored from the spot.",
"Réda Johnson missed an almost open-net late on and the game finished in a 1–3 loss, with a total of seven yellow cards and two reds being handed out.",
"This was Sheffield Wednesday's third defeat on the bounce, their first at home since February (after losing to Stevenage), and their biggest home defeat since March 2011 when they were defeated by Brentford.",
"Later that same week Wednesday were in action again at home, this time against recently relegated Premier League side Bolton Wanderers.",
"Although the Owls started brightly, with Michail Antonio looking the most troublesome player, the game became quite even and a Bolton corner saw Marcos Alonso score with a free-header.",
"Second half was similar to the first with quite an even contest, but the Owls did start to push for the equaliser and deservedly got it when a foul in the box was conceded and loanee Ross Barkley scored from the penalty spot.",
"However, just three minutes later and after a mistake by new-signing and captain Martin Taylor, Mark Davies curled a shot into the top corner of the goal, which saw Bolton Wanderers win the game 1–2.",
"This was the first time Sheffield Wednesday had been beaten in four consecutive league matches since September 2010.",
"A long away trip to the south coast saw Sheffield Wednesday face Premier League Southampton in Round 3 of the League Cup.",
"Many changes were made by both sides and young summer signing Paul Corry made his debut for the club.",
"After half-an-hour in, with Southampton slightly the better team, Jay Rodriguez scored.",
"Southampton went on to dominate the game but could not double their lead before half-time.",
"Southampton maintained their dominance in the second half and were awarded a penalty, which first replays are seen as to be quite harsh.",
"Jay Rodriguez stepped up and even though Stephen Bywater got a hand to the shot, he was unable to prevent Southampton from doubling their lead.",
"Although substitute Jermaine Johnson came close in the final seconds of the game, Sheffield Wednesday went out of the competition losing 2–0.",
"This was the first time since December 2009 that the Owls had lost five games consecutively in all competitions.",
"The last game of September came in another away game, this time against recently Premier League relegated side Wolverhampton Wanderers.",
"The game started with Wednesday on the front foot and arguably should have had a penalty when Michail Antonio was fouled in the box.",
"However, later on in the first half Wolves got into the game and when they got a free-kick on the edge of the area and took it quickly, the ball just went wide of the post.",
"The referee decided he was not ready for the free-kick to be taken and booked Bakary Sako, and asked them to re-take the free-kick.",
"The wall defending the free-kick was clearly not a full ten-yards back from the ball, but this time the referee did not ask the free-kick to be re-taken, and the ball hit the back of the net.",
"Wolves went into the break a goal up.",
"In the second half the game did not produce too many key chances, and the game finished in a 1–0 loss for the Owls, their sixth loss in a row.",
"2 October 2012 saw Sheffield Wednesday face Burnley at Turf Moor, with the Owls hoping to bring a stop to their six consecutive defeats.",
"With Wednesday having conceded seventeen goals in eleven games, and Burnley fifteen goals in eleven games, the clash was anticipated to include many goals.",
"After starting the better side, Sheffield Wednesday found themselves behind against the run of play, in-form Charlie Austin scoring on the twenty-second minute for Burnley.",
"Less than a minute later though Chris O'Grady had equalised for the Owls with Michail Antonio assisting.",
"Seven minutes before the break and Sheffield Wednesday found themselves behind again, Charlie Austin getting his second of the game.",
"Nearly halfway through the second half and Chris O'Grady scored again to make the scores 2–2.",
"Wednesday had several very good chances to win the game, but Charlie Austin managed to grab his hat-trick, and the Owls could have been heading for their seven consecutive defeat, but Michail Antonio hit a magnificent twenty-five yard strike less than a minute later, and the game ended in a very entertaining 3–3 draw.",
"The following Friday, the day before the home match against Hull City, it was confirmed that Wednesday Academy product Mark Beevers was to join Millwall on an emergency loan deal for 28-days, Beevers has so far made eight appearances this season for the Owls.",
"The day after Mark Beevers' one-month departure, Sheffield Wednesday faced Hull City at home, with the team looking to build on their dramatic draw from mid-week.",
"The first half went by without much action to report, with both teams seemingly to concentrate on their defensive duties, due to the number of goals each team has let in within recent games.",
"The second half saw a decision go against winger Michail Antonio, which could have arguably been given, and therefore ended up being a penalty kick.",
"However, with the game going towards a simple goalless draw, neat work by Hull City saw substitute Aaron McLean's shot creep into the far corner, and give Hull City the one goal victory.",
"The international break came with Wednesday having lost six of their last seven games.",
"Rhys McCabe was called up to the Scotland U-21 squad, but did not play due to injury.",

"The game kicked off with a very lively atmosphere, with both teams starting fired up and giving it their all.",
"The first chance fell to the Owls with Jay Bothroyd's long range shot being spilt by ex-Sheffield United goalkeeper Paddy Kenny, and then hitting the bar, before bouncing back into Kenny's hands.",
"Then Sheffield Wednesday should have been given a penalty and maybe even a red card for Leeds United, after a Leeds played handled the ball in the box, and put it out for a corner.",
"The referee missed this and the game continued goalless, until finally just before half-time the break through came.",
"A long throw in by Michail Antonio saw Jay Bothroyd jump highest and head home into the bottom corner.",

"It is being asked how they were able to enter the pitch, but the stewards and police were busy trying to handle fans in the corner from entering the Sheffield Wednesday stand.",
"The game eventually continued but was never as lively, and, although Sheffield Wednesday seemingly deserved all three points, they came away with just the one.",
"The incident or incidents with the Leeds United away support made headline news around the country after the game, and many, including both teams managers Neil Warnock and Dave Jones, calling for bans and fines on the Leeds United away support.",
"The assault on Chris Kirkland was caught live on television, and the culprit less than twenty-four hours later is already close to being caught, meanwhile South Yorkshire Police and the Football Association are investigating the incidents involving fans within the second half.",
"At the beginning of the week, it was confirmed that the Leeds United fan that had assaulted Chris Kirkland had been banned from attending football matches for just five-years and also jailed for sixteen-weeks, this being confirmed just three-days after the incident.",

"And after dominating large parts of the match and Michail Antonio coming particularly close, Wednesday just could not find the equaliser, or even two goals, of which they deserved.",
"Another loss loomed for Sheffield Wednesday, and although Dave Jones has apparently got chairman Milan Mandaric's support, fans are starting to get worried.",

"Sheffield Wednesday claimed their first away win of the season, and their first win since the end of August.",

"The second game of three within six days came against Blackpool at Hillsborough Stadium on 6 November.",

"Wednesday kept plenty of the ball in the second half, but were unable to create any chances, with the only key chance of Miguel Llera's header going high over the bar.",

"The third game in six days came away to Middlesbrough, live on Sky Sports on a Friday night.",

"Hoyte scored his second goal for Middlesbrough in nearly 150 appearances with a beautiful finish into the far corner of the net.",
"Although Middlesbrough looked more likely to score within the first ten-minutes after the goal, Sheffield Wednesday were unlucky to go into the break a goal down after playing better than the opposition for the second part of the first half.",
"Miguel Llera, Michail Antonio, Jay Bothroyd, and Ross Barkley all went close to scoring for Wednesday.",
"The Owls did get what they deserved just three-minutes into the second half with Gary Madine tapping in from close range.",
"However, replays showed that Madine was a good few yards offside.",
"After this Sheffield Wednesday found more confidence and looked more dangerous attackingly, however a lack of concentration at the back saw Ishmael Miller put Middlesbrough back in front, scoring into the empty net.",

"A very entertaining first half ended goalless, with both teams going close, particularly Gary Madine for Wednesday.",
"The second half was even more entertaining as Jay Bothroyd had his effort cleared off the line, Gary Madine going close on several occasions again, and Michail Antonio firing just over the bar having should have done better after coming close seconds earlier.",
"Nottingham Forest also came close through ex-Sheffield Wednesday forward Billy Sharp and Dexter Blackstock both having good chances.",
"Although the game was very even, Forest did take the lead with a ball into the box finding the head of Owls' defender Miguel Llera who scoring into his own net.",

"The beginning of the week after the loss against Nottingham Forest came more bad news for the Owls, as eighteen-year-old loanee and top scorer Ross Barkley was re-called by Everton.",
"Barkley who had impressed while on loan at Wednesday made 13 appearances scoring 4 goals.",

"New loan signings Mamady Sidibé and Jérémy Hélan were handed starts for their debuts, and the first twenty-minutes of the game was quite evenly contested.",
"However, Leicester City slowly started to take control of the match and deservedly took the lead with four-minutes to go until half-time as Danny Drinkwater volleyed home into the far corner, even though there should have been a foul given in favour of Wednesday within the build-up.",
"In the second half Leicester continued to play in the manner which reflected their near top of the league position.",
"Although, Sheffield Wednesday gave it a go and restricted Leicester City more, the Owls hardly created a chance.",
"Then on the seventy-sixth minute last season's loanee Ben Marshall cut inside and curled a delightful effort with his left-foot into the far corner to confirm Leicester City's victory.",
"Marshall did not celebrated however, in respect to his former club Sheffield Wednesday.",

"Later in the first half, a clever ball over the top saw Jay Bothroyd through one-on-one with the goalkeeper but was brought down by the defender behind him and won a penalty.",

"At half-time though the score was deservedly even with the score at 1–1.",
"The second half started with Forestieri going close for Watford, and neither team could gain control in the game.",
"Watford did push on however, and after the assistant referee made a poor decision by giving Watford a soft free-kick, the ball was floated into the box and a free-header by Alexandre Geijo found its way into the net.",

"In the second half, Gary Madine went agonisingly close, and should have scored, while Michail Antonio also went close.",
"Cardiff City pressurised Wednesday who were defending excellently and Craig Bellamy also had a header which he should have scored from.",
"Cardiff undeservedly scored though after great defending from the Owls.",
"After the ball bounced around in the box it came to the edge of the box where Craig Conway's shot went into the back of the net.",
"As the minutes ticked on it was not at all a comfortable ride for Cardiff City as Wednesday had attack after attack and goalkeeper Chris Kirkland came close after coming up for a last-minute corner.",

"The goal was not given though and neither was a penalty.",
"The referee said Miguel Llera had pushed him, while Miguel Llera has since explained that he had not.",

"Charlton was one of only two teams last season to beat Wednesday at Hillsborough.",
"Charlton Athletic started the better of the two teams and came close after great work by Danny Haynes.",

"Sheffield Wednesday remained on top for the majority of the rest of the half, although created little else.",

"Huddersfield's manager had words with the fourth official over the confusion, and a red card was not given with the player continuing on in the second half.",

"The defender escaped without a card, this decision was the first of many controversial decisions within the game.",
"Then on 24-minutes, a free-kick by Rhys McCabe was met by Réda Johnson whose effort was poorly saved by Hull City goalkeeper Eldin Jakupović and it rolled into the back of net, giving Wednesday the lead.",
"As Hull City began to pressurise Sheffield Wednesday, a counterattack was suddenly started and Jermaine Johnson's square pass to Michail Antonio had the goal gaping for the 0–2 lead.",

"Dave Jones opted to make seven-changes to the side from the weekend, which made clear how the league was always the team's priority.",

"The game finished and Wolves had somehow managed to hang on for the draw.",
"Although near the bottom of the table and points are grateful, with such dominance by Sheffield Wednesday throughout the game, it was seen as two points dropped rather than one point gained.",
"Another departure came in the last full week of January when it was announced that Chris Lines was to be going on loan to Milton Keynes Dons for the rest of the season.",
"The day before the Charlton Athletic game there was a total of four departures and arrivals at the club.",

"the ball was cleared off the line.",
"Then at the other end there was a fantastic chance for Charlton Athletic to take the lead, as ex-Owl Michael Morrison saw his diving header from just three-yards out hit the bar, with goalkeeper Chris Kirkland standing at the other end of the goal.",
"However, this chance could arguably have been a penalty as Michael Morrison was having his shirt clearly pulled by the opposing defender.",
"Another chance then fell to Wednesday as the goalkeeper Ben Hamer was unable to catch a long-ball forward by Lewis Buxton and it fell to Réda Johnson who near enough missed an open net.",
"Into the second half and a counter-attack from a Sheffield Wednesday corner saw a chance by Johnnie Jackson taken, and Charlton had broken the dead-lock to put the home side a goal up.",
"After this Wednesday pressurised for an equaliser, and Michail Antonio, Jermaine Johnson, and substitute debútant Leroy Lita all came close.",
"However, through Wednesday's chances, a rare attack for Charlton saw them go on and hit the post.",
"And while it all looked again that the Owls were not going to be able to score despite their chances, a cross from Lewis Buxton with six-minutes to go saw Réda Johnson's looping header go into the far corner of the net.",
"Even after the equaliser Sheffield Wednesday pushed for a possible winner.",
"Then with one-minute of normal time to go, Leroy Lita's shot took a large deflection and nestled into the other bottom corner.",

"Elsewhere, while it was largely believed that Jérémy Hélan had joined Watford on loan, talks between the two parties had broken down and Hélan did return to Sheffield Wednesday after all.",
"Transfer deadline day eventually came and with many moves happening across the globe, the day was fairly quiet for Sheffield Wednesday.",
"At 15:55 a departure was confirmed, as forward Chris O'Grady moved to Barnsley on loan until the rest of the season, after seemingly losing his place for the second half of the season.",
"With one forward departing, it was questioned over fans whether another would join the club before the end of the day.",
"Brighton & Hove Albion were the visitors at Hillsborough Stadium for the first game in February.",
"Brighton had only lost twice in their last sixteen games, but it was Wednesday who started the brighter of the two teams and got their reward after just five-minutes when a cross from Michail Antonio found loanee Leroy Lita whose effort hit the top corner of the goal to score his second goal in as many appearances for the club.",
"Brighton almost immediately hit back though when a free-kick found Brighton's new signing Leonardo Ulloa whose strike was smartly saved by Chris Kirkland.",
"After this Brighton & Hove Albion pushed for the equaliser, but a late and vicious challenge near the Brighton box by Ashley Barnes saw him see a straight red card, this putting the game back into Sheffield Wednesday's favour.",
"The resulting free-kick was taken by other new loanee Danny Pugh who managed to score from the tight angle to double the Owls' lead.",
"Into the second half and Leroy Lita came close before great work by Brighton substitute Craig Mackail-Smith, along with a poor clearance, saw a strike by Andrea Orlandi smash the back of the net to make the score 2–1.",
"However, just two-minutes later at the other end of the field, and a clever corner saw Michail Antonio manage to just tap home to give Wednesday their two-goal cushion back.",
"Then with fifteen-minutes to go a late challenge by Danny Pugh, which analysts believe the referee to have opted the right punishment of a yellow card, caused disagreements and a scuffle on the touchline between coaching staff of both clubs.",
"A Brighton coaching staff member was sent to the stands, along with Sheffield Wednesday manager Dave Jones.",
"The only notable chance before the game ended was from Giles Coke whose strike was comfortably saved, and the game finished with a thoroughly deserved and pleasing victory for Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The day before the home game against Derby County, and just after the emergency loan window had re-opened, it was confirmed that Sheffield Wednesday had signed another forward on loan.",
"This was to be England U21 international Connor Wickham from Sunderland.",
"It is rumoured that Wednesday had attempted to bring the player in earlier on in the season, but now Sunderland have brought an extra striker in during the transfer window, meaning it was now possible to sign him.",
"So nine-days into the second month of the year and Sheffield Wednesday faced Derby County at Hillsborough Stadium.",
"Derby started the brighter of the two-teams and got their reward after twenty-three minutes as neat passing play down the middle saw Jeff Hendrick through on goal and he slotted the ball comfortably pass Chris Kirkland and into the back of the net.",
"As things were not going well Connor Wickham was introduced with only just over half-an-hour gone to make his debut.",
"Michail Antonio come close with a long-range effort before the break, but it was Derby County who went into half-time a goal up.",

"The game started lively with Marlon King having two opportunities for Birmingham, with one going wide and the other comfortably saved by Kirkland.",

"The last time the two teams met at Hillsborough it was a relegation-'play-off' with either of the two teams possibly being relegated – it was however Sheffield Wednesday who ended up facing the drop that day.",
"The game kicked off with both sets of fans getting right behind the two teams and it was David Prutton's volley that was the first piece of action, with the ball firing just over the bar.",

"A usual fantastic cross from Michail Antonio found the head of Leroy Lita, with just nine-minutes to go.",

"The game finished 1–0, a great result for Sheffield Wednesday as they moved five-points clear of the relegation zone.",
"The Crystal Palace game was the last of February and the remaining five-days of the month saw a Milan Mandarić interview, around two-years after taking over the club, a fans' forum where general questions were asked by fans to manager Dave Jones and chairman Milan Mandarić.",
"It also saw, on 26 February, one year since the club beat Sheffield United at Hillsborough Stadium, where the club then saw Gary Megson sacked as manager and the long unbeaten run to promotion begin.",
"With ex-manager Gary Megson being sacked last year at the end of February, it meant manager Dave Jones' first anniversary of being appointed.",
"However, it was not a great anniversary 'off-the-field' as an exclusive article on the front page of the national newspaper The Sun talked about Dave Jones' personal life, and how he had been having an affair with a well-known netball player.",
"This out-break of news through the media came at unfortunate timing as it was a day before the televised clash with Nottingham Forest.",
"The fans just hoped that this news 'off-the-field' would not affect the performances 'on-the-field'.",
"So the late game the next day against Nottingham Forest kicked off live on Sky Sports.",
"The game started with quite a few good chances with Dexter Blackstock having a shot off-target for Nottingham Forest, while Connor Wickham's header also came close.",
"Forest captain Danny Collins then had his header go a whisker wide of the post, but looked like the player should have scored.",
"Nottingham Forest started to play some brilliant football, and went on to dominate the first half.",
"Dexter Blackstock had a goal disallowed for offside, and then Forest got their reward with some brilliant football and teamwork that saw Radosław Majewski slot the ball home into the almost empty net.",
"Nottingham Forest continued to dominate before half-time and Chris Kirkland was forced into making one fine save, before Simon Cox also went close.",
"Somehow the teams went into the break with Sheffield Wednesday only trailing by the one goal.",
"The second half was found to be more of an even contest, however Nottingham Forest continued to look comfortable on the ball and in defence, limiting Wednesday with just a few half-chances.",
"Leroy Lita's shot for example was comfortably saved and Michail Antonio's left-footed shot went just over the bar.",

"The game finished in a loss for Sheffield Wednesday – their first for two-months, as they dropped to four-points adrift of the relegation zone.",
"One-day off exactly a year since Dave Jones took charge in his first full game at Sheffield Wednesday (the 4–1 win against Bury), the Owls faced an away game against third in the league Watford – who were inevitably in good form.",
"However, before this game the Sheffield Wednesday U-21 squad were due to play the Leeds United U-21 squad at Hillsborough, the game was confirmed to have been postponed at around 5 o'clock that afternoon in most extraordinary circumstances, as police had found an unexploded bomb just outside the ground.",
"At 19:45 later that evening Sheffield Wednesday did kick-off against Watford at Vicarage Road.",
"The first ten-minutes of the game started as the whole game was expected to be like, when looking at the league tables, with Watford having plenty of the ball and attacking Sheffield Wednesday consistently.",
"Troy Deeney had his shot go just wide of the post, before the best chance of the game at this point fell to Matěj Vydra whose effort hit the outside of the post.",
"Then, at the other end of the pitch, Jérémy Hélan's troublesome dribbling and pace saw him worry the defence into making a back pass, where Watford goalkeeper Jonathan Bond made a mistake, which led to Michail Antonio giving the Owls the lead, scoring from a tight angle.",
"After the goal Sheffield Wednesday were by far the better team and arguably should have been at least three or four goals up by half-time.",
"A great free-kick by Miguel Llera saw Jonathan Bond make a fabulous save right in the top corner of the goal, this save saw a header from Lewis Buxton just cleared-off the line by an opposition defender as Anthony Gardner tried to put the ball home as well.",
"However, replays show that Lewis Buxton's header en route to goal was handled by a Watford defender, trying to stop the ball from going into the net, and the ball that was then cleared off the line by another defender had actually crossed the line after all, therefore Sheffield Wednesday should have either been given a penalty and Watford down to ten-men, or Sheffield Wednesday should be two-goals up.",
"After this incident, superb play by Jérémy Hélan once more, saw his volley finely saved by the goalkeeper, and Kieran Lee's effort somehow go wide of the goal, with it looking easier for ball to put into the back of the net.",
"Wednesday went on to have a few half chances before the break, but so did Watford as Chris Kirkland made one fine save.",
"Half-time was called and although a good lead for Sheffield Wednesday, they really should have been leading by more.",
"The second half started like the first with Watford on top and a corner they had was flicked on at the near post and met by substitute Fernando Forestieri who tapped home the equaliser.",
"The Owls felt really hard done by, and Watford were now the team with the ascendancy and the home crowd right behind them.",
"Watford continued to pressurise and good work by Fernando Forestieri just outside the area saw his shot miss three or four players before somehow finding the back of the net.",
"Watford had turned the game on its head.",
"Both sides had reasonable half-chances before the end of the game, and although Sheffield Wednesday gave it everything for the equaliser they just could not get it.",
"The game finished in a 2–1 defeat and Watford moved up to second, while Sheffield Wednesday went just two-points adrift of the relegation zone, with more very tough games coming up – fifth placed Leicester City were next before heading back home to face top of the league Cardiff City.",
"So the second-game of the week saw the Owls travelling to play Leicester City.",
"Both teams started the game lively and it was Leicester who had the first opportunity of the game when a clever volley from David Nugent forced Chris Kirkland into making a good save.",
"Then at the other end of the pitch Michail Antonio managed to beat his man and send a fantastic cross over to the far post where Leroy Lita somehow managed to head the ball over the bar.",
"Ritchie De Laet managed to beat his man later on in the game and forced another great save from Kirkland when he powered a shot towards goal.",
"It remained goalless at half-time and Leicester had the first major opportunity in the second half when a cross in the box saw Harry Kane head over the bar, when the player seemingly should have at least got the header on target.",
"At the other end of pitch Lita sent a fine through-ball to Michail Antonio whose one-on-one effort was saved by Kasper Schmeichel.",
"As the game remained very even with equally as good chances falling to both teams it was with twenty-minutes to go when Lewis Buxton sent in a cross, Michail Antonio flicked on and a volley by loanee Connor Wickham gave Sheffield Wednesday a vital lead.",
"As the clock ticked on towards full-time a Leicester City corner saw Andy King's header hit the outside of the post and go wide.",
"Fortunately for the Owls it was the last piece of major action in the game and Sheffield Wednesday gained a vital victory on the road to safety.",
"Onto the weekend of 16 March, Sheffield Wednesday faced top of the league Cardiff City at home, this was the last game of the run where Wednesday faced five of the top six teams in the league, it was also the last game before the international break.",
"The first half only had very few minor incidents, with the only one note worthy of was when Leroy Lita looked like he could have been obstructed in the box and had claims for a penalty turned down.",
"As the game looked to go in as a goalless draw at the break, a corner by Cardiff was punched out by Kirkland and Don Cowie fired a shot towards goal that could not quite be stopped by David Prutton on the line, as the ball trickled into the net.",
"Cardiff City went luckily into the break a goal up.",
"The majority of the second half was similar to the first with only very few minor chances.",
"However, with twenty-minutes in, a free-kick from Cardiff saw Matthew Connolly score from a free-header, somehow giving Cardiff City a 0–2 lead.",
"After this Sheffield Wednesday had better chances to score as Miguel Llera had two free-kicks saved by the opposition keeper and Leroy Lita had a goal disallowed for offside, while also a shot cleared off line after Anthony Gardner's header could not find the net.",
"The game finished and it was not particularly the result that saddened the fans but the results elsewhere and the league table.",
"All the teams around Sheffield Wednesday (apart from Bristol City as they played Wolves) won, this being Millwall, Huddersfield Town, Barnsley, Peterborough United, Ipswich Town, Birmingham City, and Wolves.",
"This left Sheffield Wednesday just one-point and place above the relegation zone with two massive games coming up, against Barnsley and Bristol City.",
"As the 2-week international break was in progress, there was some very bad news for Sheffield Wednesday, as it was confirmed that the groin injury Michail Antonio had picked up against Cardiff City at the weekend, meant that Michail Antonio would be out for the rest of the season.",
"Michail Antonio is well in the lead as the club's top goalscorer and even further ahead with assists this season, as he has nine.",
"This very bad news came at probably the most pivotal point of the season for Sheffield Wednesday as with just over a month to go before the end of the season the club are just one point and place above the relegation zone, and games such as Barnsley, Bristol City, and Peterborough United all still to come.",
"The last few days before the end of March, and the Easter weekend relegation clashes against Barnsley and Bristol City, saw the end of the emergency loan window.",
"Having just lost two-key players of Michail Antonio and Connor Wickham, along with the possibility of Giles Coke being out for a longer amount of time, manager ave Jones made three loan signings over the last two-days of the emergency loan window.",
"Firstly, Hull City experienced midfielder Seyi Olofinjana was signed until the end-of-the-season, and then one of Bolton Wanderers' star men, Stuart Holden, signed for one-month having just come back from injury and looking for some game time.",
"Then just a few-minutes later it was confirmed forward Steve Howard had been signed for the rest of the season on loan from bottom of League One side Hartlepool United.",
"The signing of Howard was by far the strangest as the 36-year-old has been unable to even break into the Hartlepool side, who were bottom of the league below Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The Easter weekend came and the Owls faced local rivals and also a mighty relegation battle against Barnsley, who were in very good form.",
"It was seen as the biggest game of the season so far, with the crowd amounting to the highest attendance of the season so far at Hillsborough.",
"The game started with both teams fired-up and looking for the win.",
"Leroy Lita had an early goal correctly disallowed for offside, while the same then happened to Marlon Harewood at the other end, however he did not hit the target.",
"Lita then had a goal mouth scramble eventually cleared away by Barnsley.",
"Both teams had cancelled each other out in the first half and although they were both giving it their all in this clash, they both somehow needed to find more in order to try to get a winner.",
"Into the second half and substitute Reuben Noble-Lazarus had a long-distance shot very well saved by Chris Kirkland.",
"Another substitute by Barnsley, Jason Scotland, then had a chance as his shot was also well saved by Kirkland.",
"Then soon after at the other end of the pitch, good link up play between Jermaine Johnson and Lewis Buxton saw a cross into the box met by Gary Madine who tapped home a vital Sheffield Wednesday goal to give them the lead.",
"Madine then had several shots within a few-seconds saved and blocked when there was another goal-mouth scramble in the box.",
"Then with just over ten-minutes to go, plus stoppage time, a free-kick taken by Miguel Llera was launched into the box and Réda Johnson headed home to give Wednesday a fantastic two-goal lead.",
"With six-minutes to go the Owls were then wrongly given a penalty for handball.",
"Gary Madine stepped up but very poorly ended-up putting the ball wide.",
"Three-minutes later and Lewis Buxton failed to stay ten-yards away when Barnsley were given a free-kick just outside the area.",
"Buxton was shown a second yellow-card and was sent-off.",
"There was six-minutes added time and in the second Jacob Mellis volleyed a ball into the far-corner to give Barnsley a chance of gaining something from the game.",
"However, it was not to be and the game ended with a great chance for Barnsley just going wide, however the chance had been given as offside anyway.",
"Just two-days later and Sheffield Wednesday faced another massive game as they faced another relegation-contender as they played bottom-of-the-league Bristol City away at Ashton Gate.",
"The first chance of the game on Easter Monday came to Bristol City as a great ball into the box was just unable to meet Steve Davies' head.",
"Five changes were made by the Owls from the side that won against Barnsley, one of which was Steve Howard, who with ten minutes to go before half-time flicked on a ball which Jermaine Johnson just got to before the defender and found himself through on-goal, Jermaine Johnson cleverly went around the goalkeeper and passed the ball into the back of the net to give the Owls a vital lead.",
"After this Steve Davies also found himself through on goal at the other end for Bristol City, he hit the post but the chance had been waved for offside anyway.",
"The first major chance in the second half was created by Jermaine Johnson who dribbled in and out of several defender's and could not find either the net or Giles Coke at the far post.",
"With fifteen-minutes to go tempers flared as one of the Bristol City defender's dived in the box which made several of the Wednesday players furious, particularly Chris Kirkland, but the referee gave the right decision and the offender was shown a yellow card.",
"As time ticked on Bristol City pressed for an equaliser and thought their moment had gone when Albert Adomah volleyed well over the bar having expected to do a lot better.",
"However, as the game went into the second-minute of stoppage time a cross into the box was not caught as Chris Kirkland had planned as he was clattered by an opposition player, the ball landed perfectly for Sam Baldock to volley home for the game to finish 1–1.",
"4 points from two games was seen as pretty successful for Sheffield Wednesday, however their other relegation rivals continued to do even better, for example Wolves who were in the relegation-zone at the beginning of Monday, beat Birmingham (who had just beaten fourth-place Crystal Palace 0–4, away on Friday).",
"As the last full month of games began the league table saw second-to-bottom (twenty-third) on 45 points, then four teams above this were all on forty-seven (including Sheffield Wednesday).",
"Wolves were one point above this tally, while seventeenth-to-fifteenth were all on fifty points.",
"Peterborough United and Huddersfield Town, two of three teams below Sheffield Wednesday had not played on the Monday, and were due to play the following day.",
"On 6 April, Sheffield Wednesday faced another massive game as they played Blackburn Rovers at Hillsborough, with Blackburn being on the same number of points as Wednesday and as equally in danger of being relegated.",
"The game started very lively from both teams, as they both attacked from the early stages looking for the vital win.",
"The first major talking point was only twelve minutes into the game, as Chris Kirkland just beat Jordan Rhodes in the box chasing down a long-ball, however Kirkland only managed to pat it to the opposition player David Dunn, Dunn knocked it round the keeper who then just pulled him back slightly and a penalty was given.",
"Dunn had knocked the ball quite far and therefore only a yellow card was shown, and not a red due to it not being a definite goal scoring opportunity.",
"Jordan Rhodes, who scored four-goals at his one visit at this ground last season, stepped up and sent Chris Kirkland the wrong way to give Blackburn the lead.",
"Not ten minutes later however, and a stretched Blackburn players foot gave Jermaine Johnson the ball just outside the area, whose trickery went round one player and finished finely into the bottom far corner to bring the scores back level again.",
"Sheffield Wednesday were easily on top for the rest of the half after this goal, with Réda Johnson turning brilliantly but blasting over the bar, soon after though and Réda Johnson went over in the box after his shirt was being pulled, the referee decided in giving another penalty in this game.",
"Sheffield Wednesday had only scored one penalty and missed three so far this season, however the record was improved when Leroy Lita fired the penalty into the roof of the net.",
"Lita then had a chance to put the Owls two goals clear by the break but the opposition goalkeeper made a save.",
"Into the second half and Sheffield Wednesday could not get into their stride and Blackburn Rovers had large amounts of play but created very little, although Jordan Rhodes and David Jones did come close.",
"It was not until just under twenty-minutes to go when Blackburn Rovers got what they deserved.",
"A corner came back out to Colin Kazim-Richards, who whipped a ball into the box which was met by Scott Dann who headed home to put the scores back level again.",
"After this the game became more even and Sheffield Wednesday got their foot in the game again and when the on-form Jermaine Johnson got the ball at this feet, just six minutes after the Blackburn goal, he dribbled with his pace and unleashed a fiere shot from 25 yards into the far bottom corner to give Sheffield Wednesday another vital lead.",
"Jermaine Johnson then sent Jérémy Hélan through on goal before the end of the match, but Hélan could not finish the game off.",
"Sheffield Wednesday gained another vital and fantastic victory, and with results elsewhere going their way, they managed to climb three-points clear of the relegation-zone and putting Blackburn in it.",
"Sheffield Wednesday played Millwall just three days after the Blackburn game.",
"The Millwall game was the game that the Owls had in hand over the majority of the other teams in the league, and therefore was seen as probably the most important game of the season so far, as it could see Sheffield Wednesday go six points clear of the relegation-zone and up to fourteenth in the league – their highest point since early October.",
"Millwall, who themselves could still possibly get relegated, had the first chance after just two minutes, when several strong 50–50 challenges took place within just a few seconds around the middle of the field, eventually saw the ball go out wide where a Millwall player took on two players, crossed into the box and at the far-post Jimmy Abdou tapped into the empty net to give Millwall a crucial early lead.",
"It was the first chance of the game, a chance that was scored.",
"Soon after a bobble on the edge of the area saw Millwall and ex-Sheffield United player Rob Hulse through on goal but Kirkland prevented him from dribbling the ball around him.",
"Although Steve Howard had a shot well saved for Sheffield Wednesday, Millwall remained on top of the game with ex-Owl Mark Beevers coming close.",
"With five minutes to go until half-time Sheffield Wednesday were awarded a free-kick around thirty yards from goal which Miguel Llera stood up and curled the ball into the bottom corner to leave the scores level at half-time, although Wednesday will have been wondering how they had come in at the break on level terms at all.",
"The second half was much similar to the first with Millwall being on top, however the Owls defended much better this time around.",
"Millwall still created chances though, Jermaine Easter had two, one of which was a one-on-one that was well saved by Kirkland, and he then later made another great save as a corner lead to Sean St Ledger over-head kicking the ball towards the bottom corner of the net.",
"In-form Jermaine Johnson came on off the bench for the Owls and had a brilliant solo-run that ended with the ball just going inches wide from back of the net.",
"It was Sheffield Wednesday's one of very few chances, and Millwall continued to pressurise and a long-ball forward saw Danny Shittu and Chris Kirkland come together and the ball dropped to a Millwall player whose shot was cleared off the line by Miguel Llera, although the whistle had just been blown for a foul on Kirkland.",
"As the clocked ticked down and the game went into the second minute of stoppage time Sheffield Wednesday earned a corner that was whipped towards the near post and it was substitute Chris Maguire who volleyed the ball home from a tight angle to send players, staff and the Owls fans 'bananas'.",
"Somehow Sheffield Wednesday had managed to win the game, and it was a result and goal that would hopefully be looked back on at the end of the season as the game that kept Sheffield Wednesday up in the Championship.",
"Another massive game came just a few days later in an early kick-off against Yorkshire rivals Leeds United.",
"The last contest between the two teams saw a fierce game on and off the pitch, with the most significant moment being when a Leeds United fan ran on the pitch and pushed goalkeeper Chris Kirkland in the face.",
"The game at Elland Road saw Leeds's new manager Brian McDermott in charge for the first time, and it started with Rodolph Austin having quite a few attempts although they were all from long distance and went well-wide from the target.",
"Both teams were cancelling out each other well, and when the ball was punted up field and flicked on by Jérémy Hélan, Jermaine Johnson's pace beat the opposition defender to the ball, and hooked it over the on-rushing keeper to put Wednesday a goal up.",
"Into the beginning of the second half and Leeds started to take control of the game and Steve Morison had a brilliant chance when he went through on goal and when he was just about to pull the trigger Réda Johnson came in with a fantastic tackle to keep the Owls in the lead.",
"Soon after Sheffield Wednesday were constantly having to make great saves and throwing bodies on the line to prevent Leeds United from scoring, but eventually it was not enough.",
"After all that fantastic defending the equaliser came from a free-header by ex-Owl Luke Varney to put the scores deservedly level.",
"However, Leeds continued to be on top and just a few minutes later another cross by Ross McCormack met another free-header by Luke Varney who took it very well again and Leeds United were then in front.",
"After this however, Sheffield Wednesday were on top of the game as they pushed for the equaliser.",
"Steve Howard came ever so close when hitting the post, and Leroy Lita's header from just a few yards out somehow did not end up in the back of the net.",
"On another day Sheffield Wednesday would have got something from this game, but today was not the day and the derby finished Leeds United 2–1 Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The Owls were now in sixteenth, but just four points above the relegation-zone.",
"The third away game in succession came as Wednesday faced Blackpool on a pitch, after all the poor winter weather, had been described many of times as being a 'beach' rather than a football pitch.",
"As Dave Jones sat in the stand for his last game of the two-game touchline ban, Sheffield Wednesday started by far the strongest team and had two really good chances within just the first five minutes; Jermaine Johnson just nicked the ball off one of the opposition defender's but his shot was well saved by Matt Gilks, then another mistake lead to Giles Coke striking a fierce shot from 25-yards which forced an even better save out of Matt Gilks.",
"Thomas Ince went close at the other end of the pitch with a long-distance shot, and then a mistake – this time by Wednesday – led by another in quick succession due to the poor pitch condition, saw Ince through one-on-one, but Chris Kirkland pulled out a good save to turn the ball behind for a corner.",
"Into the second half and a corner by Blackpool saw one of their players have the best opportunity of the game when he hit the bar, this then led to a cross and a goal-mouth scramble which was eventually cleared away by the Owls.",
"Apart from this the second half only entertained some half-chances, but both keepers had to ensure they were on their guard.",
"The final whistle blew and it was seen as good point for Sheffield Wednesday as it was an extra point towards safety.",
"The last three o'clock kick-off of the season for Sheffield Wednesday was when the Owls faced Ipswich Town at Hillsborough Stadium, with points for either team being vital in securing Championship safety.",
"It was Ipswich who had the first chance of the game when a corner was whipped in and headed down at the far post to see Danny Pugh fortunately being able to clear off the line.",
"It was not too long into the game when the first goal did come, and it was poor defending by Sheffield Wednesday when a long throw-in was not headed clear by Miguel Llera, and Jay Tabb easily tapped the ball into the net.",
"Soon after the goal Chris Kirkland made a great save from a volley outside the box.",
"Wednesday's luck soon got worse though as a tactical substitution saw Kieran Lee replaced by Steve Howard, seeing Wednesday's main goal threat, Jermaine Johnson, go out on the wing.",
"Just three minutes later Jermaine Johnson pulled his hamstring and another sub had to be made, and if Jermaine Johnson had injured himself before the tactical substitution, then Steve Howard would most likely have just replaced him, however instead two subs had been made within half-an-hour, and another injury was added to the list, unfortunately it was Sheffield Wednesday's main goal threat.",
"The Owls did have a great opportunity when Steve Howard had a free header sail over the bar from a corner.",
"Before half-time though a goal-mouth scramble saw a Leroy Lita volley saved and then Anthony Gardner's shot cleared off the line by an opposing defender.",
"Ipswich went close with a shot just a few minutes into the second half, but Sheffield Wednesday continued to make chances of their own, such as when Miguel Llera had a great effort in the area well saved by the opposing goalkeeper.",
"Finally the well deserved equaliser did come, and it was good link up play between Chris Maguire and Lewis Buxton down wing that produced a cross that managed to make its way to the back post where Leroy Lita scored an unstoppable shot into the bottom corner.",
"Miguel Llera then soon had a free-header which he somehow failed to put into the back of the net and then when Jérémy Hélan's pace on the wing produced a cross, Leroy Lita headed home to send Hillsborough wild.",
"However, scenes soon died down as the goal was disallowed for offside.",
"The last main piece of action of the game came from another long-throw from Ipswich, which Kirkland failed to punch clear, it was flicked on with the ball heading towards the empty net but luckily Danny Pugh was there yet again to clear off the line.",
"It left the Owls four-points from safety, like several other teams, with just two games to go.",
"In arguably the biggest game of the season, Sheffield Wednesday travelled to face Peterborough United in a late kick-off in front of the live Sky Sports television camera's.",
"With some of the earlier results going Sheffield Wednesday's way the Owls only needed a point to secure Championship safety.",
"However, if the Owls lost it would mean they would be one point above the relegation zone with one game to go.",
"With Wednesday without both star men Michail Antonio and Jermaine Johnson, along with Peterborough having only lost once in eleven games, it was Peterborough who had the majority of possession in the first half.",
"The first chance also fell to Peterborough when Dwight Gayle's out-stretched foot managed to get a shot-off which was only half-saved by Chris Kirkland and the ball continued to roll towards the net, but Miguel Llera was there to clear it away before anybody could get an extra touch to it.",
"Danny Pugh made a great clearance after a cross, but then at the other end Giles Coke forced a good save out of the opposition goalkeeper to keep the scores level.",
"A free-kick for the Owls then saw a scramble in the box that fell sweetly for Jérémy Hélan to volley, but Peterborough were putting their bodies on the line to block the shot.",
"Soon the best chance of the game so far came when Sheffield Wednesday's corner was whipped to the far post and Anthony Gardner somehow headed wide when it was just a simple tap in.",
"That was the last main piece of action of the half and as things stood the Owls were safe.",
"Another half was still to be played though and when Gayle soon had a shot stopped by Miguel Llera the Peterborough players appealed for handball, however it was not given and replays showed it looked more like ball-to-hand.",
"As Peterborough continued to be on top Anthony Gardner failed to clear his lines and ended up conceding a free-kick 25-yards out.",
"Grant McCann stepped up and curled the ball around the wall and it hit the inside of the post...and went in.",
"Peterborough celebrated wildly as it could mean a lot in a weeks time when deciding who would get relegated.",
"As Wednesday went in search of an equaliser Peterborough still looked more likely to score as they attacked on the break.",
"And when a dangerous cross was sent in and contact at all by Dwight Gayle would have doubled the score, but fortunately for the Owls he did not.",
"As time ticked on Wednesday did not really threaten the Peterborough goal as they searched for the equaliser that would save their season.",
"Then a corner with just a few-minutes to go was whipped to the far-post and headed into the centre of the box where several Sheffield Wednesday players were and several Peterborough players attempted to clear off the line, Peterborough did clear the almighty goal mouth scramble and that was the last main piece of action of the game.",
"Peterborough United had pulled off their greatest victory of the season in the attempt to fight off the drop, but it meant Sheffield Wednesday were one-point clear with one game to go and a host of clubs could be relegated.",
"Millwall, who could also get relegated, played their game in hand against Crystal Palace mid-week which finished goalless.",
"So with one-game to go for all clubs, and with several of them still possible to finish 22nd and 23rd, therefore getting relegated (joining 24th Bristol City), the table looked as follows:",
"4 May 2013 fell to the last game of the Championship season, which turned out to be the biggest and most important game of the season for Sheffield Wednesday as by the end of the match at home to Middlesbrough it would be known whether Sheffield Wednesday had secured Championship safety or been relegated to League One.",
"In the biggest attendance of the season at Hillsborough the home players played to match the great atmosphere as they started brilliantly, with Jermaine Johnson firstly dribbling between several players before shooting well wide.",
"After the early first chance the Owls could not stop creating chances as soon after Seyi Olofinjana volleyed over the bar.",
"Wednesday's early attacking pressure soon paid off with just nine-minutes gone.",
"A fantastic long through ball by Miguel Llera saw Steve Howard turn his man and fire an unstoppable shot into the roof of the net, sending Hillsborough wild.",
"Middlesbrough's best chance of the half was a solo effort by Curtis Main but his shot went comfortably wide.",
"Sheffield Wednesday continued to pressurise the Middlesbrough defence though and good play by Owls' Player of the Year Lewis Buxton lead to Jermaine Johnson's distance shot just going wide.",
"As the half hour make just passed a corner whipped in by Lewis Buxton was poked into the net by Leroy Lita to double the Owls' advantage and to step them closer to the win that would secure survival.",
"Soon after the second-goal Jérémy Hélan won back the ball from the wide position and put in a clever ball towards Steve Howard to tap into the net, however Howard missed his kick and the ball deflected back off the goalkeeper back into his path, but this time his shot was somehow kept out by a magnificent goal line clearance.",
"Before the half-time whistle was blown Wednesday created another great chance, or at least Danny Pugh did.",
"Pugh took on two-players before firing a shot into the side netting.",
"It could have been at least three or four goals for Sheffield Wednesday by half-time and they should have scored the third early in the second half as a back pass by Middlesbrough went straight to Leroy Lita whose shot was saved well by the opposing goalkeeper.",
"The second half developed into a different game as neither team created many chances but Middlesbrough had the better of the play, a free header from a corner went over the bar and then Grant Leadbitter's long-distance shot went just wide of pulling a goal back for Middlesbrough.",
"Sheffield Wednesday did have the last main chance of the game though when Leroy Lita's header went just wide, but at first the outcome looked terrifying as Lita collided with another player leading to teammates from both teams urgently going to the attention of Lita and calling for the club doctors and physios immediately.",
"However, luckily Leroy Lita soon got up and although was subbed, walked off looking okay.",
"The final whistle eventually came at the end of five-minutes of stoppages, leading to a pitch invasion in celebration of Sheffield Wednesday confirming their place in next season's Football League Championship.",
"Elsewhere, Wolverhampton Wanderers joined Bristol City in next season's League One along with Peterborough United after a last-minute conceded goal saw them go down instead of Barnsley.",
"So far Doncaster Rovers and Bournemouth from League One, and Reading and Queens Park Rangers from the Premier League are confirmed be playing Championship football next season.",
"Players making their first team Sheffield Wednesday début in a fully competitive match.",
"Players scoring their first goal while playing their first game for Sheffield Wednesday in a competitive fixture."

"Half-time was then called after an entertaining first half.",
"The second half began quite evenly, however eventually Wednesday started to push with Réda Johnson and Nejc Pečnik coming close.",
"However, referee Salisbury was centre of attention again when he awarded Huddersfield Town their second penalty of the match for a Rhys McCabe handball, which replays after the game saw the decision to be harsh and more of a ball-to-hand incident.",
"Adam Clayton stepped up and scored from the spot.",
"Réda Johnson missed an almost open-net late on and the game finished in a 1–3 loss, with a total of seven yellow cards and two reds being handed out.",
"This was Sheffield Wednesday's third defeat on the bounce, their first at home since February (after losing to Stevenage), and their biggest home defeat since March 2011 when they were defeated by Brentford.",
"Later that same week Wednesday were in action again at home, this time against recently relegated Premier League side Bolton Wanderers.",
"Although the Owls started brightly, with Michail Antonio looking the most troublesome player, the game became quite even and a Bolton corner saw Marcos Alonso score with a free-header.",

"This was the first time since December 2009 that the Owls had lost five games consecutively in all competitions.",
"The last game of September came in another away game, this time against recently Premier League relegated side Wolverhampton Wanderers.",
"The game started with Wednesday on the front foot and arguably should have had a penalty when Michail Antonio was fouled in the box.",
"However, later on in the first half Wolves got into the game and when they got a free-kick on the edge of the area and took it quickly, the ball just went wide of the post.",
"The referee decided he was not ready for the free-kick to be taken and booked Bakary Sako, and asked them to re-take the free-kick.",

"Wednesday had several very good chances to win the game, but Charlie Austin managed to grab his hat-trick, and the Owls could have been heading for their seven consecutive defeat, but Michail Antonio hit a magnificent twenty-five yard strike less than a minute later, and the game ended in a very entertaining 3–3 draw.",

"Wednesday kept plenty of the ball in the second half, but were unable to create any chances, with the only key chance of Miguel Llera's header going high over the bar.",

"Hoyte scored his second goal for Middlesbrough in nearly 150 appearances with a beautiful finish into the far corner of the net.",

"Barkley who had impressed while on loan at Wednesday made 13 appearances scoring 4 goals.",

"The second half started with Forestieri going close for Watford, and neither team could gain control in the game.",

"After the ball bounced around in the box it came to the edge of the box where Craig Conway's shot went into the back of the net.",

"The referee said Miguel Llera had pushed him, while Miguel Llera has since explained that he had not.",

"Then at the other end there was a fantastic chance for Charlton Athletic to take the lead, as ex-Owl Michael Morrison saw his diving header from just three-yards out hit the bar, with goalkeeper Chris Kirkland standing at the other end of the goal.",
"However, this chance could arguably have been a penalty as Michael Morrison was having his shirt clearly pulled by the opposing defender.",
"Another chance then fell to Wednesday as the goalkeeper Ben Hamer was unable to catch a long-ball forward by Lewis Buxton and it fell to Réda Johnson who near enough missed an open net.",
"Into the second half and a counter-attack from a Sheffield Wednesday corner saw a chance by Johnnie Jackson taken, and Charlton had broken the dead-lock to put the home side a goal up.",
"After this Wednesday pressurised for an equaliser, and Michail Antonio, Jermaine Johnson, and substitute debútant Leroy Lita all came close.",
"However, through Wednesday's chances, a rare attack for Charlton saw them go on and hit the post.",
"And while it all looked again that the Owls were not going to be able to score despite their chances, a cross from Lewis Buxton with six-minutes to go saw Réda Johnson's looping header go into the far corner of the net.",
"Even after the equaliser Sheffield Wednesday pushed for a possible winner.",
"Then with one-minute of normal time to go, Leroy Lita's shot took a large deflection and nestled into the other bottom corner.",
"Lita had scored on his debút and given the Owls a vital victory and took them six-points clear of the relegation zone, while also ending Charlton's run of three successive wins.",
"As the transfer deadline approached in January, it was confirmed that Barcelona B loanee Rodri was to return to his parent club by mutual consent after a largely unsuccessful spell at Sheffield Wednesday and failing to settle or adapt to the Championship.",
"Elsewhere, while it was largely believed that Jérémy Hélan had joined Watford on loan, talks between the two parties had broken down and Hélan did return to Sheffield Wednesday after all.",
"Transfer deadline day eventually came and with many moves happening across the globe, the day was fairly quiet for Sheffield Wednesday.",
"At 15:55 a departure was confirmed, as forward Chris O'Grady moved to Barnsley on loan until the rest of the season, after seemingly losing his place for the second half of the season.",
"With one forward departing, it was questioned over fans whether another would join the club before the end of the day.",
"Brighton & Hove Albion were the visitors at Hillsborough Stadium for the first game in February.",
"Brighton had only lost twice in their last sixteen games, but it was Wednesday who started the brighter of the two teams and got their reward after just five-minutes when a cross from Michail Antonio found loanee Leroy Lita whose effort hit the top corner of the goal to score his second goal in as many appearances for the club.",
"Brighton almost immediately hit back though when a free-kick found Brighton's new signing Leonardo Ulloa whose strike was smartly saved by Chris Kirkland.",
"After this Brighton & Hove Albion pushed for the equaliser, but a late and vicious challenge near the Brighton box by Ashley Barnes saw him see a straight red card, this putting the game back into Sheffield Wednesday's favour.",
"The resulting free-kick was taken by other new loanee Danny Pugh who managed to score from the tight angle to double the Owls' lead.",
"Into the second half and Leroy Lita came close before great work by Brighton substitute Craig Mackail-Smith, along with a poor clearance, saw a strike by Andrea Orlandi smash the back of the net to make the score 2–1.",
"However, just two-minutes later at the other end of the field, and a clever corner saw Michail Antonio manage to just tap home to give Wednesday their two-goal cushion back.",
"Then with fifteen-minutes to go a late challenge by Danny Pugh, which analysts believe the referee to have opted the right punishment of a yellow card, caused disagreements and a scuffle on the touchline between coaching staff of both clubs.",
"A Brighton coaching staff member was sent to the stands, along with Sheffield Wednesday manager Dave Jones.",
"The only notable chance before the game ended was from Giles Coke whose strike was comfortably saved, and the game finished with a thoroughly deserved and pleasing victory for Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The day before the home game against Derby County, and just after the emergency loan window had re-opened, it was confirmed that Sheffield Wednesday had signed another forward on loan.",
"This was to be England U21 international Connor Wickham from Sunderland.",
"It is rumoured that Wednesday had attempted to bring the player in earlier on in the season, but now Sunderland have brought an extra striker in during the transfer window, meaning it was now possible to sign him.",
"So nine-days into the second month of the year and Sheffield Wednesday faced Derby County at Hillsborough Stadium.",
"Derby started the brighter of the two-teams and got their reward after twenty-three minutes as neat passing play down the middle saw Jeff Hendrick through on goal and he slotted the ball comfortably pass Chris Kirkland and into the back of the net.",
"As things were not going well Connor Wickham was introduced with only just over half-an-hour gone to make his debut.",
"Michail Antonio come close with a long-range effort before the break, but it was Derby County who went into half-time a goal up.",
"Two-minutes into the second half and a mistake by a Derby defender saw Michail Antonio given a great opportunity to equalise, however he blasted the ball over the bar.",
"Then just one-minute later a high ball into the Wednesday box saw Miguel Llera foul ex-Sheffield United player Jamie Ward, who then stepped up and put Derby two goals up with a penalty.",
"Sheffield Wednesday then started to play as their form suggested and although Leroy Lita hit a volley over the bar, a corner saw Michail Antonio score from close range – although it was firstly thought that it was Leroy Lita.",
"Then just six-minutes later great work again by Michail Antonio saw him produce an excellent cross which Miguel Llera heading home and the scores were back level.",
"The game was fairly even for the rest of the match although Sheffield Wednesday did continue to create more chances.",
"Similarly to the first game of the season it finished 2–2, where Derby County were two-goals up in both matches, but Wednesday managed to come from behind to draw the game level on each occasion.",
"With Millwall playing Luton Town in the FA Cup, Sheffield Wednesday did not have a fixture on the weekend of 16 February.",
"With some teams in the league that are around the Owls playing, the club dropped down one place in the league to twentieth, two points above the relegation zone.",
"After no fixture for Sheffield Wednesday at the weekend, the Owls faced Birmingham City] away in the first mid-week league fixture of the year.",
"The game started lively with Marlon King having two opportunities for Birmingham, with one going wide and the other comfortably saved by Kirkland.",
"Birmingham continued to create some half chances, but the best chance of the game at this stage, fell to Wednesday as a corner met by Miguel Llera's head was absolutely brilliantly saved by Jack Butland to keep the scores level.",
"Into the second half and Connor Wickham volleyed wide on the turn, while at the other end a cross/shot from Chris Burke saw Nikola Žigić miss a near enough open net from four-yards out as Chris Kirkland dived the other way to save the Burke opportunity.",
"Marlon King tested the keeper again, while Žigić fired a header just wide.",
"At the other end and a free-kick from Wednesday saw Martin Taylor's header hit one of his own players to guide the ball just wide of the post.",
"The game ended in a goalless draw with Wednesday moving up another place in the league.",
"The second game of the week then came back at Hillsborough Stadium as Sheffield Wednesday faced Crystal Palace, one of several particularly tough fixtures coming up for the Owls.",
"Last time the two teams met it helped move the clubs their separate ways, with Crystal Palace being bottom and now fourth, and Sheffield Wednesday being second and now nineteenth.",
"The last time the two teams met at Hillsborough it was a relegation-'play-off' with either of the two teams possibly being relegated – it was however Sheffield Wednesday who ended up facing the drop that day.",
"The game kicked off with both sets of fans getting right behind the two teams and it was David Prutton's volley that was the first piece of action, with the ball firing just over the bar.",
"Leroy Lita then had a good header, which was comfortably saved, and left Leroy Lita believing he could have tested the keeper more.",
"The game went into the break goalless after Crystal Palace scaring the Wednesday goal on just a few occasions.",
"Into the second half and Giles Coke came close to scoring an own goal, while Kagisho Dikgacoi's long-range effort went just wide of the post.",
"Yannick Bolasie also went close for Palace, but as Sheffield Wednesday got more and more into the game, they finally got their hard works reward.",
"A usual fantastic cross from Michail Antonio found the head of Leroy Lita, with just nine-minutes to go.",
"Crystal Palace failed to threaten for the rest of the game and nearly went two-down, as good pressure by Madine saw Leroy Lita through on goal, but a good save by the opposing keeper preventing the scores from doubling.",
"The game finished 1–0, a great result for Sheffield Wednesday as they moved five-points clear of the relegation zone.",
"The Crystal Palace game was the last of February and the remaining five-days of the month saw a Milan Mandarić interview, around two-years after taking over the club, a fans' forum where general questions were asked by fans to manager Dave Jones and chairman Milan Mandarić.",
"It also saw, on 26 February, one year since the club beat Sheffield United at Hillsborough Stadium, where the club then saw Gary Megson sacked as manager and the long unbeaten run to promotion begin.",
"With ex-manager Gary Megson being sacked last year at the end of February, it meant manager Dave Jones' first anniversary of being appointed.",
"However, it was not a great anniversary 'off-the-field' as an exclusive article on the front page of the national newspaper The Sun talked about Dave Jones' personal life, and how he had been having an affair with a well-known netball player.",
"This out-break of news through the media came at unfortunate timing as it was a day before the televised clash with Nottingham Forest.",
"The fans just hoped that this news 'off-the-field' would not affect the performances 'on-the-field'.",
"So the late game the next day against Nottingham Forest kicked off live on Sky Sports.",
"The game started with quite a few good chances with Dexter Blackstock having a shot off-target for Nottingham Forest, while Connor Wickham's header also came close.",
"Forest captain Danny Collins then had his header go a whisker wide of the post, but looked like the player should have scored.",
"Nottingham Forest started to play some brilliant football, and went on to dominate the first half.",
"Dexter Blackstock had a goal disallowed for offside, and then Forest got their reward with some brilliant football and teamwork that saw Radosław Majewski slot the ball home into the almost empty net.",
"Nottingham Forest continued to dominate before half-time and Chris Kirkland was forced into making one fine save, before Simon Cox also went close.",
"Somehow the teams went into the break with Sheffield Wednesday only trailing by the one goal.",
"The second half was found to be more of an even contest, however Nottingham Forest continued to look comfortable on the ball and in defence, limiting Wednesday with just a few half-chances.",
"Leroy Lita's shot for example was comfortably saved and Michail Antonio's left-footed shot went just over the bar.",
"Radosław Majewski could have scored again for Forest at the other end of the pitch after fantastic play from a corner.",
"Leroy Lita had another header and shot stopped by the opposition defence, while in the last few minutes Michail Antonio had his long range effort excellently blocked by Blackstock.",
"The game finished in a loss for Sheffield Wednesday – their first for two-months, as they dropped to four-points adrift of the relegation zone.",
"One-day off exactly a year since Dave Jones took charge in his first full game at Sheffield Wednesday (the 4–1 win against Bury), the Owls faced an away game against third in the league Watford – who were inevitably in good form.",
"However, before this game the Sheffield Wednesday U-21 squad were due to play the Leeds United U-21 squad at Hillsborough, the game was confirmed to have been postponed at around 5 o'clock that afternoon in most extraordinary circumstances, as police had found an unexploded bomb just outside the ground.",
"At 19:45 later that evening Sheffield Wednesday did kick-off against Watford at Vicarage Road.",
"The first ten-minutes of the game started as the whole game was expected to be like, when looking at the league tables, with Watford having plenty of the ball and attacking Sheffield Wednesday consistently.",
"Troy Deeney had his shot go just wide of the post, before the best chance of the game at this point fell to Matěj Vydra whose effort hit the outside of the post.",
"Then, at the other end of the pitch, Jérémy Hélan's troublesome dribbling and pace saw him worry the defence into making a back pass, where Watford goalkeeper Jonathan Bond made a mistake, which led to Michail Antonio giving the Owls the lead, scoring from a tight angle.",
"After the goal Sheffield Wednesday were by far the better team and arguably should have been at least three or four goals up by half-time.",
"A great free-kick by Miguel Llera saw Jonathan Bond make a fabulous save right in the top corner of the goal, this save saw a header from Lewis Buxton just cleared-off the line by an opposition defender as Anthony Gardner tried to put the ball home as well.",
"However, replays show that Lewis Buxton's header en route to goal was handled by a Watford defender, trying to stop the ball from going into the net, and the ball that was then cleared off the line by another defender had actually crossed the line after all, therefore Sheffield Wednesday should have either been given a penalty and Watford down to ten-men, or Sheffield Wednesday should be two-goals up.",
"After this incident, superb play by Jérémy Hélan once more, saw his volley finely saved by the goalkeeper, and Kieran Lee's effort somehow go wide of the goal, with it looking easier for ball to put into the back of the net.",
"Wednesday went on to have a few half chances before the break, but so did Watford as Chris Kirkland made one fine save.",
"Half-time was called and although a good lead for Sheffield Wednesday, they really should have been leading by more.",
"The second half started like the first with Watford on top and a corner they had was flicked on at the near post and met by substitute Fernando Forestieri who tapped home the equaliser.",
"The Owls felt really hard done by, and Watford were now the team with the ascendancy and the home crowd right behind them.",
"Watford continued to pressurise and good work by Fernando Forestieri just outside the area saw his shot miss three or four players before somehow finding the back of the net.",
"Watford had turned the game on its head.",
"Both sides had reasonable half-chances before the end of the game, and although Sheffield Wednesday gave it everything for the equaliser they just could not get it.",
"The game finished in a 2–1 defeat and Watford moved up to second, while Sheffield Wednesday went just two-points adrift of the relegation zone, with more very tough games coming up – fifth placed Leicester City were next before heading back home to face top of the league Cardiff City.",
"So the second-game of the week saw the Owls travelling to play Leicester City.",
"Both teams started the game lively and it was Leicester who had the first opportunity of the game when a clever volley from David Nugent forced Chris Kirkland into making a good save.",
"Then at the other end of the pitch Michail Antonio managed to beat his man and send a fantastic cross over to the far post where Leroy Lita somehow managed to head the ball over the bar.",
"Ritchie De Laet managed to beat his man later on in the game and forced another great save from Kirkland when he powered a shot towards goal.",
"It remained goalless at half-time and Leicester had the first major opportunity in the second half when a cross in the box saw Harry Kane head over the bar, when the player seemingly should have at least got the header on target.",
"At the other end of pitch Lita sent a fine through-ball to Michail Antonio whose one-on-one effort was saved by Kasper Schmeichel.",
"As the game remained very even with equally as good chances falling to both teams it was with twenty-minutes to go when Lewis Buxton sent in a cross, Michail Antonio flicked on and a volley by loanee Connor Wickham gave Sheffield Wednesday a vital lead.",
"As the clock ticked on towards full-time a Leicester City corner saw Andy King's header hit the outside of the post and go wide.",
"Fortunately for the Owls it was the last piece of major action in the game and Sheffield Wednesday gained a vital victory on the road to safety.",
"Onto the weekend of 16 March, Sheffield Wednesday faced top of the league Cardiff City at home, this was the last game of the run where Wednesday faced five of the top six teams in the league, it was also the last game before the international break.",
"The first half only had very few minor incidents, with the only one note worthy of was when Leroy Lita looked like he could have been obstructed in the box and had claims for a penalty turned down.",
"As the game looked to go in as a goalless draw at the break, a corner by Cardiff was punched out by Kirkland and Don Cowie fired a shot towards goal that could not quite be stopped by David Prutton on the line, as the ball trickled into the net.",
"Cardiff City went luckily into the break a goal up.",
"The majority of the second half was similar to the first with only very few minor chances.",
"However, with twenty-minutes in, a free-kick from Cardiff saw Matthew Connolly score from a free-header, somehow giving Cardiff City a 0–2 lead.",
"After this Sheffield Wednesday had better chances to score as Miguel Llera had two free-kicks saved by the opposition keeper and Leroy Lita had a goal disallowed for offside, while also a shot cleared off line after Anthony Gardner's header could not find the net.",
"The game finished and it was not particularly the result that saddened the fans but the results elsewhere and the league table.",
"All the teams around Sheffield Wednesday (apart from Bristol City as they played Wolves) won, this being Millwall, Huddersfield Town, Barnsley, Peterborough United, Ipswich Town, Birmingham City, and Wolves.",
"This left Sheffield Wednesday just one-point and place above the relegation zone with two massive games coming up, against Barnsley and Bristol City.",
"As the 2-week international break was in progress, there was some very bad news for Sheffield Wednesday, as it was confirmed that the groin injury Michail Antonio had picked up against Cardiff City at the weekend, meant that Michail Antonio would be out for the rest of the season.",
"Michail Antonio is well in the lead as the club's top goalscorer and even further ahead with assists this season, as he has nine.",
"This very bad news came at probably the most pivotal point of the season for Sheffield Wednesday as with just over a month to go before the end of the season the club are just one point and place above the relegation zone, and games such as Barnsley, Bristol City, and Peterborough United all still to come.",
"The last few days before the end of March, and the Easter weekend relegation clashes against Barnsley and Bristol City, saw the end of the emergency loan window.",
"Having just lost two-key players of Michail Antonio and Connor Wickham, along with the possibility of Giles Coke being out for a longer amount of time, manager ave Jones made three loan signings over the last two-days of the emergency loan window.",
"Firstly, Hull City experienced midfielder Seyi Olofinjana was signed until the end-of-the-season, and then one of Bolton Wanderers' star men, Stuart Holden, signed for one-month having just come back from injury and looking for some game time.",
"Then just a few-minutes later it was confirmed forward Steve Howard had been signed for the rest of the season on loan from bottom of League One side Hartlepool United.",
"The signing of Howard was by far the strangest as the 36-year-old has been unable to even break into the Hartlepool side, who were bottom of the league below Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The Easter weekend came and the Owls faced local rivals and also a mighty relegation battle against Barnsley, who were in very good form.",
"It was seen as the biggest game of the season so far, with the crowd amounting to the highest attendance of the season so far at Hillsborough.",
"The game started with both teams fired-up and looking for the win.",
"Leroy Lita had an early goal correctly disallowed for offside, while the same then happened to Marlon Harewood at the other end, however he did not hit the target.",
"Lita then had a goal mouth scramble eventually cleared away by Barnsley.",
"Both teams had cancelled each other out in the first half and although they were both giving it their all in this clash, they both somehow needed to find more in order to try to get a winner.",
"Into the second half and substitute Reuben Noble-Lazarus had a long-distance shot very well saved by Chris Kirkland.",
"Another substitute by Barnsley, Jason Scotland, then had a chance as his shot was also well saved by Kirkland.",
"Then soon after at the other end of the pitch, good link up play between Jermaine Johnson and Lewis Buxton saw a cross into the box met by Gary Madine who tapped home a vital Sheffield Wednesday goal to give them the lead.",
"Madine then had several shots within a few-seconds saved and blocked when there was another goal-mouth scramble in the box.",
"Then with just over ten-minutes to go, plus stoppage time, a free-kick taken by Miguel Llera was launched into the box and Réda Johnson headed home to give Wednesday a fantastic two-goal lead.",
"With six-minutes to go the Owls were then wrongly given a penalty for handball.",
"Gary Madine stepped up but very poorly ended-up putting the ball wide.",
"Three-minutes later and Lewis Buxton failed to stay ten-yards away when Barnsley were given a free-kick just outside the area.",
"Buxton was shown a second yellow-card and was sent-off.",
"There was six-minutes added time and in the second Jacob Mellis volleyed a ball into the far-corner to give Barnsley a chance of gaining something from the game.",
"However, it was not to be and the game ended with a great chance for Barnsley just going wide, however the chance had been given as offside anyway.",
"Just two-days later and Sheffield Wednesday faced another massive game as they faced another relegation-contender as they played bottom-of-the-league Bristol City away at Ashton Gate.",
"The first chance of the game on Easter Monday came to Bristol City as a great ball into the box was just unable to meet Steve Davies' head.",
"Five changes were made by the Owls from the side that won against Barnsley, one of which was Steve Howard, who with ten minutes to go before half-time flicked on a ball which Jermaine Johnson just got to before the defender and found himself through on-goal, Jermaine Johnson cleverly went around the goalkeeper and passed the ball into the back of the net to give the Owls a vital lead.",
"After this Steve Davies also found himself through on goal at the other end for Bristol City, he hit the post but the chance had been waved for offside anyway.",
"The first major chance in the second half was created by Jermaine Johnson who dribbled in and out of several defender's and could not find either the net or Giles Coke at the far post.",
"With fifteen-minutes to go tempers flared as one of the Bristol City defender's dived in the box which made several of the Wednesday players furious, particularly Chris Kirkland, but the referee gave the right decision and the offender was shown a yellow card.",
"As time ticked on Bristol City pressed for an equaliser and thought their moment had gone when Albert Adomah volleyed well over the bar having expected to do a lot better.",
"However, as the game went into the second-minute of stoppage time a cross into the box was not caught as Chris Kirkland had planned as he was clattered by an opposition player, the ball landed perfectly for Sam Baldock to volley home for the game to finish 1–1.",
"4 points from two games was seen as pretty successful for Sheffield Wednesday, however their other relegation rivals continued to do even better, for example Wolves who were in the relegation-zone at the beginning of Monday, beat Birmingham (who had just beaten fourth-place Crystal Palace 0–4, away on Friday).",
"As the last full month of games began the league table saw second-to-bottom (twenty-third) on 45 points, then four teams above this were all on forty-seven (including Sheffield Wednesday).",
"Wolves were one point above this tally, while seventeenth-to-fifteenth were all on fifty points.",
"Peterborough United and Huddersfield Town, two of three teams below Sheffield Wednesday had not played on the Monday, and were due to play the following day.",
"On 6 April, Sheffield Wednesday faced another massive game as they played Blackburn Rovers at Hillsborough, with Blackburn being on the same number of points as Wednesday and as equally in danger of being relegated.",
"The game started very lively from both teams, as they both attacked from the early stages looking for the vital win.",
"The first major talking point was only twelve minutes into the game, as Chris Kirkland just beat Jordan Rhodes in the box chasing down a long-ball, however Kirkland only managed to pat it to the opposition player David Dunn, Dunn knocked it round the keeper who then just pulled him back slightly and a penalty was given.",
"Dunn had knocked the ball quite far and therefore only a yellow card was shown, and not a red due to it not being a definite goal scoring opportunity.",
"Jordan Rhodes, who scored four-goals at his one visit at this ground last season, stepped up and sent Chris Kirkland the wrong way to give Blackburn the lead.",
"Not ten minutes later however, and a stretched Blackburn players foot gave Jermaine Johnson the ball just outside the area, whose trickery went round one player and finished finely into the bottom far corner to bring the scores back level again.",
"Sheffield Wednesday were easily on top for the rest of the half after this goal, with Réda Johnson turning brilliantly but blasting over the bar, soon after though and Réda Johnson went over in the box after his shirt was being pulled, the referee decided in giving another penalty in this game.",
"Sheffield Wednesday had only scored one penalty and missed three so far this season, however the record was improved when Leroy Lita fired the penalty into the roof of the net.",
"Lita then had a chance to put the Owls two goals clear by the break but the opposition goalkeeper made a save.",
"Into the second half and Sheffield Wednesday could not get into their stride and Blackburn Rovers had large amounts of play but created very little, although Jordan Rhodes and David Jones did come close.",
"It was not until just under twenty-minutes to go when Blackburn Rovers got what they deserved.",
"A corner came back out to Colin Kazim-Richards, who whipped a ball into the box which was met by Scott Dann who headed home to put the scores back level again.",
"After this the game became more even and Sheffield Wednesday got their foot in the game again and when the on-form Jermaine Johnson got the ball at this feet, just six minutes after the Blackburn goal, he dribbled with his pace and unleashed a fiere shot from 25 yards into the far bottom corner to give Sheffield Wednesday another vital lead.",
"Jermaine Johnson then sent Jérémy Hélan through on goal before the end of the match, but Hélan could not finish the game off.",
"Sheffield Wednesday gained another vital and fantastic victory, and with results elsewhere going their way, they managed to climb three-points clear of the relegation-zone and putting Blackburn in it.",
"Sheffield Wednesday played Millwall just three days after the Blackburn game.",
"The Millwall game was the game that the Owls had in hand over the majority of the other teams in the league, and therefore was seen as probably the most important game of the season so far, as it could see Sheffield Wednesday go six points clear of the relegation-zone and up to fourteenth in the league – their highest point since early October.",
"Millwall, who themselves could still possibly get relegated, had the first chance after just two minutes, when several strong 50–50 challenges took place within just a few seconds around the middle of the field, eventually saw the ball go out wide where a Millwall player took on two players, crossed into the box and at the far-post Jimmy Abdou tapped into the empty net to give Millwall a crucial early lead.",
"It was the first chance of the game, a chance that was scored.",
"Soon after a bobble on the edge of the area saw Millwall and ex-Sheffield United player Rob Hulse through on goal but Kirkland prevented him from dribbling the ball around him.",
"Although Steve Howard had a shot well saved for Sheffield Wednesday, Millwall remained on top of the game with ex-Owl Mark Beevers coming close.",
"With five minutes to go until half-time Sheffield Wednesday were awarded a free-kick around thirty yards from goal which Miguel Llera stood up and curled the ball into the bottom corner to leave the scores level at half-time, although Wednesday will have been wondering how they had come in at the break on level terms at all.",
"The second half was much similar to the first with Millwall being on top, however the Owls defended much better this time around.",
"Millwall still created chances though, Jermaine Easter had two, one of which was a one-on-one that was well saved by Kirkland, and he then later made another great save as a corner lead to Sean St Ledger over-head kicking the ball towards the bottom corner of the net.",
"In-form Jermaine Johnson came on off the bench for the Owls and had a brilliant solo-run that ended with the ball just going inches wide from back of the net.",
"It was Sheffield Wednesday's one of very few chances, and Millwall continued to pressurise and a long-ball forward saw Danny Shittu and Chris Kirkland come together and the ball dropped to a Millwall player whose shot was cleared off the line by Miguel Llera, although the whistle had just been blown for a foul on Kirkland.",
"As the clocked ticked down and the game went into the second minute of stoppage time Sheffield Wednesday earned a corner that was whipped towards the near post and it was substitute Chris Maguire who volleyed the ball home from a tight angle to send players, staff and the Owls fans 'bananas'.",
"Somehow Sheffield Wednesday had managed to win the game, and it was a result and goal that would hopefully be looked back on at the end of the season as the game that kept Sheffield Wednesday up in the Championship.",
"Another massive game came just a few days later in an early kick-off against Yorkshire rivals Leeds United.",
"The last contest between the two teams saw a fierce game on and off the pitch, with the most significant moment being when a Leeds United fan ran on the pitch and pushed goalkeeper Chris Kirkland in the face.",
"The game at Elland Road saw Leeds's new manager Brian McDermott in charge for the first time, and it started with Rodolph Austin having quite a few attempts although they were all from long distance and went well-wide from the target.",
"Both teams were cancelling out each other well, and when the ball was punted up field and flicked on by Jérémy Hélan, Jermaine Johnson's pace beat the opposition defender to the ball, and hooked it over the on-rushing keeper to put Wednesday a goal up.",
"Into the beginning of the second half and Leeds started to take control of the game and Steve Morison had a brilliant chance when he went through on goal and when he was just about to pull the trigger Réda Johnson came in with a fantastic tackle to keep the Owls in the lead.",
"Soon after Sheffield Wednesday were constantly having to make great saves and throwing bodies on the line to prevent Leeds United from scoring, but eventually it was not enough.",
"After all that fantastic defending the equaliser came from a free-header by ex-Owl Luke Varney to put the scores deservedly level.",
"However, Leeds continued to be on top and just a few minutes later another cross by Ross McCormack met another free-header by Luke Varney who took it very well again and Leeds United were then in front.",
"After this however, Sheffield Wednesday were on top of the game as they pushed for the equaliser.",
"Steve Howard came ever so close when hitting the post, and Leroy Lita's header from just a few yards out somehow did not end up in the back of the net.",
"On another day Sheffield Wednesday would have got something from this game, but today was not the day and the derby finished Leeds United 2–1 Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The Owls were now in sixteenth, but just four points above the relegation-zone.",
"The third away game in succession came as Wednesday faced Blackpool on a pitch, after all the poor winter weather, had been described many of times as being a 'beach' rather than a football pitch.",
"As Dave Jones sat in the stand for his last game of the two-game touchline ban, Sheffield Wednesday started by far the strongest team and had two really good chances within just the first five minutes; Jermaine Johnson just nicked the ball off one of the opposition defender's but his shot was well saved by Matt Gilks, then another mistake lead to Giles Coke striking a fierce shot from 25-yards which forced an even better save out of Matt Gilks.",
"Thomas Ince went close at the other end of the pitch with a long-distance shot, and then a mistake – this time by Wednesday – led by another in quick succession due to the poor pitch condition, saw Ince through one-on-one, but Chris Kirkland pulled out a good save to turn the ball behind for a corner.",
"Into the second half and a corner by Blackpool saw one of their players have the best opportunity of the game when he hit the bar, this then led to a cross and a goal-mouth scramble which was eventually cleared away by the Owls.",
"Apart from this the second half only entertained some half-chances, but both keepers had to ensure they were on their guard.",
"The final whistle blew and it was seen as good point for Sheffield Wednesday as it was an extra point towards safety.",
"The last three o'clock kick-off of the season for Sheffield Wednesday was when the Owls faced Ipswich Town at Hillsborough Stadium, with points for either team being vital in securing Championship safety.",
"It was Ipswich who had the first chance of the game when a corner was whipped in and headed down at the far post to see Danny Pugh fortunately being able to clear off the line.",
"It was not too long into the game when the first goal did come, and it was poor defending by Sheffield Wednesday when a long throw-in was not headed clear by Miguel Llera, and Jay Tabb easily tapped the ball into the net.",
"Soon after the goal Chris Kirkland made a great save from a volley outside the box.",
"Wednesday's luck soon got worse though as a tactical substitution saw Kieran Lee replaced by Steve Howard, seeing Wednesday's main goal threat, Jermaine Johnson, go out on the wing.",
"Just three minutes later Jermaine Johnson pulled his hamstring and another sub had to be made, and if Jermaine Johnson had injured himself before the tactical substitution, then Steve Howard would most likely have just replaced him, however instead two subs had been made within half-an-hour, and another injury was added to the list, unfortunately it was Sheffield Wednesday's main goal threat.",
"The Owls did have a great opportunity when Steve Howard had a free header sail over the bar from a corner.",
"Before half-time though a goal-mouth scramble saw a Leroy Lita volley saved and then Anthony Gardner's shot cleared off the line by an opposing defender.",
"Ipswich went close with a shot just a few minutes into the second half, but Sheffield Wednesday continued to make chances of their own, such as when Miguel Llera had a great effort in the area well saved by the opposing goalkeeper.",
"Finally the well deserved equaliser did come, and it was good link up play between Chris Maguire and Lewis Buxton down wing that produced a cross that managed to make its way to the back post where Leroy Lita scored an unstoppable shot into the bottom corner.",
"Miguel Llera then soon had a free-header which he somehow failed to put into the back of the net and then when Jérémy Hélan's pace on the wing produced a cross, Leroy Lita headed home to send Hillsborough wild.",
"However, scenes soon died down as the goal was disallowed for offside.",
"The last main piece of action of the game came from another long-throw from Ipswich, which Kirkland failed to punch clear, it was flicked on with the ball heading towards the empty net but luckily Danny Pugh was there yet again to clear off the line.",
"It left the Owls four-points from safety, like several other teams, with just two games to go.",
"In arguably the biggest game of the season, Sheffield Wednesday travelled to face Peterborough United in a late kick-off in front of the live Sky Sports television camera's.",
"With some of the earlier results going Sheffield Wednesday's way the Owls only needed a point to secure Championship safety.",
"However, if the Owls lost it would mean they would be one point above the relegation zone with one game to go.",
"With Wednesday without both star men Michail Antonio and Jermaine Johnson, along with Peterborough having only lost once in eleven games, it was Peterborough who had the majority of possession in the first half.",
"The first chance also fell to Peterborough when Dwight Gayle's out-stretched foot managed to get a shot-off which was only half-saved by Chris Kirkland and the ball continued to roll towards the net, but Miguel Llera was there to clear it away before anybody could get an extra touch to it.",
"Danny Pugh made a great clearance after a cross, but then at the other end Giles Coke forced a good save out of the opposition goalkeeper to keep the scores level.",
"A free-kick for the Owls then saw a scramble in the box that fell sweetly for Jérémy Hélan to volley, but Peterborough were putting their bodies on the line to block the shot.",
"Soon the best chance of the game so far came when Sheffield Wednesday's corner was whipped to the far post and Anthony Gardner somehow headed wide when it was just a simple tap in.",
"That was the last main piece of action of the half and as things stood the Owls were safe.",
"Another half was still to be played though and when Gayle soon had a shot stopped by Miguel Llera the Peterborough players appealed for handball, however it was not given and replays showed it looked more like ball-to-hand.",
"As Peterborough continued to be on top Anthony Gardner failed to clear his lines and ended up conceding a free-kick 25-yards out.",
"Grant McCann stepped up and curled the ball around the wall and it hit the inside of the post...and went in.",
"Peterborough celebrated wildly as it could mean a lot in a weeks time when deciding who would get relegated.",
"As Wednesday went in search of an equaliser Peterborough still looked more likely to score as they attacked on the break.",
"And when a dangerous cross was sent in and contact at all by Dwight Gayle would have doubled the score, but fortunately for the Owls he did not.",
"As time ticked on Wednesday did not really threaten the Peterborough goal as they searched for the equaliser that would save their season.",
"Then a corner with just a few-minutes to go was whipped to the far-post and headed into the centre of the box where several Sheffield Wednesday players were and several Peterborough players attempted to clear off the line, Peterborough did clear the almighty goal mouth scramble and that was the last main piece of action of the game.",
"Peterborough United had pulled off their greatest victory of the season in the attempt to fight off the drop, but it meant Sheffield Wednesday were one-point clear with one game to go and a host of clubs could be relegated.",
"Millwall, who could also get relegated, played their game in hand against Crystal Palace mid-week which finished goalless.",
"So with one-game to go for all clubs, and with several of them still possible to finish 22nd and 23rd, therefore getting relegated (joining 24th Bristol City), the table looked as follows:",
"4 May 2013 fell to the last game of the Championship season, which turned out to be the biggest and most important game of the season for Sheffield Wednesday as by the end of the match at home to Middlesbrough it would be known whether Sheffield Wednesday had secured Championship safety or been relegated to League One.",
"In the biggest attendance of the season at Hillsborough the home players played to match the great atmosphere as they started brilliantly, with Jermaine Johnson firstly dribbling between several players before shooting well wide.",
"After the early first chance the Owls could not stop creating chances as soon after Seyi Olofinjana volleyed over the bar.",
"Wednesday's early attacking pressure soon paid off with just nine-minutes gone.",
"A fantastic long through ball by Miguel Llera saw Steve Howard turn his man and fire an unstoppable shot into the roof of the net, sending Hillsborough wild.",
"Middlesbrough's best chance of the half was a solo effort by Curtis Main but his shot went comfortably wide.",
"Sheffield Wednesday continued to pressurise the Middlesbrough defence though and good play by Owls' Player of the Year Lewis Buxton lead to Jermaine Johnson's distance shot just going wide.",
"As the half hour make just passed a corner whipped in by Lewis Buxton was poked into the net by Leroy Lita to double the Owls' advantage and to step them closer to the win that would secure survival.",
"Soon after the second-goal Jérémy Hélan won back the ball from the wide position and put in a clever ball towards Steve Howard to tap into the net, however Howard missed his kick and the ball deflected back off the goalkeeper back into his path, but this time his shot was somehow kept out by a magnificent goal line clearance.",
"Before the half-time whistle was blown Wednesday created another great chance, or at least Danny Pugh did.",
"Pugh took on two-players before firing a shot into the side netting.",
"It could have been at least three or four goals for Sheffield Wednesday by half-time and they should have scored the third early in the second half as a back pass by Middlesbrough went straight to Leroy Lita whose shot was saved well by the opposing goalkeeper.",
"The second half developed into a different game as neither team created many chances but Middlesbrough had the better of the play, a free header from a corner went over the bar and then Grant Leadbitter's long-distance shot went just wide of pulling a goal back for Middlesbrough.",
"Sheffield Wednesday did have the last main chance of the game though when Leroy Lita's header went just wide, but at first the outcome looked terrifying as Lita collided with another player leading to teammates from both teams urgently going to the attention of Lita and calling for the club doctors and physios immediately.",
"However, luckily Leroy Lita soon got up and although was subbed, walked off looking okay.",
"The final whistle eventually came at the end of five-minutes of stoppages, leading to a pitch invasion in celebration of Sheffield Wednesday confirming their place in next season's Football League Championship.",
"Elsewhere, Wolverhampton Wanderers joined Bristol City in next season's League One along with Peterborough United after a last-minute conceded goal saw them go down instead of Barnsley.",
"So far Doncaster Rovers and Bournemouth from League One, and Reading and Queens Park Rangers from the Premier League are confirmed be playing Championship football next season.",
"Players making their first team Sheffield Wednesday début in a fully competitive match.",
"Players scoring their first goal while playing their first game for Sheffield Wednesday in a competitive fixture."

"The referee decided he was not ready for the free-kick to be taken and booked Bakary Sako, and asked them to re-take the free-kick.",

"Wednesday kept plenty of the ball in the second half, but were unable to create any chances, with the only key chance of Miguel Llera's header going high over the bar.",

"The second half started with Forestieri going close for Watford, and neither team could gain control in the game.",

"With severe weather conditions of snow affecting the country with many postponed games, Sheffield Wednesday's home game against Wolverhampton Wanderers did manage to beat off the snow and continue.",
"Wednesday were sitting at the top of the form table coming into this game and the first half it was obviously why.",
"The Owls dominated the first half with Michail Antonio coming very close on several occasions, meanwhile Jermaine Johnson also came close on many occasions.",
"Kieran Lee was inches wide with a couple of chances, while Réda Johnson had his header stopped just on the line by the opposing goalkeeper.",
"Somehow though it remained goalless at the break.",
"Into the second half and Michail Antonio again had some wonderful chances which were not taken, and Jérémy Hélan also missed the back of net with two glorious opportunities.",
"The game finished and Wolves had somehow managed to hang on for the draw.",
"Although near the bottom of the table and points are grateful, with such dominance by Sheffield Wednesday throughout the game, it was seen as two points dropped rather than one point gained.",
"Another departure came in the last full week of January when it was announced that Chris Lines was to be going on loan to Milton Keynes Dons for the rest of the season.",
"The day before the Charlton Athletic game there was a total of four departures and arrivals at the club.",
"Firstly it was announced that youngster Caolan Lavery would be joining Southend United on loan until the end of the season, Lavery is yet to make his debút for Sheffield Wednesday, but has featured twice on the bench in the League Cup games against Fulham and Southampton.",
"Another youngster was then announced to go out on loan, as forward Matthew Fletcher joined Cambridge United for only a month.",
"Then the first arrival of the January transfer window for Wednesday was announced when Leroy Lita joined on loan until the end of the season from Swansea City.",
"It was a great relief to Sheffield Wednesday to finally get their hands on a proven goal scoring striker.",
"Wide-midfielder Danny Pugh then also joined on loan until the end of the season from fellow Championship side Leeds United.",
"Meanwhile, loanee's Mamady Sidibé and Jérémy Hélan went back to their respective clubs – although it was widely known that Dave Jones was trying to re-capture Hélan, but it was then confirmed that he had joined Watford on loan instead.",
"The game away to Charlton Athletic came as the last game of the first month of the year, and a debút was given to new-loanee Danny Pugh.",
"The clash started off fairly quietly and evenly, and the first key chance fell to Sheffield Wednesday, as Danny Pugh's corner found Anthony Gardner completely unmarked at the far post, and after a touch from Michail Antonio",
"the ball was cleared off the line.",
"Then at the other end there was a fantastic chance for Charlton Athletic to take the lead, as ex-Owl Michael Morrison saw his diving header from just three-yards out hit the bar, with goalkeeper Chris Kirkland standing at the other end of the goal.",
"However, this chance could arguably have been a penalty as Michael Morrison was having his shirt clearly pulled by the opposing defender.",
"Another chance then fell to Wednesday as the goalkeeper Ben Hamer was unable to catch a long-ball forward by Lewis Buxton and it fell to Réda Johnson who near enough missed an open net.",
"Into the second half and a counter-attack from a Sheffield Wednesday corner saw a chance by Johnnie Jackson taken, and Charlton had broken the dead-lock to put the home side a goal up.",
"After this Wednesday pressurised for an equaliser, and Michail Antonio, Jermaine Johnson, and substitute debútant Leroy Lita all came close.",
"However, through Wednesday's chances, a rare attack for Charlton saw them go on and hit the post.",
"And while it all looked again that the Owls were not going to be able to score despite their chances, a cross from Lewis Buxton with six-minutes to go saw Réda Johnson's looping header go into the far corner of the net.",
"Even after the equaliser Sheffield Wednesday pushed for a possible winner.",
"Then with one-minute of normal time to go, Leroy Lita's shot took a large deflection and nestled into the other bottom corner.",
"Lita had scored on his debút and given the Owls a vital victory and took them six-points clear of the relegation zone, while also ending Charlton's run of three successive wins.",
"As the transfer deadline approached in January, it was confirmed that Barcelona B loanee Rodri was to return to his parent club by mutual consent after a largely unsuccessful spell at Sheffield Wednesday and failing to settle or adapt to the Championship.",
"Elsewhere, while it was largely believed that Jérémy Hélan had joined Watford on loan, talks between the two parties had broken down and Hélan did return to Sheffield Wednesday after all.",
"Transfer deadline day eventually came and with many moves happening across the globe, the day was fairly quiet for Sheffield Wednesday.",
"At 15:55 a departure was confirmed, as forward Chris O'Grady moved to Barnsley on loan until the rest of the season, after seemingly losing his place for the second half of the season.",
"With one forward departing, it was questioned over fans whether another would join the club before the end of the day.",
"Brighton & Hove Albion were the visitors at Hillsborough Stadium for the first game in February.",
"Brighton had only lost twice in their last sixteen games, but it was Wednesday who started the brighter of the two teams and got their reward after just five-minutes when a cross from Michail Antonio found loanee Leroy Lita whose effort hit the top corner of the goal to score his second goal in as many appearances for the club.",
"Brighton almost immediately hit back though when a free-kick found Brighton's new signing Leonardo Ulloa whose strike was smartly saved by Chris Kirkland.",
"After this Brighton & Hove Albion pushed for the equaliser, but a late and vicious challenge near the Brighton box by Ashley Barnes saw him see a straight red card, this putting the game back into Sheffield Wednesday's favour.",
"The resulting free-kick was taken by other new loanee Danny Pugh who managed to score from the tight angle to double the Owls' lead.",
"Into the second half and Leroy Lita came close before great work by Brighton substitute Craig Mackail-Smith, along with a poor clearance, saw a strike by Andrea Orlandi smash the back of the net to make the score 2–1.",
"However, just two-minutes later at the other end of the field, and a clever corner saw Michail Antonio manage to just tap home to give Wednesday their two-goal cushion back.",
"Then with fifteen-minutes to go a late challenge by Danny Pugh, which analysts believe the referee to have opted the right punishment of a yellow card, caused disagreements and a scuffle on the touchline between coaching staff of both clubs.",
"A Brighton coaching staff member was sent to the stands, along with Sheffield Wednesday manager Dave Jones.",
"The only notable chance before the game ended was from Giles Coke whose strike was comfortably saved, and the game finished with a thoroughly deserved and pleasing victory for Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The day before the home game against Derby County, and just after the emergency loan window had re-opened, it was confirmed that Sheffield Wednesday had signed another forward on loan.",
"This was to be England U21 international Connor Wickham from Sunderland.",
"It is rumoured that Wednesday had attempted to bring the player in earlier on in the season, but now Sunderland have brought an extra striker in during the transfer window, meaning it was now possible to sign him.",
"So nine-days into the second month of the year and Sheffield Wednesday faced Derby County at Hillsborough Stadium.",
"Derby started the brighter of the two-teams and got their reward after twenty-three minutes as neat passing play down the middle saw Jeff Hendrick through on goal and he slotted the ball comfortably pass Chris Kirkland and into the back of the net.",
"As things were not going well Connor Wickham was introduced with only just over half-an-hour gone to make his debut.",
"Michail Antonio come close with a long-range effort before the break, but it was Derby County who went into half-time a goal up.",
"Two-minutes into the second half and a mistake by a Derby defender saw Michail Antonio given a great opportunity to equalise, however he blasted the ball over the bar.",
"Then just one-minute later a high ball into the Wednesday box saw Miguel Llera foul ex-Sheffield United player Jamie Ward, who then stepped up and put Derby two goals up with a penalty.",
"Sheffield Wednesday then started to play as their form suggested and although Leroy Lita hit a volley over the bar, a corner saw Michail Antonio score from close range – although it was firstly thought that it was Leroy Lita.",
"Then just six-minutes later great work again by Michail Antonio saw him produce an excellent cross which Miguel Llera heading home and the scores were back level.",
"The game was fairly even for the rest of the match although Sheffield Wednesday did continue to create more chances.",
"Similarly to the first game of the season it finished 2–2, where Derby County were two-goals up in both matches, but Wednesday managed to come from behind to draw the game level on each occasion.",
"With Millwall playing Luton Town in the FA Cup, Sheffield Wednesday did not have a fixture on the weekend of 16 February.",
"With some teams in the league that are around the Owls playing, the club dropped down one place in the league to twentieth, two points above the relegation zone.",
"After no fixture for Sheffield Wednesday at the weekend, the Owls faced Birmingham City] away in the first mid-week league fixture of the year.",
"The game started lively with Marlon King having two opportunities for Birmingham, with one going wide and the other comfortably saved by Kirkland.",
"Birmingham continued to create some half chances, but the best chance of the game at this stage, fell to Wednesday as a corner met by Miguel Llera's head was absolutely brilliantly saved by Jack Butland to keep the scores level.",
"Into the second half and Connor Wickham volleyed wide on the turn, while at the other end a cross/shot from Chris Burke saw Nikola Žigić miss a near enough open net from four-yards out as Chris Kirkland dived the other way to save the Burke opportunity.",
"Marlon King tested the keeper again, while Žigić fired a header just wide.",
"At the other end and a free-kick from Wednesday saw Martin Taylor's header hit one of his own players to guide the ball just wide of the post.",
"The game ended in a goalless draw with Wednesday moving up another place in the league.",
"The second game of the week then came back at Hillsborough Stadium as Sheffield Wednesday faced Crystal Palace, one of several particularly tough fixtures coming up for the Owls.",
"Last time the two teams met it helped move the clubs their separate ways, with Crystal Palace being bottom and now fourth, and Sheffield Wednesday being second and now nineteenth.",
"The last time the two teams met at Hillsborough it was a relegation-'play-off' with either of the two teams possibly being relegated – it was however Sheffield Wednesday who ended up facing the drop that day.",
"The game kicked off with both sets of fans getting right behind the two teams and it was David Prutton's volley that was the first piece of action, with the ball firing just over the bar.",
"Leroy Lita then had a good header, which was comfortably saved, and left Leroy Lita believing he could have tested the keeper more.",
"The game went into the break goalless after Crystal Palace scaring the Wednesday goal on just a few occasions.",
"Into the second half and Giles Coke came close to scoring an own goal, while Kagisho Dikgacoi's long-range effort went just wide of the post.",
"Yannick Bolasie also went close for Palace, but as Sheffield Wednesday got more and more into the game, they finally got their hard works reward.",
"A usual fantastic cross from Michail Antonio found the head of Leroy Lita, with just nine-minutes to go.",
"Crystal Palace failed to threaten for the rest of the game and nearly went two-down, as good pressure by Madine saw Leroy Lita through on goal, but a good save by the opposing keeper preventing the scores from doubling.",
"The game finished 1–0, a great result for Sheffield Wednesday as they moved five-points clear of the relegation zone.",
"The Crystal Palace game was the last of February and the remaining five-days of the month saw a Milan Mandarić interview, around two-years after taking over the club, a fans' forum where general questions were asked by fans to manager Dave Jones and chairman Milan Mandarić.",
"It also saw, on 26 February, one year since the club beat Sheffield United at Hillsborough Stadium, where the club then saw Gary Megson sacked as manager and the long unbeaten run to promotion begin.",
"With ex-manager Gary Megson being sacked last year at the end of February, it meant manager Dave Jones' first anniversary of being appointed.",
"However, it was not a great anniversary 'off-the-field' as an exclusive article on the front page of the national newspaper The Sun talked about Dave Jones' personal life, and how he had been having an affair with a well-known netball player.",
"This out-break of news through the media came at unfortunate timing as it was a day before the televised clash with Nottingham Forest.",
"The fans just hoped that this news 'off-the-field' would not affect the performances 'on-the-field'.",
"So the late game the next day against Nottingham Forest kicked off live on Sky Sports.",
"The game started with quite a few good chances with Dexter Blackstock having a shot off-target for Nottingham Forest, while Connor Wickham's header also came close.",
"Forest captain Danny Collins then had his header go a whisker wide of the post, but looked like the player should have scored.",
"Nottingham Forest started to play some brilliant football, and went on to dominate the first half.",
"Dexter Blackstock had a goal disallowed for offside, and then Forest got their reward with some brilliant football and teamwork that saw Radosław Majewski slot the ball home into the almost empty net.",
"Nottingham Forest continued to dominate before half-time and Chris Kirkland was forced into making one fine save, before Simon Cox also went close.",
"Somehow the teams went into the break with Sheffield Wednesday only trailing by the one goal.",
"The second half was found to be more of an even contest, however Nottingham Forest continued to look comfortable on the ball and in defence, limiting Wednesday with just a few half-chances.",
"Leroy Lita's shot for example was comfortably saved and Michail Antonio's left-footed shot went just over the bar.",
"Radosław Majewski could have scored again for Forest at the other end of the pitch after fantastic play from a corner.",
"Leroy Lita had another header and shot stopped by the opposition defence, while in the last few minutes Michail Antonio had his long range effort excellently blocked by Blackstock.",
"The game finished in a loss for Sheffield Wednesday – their first for two-months, as they dropped to four-points adrift of the relegation zone.",
"One-day off exactly a year since Dave Jones took charge in his first full game at Sheffield Wednesday (the 4–1 win against Bury), the Owls faced an away game against third in the league Watford – who were inevitably in good form.",
"However, before this game the Sheffield Wednesday U-21 squad were due to play the Leeds United U-21 squad at Hillsborough, the game was confirmed to have been postponed at around 5 o'clock that afternoon in most extraordinary circumstances, as police had found an unexploded bomb just outside the ground.",
"At 19:45 later that evening Sheffield Wednesday did kick-off against Watford at Vicarage Road.",
"The first ten-minutes of the game started as the whole game was expected to be like, when looking at the league tables, with Watford having plenty of the ball and attacking Sheffield Wednesday consistently.",
"Troy Deeney had his shot go just wide of the post, before the best chance of the game at this point fell to Matěj Vydra whose effort hit the outside of the post.",
"Then, at the other end of the pitch, Jérémy Hélan's troublesome dribbling and pace saw him worry the defence into making a back pass, where Watford goalkeeper Jonathan Bond made a mistake, which led to Michail Antonio giving the Owls the lead, scoring from a tight angle.",
"After the goal Sheffield Wednesday were by far the better team and arguably should have been at least three or four goals up by half-time.",
"A great free-kick by Miguel Llera saw Jonathan Bond make a fabulous save right in the top corner of the goal, this save saw a header from Lewis Buxton just cleared-off the line by an opposition defender as Anthony Gardner tried to put the ball home as well.",
"However, replays show that Lewis Buxton's header en route to goal was handled by a Watford defender, trying to stop the ball from going into the net, and the ball that was then cleared off the line by another defender had actually crossed the line after all, therefore Sheffield Wednesday should have either been given a penalty and Watford down to ten-men, or Sheffield Wednesday should be two-goals up.",
"After this incident, superb play by Jérémy Hélan once more, saw his volley finely saved by the goalkeeper, and Kieran Lee's effort somehow go wide of the goal, with it looking easier for ball to put into the back of the net.",
"Wednesday went on to have a few half chances before the break, but so did Watford as Chris Kirkland made one fine save.",
"Half-time was called and although a good lead for Sheffield Wednesday, they really should have been leading by more.",
"The second half started like the first with Watford on top and a corner they had was flicked on at the near post and met by substitute Fernando Forestieri who tapped home the equaliser.",
"The Owls felt really hard done by, and Watford were now the team with the ascendancy and the home crowd right behind them.",
"Watford continued to pressurise and good work by Fernando Forestieri just outside the area saw his shot miss three or four players before somehow finding the back of the net.",
"Watford had turned the game on its head.",
"Both sides had reasonable half-chances before the end of the game, and although Sheffield Wednesday gave it everything for the equaliser they just could not get it.",
"The game finished in a 2–1 defeat and Watford moved up to second, while Sheffield Wednesday went just two-points adrift of the relegation zone, with more very tough games coming up – fifth placed Leicester City were next before heading back home to face top of the league Cardiff City.",
"So the second-game of the week saw the Owls travelling to play Leicester City.",
"Both teams started the game lively and it was Leicester who had the first opportunity of the game when a clever volley from David Nugent forced Chris Kirkland into making a good save.",
"Then at the other end of the pitch Michail Antonio managed to beat his man and send a fantastic cross over to the far post where Leroy Lita somehow managed to head the ball over the bar.",
"Ritchie De Laet managed to beat his man later on in the game and forced another great save from Kirkland when he powered a shot towards goal.",
"It remained goalless at half-time and Leicester had the first major opportunity in the second half when a cross in the box saw Harry Kane head over the bar, when the player seemingly should have at least got the header on target.",
"At the other end of pitch Lita sent a fine through-ball to Michail Antonio whose one-on-one effort was saved by Kasper Schmeichel.",
"As the game remained very even with equally as good chances falling to both teams it was with twenty-minutes to go when Lewis Buxton sent in a cross, Michail Antonio flicked on and a volley by loanee Connor Wickham gave Sheffield Wednesday a vital lead.",
"As the clock ticked on towards full-time a Leicester City corner saw Andy King's header hit the outside of the post and go wide.",
"Fortunately for the Owls it was the last piece of major action in the game and Sheffield Wednesday gained a vital victory on the road to safety.",
"Onto the weekend of 16 March, Sheffield Wednesday faced top of the league Cardiff City at home, this was the last game of the run where Wednesday faced five of the top six teams in the league, it was also the last game before the international break.",
"The first half only had very few minor incidents, with the only one note worthy of was when Leroy Lita looked like he could have been obstructed in the box and had claims for a penalty turned down.",
"As the game looked to go in as a goalless draw at the break, a corner by Cardiff was punched out by Kirkland and Don Cowie fired a shot towards goal that could not quite be stopped by David Prutton on the line, as the ball trickled into the net.",
"Cardiff City went luckily into the break a goal up.",
"The majority of the second half was similar to the first with only very few minor chances.",
"However, with twenty-minutes in, a free-kick from Cardiff saw Matthew Connolly score from a free-header, somehow giving Cardiff City a 0–2 lead.",
"After this Sheffield Wednesday had better chances to score as Miguel Llera had two free-kicks saved by the opposition keeper and Leroy Lita had a goal disallowed for offside, while also a shot cleared off line after Anthony Gardner's header could not find the net.",
"The game finished and it was not particularly the result that saddened the fans but the results elsewhere and the league table.",
"All the teams around Sheffield Wednesday (apart from Bristol City as they played Wolves) won, this being Millwall, Huddersfield Town, Barnsley, Peterborough United, Ipswich Town, Birmingham City, and Wolves.",
"This left Sheffield Wednesday just one-point and place above the relegation zone with two massive games coming up, against Barnsley and Bristol City.",
"As the 2-week international break was in progress, there was some very bad news for Sheffield Wednesday, as it was confirmed that the groin injury Michail Antonio had picked up against Cardiff City at the weekend, meant that Michail Antonio would be out for the rest of the season.",
"Michail Antonio is well in the lead as the club's top goalscorer and even further ahead with assists this season, as he has nine.",
"This very bad news came at probably the most pivotal point of the season for Sheffield Wednesday as with just over a month to go before the end of the season the club are just one point and place above the relegation zone, and games such as Barnsley, Bristol City, and Peterborough United all still to come.",
"The last few days before the end of March, and the Easter weekend relegation clashes against Barnsley and Bristol City, saw the end of the emergency loan window.",
"Having just lost two-key players of Michail Antonio and Connor Wickham, along with the possibility of Giles Coke being out for a longer amount of time, manager ave Jones made three loan signings over the last two-days of the emergency loan window.",
"Firstly, Hull City experienced midfielder Seyi Olofinjana was signed until the end-of-the-season, and then one of Bolton Wanderers' star men, Stuart Holden, signed for one-month having just come back from injury and looking for some game time.",
"Then just a few-minutes later it was confirmed forward Steve Howard had been signed for the rest of the season on loan from bottom of League One side Hartlepool United.",
"The signing of Howard was by far the strangest as the 36-year-old has been unable to even break into the Hartlepool side, who were bottom of the league below Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The Easter weekend came and the Owls faced local rivals and also a mighty relegation battle against Barnsley, who were in very good form.",
"It was seen as the biggest game of the season so far, with the crowd amounting to the highest attendance of the season so far at Hillsborough.",
"The game started with both teams fired-up and looking for the win.",
"Leroy Lita had an early goal correctly disallowed for offside, while the same then happened to Marlon Harewood at the other end, however he did not hit the target.",
"Lita then had a goal mouth scramble eventually cleared away by Barnsley.",
"Both teams had cancelled each other out in the first half and although they were both giving it their all in this clash, they both somehow needed to find more in order to try to get a winner.",
"Into the second half and substitute Reuben Noble-Lazarus had a long-distance shot very well saved by Chris Kirkland.",
"Another substitute by Barnsley, Jason Scotland, then had a chance as his shot was also well saved by Kirkland.",
"Then soon after at the other end of the pitch, good link up play between Jermaine Johnson and Lewis Buxton saw a cross into the box met by Gary Madine who tapped home a vital Sheffield Wednesday goal to give them the lead.",
"Madine then had several shots within a few-seconds saved and blocked when there was another goal-mouth scramble in the box.",
"Then with just over ten-minutes to go, plus stoppage time, a free-kick taken by Miguel Llera was launched into the box and Réda Johnson headed home to give Wednesday a fantastic two-goal lead.",
"With six-minutes to go the Owls were then wrongly given a penalty for handball.",
"Gary Madine stepped up but very poorly ended-up putting the ball wide.",
"Three-minutes later and Lewis Buxton failed to stay ten-yards away when Barnsley were given a free-kick just outside the area.",
"Buxton was shown a second yellow-card and was sent-off.",
"There was six-minutes added time and in the second Jacob Mellis volleyed a ball into the far-corner to give Barnsley a chance of gaining something from the game.",
"However, it was not to be and the game ended with a great chance for Barnsley just going wide, however the chance had been given as offside anyway.",
"Just two-days later and Sheffield Wednesday faced another massive game as they faced another relegation-contender as they played bottom-of-the-league Bristol City away at Ashton Gate.",
"The first chance of the game on Easter Monday came to Bristol City as a great ball into the box was just unable to meet Steve Davies' head.",
"Five changes were made by the Owls from the side that won against Barnsley, one of which was Steve Howard, who with ten minutes to go before half-time flicked on a ball which Jermaine Johnson just got to before the defender and found himself through on-goal, Jermaine Johnson cleverly went around the goalkeeper and passed the ball into the back of the net to give the Owls a vital lead.",
"After this Steve Davies also found himself through on goal at the other end for Bristol City, he hit the post but the chance had been waved for offside anyway.",
"The first major chance in the second half was created by Jermaine Johnson who dribbled in and out of several defender's and could not find either the net or Giles Coke at the far post.",
"With fifteen-minutes to go tempers flared as one of the Bristol City defender's dived in the box which made several of the Wednesday players furious, particularly Chris Kirkland, but the referee gave the right decision and the offender was shown a yellow card.",
"As time ticked on Bristol City pressed for an equaliser and thought their moment had gone when Albert Adomah volleyed well over the bar having expected to do a lot better.",
"However, as the game went into the second-minute of stoppage time a cross into the box was not caught as Chris Kirkland had planned as he was clattered by an opposition player, the ball landed perfectly for Sam Baldock to volley home for the game to finish 1–1.",
"4 points from two games was seen as pretty successful for Sheffield Wednesday, however their other relegation rivals continued to do even better, for example Wolves who were in the relegation-zone at the beginning of Monday, beat Birmingham (who had just beaten fourth-place Crystal Palace 0–4, away on Friday).",
"As the last full month of games began the league table saw second-to-bottom (twenty-third) on 45 points, then four teams above this were all on forty-seven (including Sheffield Wednesday).",
"Wolves were one point above this tally, while seventeenth-to-fifteenth were all on fifty points.",
"Peterborough United and Huddersfield Town, two of three teams below Sheffield Wednesday had not played on the Monday, and were due to play the following day.",
"On 6 April, Sheffield Wednesday faced another massive game as they played Blackburn Rovers at Hillsborough, with Blackburn being on the same number of points as Wednesday and as equally in danger of being relegated.",
"The game started very lively from both teams, as they both attacked from the early stages looking for the vital win.",
"The first major talking point was only twelve minutes into the game, as Chris Kirkland just beat Jordan Rhodes in the box chasing down a long-ball, however Kirkland only managed to pat it to the opposition player David Dunn, Dunn knocked it round the keeper who then just pulled him back slightly and a penalty was given.",
"Dunn had knocked the ball quite far and therefore only a yellow card was shown, and not a red due to it not being a definite goal scoring opportunity.",
"Jordan Rhodes, who scored four-goals at his one visit at this ground last season, stepped up and sent Chris Kirkland the wrong way to give Blackburn the lead.",
"Not ten minutes later however, and a stretched Blackburn players foot gave Jermaine Johnson the ball just outside the area, whose trickery went round one player and finished finely into the bottom far corner to bring the scores back level again.",
"Sheffield Wednesday were easily on top for the rest of the half after this goal, with Réda Johnson turning brilliantly but blasting over the bar, soon after though and Réda Johnson went over in the box after his shirt was being pulled, the referee decided in giving another penalty in this game.",
"Sheffield Wednesday had only scored one penalty and missed three so far this season, however the record was improved when Leroy Lita fired the penalty into the roof of the net.",
"Lita then had a chance to put the Owls two goals clear by the break but the opposition goalkeeper made a save.",
"Into the second half and Sheffield Wednesday could not get into their stride and Blackburn Rovers had large amounts of play but created very little, although Jordan Rhodes and David Jones did come close.",
"It was not until just under twenty-minutes to go when Blackburn Rovers got what they deserved.",
"A corner came back out to Colin Kazim-Richards, who whipped a ball into the box which was met by Scott Dann who headed home to put the scores back level again.",
"After this the game became more even and Sheffield Wednesday got their foot in the game again and when the on-form Jermaine Johnson got the ball at this feet, just six minutes after the Blackburn goal, he dribbled with his pace and unleashed a fiere shot from 25 yards into the far bottom corner to give Sheffield Wednesday another vital lead.",
"Jermaine Johnson then sent Jérémy Hélan through on goal before the end of the match, but Hélan could not finish the game off.",
"Sheffield Wednesday gained another vital and fantastic victory, and with results elsewhere going their way, they managed to climb three-points clear of the relegation-zone and putting Blackburn in it.",
"Sheffield Wednesday played Millwall just three days after the Blackburn game.",
"The Millwall game was the game that the Owls had in hand over the majority of the other teams in the league, and therefore was seen as probably the most important game of the season so far, as it could see Sheffield Wednesday go six points clear of the relegation-zone and up to fourteenth in the league – their highest point since early October.",
"Millwall, who themselves could still possibly get relegated, had the first chance after just two minutes, when several strong 50–50 challenges took place within just a few seconds around the middle of the field, eventually saw the ball go out wide where a Millwall player took on two players, crossed into the box and at the far-post Jimmy Abdou tapped into the empty net to give Millwall a crucial early lead.",
"It was the first chance of the game, a chance that was scored.",
"Soon after a bobble on the edge of the area saw Millwall and ex-Sheffield United player Rob Hulse through on goal but Kirkland prevented him from dribbling the ball around him.",
"Although Steve Howard had a shot well saved for Sheffield Wednesday, Millwall remained on top of the game with ex-Owl Mark Beevers coming close.",
"With five minutes to go until half-time Sheffield Wednesday were awarded a free-kick around thirty yards from goal which Miguel Llera stood up and curled the ball into the bottom corner to leave the scores level at half-time, although Wednesday will have been wondering how they had come in at the break on level terms at all.",
"The second half was much similar to the first with Millwall being on top, however the Owls defended much better this time around.",
"Millwall still created chances though, Jermaine Easter had two, one of which was a one-on-one that was well saved by Kirkland, and he then later made another great save as a corner lead to Sean St Ledger over-head kicking the ball towards the bottom corner of the net.",
"In-form Jermaine Johnson came on off the bench for the Owls and had a brilliant solo-run that ended with the ball just going inches wide from back of the net.",
"It was Sheffield Wednesday's one of very few chances, and Millwall continued to pressurise and a long-ball forward saw Danny Shittu and Chris Kirkland come together and the ball dropped to a Millwall player whose shot was cleared off the line by Miguel Llera, although the whistle had just been blown for a foul on Kirkland.",
"As the clocked ticked down and the game went into the second minute of stoppage time Sheffield Wednesday earned a corner that was whipped towards the near post and it was substitute Chris Maguire who volleyed the ball home from a tight angle to send players, staff and the Owls fans 'bananas'.",
"Somehow Sheffield Wednesday had managed to win the game, and it was a result and goal that would hopefully be looked back on at the end of the season as the game that kept Sheffield Wednesday up in the Championship.",
"Another massive game came just a few days later in an early kick-off against Yorkshire rivals Leeds United.",
"The last contest between the two teams saw a fierce game on and off the pitch, with the most significant moment being when a Leeds United fan ran on the pitch and pushed goalkeeper Chris Kirkland in the face.",
"The game at Elland Road saw Leeds's new manager Brian McDermott in charge for the first time, and it started with Rodolph Austin having quite a few attempts although they were all from long distance and went well-wide from the target.",
"Both teams were cancelling out each other well, and when the ball was punted up field and flicked on by Jérémy Hélan, Jermaine Johnson's pace beat the opposition defender to the ball, and hooked it over the on-rushing keeper to put Wednesday a goal up.",
"Into the beginning of the second half and Leeds started to take control of the game and Steve Morison had a brilliant chance when he went through on goal and when he was just about to pull the trigger Réda Johnson came in with a fantastic tackle to keep the Owls in the lead.",
"Soon after Sheffield Wednesday were constantly having to make great saves and throwing bodies on the line to prevent Leeds United from scoring, but eventually it was not enough.",
"After all that fantastic defending the equaliser came from a free-header by ex-Owl Luke Varney to put the scores deservedly level.",
"However, Leeds continued to be on top and just a few minutes later another cross by Ross McCormack met another free-header by Luke Varney who took it very well again and Leeds United were then in front.",
"After this however, Sheffield Wednesday were on top of the game as they pushed for the equaliser.",
"Steve Howard came ever so close when hitting the post, and Leroy Lita's header from just a few yards out somehow did not end up in the back of the net.",
"On another day Sheffield Wednesday would have got something from this game, but today was not the day and the derby finished Leeds United 2–1 Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The Owls were now in sixteenth, but just four points above the relegation-zone.",
"The third away game in succession came as Wednesday faced Blackpool on a pitch, after all the poor winter weather, had been described many of times as being a 'beach' rather than a football pitch.",
"As Dave Jones sat in the stand for his last game of the two-game touchline ban, Sheffield Wednesday started by far the strongest team and had two really good chances within just the first five minutes; Jermaine Johnson just nicked the ball off one of the opposition defender's but his shot was well saved by Matt Gilks, then another mistake lead to Giles Coke striking a fierce shot from 25-yards which forced an even better save out of Matt Gilks.",
"Thomas Ince went close at the other end of the pitch with a long-distance shot, and then a mistake – this time by Wednesday – led by another in quick succession due to the poor pitch condition, saw Ince through one-on-one, but Chris Kirkland pulled out a good save to turn the ball behind for a corner.",
"Into the second half and a corner by Blackpool saw one of their players have the best opportunity of the game when he hit the bar, this then led to a cross and a goal-mouth scramble which was eventually cleared away by the Owls.",
"Apart from this the second half only entertained some half-chances, but both keepers had to ensure they were on their guard.",
"The final whistle blew and it was seen as good point for Sheffield Wednesday as it was an extra point towards safety.",
"The last three o'clock kick-off of the season for Sheffield Wednesday was when the Owls faced Ipswich Town at Hillsborough Stadium, with points for either team being vital in securing Championship safety.",
"It was Ipswich who had the first chance of the game when a corner was whipped in and headed down at the far post to see Danny Pugh fortunately being able to clear off the line.",
"It was not too long into the game when the first goal did come, and it was poor defending by Sheffield Wednesday when a long throw-in was not headed clear by Miguel Llera, and Jay Tabb easily tapped the ball into the net.",
"Soon after the goal Chris Kirkland made a great save from a volley outside the box.",
"Wednesday's luck soon got worse though as a tactical substitution saw Kieran Lee replaced by Steve Howard, seeing Wednesday's main goal threat, Jermaine Johnson, go out on the wing.",
"Just three minutes later Jermaine Johnson pulled his hamstring and another sub had to be made, and if Jermaine Johnson had injured himself before the tactical substitution, then Steve Howard would most likely have just replaced him, however instead two subs had been made within half-an-hour, and another injury was added to the list, unfortunately it was Sheffield Wednesday's main goal threat.",
"The Owls did have a great opportunity when Steve Howard had a free header sail over the bar from a corner.",
"Before half-time though a goal-mouth scramble saw a Leroy Lita volley saved and then Anthony Gardner's shot cleared off the line by an opposing defender.",
"Ipswich went close with a shot just a few minutes into the second half, but Sheffield Wednesday continued to make chances of their own, such as when Miguel Llera had a great effort in the area well saved by the opposing goalkeeper.",
"Finally the well deserved equaliser did come, and it was good link up play between Chris Maguire and Lewis Buxton down wing that produced a cross that managed to make its way to the back post where Leroy Lita scored an unstoppable shot into the bottom corner.",
"Miguel Llera then soon had a free-header which he somehow failed to put into the back of the net and then when Jérémy Hélan's pace on the wing produced a cross, Leroy Lita headed home to send Hillsborough wild.",
"However, scenes soon died down as the goal was disallowed for offside.",
"The last main piece of action of the game came from another long-throw from Ipswich, which Kirkland failed to punch clear, it was flicked on with the ball heading towards the empty net but luckily Danny Pugh was there yet again to clear off the line.",
"It left the Owls four-points from safety, like several other teams, with just two games to go.",
"In arguably the biggest game of the season, Sheffield Wednesday travelled to face Peterborough United in a late kick-off in front of the live Sky Sports television camera's.",
"With some of the earlier results going Sheffield Wednesday's way the Owls only needed a point to secure Championship safety.",
"However, if the Owls lost it would mean they would be one point above the relegation zone with one game to go.",
"With Wednesday without both star men Michail Antonio and Jermaine Johnson, along with Peterborough having only lost once in eleven games, it was Peterborough who had the majority of possession in the first half.",
"The first chance also fell to Peterborough when Dwight Gayle's out-stretched foot managed to get a shot-off which was only half-saved by Chris Kirkland and the ball continued to roll towards the net, but Miguel Llera was there to clear it away before anybody could get an extra touch to it.",
"Danny Pugh made a great clearance after a cross, but then at the other end Giles Coke forced a good save out of the opposition goalkeeper to keep the scores level.",
"A free-kick for the Owls then saw a scramble in the box that fell sweetly for Jérémy Hélan to volley, but Peterborough were putting their bodies on the line to block the shot.",
"Soon the best chance of the game so far came when Sheffield Wednesday's corner was whipped to the far post and Anthony Gardner somehow headed wide when it was just a simple tap in.",
"That was the last main piece of action of the half and as things stood the Owls were safe.",
"Another half was still to be played though and when Gayle soon had a shot stopped by Miguel Llera the Peterborough players appealed for handball, however it was not given and replays showed it looked more like ball-to-hand.",
"As Peterborough continued to be on top Anthony Gardner failed to clear his lines and ended up conceding a free-kick 25-yards out.",
"Grant McCann stepped up and curled the ball around the wall and it hit the inside of the post...and went in.",
"Peterborough celebrated wildly as it could mean a lot in a weeks time when deciding who would get relegated.",
"As Wednesday went in search of an equaliser Peterborough still looked more likely to score as they attacked on the break.",
"And when a dangerous cross was sent in and contact at all by Dwight Gayle would have doubled the score, but fortunately for the Owls he did not.",
"As time ticked on Wednesday did not really threaten the Peterborough goal as they searched for the equaliser that would save their season.",
"Then a corner with just a few-minutes to go was whipped to the far-post and headed into the centre of the box where several Sheffield Wednesday players were and several Peterborough players attempted to clear off the line, Peterborough did clear the almighty goal mouth scramble and that was the last main piece of action of the game.",
"Peterborough United had pulled off their greatest victory of the season in the attempt to fight off the drop, but it meant Sheffield Wednesday were one-point clear with one game to go and a host of clubs could be relegated.",
"Millwall, who could also get relegated, played their game in hand against Crystal Palace mid-week which finished goalless.",
"So with one-game to go for all clubs, and with several of them still possible to finish 22nd and 23rd, therefore getting relegated (joining 24th Bristol City), the table looked as follows:",
"4 May 2013 fell to the last game of the Championship season, which turned out to be the biggest and most important game of the season for Sheffield Wednesday as by the end of the match at home to Middlesbrough it would be known whether Sheffield Wednesday had secured Championship safety or been relegated to League One.",
"In the biggest attendance of the season at Hillsborough the home players played to match the great atmosphere as they started brilliantly, with Jermaine Johnson firstly dribbling between several players before shooting well wide.",
"After the early first chance the Owls could not stop creating chances as soon after Seyi Olofinjana volleyed over the bar.",
"Wednesday's early attacking pressure soon paid off with just nine-minutes gone.",
"A fantastic long through ball by Miguel Llera saw Steve Howard turn his man and fire an unstoppable shot into the roof of the net, sending Hillsborough wild.",
"Middlesbrough's best chance of the half was a solo effort by Curtis Main but his shot went comfortably wide.",
"Sheffield Wednesday continued to pressurise the Middlesbrough defence though and good play by Owls' Player of the Year Lewis Buxton lead to Jermaine Johnson's distance shot just going wide.",
"As the half hour make just passed a corner whipped in by Lewis Buxton was poked into the net by Leroy Lita to double the Owls' advantage and to step them closer to the win that would secure survival.",
"Soon after the second-goal Jérémy Hélan won back the ball from the wide position and put in a clever ball towards Steve Howard to tap into the net, however Howard missed his kick and the ball deflected back off the goalkeeper back into his path, but this time his shot was somehow kept out by a magnificent goal line clearance.",
"Before the half-time whistle was blown Wednesday created another great chance, or at least Danny Pugh did.",
"Pugh took on two-players before firing a shot into the side netting.",
"It could have been at least three or four goals for Sheffield Wednesday by half-time and they should have scored the third early in the second half as a back pass by Middlesbrough went straight to Leroy Lita whose shot was saved well by the opposing goalkeeper.",
"The second half developed into a different game as neither team created many chances but Middlesbrough had the better of the play, a free header from a corner went over the bar and then Grant Leadbitter's long-distance shot went just wide of pulling a goal back for Middlesbrough.",
"Sheffield Wednesday did have the last main chance of the game though when Leroy Lita's header went just wide, but at first the outcome looked terrifying as Lita collided with another player leading to teammates from both teams urgently going to the attention of Lita and calling for the club doctors and physios immediately.",
"However, luckily Leroy Lita soon got up and although was subbed, walked off looking okay.",
"The final whistle eventually came at the end of five-minutes of stoppages, leading to a pitch invasion in celebration of Sheffield Wednesday confirming their place in next season's Football League Championship.",
"Elsewhere, Wolverhampton Wanderers joined Bristol City in next season's League One along with Peterborough United after a last-minute conceded goal saw them go down instead of Barnsley.",
"So far Doncaster Rovers and Bournemouth from League One, and Reading and Queens Park Rangers from the Premier League are confirmed be playing Championship football next season.",
"Players making their first team Sheffield Wednesday début in a fully competitive match.",
"Players scoring their first goal while playing their first game for Sheffield Wednesday in a competitive fixture."

"Wednesday kept plenty of the ball in the second half, but were unable to create any chances, with the only key chance of Miguel Llera's header going high over the bar.",

"The second half started with Forestieri going close for Watford, and neither team could gain control in the game.",
"Watford did push on however, and after the assistant referee made a poor decision by giving Watford a soft free-kick, the ball was floated into the box and a free-header by Alexandre Geijo found its way into the net.",

"After the ball bounced around in the box it came to the edge of the box where Craig Conway's shot went into the back of the net.",

"The referee said Miguel Llera had pushed him, while Miguel Llera has since explained that he had not.",

"And although both sides created hardly any chances, it was a foul in the box by Lewis Buxton that gave MK Dons a penalty.",
"Shaun Williams dispatched the ball into the net to give the home side the lead.",
"Seconds later MK Dons should have had another penalty, but it was not given, after Martin Taylor appeared to foul his man in the box.",
"Paul Corry and Nejc Pečnik came close, but the Owls trailed at half-time by a goal to nil.",
"The second half started much more lively, but chances for both sides were still rare.",
"Danny Mayor tested the opposition goalkeeper before the second goal of the match came.",
"With fifteen-minutes to go a free-kick by Dean Bowditch, aiming for players in the box, managed to miss everyone and find its way into the net.",
"Ex-Owl Ryan Lowe had a chance to score a third before the full-time whistle, but it was nt to be.",
"Sheffield Wednesday were knocked out of the 2012–13 FA Cup at the Round 3 Replay stage, being knocked out by lower league opposition.",
"Although, with the many changes the focus was always on the league, with the cup just being a distraction.",
"On 17 January the second departure of the January transfer window was Daniel Jones.",
"The defender made eleven appearances this season, while overall making sixty-two appearances since joining in the summer of 2010.",
"With severe weather conditions of snow affecting the country with many postponed games, Sheffield Wednesday's home game against Wolverhampton Wanderers did manage to beat off the snow and continue.",
"Wednesday were sitting at the top of the form table coming into this game and the first half it was obviously why.",
"The Owls dominated the first half with Michail Antonio coming very close on several occasions, meanwhile Jermaine Johnson also came close on many occasions.",
"Kieran Lee was inches wide with a couple of chances, while Réda Johnson had his header stopped just on the line by the opposing goalkeeper.",
"Somehow though it remained goalless at the break.",
"Into the second half and Michail Antonio again had some wonderful chances which were not taken, and Jérémy Hélan also missed the back of net with two glorious opportunities.",
"The game finished and Wolves had somehow managed to hang on for the draw.",
"Although near the bottom of the table and points are grateful, with such dominance by Sheffield Wednesday throughout the game, it was seen as two points dropped rather than one point gained.",
"Another departure came in the last full week of January when it was announced that Chris Lines was to be going on loan to Milton Keynes Dons for the rest of the season.",
"The day before the Charlton Athletic game there was a total of four departures and arrivals at the club.",
"Firstly it was announced that youngster Caolan Lavery would be joining Southend United on loan until the end of the season, Lavery is yet to make his debút for Sheffield Wednesday, but has featured twice on the bench in the League Cup games against Fulham and Southampton.",
"Another youngster was then announced to go out on loan, as forward Matthew Fletcher joined Cambridge United for only a month.",
"Then the first arrival of the January transfer window for Wednesday was announced when Leroy Lita joined on loan until the end of the season from Swansea City.",
"It was a great relief to Sheffield Wednesday to finally get their hands on a proven goal scoring striker.",
"Wide-midfielder Danny Pugh then also joined on loan until the end of the season from fellow Championship side Leeds United.",
"Meanwhile, loanee's Mamady Sidibé and Jérémy Hélan went back to their respective clubs – although it was widely known that Dave Jones was trying to re-capture Hélan, but it was then confirmed that he had joined Watford on loan instead.",
"The game away to Charlton Athletic came as the last game of the first month of the year, and a debút was given to new-loanee Danny Pugh.",
"The clash started off fairly quietly and evenly, and the first key chance fell to Sheffield Wednesday, as Danny Pugh's corner found Anthony Gardner completely unmarked at the far post, and after a touch from Michail Antonio",
"the ball was cleared off the line.",
"Then at the other end there was a fantastic chance for Charlton Athletic to take the lead, as ex-Owl Michael Morrison saw his diving header from just three-yards out hit the bar, with goalkeeper Chris Kirkland standing at the other end of the goal.",
"However, this chance could arguably have been a penalty as Michael Morrison was having his shirt clearly pulled by the opposing defender.",
"Another chance then fell to Wednesday as the goalkeeper Ben Hamer was unable to catch a long-ball forward by Lewis Buxton and it fell to Réda Johnson who near enough missed an open net.",
"Into the second half and a counter-attack from a Sheffield Wednesday corner saw a chance by Johnnie Jackson taken, and Charlton had broken the dead-lock to put the home side a goal up.",
"After this Wednesday pressurised for an equaliser, and Michail Antonio, Jermaine Johnson, and substitute debútant Leroy Lita all came close.",
"However, through Wednesday's chances, a rare attack for Charlton saw them go on and hit the post.",
"And while it all looked again that the Owls were not going to be able to score despite their chances, a cross from Lewis Buxton with six-minutes to go saw Réda Johnson's looping header go into the far corner of the net.",
"Even after the equaliser Sheffield Wednesday pushed for a possible winner.",
"Then with one-minute of normal time to go, Leroy Lita's shot took a large deflection and nestled into the other bottom corner.",
"Lita had scored on his debút and given the Owls a vital victory and took them six-points clear of the relegation zone, while also ending Charlton's run of three successive wins.",
"As the transfer deadline approached in January, it was confirmed that Barcelona B loanee Rodri was to return to his parent club by mutual consent after a largely unsuccessful spell at Sheffield Wednesday and failing to settle or adapt to the Championship.",
"Elsewhere, while it was largely believed that Jérémy Hélan had joined Watford on loan, talks between the two parties had broken down and Hélan did return to Sheffield Wednesday after all.",
"Transfer deadline day eventually came and with many moves happening across the globe, the day was fairly quiet for Sheffield Wednesday.",
"At 15:55 a departure was confirmed, as forward Chris O'Grady moved to Barnsley on loan until the rest of the season, after seemingly losing his place for the second half of the season.",
"With one forward departing, it was questioned over fans whether another would join the club before the end of the day.",
"Brighton & Hove Albion were the visitors at Hillsborough Stadium for the first game in February.",
"Brighton had only lost twice in their last sixteen games, but it was Wednesday who started the brighter of the two teams and got their reward after just five-minutes when a cross from Michail Antonio found loanee Leroy Lita whose effort hit the top corner of the goal to score his second goal in as many appearances for the club.",
"Brighton almost immediately hit back though when a free-kick found Brighton's new signing Leonardo Ulloa whose strike was smartly saved by Chris Kirkland.",
"After this Brighton & Hove Albion pushed for the equaliser, but a late and vicious challenge near the Brighton box by Ashley Barnes saw him see a straight red card, this putting the game back into Sheffield Wednesday's favour.",
"The resulting free-kick was taken by other new loanee Danny Pugh who managed to score from the tight angle to double the Owls' lead.",
"Into the second half and Leroy Lita came close before great work by Brighton substitute Craig Mackail-Smith, along with a poor clearance, saw a strike by Andrea Orlandi smash the back of the net to make the score 2–1.",
"However, just two-minutes later at the other end of the field, and a clever corner saw Michail Antonio manage to just tap home to give Wednesday their two-goal cushion back.",
"Then with fifteen-minutes to go a late challenge by Danny Pugh, which analysts believe the referee to have opted the right punishment of a yellow card, caused disagreements and a scuffle on the touchline between coaching staff of both clubs.",
"A Brighton coaching staff member was sent to the stands, along with Sheffield Wednesday manager Dave Jones.",
"The only notable chance before the game ended was from Giles Coke whose strike was comfortably saved, and the game finished with a thoroughly deserved and pleasing victory for Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The day before the home game against Derby County, and just after the emergency loan window had re-opened, it was confirmed that Sheffield Wednesday had signed another forward on loan.",
"This was to be England U21 international Connor Wickham from Sunderland.",
"It is rumoured that Wednesday had attempted to bring the player in earlier on in the season, but now Sunderland have brought an extra striker in during the transfer window, meaning it was now possible to sign him.",
"So nine-days into the second month of the year and Sheffield Wednesday faced Derby County at Hillsborough Stadium.",
"Derby started the brighter of the two-teams and got their reward after twenty-three minutes as neat passing play down the middle saw Jeff Hendrick through on goal and he slotted the ball comfortably pass Chris Kirkland and into the back of the net.",
"As things were not going well Connor Wickham was introduced with only just over half-an-hour gone to make his debut.",
"Michail Antonio come close with a long-range effort before the break, but it was Derby County who went into half-time a goal up.",
"Two-minutes into the second half and a mistake by a Derby defender saw Michail Antonio given a great opportunity to equalise, however he blasted the ball over the bar.",
"Then just one-minute later a high ball into the Wednesday box saw Miguel Llera foul ex-Sheffield United player Jamie Ward, who then stepped up and put Derby two goals up with a penalty.",
"Sheffield Wednesday then started to play as their form suggested and although Leroy Lita hit a volley over the bar, a corner saw Michail Antonio score from close range – although it was firstly thought that it was Leroy Lita.",
"Then just six-minutes later great work again by Michail Antonio saw him produce an excellent cross which Miguel Llera heading home and the scores were back level.",
"The game was fairly even for the rest of the match although Sheffield Wednesday did continue to create more chances.",
"Similarly to the first game of the season it finished 2–2, where Derby County were two-goals up in both matches, but Wednesday managed to come from behind to draw the game level on each occasion.",
"With Millwall playing Luton Town in the FA Cup, Sheffield Wednesday did not have a fixture on the weekend of 16 February.",
"With some teams in the league that are around the Owls playing, the club dropped down one place in the league to twentieth, two points above the relegation zone.",
"After no fixture for Sheffield Wednesday at the weekend, the Owls faced Birmingham City] away in the first mid-week league fixture of the year.",
"The game started lively with Marlon King having two opportunities for Birmingham, with one going wide and the other comfortably saved by Kirkland.",
"Birmingham continued to create some half chances, but the best chance of the game at this stage, fell to Wednesday as a corner met by Miguel Llera's head was absolutely brilliantly saved by Jack Butland to keep the scores level.",
"Into the second half and Connor Wickham volleyed wide on the turn, while at the other end a cross/shot from Chris Burke saw Nikola Žigić miss a near enough open net from four-yards out as Chris Kirkland dived the other way to save the Burke opportunity.",
"Marlon King tested the keeper again, while Žigić fired a header just wide.",
"At the other end and a free-kick from Wednesday saw Martin Taylor's header hit one of his own players to guide the ball just wide of the post.",
"The game ended in a goalless draw with Wednesday moving up another place in the league.",
"The second game of the week then came back at Hillsborough Stadium as Sheffield Wednesday faced Crystal Palace, one of several particularly tough fixtures coming up for the Owls.",
"Last time the two teams met it helped move the clubs their separate ways, with Crystal Palace being bottom and now fourth, and Sheffield Wednesday being second and now nineteenth.",
"The last time the two teams met at Hillsborough it was a relegation-'play-off' with either of the two teams possibly being relegated – it was however Sheffield Wednesday who ended up facing the drop that day.",
"The game kicked off with both sets of fans getting right behind the two teams and it was David Prutton's volley that was the first piece of action, with the ball firing just over the bar.",
"Leroy Lita then had a good header, which was comfortably saved, and left Leroy Lita believing he could have tested the keeper more.",
"The game went into the break goalless after Crystal Palace scaring the Wednesday goal on just a few occasions.",
"Into the second half and Giles Coke came close to scoring an own goal, while Kagisho Dikgacoi's long-range effort went just wide of the post.",
"Yannick Bolasie also went close for Palace, but as Sheffield Wednesday got more and more into the game, they finally got their hard works reward.",
"A usual fantastic cross from Michail Antonio found the head of Leroy Lita, with just nine-minutes to go.",
"Crystal Palace failed to threaten for the rest of the game and nearly went two-down, as good pressure by Madine saw Leroy Lita through on goal, but a good save by the opposing keeper preventing the scores from doubling.",
"The game finished 1–0, a great result for Sheffield Wednesday as they moved five-points clear of the relegation zone.",
"The Crystal Palace game was the last of February and the remaining five-days of the month saw a Milan Mandarić interview, around two-years after taking over the club, a fans' forum where general questions were asked by fans to manager Dave Jones and chairman Milan Mandarić.",
"It also saw, on 26 February, one year since the club beat Sheffield United at Hillsborough Stadium, where the club then saw Gary Megson sacked as manager and the long unbeaten run to promotion begin.",
"With ex-manager Gary Megson being sacked last year at the end of February, it meant manager Dave Jones' first anniversary of being appointed.",
"However, it was not a great anniversary 'off-the-field' as an exclusive article on the front page of the national newspaper The Sun talked about Dave Jones' personal life, and how he had been having an affair with a well-known netball player.",
"This out-break of news through the media came at unfortunate timing as it was a day before the televised clash with Nottingham Forest.",
"The fans just hoped that this news 'off-the-field' would not affect the performances 'on-the-field'.",
"So the late game the next day against Nottingham Forest kicked off live on Sky Sports.",
"The game started with quite a few good chances with Dexter Blackstock having a shot off-target for Nottingham Forest, while Connor Wickham's header also came close.",
"Forest captain Danny Collins then had his header go a whisker wide of the post, but looked like the player should have scored.",
"Nottingham Forest started to play some brilliant football, and went on to dominate the first half.",
"Dexter Blackstock had a goal disallowed for offside, and then Forest got their reward with some brilliant football and teamwork that saw Radosław Majewski slot the ball home into the almost empty net.",
"Nottingham Forest continued to dominate before half-time and Chris Kirkland was forced into making one fine save, before Simon Cox also went close.",
"Somehow the teams went into the break with Sheffield Wednesday only trailing by the one goal.",
"The second half was found to be more of an even contest, however Nottingham Forest continued to look comfortable on the ball and in defence, limiting Wednesday with just a few half-chances.",
"Leroy Lita's shot for example was comfortably saved and Michail Antonio's left-footed shot went just over the bar.",
"Radosław Majewski could have scored again for Forest at the other end of the pitch after fantastic play from a corner.",
"Leroy Lita had another header and shot stopped by the opposition defence, while in the last few minutes Michail Antonio had his long range effort excellently blocked by Blackstock.",
"The game finished in a loss for Sheffield Wednesday – their first for two-months, as they dropped to four-points adrift of the relegation zone.",
"One-day off exactly a year since Dave Jones took charge in his first full game at Sheffield Wednesday (the 4–1 win against Bury), the Owls faced an away game against third in the league Watford – who were inevitably in good form.",
"However, before this game the Sheffield Wednesday U-21 squad were due to play the Leeds United U-21 squad at Hillsborough, the game was confirmed to have been postponed at around 5 o'clock that afternoon in most extraordinary circumstances, as police had found an unexploded bomb just outside the ground.",
"At 19:45 later that evening Sheffield Wednesday did kick-off against Watford at Vicarage Road.",
"The first ten-minutes of the game started as the whole game was expected to be like, when looking at the league tables, with Watford having plenty of the ball and attacking Sheffield Wednesday consistently.",
"Troy Deeney had his shot go just wide of the post, before the best chance of the game at this point fell to Matěj Vydra whose effort hit the outside of the post.",
"Then, at the other end of the pitch, Jérémy Hélan's troublesome dribbling and pace saw him worry the defence into making a back pass, where Watford goalkeeper Jonathan Bond made a mistake, which led to Michail Antonio giving the Owls the lead, scoring from a tight angle.",
"After the goal Sheffield Wednesday were by far the better team and arguably should have been at least three or four goals up by half-time.",
"A great free-kick by Miguel Llera saw Jonathan Bond make a fabulous save right in the top corner of the goal, this save saw a header from Lewis Buxton just cleared-off the line by an opposition defender as Anthony Gardner tried to put the ball home as well.",
"However, replays show that Lewis Buxton's header en route to goal was handled by a Watford defender, trying to stop the ball from going into the net, and the ball that was then cleared off the line by another defender had actually crossed the line after all, therefore Sheffield Wednesday should have either been given a penalty and Watford down to ten-men, or Sheffield Wednesday should be two-goals up.",
"After this incident, superb play by Jérémy Hélan once more, saw his volley finely saved by the goalkeeper, and Kieran Lee's effort somehow go wide of the goal, with it looking easier for ball to put into the back of the net.",
"Wednesday went on to have a few half chances before the break, but so did Watford as Chris Kirkland made one fine save.",
"Half-time was called and although a good lead for Sheffield Wednesday, they really should have been leading by more.",
"The second half started like the first with Watford on top and a corner they had was flicked on at the near post and met by substitute Fernando Forestieri who tapped home the equaliser.",
"The Owls felt really hard done by, and Watford were now the team with the ascendancy and the home crowd right behind them.",
"Watford continued to pressurise and good work by Fernando Forestieri just outside the area saw his shot miss three or four players before somehow finding the back of the net.",
"Watford had turned the game on its head.",
"Both sides had reasonable half-chances before the end of the game, and although Sheffield Wednesday gave it everything for the equaliser they just could not get it.",
"The game finished in a 2–1 defeat and Watford moved up to second, while Sheffield Wednesday went just two-points adrift of the relegation zone, with more very tough games coming up – fifth placed Leicester City were next before heading back home to face top of the league Cardiff City.",
"So the second-game of the week saw the Owls travelling to play Leicester City.",
"Both teams started the game lively and it was Leicester who had the first opportunity of the game when a clever volley from David Nugent forced Chris Kirkland into making a good save.",
"Then at the other end of the pitch Michail Antonio managed to beat his man and send a fantastic cross over to the far post where Leroy Lita somehow managed to head the ball over the bar.",
"Ritchie De Laet managed to beat his man later on in the game and forced another great save from Kirkland when he powered a shot towards goal.",
"It remained goalless at half-time and Leicester had the first major opportunity in the second half when a cross in the box saw Harry Kane head over the bar, when the player seemingly should have at least got the header on target.",
"At the other end of pitch Lita sent a fine through-ball to Michail Antonio whose one-on-one effort was saved by Kasper Schmeichel.",
"As the game remained very even with equally as good chances falling to both teams it was with twenty-minutes to go when Lewis Buxton sent in a cross, Michail Antonio flicked on and a volley by loanee Connor Wickham gave Sheffield Wednesday a vital lead.",
"As the clock ticked on towards full-time a Leicester City corner saw Andy King's header hit the outside of the post and go wide.",
"Fortunately for the Owls it was the last piece of major action in the game and Sheffield Wednesday gained a vital victory on the road to safety.",
"Onto the weekend of 16 March, Sheffield Wednesday faced top of the league Cardiff City at home, this was the last game of the run where Wednesday faced five of the top six teams in the league, it was also the last game before the international break.",
"The first half only had very few minor incidents, with the only one note worthy of was when Leroy Lita looked like he could have been obstructed in the box and had claims for a penalty turned down.",
"As the game looked to go in as a goalless draw at the break, a corner by Cardiff was punched out by Kirkland and Don Cowie fired a shot towards goal that could not quite be stopped by David Prutton on the line, as the ball trickled into the net.",
"Cardiff City went luckily into the break a goal up.",
"The majority of the second half was similar to the first with only very few minor chances.",
"However, with twenty-minutes in, a free-kick from Cardiff saw Matthew Connolly score from a free-header, somehow giving Cardiff City a 0–2 lead.",
"After this Sheffield Wednesday had better chances to score as Miguel Llera had two free-kicks saved by the opposition keeper and Leroy Lita had a goal disallowed for offside, while also a shot cleared off line after Anthony Gardner's header could not find the net.",
"The game finished and it was not particularly the result that saddened the fans but the results elsewhere and the league table.",
"All the teams around Sheffield Wednesday (apart from Bristol City as they played Wolves) won, this being Millwall, Huddersfield Town, Barnsley, Peterborough United, Ipswich Town, Birmingham City, and Wolves.",
"This left Sheffield Wednesday just one-point and place above the relegation zone with two massive games coming up, against Barnsley and Bristol City.",
"As the 2-week international break was in progress, there was some very bad news for Sheffield Wednesday, as it was confirmed that the groin injury Michail Antonio had picked up against Cardiff City at the weekend, meant that Michail Antonio would be out for the rest of the season.",
"Michail Antonio is well in the lead as the club's top goalscorer and even further ahead with assists this season, as he has nine.",
"This very bad news came at probably the most pivotal point of the season for Sheffield Wednesday as with just over a month to go before the end of the season the club are just one point and place above the relegation zone, and games such as Barnsley, Bristol City, and Peterborough United all still to come.",
"The last few days before the end of March, and the Easter weekend relegation clashes against Barnsley and Bristol City, saw the end of the emergency loan window.",
"Having just lost two-key players of Michail Antonio and Connor Wickham, along with the possibility of Giles Coke being out for a longer amount of time, manager ave Jones made three loan signings over the last two-days of the emergency loan window.",
"Firstly, Hull City experienced midfielder Seyi Olofinjana was signed until the end-of-the-season, and then one of Bolton Wanderers' star men, Stuart Holden, signed for one-month having just come back from injury and looking for some game time.",
"Then just a few-minutes later it was confirmed forward Steve Howard had been signed for the rest of the season on loan from bottom of League One side Hartlepool United.",
"The signing of Howard was by far the strangest as the 36-year-old has been unable to even break into the Hartlepool side, who were bottom of the league below Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The Easter weekend came and the Owls faced local rivals and also a mighty relegation battle against Barnsley, who were in very good form.",
"It was seen as the biggest game of the season so far, with the crowd amounting to the highest attendance of the season so far at Hillsborough.",
"The game started with both teams fired-up and looking for the win.",
"Leroy Lita had an early goal correctly disallowed for offside, while the same then happened to Marlon Harewood at the other end, however he did not hit the target.",
"Lita then had a goal mouth scramble eventually cleared away by Barnsley.",
"Both teams had cancelled each other out in the first half and although they were both giving it their all in this clash, they both somehow needed to find more in order to try to get a winner.",
"Into the second half and substitute Reuben Noble-Lazarus had a long-distance shot very well saved by Chris Kirkland.",
"Another substitute by Barnsley, Jason Scotland, then had a chance as his shot was also well saved by Kirkland.",
"Then soon after at the other end of the pitch, good link up play between Jermaine Johnson and Lewis Buxton saw a cross into the box met by Gary Madine who tapped home a vital Sheffield Wednesday goal to give them the lead.",
"Madine then had several shots within a few-seconds saved and blocked when there was another goal-mouth scramble in the box.",
"Then with just over ten-minutes to go, plus stoppage time, a free-kick taken by Miguel Llera was launched into the box and Réda Johnson headed home to give Wednesday a fantastic two-goal lead.",
"With six-minutes to go the Owls were then wrongly given a penalty for handball.",
"Gary Madine stepped up but very poorly ended-up putting the ball wide.",
"Three-minutes later and Lewis Buxton failed to stay ten-yards away when Barnsley were given a free-kick just outside the area.",
"Buxton was shown a second yellow-card and was sent-off.",
"There was six-minutes added time and in the second Jacob Mellis volleyed a ball into the far-corner to give Barnsley a chance of gaining something from the game.",
"However, it was not to be and the game ended with a great chance for Barnsley just going wide, however the chance had been given as offside anyway.",
"Just two-days later and Sheffield Wednesday faced another massive game as they faced another relegation-contender as they played bottom-of-the-league Bristol City away at Ashton Gate.",
"The first chance of the game on Easter Monday came to Bristol City as a great ball into the box was just unable to meet Steve Davies' head.",
"Five changes were made by the Owls from the side that won against Barnsley, one of which was Steve Howard, who with ten minutes to go before half-time flicked on a ball which Jermaine Johnson just got to before the defender and found himself through on-goal, Jermaine Johnson cleverly went around the goalkeeper and passed the ball into the back of the net to give the Owls a vital lead.",
"After this Steve Davies also found himself through on goal at the other end for Bristol City, he hit the post but the chance had been waved for offside anyway.",
"The first major chance in the second half was created by Jermaine Johnson who dribbled in and out of several defender's and could not find either the net or Giles Coke at the far post.",
"With fifteen-minutes to go tempers flared as one of the Bristol City defender's dived in the box which made several of the Wednesday players furious, particularly Chris Kirkland, but the referee gave the right decision and the offender was shown a yellow card.",
"As time ticked on Bristol City pressed for an equaliser and thought their moment had gone when Albert Adomah volleyed well over the bar having expected to do a lot better.",
"However, as the game went into the second-minute of stoppage time a cross into the box was not caught as Chris Kirkland had planned as he was clattered by an opposition player, the ball landed perfectly for Sam Baldock to volley home for the game to finish 1–1.",
"4 points from two games was seen as pretty successful for Sheffield Wednesday, however their other relegation rivals continued to do even better, for example Wolves who were in the relegation-zone at the beginning of Monday, beat Birmingham (who had just beaten fourth-place Crystal Palace 0–4, away on Friday).",
"As the last full month of games began the league table saw second-to-bottom (twenty-third) on 45 points, then four teams above this were all on forty-seven (including Sheffield Wednesday).",
"Wolves were one point above this tally, while seventeenth-to-fifteenth were all on fifty points.",
"Peterborough United and Huddersfield Town, two of three teams below Sheffield Wednesday had not played on the Monday, and were due to play the following day.",
"On 6 April, Sheffield Wednesday faced another massive game as they played Blackburn Rovers at Hillsborough, with Blackburn being on the same number of points as Wednesday and as equally in danger of being relegated.",
"The game started very lively from both teams, as they both attacked from the early stages looking for the vital win.",
"The first major talking point was only twelve minutes into the game, as Chris Kirkland just beat Jordan Rhodes in the box chasing down a long-ball, however Kirkland only managed to pat it to the opposition player David Dunn, Dunn knocked it round the keeper who then just pulled him back slightly and a penalty was given.",
"Dunn had knocked the ball quite far and therefore only a yellow card was shown, and not a red due to it not being a definite goal scoring opportunity.",
"Jordan Rhodes, who scored four-goals at his one visit at this ground last season, stepped up and sent Chris Kirkland the wrong way to give Blackburn the lead.",
"Not ten minutes later however, and a stretched Blackburn players foot gave Jermaine Johnson the ball just outside the area, whose trickery went round one player and finished finely into the bottom far corner to bring the scores back level again.",
"Sheffield Wednesday were easily on top for the rest of the half after this goal, with Réda Johnson turning brilliantly but blasting over the bar, soon after though and Réda Johnson went over in the box after his shirt was being pulled, the referee decided in giving another penalty in this game.",
"Sheffield Wednesday had only scored one penalty and missed three so far this season, however the record was improved when Leroy Lita fired the penalty into the roof of the net.",
"Lita then had a chance to put the Owls two goals clear by the break but the opposition goalkeeper made a save.",
"Into the second half and Sheffield Wednesday could not get into their stride and Blackburn Rovers had large amounts of play but created very little, although Jordan Rhodes and David Jones did come close.",
"It was not until just under twenty-minutes to go when Blackburn Rovers got what they deserved.",
"A corner came back out to Colin Kazim-Richards, who whipped a ball into the box which was met by Scott Dann who headed home to put the scores back level again.",
"After this the game became more even and Sheffield Wednesday got their foot in the game again and when the on-form Jermaine Johnson got the ball at this feet, just six minutes after the Blackburn goal, he dribbled with his pace and unleashed a fiere shot from 25 yards into the far bottom corner to give Sheffield Wednesday another vital lead.",
"Jermaine Johnson then sent Jérémy Hélan through on goal before the end of the match, but Hélan could not finish the game off.",
"Sheffield Wednesday gained another vital and fantastic victory, and with results elsewhere going their way, they managed to climb three-points clear of the relegation-zone and putting Blackburn in it.",
"Sheffield Wednesday played Millwall just three days after the Blackburn game.",
"The Millwall game was the game that the Owls had in hand over the majority of the other teams in the league, and therefore was seen as probably the most important game of the season so far, as it could see Sheffield Wednesday go six points clear of the relegation-zone and up to fourteenth in the league – their highest point since early October.",
"Millwall, who themselves could still possibly get relegated, had the first chance after just two minutes, when several strong 50–50 challenges took place within just a few seconds around the middle of the field, eventually saw the ball go out wide where a Millwall player took on two players, crossed into the box and at the far-post Jimmy Abdou tapped into the empty net to give Millwall a crucial early lead.",
"It was the first chance of the game, a chance that was scored.",
"Soon after a bobble on the edge of the area saw Millwall and ex-Sheffield United player Rob Hulse through on goal but Kirkland prevented him from dribbling the ball around him.",
"Although Steve Howard had a shot well saved for Sheffield Wednesday, Millwall remained on top of the game with ex-Owl Mark Beevers coming close.",
"With five minutes to go until half-time Sheffield Wednesday were awarded a free-kick around thirty yards from goal which Miguel Llera stood up and curled the ball into the bottom corner to leave the scores level at half-time, although Wednesday will have been wondering how they had come in at the break on level terms at all.",
"The second half was much similar to the first with Millwall being on top, however the Owls defended much better this time around.",
"Millwall still created chances though, Jermaine Easter had two, one of which was a one-on-one that was well saved by Kirkland, and he then later made another great save as a corner lead to Sean St Ledger over-head kicking the ball towards the bottom corner of the net.",
"In-form Jermaine Johnson came on off the bench for the Owls and had a brilliant solo-run that ended with the ball just going inches wide from back of the net.",
"It was Sheffield Wednesday's one of very few chances, and Millwall continued to pressurise and a long-ball forward saw Danny Shittu and Chris Kirkland come together and the ball dropped to a Millwall player whose shot was cleared off the line by Miguel Llera, although the whistle had just been blown for a foul on Kirkland.",
"As the clocked ticked down and the game went into the second minute of stoppage time Sheffield Wednesday earned a corner that was whipped towards the near post and it was substitute Chris Maguire who volleyed the ball home from a tight angle to send players, staff and the Owls fans 'bananas'.",
"Somehow Sheffield Wednesday had managed to win the game, and it was a result and goal that would hopefully be looked back on at the end of the season as the game that kept Sheffield Wednesday up in the Championship.",
"Another massive game came just a few days later in an early kick-off against Yorkshire rivals Leeds United.",
"The last contest between the two teams saw a fierce game on and off the pitch, with the most significant moment being when a Leeds United fan ran on the pitch and pushed goalkeeper Chris Kirkland in the face.",
"The game at Elland Road saw Leeds's new manager Brian McDermott in charge for the first time, and it started with Rodolph Austin having quite a few attempts although they were all from long distance and went well-wide from the target.",
"Both teams were cancelling out each other well, and when the ball was punted up field and flicked on by Jérémy Hélan, Jermaine Johnson's pace beat the opposition defender to the ball, and hooked it over the on-rushing keeper to put Wednesday a goal up.",
"Into the beginning of the second half and Leeds started to take control of the game and Steve Morison had a brilliant chance when he went through on goal and when he was just about to pull the trigger Réda Johnson came in with a fantastic tackle to keep the Owls in the lead.",
"Soon after Sheffield Wednesday were constantly having to make great saves and throwing bodies on the line to prevent Leeds United from scoring, but eventually it was not enough.",
"After all that fantastic defending the equaliser came from a free-header by ex-Owl Luke Varney to put the scores deservedly level.",
"However, Leeds continued to be on top and just a few minutes later another cross by Ross McCormack met another free-header by Luke Varney who took it very well again and Leeds United were then in front.",
"After this however, Sheffield Wednesday were on top of the game as they pushed for the equaliser.",
"Steve Howard came ever so close when hitting the post, and Leroy Lita's header from just a few yards out somehow did not end up in the back of the net.",
"On another day Sheffield Wednesday would have got something from this game, but today was not the day and the derby finished Leeds United 2–1 Sheffield Wednesday.",
"The Owls were now in sixteenth, but just four points above the relegation-zone.",
"The third away game in succession came as Wednesday faced Blackpool on a pitch, after all the poor winter weather, had been described many of times as being a 'beach' rather than a football pitch.",
"As Dave Jones sat in the stand for his last game of the two-game touchline ban, Sheffield Wednesday started by far the strongest team and had two really good chances within just the first five minutes; Jermaine Johnson just nicked the ball off one of the opposition defender's but his shot was well saved by Matt Gilks, then another mistake lead to Giles Coke striking a fierce shot from 25-yards which forced an even better save out of Matt Gilks.",
"Thomas Ince went close at the other end of the pitch with a long-distance shot, and then a mistake – this time by Wednesday – led by another in quick succession due to the poor pitch condition, saw Ince through one-on-one, but Chris Kirkland pulled out a good save to turn the ball behind for a corner.",
"Into the second half and a corner by Blackpool saw one of their players have the best opportunity of the game when he hit the bar, this then led to a cross and a goal-mouth scramble which was eventually cleared away by the Owls.",
"Apart from this the second half only entertained some half-chances, but both keepers had to ensure they were on their guard.",
"The final whistle blew and it was seen as good point for Sheffield Wednesday as it was an extra point towards safety.",
"The last three o'clock kick-off of the season for Sheffield Wednesday was when the Owls faced Ipswich Town at Hillsborough Stadium, with points for either team being vital in securing Championship safety.",
"It was Ipswich who had the first chance of the game when a corner was whipped in and headed down at the far post to see Danny Pugh fortunately being able to clear off the line.",
"It was not too long into the game when the first goal did come, and it was poor defending by Sheffield Wednesday when a long throw-in was not headed clear by Miguel Llera, and Jay Tabb easily tapped the ball into the net.",
"Soon after the goal Chris Kirkland made a great save from a volley outside the box.",
"Wednesday's luck soon got worse though as a tactical substitution saw Kieran Lee replaced by Steve Howard, seeing Wednesday's main goal threat, Jermaine Johnson, go out on the wing.",
"Just three minutes later Jermaine Johnson pulled his hamstring and another sub had to be made, and if Jermaine Johnson had injured himself before the tactical substitution, then Steve Howard would most likely have just replaced him, however instead two subs had been made within half-an-hour, and another injury was added to the list, unfortunately it was Sheffield Wednesday's main goal threat.",
"The Owls did have a great opportunity when Steve Howard had a free header sail over the bar from a corner.",
"Before half-time though a goal-mouth scramble saw a Leroy Lita volley saved and then Anthony Gardner's shot cleared off the line by an opposing defender.",
"Ipswich went close with a shot just a few minutes into the second half, but Sheffield Wednesday continued to make chances of their own, such as when Miguel Llera had a great effort in the area well saved by the opposing goalkeeper.",
"Finally the well deserved equaliser did come, and it was good link up play between Chris Maguire and Lewis Buxton down wing that produced a cross that managed to make its way to the back post where Leroy Lita scored an unstoppable shot into the bottom corner.",
"Miguel Llera then soon had a free-header which he somehow failed to put into the back of the net and then when Jérémy Hélan's pace on the wing produced a cross, Leroy Lita headed home to send Hillsborough wild.",
"However, scenes soon died down as the goal was disallowed for offside.",
"The last main piece of action of the game came from another long-throw from Ipswich, which Kirkland failed to punch clear, it was flicked on with the ball heading towards the empty net but luckily Danny Pugh was there yet again to clear off the line.",
"It left the Owls four-points from safety, like several other teams, with just two games to go.",
"In arguably the biggest game of the season, Sheffield Wednesday travelled to face Peterborough United in a late kick-off in front of the live Sky Sports television camera's.",
"With some of the earlier results going Sheffield Wednesday's way the Owls only needed a point to secure Championship safety.",
"However, if the Owls lost it would mean they would be one point above the relegation zone with one game to go.",
"With Wednesday without both star men Michail Antonio and Jermaine Johnson, along with Peterborough having only lost once in eleven games, it was Peterborough who had the majority of possession in the first half.",
"The first chance also fell to Peterborough when Dwight Gayle's out-stretched foot managed to get a shot-off which was only half-saved by Chris Kirkland and the ball continued to roll towards the net, but Miguel Llera was there to clear it away before anybody could get an extra touch to it.",
"Danny Pugh made a great clearance after a cross, but then at the other end Giles Coke forced a good save out of the opposition goalkeeper to keep the scores level.",
"A free-kick for the Owls then saw a scramble in the box that fell sweetly for Jérémy Hélan to volley, but Peterborough were putting their bodies on the line to block the shot.",
"Soon the best chance of the game so far came when Sheffield Wednesday's corner was whipped to the far post and Anthony Gardner somehow headed wide when it was just a simple tap in.",
"That was the last main piece of action of the half and as things stood the Owls were safe.",
"Another half was still to be played though and when Gayle soon had a shot stopped by Miguel Llera the Peterborough players appealed for handball, however it was not given and replays showed it looked more like ball-to-hand.",
"As Peterborough continued to be on top Anthony Gardner failed to clear his lines and ended up conceding a free-kick 25-yards out.",
"Grant McCann stepped up and curled the ball around the wall and it hit the inside of the post...and went in.",
"Peterborough celebrated wildly as it could mean a lot in a weeks time when deciding who would get relegated.",
"As Wednesday went in search of an equaliser Peterborough still looked more likely to score as they attacked on the break.",
"And when a dangerous cross was sent in and contact at all by Dwight Gayle would have doubled the score, but fortunately for the Owls he did not.",
"As time ticked on Wednesday did not really threaten the Peterborough goal as they searched for the equaliser that would save their season.",
"Then a corner with just a few-minutes to go was whipped to the far-post and headed into the centre of the box where several Sheffield Wednesday players were and several Peterborough players attempted to clear off the line, Peterborough did clear the almighty goal mouth scramble and that was the last main piece of action of the game.",
"Peterborough United had pulled off their greatest victory of the season in the attempt to fight off the drop, but it meant Sheffield Wednesday were one-point clear with one game to go and a host of clubs could be relegated.",
"Millwall, who could also get relegated, played their game in hand against Crystal Palace mid-week which finished goalless.",
"So with one-game to go for all clubs, and with several of them still possible to finish 22nd and 23rd, therefore getting relegated (joining 24th Bristol City), the table looked as follows:",
"4 May 2013 fell to the last game of the Championship season, which turned out to be the biggest and most important game of the season for Sheffield Wednesday as by the end of the match at home to Middlesbrough it would be known whether Sheffield Wednesday had secured Championship safety or been relegated to League One.",
"In the biggest attendance of the season at Hillsborough the home players played to match the great atmosphere as they started brilliantly, with Jermaine Johnson firstly dribbling between several players before shooting well wide.",
"After the early first chance the Owls could not stop creating chances as soon after Seyi Olofinjana volleyed over the bar.",
"Wednesday's early attacking pressure soon paid off with just nine-minutes gone.",
"A fantastic long through ball by Miguel Llera saw Steve Howard turn his man and fire an unstoppable shot into the roof of the net, sending Hillsborough wild.",
"Middlesbrough's best chance of the half was a solo effort by Curtis Main but his shot went comfortably wide.",
"Sheffield Wednesday continued to pressurise the Middlesbrough defence though and good play by Owls' Player of the Year Lewis Buxton lead to Jermaine Johnson's distance shot just going wide.",
"As the half hour make just passed a corner whipped in by Lewis Buxton was poked into the net by Leroy Lita to double the Owls' advantage and to step them closer to the win that would secure survival.",
"Soon after the second-goal Jérémy Hélan won back the ball from the wide position and put in a clever ball towards Steve Howard to tap into the net, however Howard missed his kick and the ball deflected back off the goalkeeper back into his path, but this time his shot was somehow kept out by a magnificent goal line clearance.",
"Before the half-time whistle was blown Wednesday created another great chance, or at least Danny Pugh did.",
"Pugh took on two-players before firing a shot into the side netting.",
"It could have been at least three or four goals for Sheffield Wednesday by half-time and they should have scored the third early in the second half as a back pass by Middlesbrough went straight to Leroy Lita whose shot was saved well by the opposing goalkeeper.",
"The second half developed into a different game as neither team created many chances but Middlesbrough had the better of the play, a free header from a corner went over the bar and then Grant Leadbitter's long-distance shot went just wide of pulling a goal back for Middlesbrough.",
"Sheffield Wednesday did have the last main chance of the game though when Leroy Lita's header went just wide, but at first the outcome looked terrifying as Lita collided with another player leading to teammates from both teams urgently going to the attention of Lita and calling for the club doctors and physios immediately.",
"However, luckily Leroy Lita soon got up and although was subbed, walked off looking okay.",
"The final whistle eventually came at the end of five-minutes of stoppages, leading to a pitch invasion in celebration of Sheffield Wednesday confirming their place in next season's Football League Championship.",
"Elsewhere, Wolverhampton Wanderers joined Bristol City in next season's League One along with Peterborough United after a last-minute conceded goal saw them go down instead of Barnsley.",
"So far Doncaster Rovers and Bournemouth from League One, and Reading and Queens Park Rangers from the Premier League are confirmed be playing Championship football next season.",

Modified GRF (1-29) | [
"The first 29 amino acids of GHRH were discovered to be as equally potent as its full 44 amino acid structure This fragment became known as GRF (1-29).",
"However, due to a rapid metabolic clearance analogues of GRF (1-29) were synthesized to enhance the biological activity and reduce the rapidity of metabolic clearance.",
"These analogues were primarily created by substituting amino acids within the peptide structure for amino acids more resistant to enzymatic cleavage.",
"One early analogue substituted the amino acid -alanine (abbreviated as Ala or A) at the 2nd position of the peptide structure for its optical isomer (mirror image), -alanine (abbreviated as -Ala).",
"This substitution resulted in a peptide bond between -Ala and the 3rd amino acid in the structure aspartic acid (Asp) more able to resist rapid cleavage by the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-4, a cleavage which had previously led to an inactive peptide fragment.",
"This successful modification prompted the further creation of analogues with additional amino acid substitutions.",
"In 2005, the first specific mention of tetrasubstitued GRF (1-29) appeared in a study that used it as one of the GRF (1-29) analogue peptide structures studied.",
"The term was used to describe the replacement of the 2nd, 8th, 15th, and 27th amino acids in the structure of GRF (1-29).",
"In 2008, a researcher known as DatBtrue created the term modified GRF (1-29) in place of tetrasubstitued GRF (1-29) in his public articles.",
"Continued use of the term on public and private forums has popularized and standardized the nomenclature.",
"Modified GRF (1-29) acts to increase growth hormone production and release by binding to the growth-hormone-releasing hormone receptor (GHRHR) on cells in the anterior pituitary.",
"GRF (1-29), also known as sermorelin (Tyr-Ala-Asp-Ala-Ile-Phe-Thr-Asn-Ser-Tyr-Arg-Lys-Val-Leu-Gly-Gln-Leu-Ser-Ala-Arg-Lys-Leu-Leu-Gln-Asp-Ile-Met-Ser-Arg-NH2), the biologically-active portion of the 44 amino acid GHRH.",
"Half-life \"less than 10 minutes\", perhaps as low as 5 minutes.",
"Mod GRF (1-29) replacement of the 2nd, 8th, 15th, and 27th amino acids of GRF (1-29) yields modified GRF(1-29) (Tyr--Ala-Asp-Ala-Ile-Phe-Thr-Gln-Ser-Tyr-Arg-Lys-Val-Leu-Ala-Gln-Leu-Ser-Ala-Arg-Lys-Leu-Leu-Gln-Asp-Ile-Leu-Ser-Arg-NH2).",

"Modified GRF (1-29) often abbreviated as mod GRF (1-29), originally known as tetrasubstitued GRF (1-29), is a term used to identify a 29 amino acid peptide analogue of growth-hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH), a releasing hormone of growth hormone (GH)."

"Cowdrey's 2016 season was cut short in July when he had an emergency appendectomy.",
"On the eve of the 2017 season he left Kent by mutual consent with Cowdrey later saying that his \"love for the game is gone, my heart's not in it\".",
"In April 2017 Cowdrey made his first appearance on BBC Radio Kent as a cricket commentator, covering Kent's match against Derbyshire at Canterbury and later in the year began writing for \"The Cricketer\".",

"His grandfather, Colin, Lord Cowdrey also captained both sides and played 114 Test matches for England, the first man to make 100 Test appearances.",
"He was honoured for his services to cricket, the first English cricketer to be ennobled in this way.",
"His uncle, Graham Cowdrey, also played for Kent and his great-grandfather, Ernest Cowdrey made one first-class cricket appearance in the 1920s.",
"Cowdrey has a twin brother, Julius, who is a professional musician and reality TV character, joining Made in Chelsea in 2016.",

"The wells came in as one of the biggest oil strikes in the world, making the Ewing family even wealthier.",
"However, Jock was so upset over J.R.'s remortgaging of Southfork Ranch that Bobby stepped in to help run Ewing Oil.",
"J.R. had gotten word that problems were escalating in Asia so he decided to sell 75% of the Asian leases to members of the Cartel (a small group of independent oil companies who work together for mutual benefit) - Seth Stone, Jordan Lee, Wade Luce and Andy Bradley - as well as banker Vaughn Leland, all bought shares.",
"The next day there was a political revolt in Asia and the wells were nationalized.",
"The investors lost everything, sending them all near bankruptcy, though J.R. had minimized his losses by selling most of his shares.",
"Seth Stone could not bear to tell his wife Marilee that he had nearly bankrupted her father's company, and killed himself.",
"Jock and Bobby believed that J.R. knew the wells were going to be nationalized, and that the Cartel had been double crossed, but J.R. denied that he knew anything prior to the nationalization.",
"Bobby decided to leave Dallas after Jock supported J.R. shutting down a Ewing field to prevent Cliff Barnes from gaining any profit from the field (Cliff discovered a document that proved his father owned half of the field).",
"One night in the spring of 1980, J.R. was shot at the Ewing offices.",

"But unbeknown to Bobby, Jock had taken $12,000,000 out of the Ewing Oil account to go into a business deal with Punk Anderson.",
"Bobby eventually pulled the deal off via a loan but had a terrible fight with Jock and decided to quit Ewing Oil, and later became a state senator.",
"Jock reinstated J.R. as president and his first move was to improve both his and Ewing Oil's public image, so he hired public relations specialist Leslie Stewart.",
"J.R. secretly financed the overthrow of the new government that nationalized the Asian wells and the country's new rulers returned the oil wells to their Texas owners.",
"The Cartel and Jock were thrilled but Cliff Barnes uncovered J.R.'s plot and tried to have him prosecuted but failed.",
"After his wife Sue Ellen left Southfork and moved in with Dusty Farlow at Southern Cross Ranch in San Angelo, J.R. began stock-piling all of the oil that went to Farlow Refineries as a way to force Sue Ellen to come back to him with their son, John Ross.",
"This put a great strain on the Ewing finances as the price of oil dropped and J.R. was stuck with a load of oil he couldn't get rid of.",
"In 1982, Jock was killed in a helicopter crash in South America.",
"Just prior to this, as an interim measure in his absence, Jock gave his family the power to control the company with voting shares which were divided as follows: \nMiss Ellie Ewing (30%)\nJ.R. Ewing (20%)\nBobby Ewing (20%)\nJohn Ross Ewing III (10%) (Ellie voted them if he was living off of Southfork, J.R. if he was living on Southfork)\nGary Ewing (10%) (which he gave to Lucy)\nRay Krebbs (10%)\nWhen J.R.'s plan to ruin the Farlows backfired, Miss Ellie stepped in to stop the destruction of Ewing Oil and made a deal with Clayton Farlow.",
"Furious at J.R., she persuaded the family to vote with her to have him fired as president, but changed her mind at the last moment as nobody would be able to take his place at the time.",
"However, when Ellie later learned that J.R. had used Ewing Oil to ruin Cliff Barnes (resulting in his attempted suicide), the family voted unanimously to remove J.R. as president and Bobby took over again.",
"Some months later, Jock Ewing's will was finally read which stated that Ewing Oil would be split 50-50 between J.R. and Bobby and would run half each as a separate company for a period of one year.",
"At the end of the year, the brother with the greatest profit would inherit 51% of the company and the loser would get 19%.",
"The remainder would go to Miss Ellie, Ray and Gary who would inherit 10% each.",
"Bobby's route was to drill in frozen ground in Canada using a new, experimental Tundra Torque drill bit.",
"J.R.'s route was to over-pump oil with a special variance from the OLM (which he obtained through blackmail), refine it and open a chain of cut-price gas stations.",
"The battle for Ewing Oil tore the family apart.",
"Bobby and Pam divorced; and Cliff and Pamela's mother, Rebecca Wentworth, died in a plane crash in an attempt to stop J.R. from winning.",
"In the fall of 1983, J.R. and Bobby decided to call the battle off and divide their shares equally regardless of who won the contest.",
"When it initially appeared that J.R. was the winner, he was about to double-cross Bobby and take control of Ewing Oil, but at the last moment Bobby Ewing won the contest when his Canadian project struck oil.",
"Bobby kept his word and allowed J.R. to have an equal share in the company and the brothers would run the company side by side.",
"Ownership of Ewing Oil was now as follows:\nJ.R.: 35%\nBobby: 35%\nGary: 10%\nMiss Ellie: 10%\nRay: 10%\nIn 1984, Bobby was shot at the office by Katherine Wentworth, Pam's sister who was in love with him.",
"During his recovery, Donna Krebbs stepped into his place, much to the annoyance of J.R.\nJamie Ewing, Jock's niece, turned up at Southfork Ranch from Alaska, where she had been working in the oil business.",
"Her father Jason, Jock's brother, had died and Jamie had a document which proved that Ewing Oil was in fact owned by Jock, Digger Barnes and Jason.",
"Jamie married Cliff Barnes and they sided to take the Ewings to court for their rightful shares in Ewing Oil.",
"The case went to court and the Ewings had a fight on their hands to keep control.",
"Jamie's brother, Jack, came to Dallas and went to J.R. and Bobby to reveal that he had proof that Ewing Oil was owned outright by Jock Ewing.",
"But there was a price for this information, Jack wanted 10% of Ewing Oil.",
"The Ewing family agreed and Jack took Ray, Bobby and J.R. to meet a man called Wally Wyndham.",
"He had witnessed the dissolving of the partnership and revealed that the document was with Jock's first wife, Amanda Ewing.",
"The family met with Amanda, retrieved the document and won the battle for control.",
"The company was now owned as follows:\nJ.R.: 30%\nBobby: 30%\nGary:10%\nMiss Ellie:10%\nRay:10%\nJack: 10%\nBy 1986, the price of oil dropped dramatically, the Middle East flooded the market with their oil, sending the price of crude oil down to an all-time low.",
"It was beneficial for WestStar, but disastrous for independents like Ewing Oil.",
"J.R. was forced to shut down many fields, causing a great deal of unemployment.",
"A Ewing employee named Scotfield lost his job and, in his anger, he blew up a well, was later arrested and committed suicide.",
"Mrs Scotfield, his widow, wanted revenge and told Bobby that \"one day a big fish like Ewing Oil is gonna get eaten up and swallowed whole by a even bigger fish\".",
"By this time, Jack Ewing's ex-wife April Stevens had arrived in Dallas to claim half of Jack's 10% share of Ewing Oil as per the terms of their divorce settlement.",
"Jack maliciously sold his 10% share to Jamie for $1 so April would only get 50 cents, but after Jamie died without leaving a signed will, her husband Cliff Barnes inherited it, finally giving him a piece of the Ewing's company, much to J.R.'s chagrin.",
"Jack and the Ewings went to court to nullify the sale Jack made to Jamie but were only partly successful as the judge decided that only April's half of Jack's 10% was sold fraudulently but Jack's own half was not and therefore Cliff got to keep 5% of Ewing oil.",
"As April agreed to sell her share back to J.R. and Bobby, the company was now divided as follows:\nJ.R.: 32.5%\nBobby: 32.5%\nGary:10%\nMiss Ellie:10%\nRay:10%\nCliff: 5%\nThe same year, J.R. wanted the price of American crude to rise and he met with mercenary B.D. Calhoun whom he paid to go to the Middle East and start trouble by blowing up oil wells.",
"However, the CIA had Calhoun under surveillance and made this known to J.R. who tried to call the deal off, but Calhoun refused to stop.",
"J.R. informed the CIA as to Calhoun's mission, and the mission failed, with Calhoun's mercenaries dying in the process.",
"Calhoun blamed J.R. and set out to exact revenge.",
"He kidnapped John Ross and threatened to kill him, but Ray shot Calhoun in time.",
"The CIA decided on a cover up to keep their involvement secret.",
"However, Mrs Scotfield's brother worked at the CIA's archives as a clerk.",
"He stumbled upon information revealing J.R.'s involvement with Calhoun, which was a federal crime.",
"Mrs. Scotfield then gave the story to a small town paper which printed it and opened the biggest can of worms J.R. was ever to see.",
"Jeremy Wendell of WestStar wanted Ewing Oil's assets.",
"He made Mrs. Scotfield a rich woman, for which she gave him the evidence he needed to destroy Ewing Oil.",

"Therefore it seems there will be again the possibility for Dominique to play a guitar, and maybe sooner than what can be expected.\"",
"The injury made it impossible for Leurquin to be a part of the band for almost two years; instead of replacing him with another guitarist for the upcoming Ascending to Infinity Tour, Turilli arranged all the songs to add Leurquin's parts on the backing tracks at lower volume.",

"On June 20, 2018, Turilli had announced on the band's official Facebook page that the band would be going on an indefinite hiatus, due to the other members' commitments to other musical projects, such as vocalist Alessandro Conti who was announced as the new vocalist for Swedish symphonic power metal band Twilight Force earlier that month and drummer Alex Landenburg who was later confirmed as the new drummer for the American power metal band Kamelot on April 10, 2019.",

1971–72 Derby County F.C. season | [
"Derby began the season with an unbeaten League run of five wins and seven draws although they did exit the League Cup at the second round stage, beaten 2–0 in a replay at Leeds.",
"Defeat at leaders Manchester United in their 13th match triggered a period of inconsistent league form that saw Derby lose five times in 11 matches, the last at Elland Road just after Christmas, but they lost just one of their next 13 and a 2–0 victory against Leeds at the Baseball Ground over Easter took them to the top of the table.",
"They remained there despite losing to Newcastle in the next match, their only home defeat of the season, and then drawing with West Bromwich Albion but had now played a game more than the three teams below them (Leeds, Liverpool and Manchester City) with only two points separating the four.",
"Two victories followed but defeat at Manchester City in their penultimate match of the campaign saw Derby slip to third with the title race still wide open.",
"City, having completed their fixtures, now led the table on 57 points but could no longer win the league, with Derby and second-placed Liverpool both a point behind and separated only by goal average.",
"Crucially, the two would meet at the Baseball Ground in Derby's final match although the Reds still had a further game in hand.",
"Leeds lay fourth on 55 points, also with two matches remaining and a superior goal average to the other challengers.",
"Derby ended their season by beating Liverpool 1–0, John McGovern netting the winner, leaving them on 58 points with Leeds (who beat Chelsea 2–0 on the same night) on 57 and Liverpool on 56.",
"Derby's destiny was not in their own hands and they left the country to escape the pressure - Brian Clough holidayed with his family in the Isles of Scilly while Peter Taylor went to Majorca with the players.",
"Leeds needed a draw and Liverpool a win to overtake Derby.",
"In the event, Wolverhampton Wanderers beat Leeds 2–1 at Molineux and Liverpool could only manage a 0–0 draw at Arsenal.",
"The league was unusually close throughout the campaign and the final table saw Derby champions just one point ahead of the teams in 2nd (Leeds), 3rd (Liverpool) and 4th (City).",
"Clough had built a balanced team at Derby, one in which every player knew his job.",
"They rarely swept away the opposition, instead building on the foundations of a strong defence, although there were some memorable performances, notably in 4–0 defeats of Stoke and Nottingham Forest at the Baseball Ground and away to Sheffield United.",
"Although Derby reached the FA Cup fifth round, losing 1–0 to eventual runners-up Arsenal in a second replay at Filbert Street, their primary cup success for 1971–72 came in the Texaco Cup, a competition between sixteen English, Scottish and Irish clubs who were not in European competition.",
"With home gates consistently over 20,000, Derby beat Dundee United (8–5 on aggregate), Stoke (4–3 agg.) and Newcastle (4–2 agg.) before playing Airdrieonians in the final.",
"After a 0–0 draw at Broomfield Park, Derby beat their Scottish opponents 2–1 in the second leg at the Baseball Ground with Roger Davies, signed for £12,000 the previous summer from non-league Worcester City, grabbing the decisive goal to give Derby their second cup win in as many seasons.",
"Record signing defender Colin Todd claimed the club's Player of the Year while Alan Hinton finished the season as top scorer with 15 goals.",

"On the nights of September 19 and 21, Clementi texted with Ravi about using their room for the evening.",
"On the first occasion, Ravi met Clementi's male friend, and Clementi said that the two wanted to be alone for the evening.",
"In conversations with Wei and later text messages with friends, Ravi expressed distrust of the stranger that Clementi brought into the room, describing him as \"an older, shabbier-looking guy\".",
"Ravi said he was worried about theft and that he left the computer in a state where he could view the webcam due to those concerns.",
"However, other witnesses testified that Ravi said he also wanted to confirm that Clementi was gay.",
"Ravi and Wei viewed the video stream via iChat for a few seconds, seeing Clementi and his guest kissing.",
"Ravi posted to his 150 Twitter followers, \"Roommate asked for the room till midnight.",
"I went into molly's room and turned on my webcam.",
"I saw him making out with a dude.",
"Yay.\"",
"Soon after, Wei began an online chat in which she said that the two men had been \"kissing [each other] right now / like THEY WERE GROPING EACH OTHER.\"",
"Later, Wei turned on the camera for another view with four others in the room, though Ravi was not there.",
"During this second viewing, Wei and others saw Clementi and his guest kissing with their shirts off and their pants on.",
"Clementi followed Ravi on Twitter.",
"Although Clementi could not see Ravi's phone text messages, he saw his Twitter postings the next day.",
"Clementi viewed Ravi's Twitter posts 38 times following the first webcam viewing.",
"Late on September 20, Clementi wrote to a friend online that, initially, he was not really bothered by what Ravi had seen in the first, brief viewing, primarily due to its extreme brevity.",
"According to a Rutgers employee, at about 4 a.m. on September 21, after further conversations online, Clementi sent an online request for a single room because his \"roommate used webcam to spy on me.",

"On September 21, Ravi sent a friend a series of text messages, including messages saying, \"Yeah, keep the gays away\" and \"People are having a viewing party with a bottle of Bacardi and beer in this kid's room for my roommate\" along with directions on how to view it remotely.",
"At 6:39 p.m., Ravi tweeted, \"Anyone with iChat, I dare you to video chat me between the hours of 9:30 and 12.",
"Yes, it's happening again.\"",
"Ravi had set up the webcam and initially pointed it towards Clementi's bed.",
"Ravi has stated that he realized that his \"joke\" was \"stupid\", and pointed the webcam towards his own bed before the planned viewing on September 21.",
"The police say, however, that it was subsequently found still pointed directly at Clementi's bed.",
"When Ravi's friend suggested that Clementi and his guest might use his bed, Ravi said \"My webcam checks my bed, hahaha.",
"\"\nAt trial, two Rutgers students testified that Ravi had spent part of that early evening in their dorm rooms, and used their computers to verify that the webcam was still focused on the bed.",
"The captain of Ravi's Ultimate Frisbee team testified that, after practice that evening, Ravi \"told me he had set up a webcam of some sort to capture images of his roommate.",
"He told me he had done it before that date\" and \"that he was planning on doing it again.",
"That night.\"",
"When Clementi returned to his room, he noticed the camera and texted a friend saying he had unplugged Ravi's powerstrip to prevent further video streaming during his date.",
"Ravi has said that he had changed his mind regarding the broadcast and disabled the camera himself by putting the computer in sleep mode.",
"On September 21, Clementi complained to a resident assistant and two other officials that Ravi had used a webcam to videostream part of Clementi's private sexual encounter with another man.",
"The resident assistant testified at trial that Clementi appeared shaky and uncomfortable when they met around 11 p.m., and in his official report of the meeting, the resident assistant said that Clementi requested both a room change and punishment for Ravi.",
"In a formal e-mail request to the resident assistant made after the meeting, Clementi described the two viewing incidents, quoted from Ravi's Twitter postings, and wrote \"I feel that my privacy has been violated and I am extremely uncomfortable sharing a room with someone who would act in this wildly inappropriate manner.\"",
"Clementi wrote in detail on the Just Us Boys and Yahoo!",
"message boards about complaints he filed through university channels about his roommate.",
"His posts indicated that he did not want to share a room with Ravi after he learned about the first incident and then discovered that Ravi invited his Twitter followers to watch a second sexual encounter.",
"\"He [the resident assistant] seemed to take it seriously,\" Clementi wrote in a post about 15 hours before his jump from the George Washington Bridge.",
"On September 22, a friend of Ravi asked what had happened to the live stream the night before.",
"Ravi responded, \"It got messed up and didn't work.\"",
"In the afternoon, the resident assistant confronted Ravi about Clementi's written complaint, in which he requested a room change.",
"Within a few hours, Clementi returned to his dorm room and he and Ravi were there for less than an hour.",
"On the evening of September 22, the day after Ravi's second webcam transmission attempt, Clementi left the dorm room, got food, and, around 6:30 p.m., headed toward the George Washington Bridge.",
"By 8:42 p.m., Clementi had made his way to the George Washington Bridge and posted from his cell phone on Facebook, \"Jumping off the gw bridge sorry.",
"\"\nFive minutes after Clementi posted on Facebook, Ravi sent the first of two final messages to Clementi.",
"The messages were sent after Ravi had been visited that afternoon by the resident assistant and told of Clementi's complaint:\n\"I want to explain what happened.",
"Sunday night when you requested to have someone over I didn't realize you wanted the room in private.",
"I went to Molly's room and I was showing her how I set up my computer so I can access it from anywhere.",
"I turned on my camera and saw you in the corner of the screen and I immediately closed it.",
"I felt uncomfortable and guilty of what happened.",
"Obviously I told people what occurred so they could give me advice.",
"Then Tuesday when you requested the room again I wanted to make sure what happened Sunday wouldn't happen again and not to video chat me from 930 to 12.",
"Just in case, I turned my camera away and put my computer to sleep so even if anyone tried it wouldn't work.",
"I wanted to make amends for Sunday night.",
"I'm sorry if you heard something distorted and disturbing",
"but I assure you all my actions were good natured.",
"\"\nThe prosecution noted that the apology came after Ravi learned he faced discipline by Rutgers.",
"Prosecutor Julia McClure said that the apology was one of \"many attempts\" by Ravi to \"dilute, cover up and explain, in other words to tamper with the facts and to fabricate evidence that could be looked on as favorable to him.",
"\"\nTen minutes later, Ravi texted again:",
"On September 28, 2010, Dharun Ravi and Molly Wei were charged with four and two counts of invasion of privacy, respectively, for their roles in the webcam spying incidents on September 19, 2010 and September 21, 2010.",
"Under New Jersey law, one commits a fourth-degree crime of invasion of privacy if one observes another person without that person's consent under circumstances in which a \"reasonable person would know that another may expose intimate parts or may engage in sexual penetration or sexual contact.\"",
"A third-degree crime is committed if one discloses a \"reproduction of the image\" of the observed person.",
"Ravi was charged with both third- and fourth-degree invasion of privacy.",
"Soon after these charges were filed, there were calls from gay rights advocates and bloggers to include hate crimes charges against Ravi and Wei.\nBruce Kaplan, the prosecutor in the case, said \"now that two individuals have been charged with invasion of privacy, we will be making every effort to assess whether bias played a role in the incident, and, if so, we will bring appropriate charges.\"",
"On October 4, 2010, Kaplan stated that he did not think there would be enough evidence to charge Ravi and Wei with a hate crime.",
"After further investigation, the prosecution concluded that there was evidence supporting a hate crime charge against Ravi, dating to when Ravi first learned Clementi's name.",
"On April 20, 2011, a Middlesex County grand jury indicted Ravi on 15 counts, including bias intimidation, invasion of privacy, witness tampering, and evidence tampering.",
"The witness tampering charges were based on text messages Ravi sent to Wei, in which he tried to persuade her not to contradict what he had told police.",
"In these messages, Ravi said \"Did you tell them we did it on purpose?\", and \"Because I said we were just messing around with the camera.\"",
"Wei responded \"Omg dharun why didnt u talk to me first i told them everything\".",
"According to a prosecution expert witness, Ravi deleted almost 100 text messages between him and Wei and another high school friend, whom he had invited to view Clementi's second encounter with his guest.",
"A key aspect of the prosecution's evidence tampering charge was Ravi's deletion of two potentially incriminating postings: one on Twitter on September 19 in which he wrote that his roommate was \"making out with a dude.",
"Yay\", and one on September 21 in which he told his iChat followers \"dare you to video chat me\" during the time of Clementi's tryst.",
"He replaced the latter post with one that said \"don't you dare video chat me\" at the time of the tryst, stating that the first message was a draft.",
"Ravi was charged with third and fourth degree invasion of privacy.",
"Soon after the charges against Wei were made public, Wei's attorneys released a statement proclaiming her innocence, and a former New Jersey federal prosecutor commented that, \"there's no evidence of Ms. Wei doing anything.",
"I'm very curious as to why the prosecutor is holding her responsible in any way, shape, or form simply because Mr. Ravi was using her computer.",
"\"\nSteve Altman, Ravi's attorney, said, \"Nothing was transmitted beyond one computer and what was seen was only viewed for a matter of seconds.\"",
"Rubin Sinins, Wei's attorney, said, \"I'm unaware of any evidence of sexual contact.",
"The statute defining sexual contact refers to nudity and private parts, and, to my knowledge, nothing like that was seen.",
"I'm also unaware of any evidence that any video was recorded, reproduced or disseminated in any way.",
"\"",
"Wei and the prosecutor reached a plea agreement on May 6, 2011.",
"Under the agreement, all charges against Wei would be dropped if Wei testified against Ravi and completed a three-year intervention program, including counseling and community service.",
"Clementi's parents \"supported leniency for Wei\", believing that her \"actions, although unlawful, were substantially different in their nature and their extent than the actions of Tyler's former roommate\" and that she \"was forthcoming and cooperative during the investigation.",
"\"\nIn December 2011, Ravi rejected a plea agreement in which he would not spend any time in jail and through which the prosecutor's office would assist him in fighting any potential deportation orders.",
"Ravi is a citizen of India living legally in the United States.",
"In rejecting the plea arrangement, Ravi's lawyer stated: \"Simple answer, simple principle ...",
"He's innocent.",
"He's not guilty.",
"That's why he rejected the plea.",
"\"",
"Ravi was represented during the trial by attorneys Steven Altman and Philip Nettl of the New Jersey criminal defense law firm Benedict & Altman.",
"The trial lasted 13 days with closing arguments ending on March 13, 2012.",
"In August 2011, Ravi's defense attorney requested a mistrial because the prosecution had not presented evidence to the grand jury which, he argued, would have cleared Ravi, and had presented other evidence in what he said was a misleading manner.",
"This evidence included documents that showed that Clementi had titled files on his computer \"Why does it have to be so painful\" and took photographs of the George Washington Bridge a month before entering Rutgers.",
"The judge did not grant Ravi's motion.",
"Ravi was not charged with a role in the suicide.<ref name=\"20/20 interview\"></ref>",
"On February 24, 2012, Assistant Prosecutor Julia McClure told jurors that Dharun Ravi acted to \"deprive\" Tyler Clementi of his \"privacy\" and \"dignity\" when he observed an intimate encounter of Clementi and later invited others to watch a second liaison of Clementi and his friend.",
"Ravi's actions were not, she emphasized, a \"prank\", \"accident\", or \"mistake\", but rather were \"intentional\", \"planned\", \"criminal\", and \"mean-spirited\".",
"She said Ravi was motivated by the fact that Clementi was homosexual: \"he sought to brand Tyler as different from everybody else\" and \"to set him up for contempt.\"",
"Later, she explained, Ravi tried to \"cover up the tracks\" of his actions by altering evidence.",
"Defense attorney Steven Altman said that Ravi's actions were those of an \"18-year-old boy\".",
"He argued that although these actions may have been \"immature\" and \"stupid\", they were not hateful, bigoted, or criminal.",
"\"There was no bullying,\" Altman emphasized.",
"Ravi never \"harassed\", \"ridiculed\", or even said \"anything bad\" about his roommate.",
"Moreover, Altman said that Ravi saw only a few seconds of hugging and that nobody \"transmitted\" or \"reproduced any image of anything\".",
"Wei testified that, shortly after 9 p.m. on September 19, 2010, Dharun Ravi came to Wei's room and within a few minutes he showed her how he could get live images from his room via an auto-accept feature of his computer's video chat.",
"Wei said that both she and Ravi were \"shocked\" when they saw Clementi and another man leaning against the bed kissing.",
"Wei said that she and Ravi viewed for only a few seconds, turned off the video stream, and initially agreed not to tell anyone, because it \"just felt weird\" and she felt it was wrong.",
"Several minutes later she chatted about the incident online.",
"Ravi later left the room to shower and Wei, within an hour of the initial viewing, accessed Ravi's webcam again, at the request of a friend, and briefly showed four other students.",
"Wei said the scene was the same as that before, except that the men's shirts were off.",
"According to one student, the two men were turned so one could not see their faces.",
"Wei and other students testified that Ravi had told them that he was concerned about his possessions.",
"Two of these students testified that Ravi also said he wanted to confirm that his roommate was gay.",
"Several students described Clementi's guest as \"shabby\" or \"shady\".",
"The prosecution argued that only Ravi and one other student had seen Clementi's guest in person and that the other student said the guest was not \"anything out of the ordinary\" and, while older, was \"not obscenely old\".",
"None of the students said that Ravi had expressed any animosity towards gays.",
"One student said that Ravi had called Clementi \"nice\", and another said that Ravi had told him he had a gay friend.",
"Wei said that Ravi mentioned that Clementi was gay, but \"didn't make a big deal out of it\".",
"On March 2, 2012, Tyler Clementi's guest, M.B., testified for more than five hours.",
"To protect his privacy as a possible crime victim, the judge ordered that media could show only his hands and could not record him—courtroom restrictions that were a \"rare exception\" according to \"The New York Times\" account.",
"M.B.'s testimony was important, not only because he himself was an alleged victim, but because the defense had portrayed him as a suspicious character that prompted Ravi's actions.",
"According to former prosecutor John Fahy, it was also important for the prosecution to establish that sexual activity had occurred, and M.B. had to answer specific questions about the nature of that activity.",
"Kate Zernike of \"The New York Times\" described M.B. as having \"close-cropped hair\", not dressed as casually as on September 19, 2010, but his \"hair and bearing much the same\" as in the Rutgers dormitory surveillance camera photo.",
"She wrote that \"he did not look, as Mr. Ravi's friends have described him, 'scruffy' or 'shady'.\"",
"However, M.B. testified that he had not shaved the evening of the encounter.",
"According to M.B.'s testimony, he and Clementi met on a social network site and the September 19 meeting was the second of three dates.",
"M.B. said his relationship with Clementi was a \"good relationship\", which included continual texting and online chats, and that Clementi was \"happy\" when he last saw him.",
"M.B. said that during the September 19 visit he noticed a webcam pointed at Clementi's bed and thought the position \"was kind of strange\", although he did not think that anyone was actually watching.",
"In cross-examination, he noted he remembered this only when it later became relevant.",
"M.B. also said that when he lay in Clementi's bed, he heard people joking and laughing in the courtyard, and it \"seemed like the jokes were at somebody else's expense\".",
"When he left the room, there were about five students who \"seemed to be looking at me and it seemed kind of unsettling\".",
"Ravi's communications, both in person and in texts and tweets, were key evidence in regard to the September 21 incident.",
"The prosecution contended that on September 21 Ravi set up his webcam to view a second tryst of Clementi's and advertised it to friends and Twitter followers.",
"The viewing was thwarted, they argued, only because Clementi unplugged the computer.",
"Ravi said that his messages were made in a joking manner and that he later turned off the webcam so that no viewing would occur.",
"Tyler Clementi followed Ravi's Twitter messages, visiting Ravi's Twitter page 38 times on the two days before his suicide.",
"Clementi saved two of the messages.",
"On September 20 Clementi saw the first message, which Ravi had made a few minutes after the September 19 viewing, and Clementi discussed it with friends.",
"Ravi wrote: \"Roommate asked for the room till midnight.",
"I went into Molly's room and turned on my webcam.",
"I saw him making out with a dude.",
"Yay.\"",
"The second saved message was sent by Ravi on September 21 (6:39 p.m.), after Clementi late that afternoon requested private use of the room for another tryst: \"Anyone with i-chat, I dare you to video chat me between 9:30 and 12.",
"Yes, it's happening again.",
"\"\nOn the afternoon of September 21, Ravi texted his friend Michelle Huang.",
"Ravi said that Clementi's guest \"was older and creepy and def from the internet\".",
"He said he had not seen the guest since September 19, but \"My webcam checks my bed hahaha.",
"I got so creeped out after Sunday.\"",
"He then added, \"Yeah keep the gays away.\"\nShortly after Ravi sent his \"dare you\" tweet at 6:39 p.m., Ravi urged Huang to later watch the videostream: \"Do it for real!",
"I have it pointed at his bed.",
"And the monitor is off so he can't see you.",
"Be careful it could get nasty.\"",
"At 8:41, in another text conversation, Ravi told Huang that \"people are having a viewing party\" with rum and beer.",
"Ravi told Huang the next day, \"It got messed up and didn't work.\"",
"On September 23, Ravi and Huang discussed Clementi's death and Huang asked, \"Didn't you say there was a viewing party once. ...\"",
"Ravi answered, \"No that was a joke.",
"\"\nTwo Rutgers students testified that Ravi, in an apparent test of his webcam, used computers in their rooms to connect to his own.",
"A Rutgers information technology analyst reported that iChat connections were made with Ravi's computer from these students' computers at 6:58 and 7:44 p.m. on September 21.",
"The first student said that Ravi encouraged him to text friends to watch Clementi's date and that Ravi used his computer to test the angle of the webcam so that it was pointed at Clementi's bed.",
"The second student said that after dinner Ravi \"hyped up\" his earlier \"dare you\" tweet, that Ravi used her computer to access his iChat, and that \"Tyler's side of the room came into view\" when the webcam was accessed.",
"The first student said that the next day he told Ravi that the webstream had not worked: \"Then I saw [Ravi] in the lounge and I said, 'Yo, it didn't work.'",
"And he said, 'Yeah, I have been getting that from a lot of people.'\"\nAt 9:15 p.m. Clementi saved a screenshot of Ravi's \"dare you to video chat me\" tweet.",
"At 9:25 Ravi's computer was disconnected, according to analysis by the Rutgers IT expert, and it stayed disconnected till 11:19 p.m.",
"At 9:33 Clementi told a friend online that he had turned off the power strip to Ravi's computer.",
"At 10:19 Clementi's guest arrived.",
"Ravi left for ultimate frisbee practice around 8:30–9:00 p.m.\nThe captain of the frisbee team testified that after practice, at 11 p.m., he, Ravi and others went to get takeout food at the dining hall and that Ravi said that \"he had set up a webcam of some sorts to capture images of his roommate\", had \"done it before,\" and that night \"was planning on doing it again\".",
"The student also testified that Ravi seemed uncomfortable with his roommate's being gay, but had said nothing explicitly \"disparaging\".",
"Shortly after 11 p.m. Ravi texted Clementi to see if he was still using the room.",
"At 11:48, Clementi texted Ravi that \"we're done.",
"\"\nIn an interview with investigators, Ravi said that on September 21 he had turned the webcam away from Clementi's bed.",
"A former university detective testified that, when he inspected the dorm room on Sept. 23, the webcam was \"angled directly at Tyler's bed\".",
"Only a portion of Clementi's requests for a room change were permitted to be seen by the jury.",
"After discussing with friends Ravi's first Twitter message (\"saw my roommate making out with a dude\"), Clementi, at 3:55 a.m. on September 21, filed a request on the Rutgers housing website; he wrote, \"roommate used webcam to spy on me/want a single room.\"",
"The part about spying was ruled hearsay and not admissible.",
"Late on the evening of September 21, after seeing Ravi's \"dare you\" tweet and just before his meeting with M.B., Clementi visited a resident assistant, Rahi Grover.",
"Grover was not permitted to testify about what Clementi said, but did testify about Clementi's demeanor.",
"He said that Clementi's voice was \"a little shaky\" and that he appeared uncomfortable.",
"The judge allowed some parts of Grover's official report of the incident: \"Tyler is quite upset and feels uncomfortable.",
"Tyler prefers some sort of roommate switch ASAP and prefers some sort of punishment for Dharun Ravi.\"",
"Grover also included his own recommendation that a roommate change be made as soon as possible, and he offered Clementi a bed in his own room for that night, which Clementi declined.",
"Grover requested that Clementi later send him an e-mail to formalize the roommate change request, part of which was allowed as evidence.",
"In his e-mail (12:03 a.m.)",
"Clementi wrote: \"I feel like my privacy has been violated and I am extremely uncomfortable sharing a room with someone who would act in such a wildly inappropriate manner.\"",
"The judge ruled that \"wildly inappropriate\" be excluded from jury evidence since it was not a present sense impression but a description of past actions that Clementi had deliberated on.",
"According to former prosecutor John Fahy, Clementi's e-mail and Grover's testimony were important in regard to whether or not Clementi \"reasonably believed he was being intimidated\".",
"Observers who commented after the prosecution rested its case, and before the defense brought its arguments, differed on the strength of the prosecution's case.",
"Susan Abraham, a law professor and former public defender, said that she believed that the prosecution had established both the invasion of privacy and the bias intimidation charges.",
"There is \"no question\", she said, that Clementi believed he was selected because of his sexual orientation, and some of Ravi's messages referring to gays might also be evidence of intent; she noted that, under the New Jersey bias intimidation law, the prosecution does not have to prove a biased intent, but only a reasonable belief by the victim that he was targeted because of sexual orientation.",
"Abraham also guessed that one defense argument would be that, when Ravi admitted to violating privacy in his statements to the police, he did not understand the legal meaning of \"invasion of privacy\" and made the statement under duress.",
"After the indictments, attorney Edward Weinstein had said that the prosecution case might be weak, but after hearing the prosecution case, he concluded that \"The defense has an extremely large burden; the prosecution put on a good case.\"",
"He noted that Ravi's Twitter messages, revealed during the trial, showed that \"he was not just a mischievous kid pulling a prank\", though he also felt that the outcome of the case \"totally remains to be seen\".\nJack Levin, an authority on hate crimes, was skeptical of the case for bias intimidation, saying of Ravi that \"it becomes difficult to determine whether the motivation was due to sexual orientation or some other conflicts between the roommates that have nothing to do with sexual orientation\", although he also noted that the position of the camera had raised doubts about Ravi's contention that he was primarily concerned about protecting his possessions.",
"In a news analysis published shortly before the verdict was announced, Chris Cuomo of ABC News wrote that \"for the most part, the consensus of reporters and legal analysts following the trial is that the state's hate crime charges are thin, at best.",
"\"",
"After the first morning of the defense presentation on March 9, 2012, trial attorney Brian Claypool viewed the overall defense strategy as effective, but he questioned defense techniques in trying to show that Ravi was not anti-gay.",
"The character witnesses called, he said, were ineffective because the prosecution showed there was \"no foundation\" for them to say that Ravi was not anti-gay.",
"Claypool said that the defense theme (of Ravi's not having bias) should have been pursued with numerous additional witnesses.",
"He also said that Ravi himself needed to testify to show he had no bias against gays and to explain the inconsistencies in his recorded interview with the police.",
"John Fahy, former Bergen County District Attorney, said after closing arguments that both the defense and prosecution did a \"very good job\".",
"In regard to the invasion of privacy charge, Fahy said the defense was effective in raising reasonable doubt by characterizing the incidents as a \"frolic\" of \"first-year college students\".",
"Regarding bias intimidation, Fahy said that there was \"not a lot of proof\" that the viewing was done because Clementi was gay.",
"In regard to obstruction of justice, Fahy noted that a few texts by Ravi were \"very difficult to explain\".",
"Fahy said that the police interview revealed a \"kid not used to being interrogated\" and that the interview contained \"one big lie\" by Ravi—that in the second (September 21) incident he had \"turned the computer off and later turned it on.",
"\"",
"After 12 hours of deliberations over two and a half days, a jury of 12 members and three alternates reached a verdict on March 16, 2012.",
"Ravi was found guilty of invasion of privacy, hindering apprehension, witness tampering, and all four of the bias intimidation counts.",
"In regard to the viewing on September 19, the jury concluded that Ravi did not act with the purpose to intimidate either Clementi or his guest because of their sexual orientation, but that Clementi was intimidated and reasonably believed that he had been targeted because of his sexual orientation.",
"In regard to the planned viewing on September 21 and Ravi's encouragement of his Twitter followers to watch, the jury concluded that Ravi acted with the purpose to intimidate, with the knowledge that intimidation would occur, and with the result that Clementi was intimidated and reasonably believed that he was targeted because of sexual orientation.",
"Ravi was acquitted of all bias charges against M.B.",
"Five days after the verdict, Ravi said in an interview:\nIn another interview, he said:\nOn March 23, Joseph Clementi, Tyler's father, said that the family believed that the jury had reached the \"correct verdict,\" which \"was based on the facts and the evidence\"; the defense explanation, he added, \"was simply not believable\".",
"\"I have said all along we were looking for justice and accountability.",
"I trusted the Courts and the State of New Jersey to get this right ... and they did.",
"\"\nClementi's guest, identified only as MB at the trial, reacted to the verdict on March 16, 2012.",
"He said, \"I had hoped for all concerned that a trial could have been avoided, but that was not my choice.",
"It was Mr. Ravi's decision, and now he will have to live with it.\"",
"MB's attorney said that the jury had been thorough and that the jury was correct in not finding MB to be the victim of a bias crime since the Rutgers students \"didn't know anything about our client\".",
"The trial and the verdict sparked nationwide debate on the validity and efficacy of the New Jersey hate crime statute and similar laws.",
"Marcellus A. McRae, a former federal prosecutor uninvolved in the case, hailed the guilty verdicts as \"a watershed moment, because it says youth is not immunity\".",
"Steven Goldstein, the chairman of a New Jersey equal rights advocacy group, said that \"This verdict sends the important message that a 'kids will be kids' defense is no excuse to bully another student.\"",
"Louis Raveson, a professor of criminal and civil trial litigation at Rutgers School of Law-Newark, said that bias intimidation criteria had been met: \"I think the statute correctly predicted this kind of crime and ... is being used appropriately.",
"\"\nGlenn Berman, the judge who presided over Ravi's trial, said that the New Jersey statute was \"muddled\" and that he would have written it differently.",
"The editorial board of the Newark newspaper, \"The Star-Ledger\", criticized both the law and its application, arguing that Ravi's crime was not malicious, the law was unconstitutional, and the application of the law against Ravi was a \"huge overreach\".",
"\"Washington Post\" columnist Richard Cohen criticized Ravi for \"bullying (via webcam)\", but argued that hate crime laws unfairly punish an individual for thought or speech, and therefore erode civil liberties.",
"In a \"New York Times\" op-ed piece, journalist Emily Bazelon argued that, while Ravi's invasion of Clementi's privacy \"should be out of bounds on a college campus,\" the punishment he faced was disproportionate to that crime, and that hate crime laws were not intended for these types of actions.",
"On May 21, 2012, Judge Glenn Berman sentenced Ravi to 30 days in jail, 3 years' probation, 300 hours of community service, a $10,000 fine, and counseling on cyberbullying and alternate lifestyles.",
"\"It wasn't my deal,\" the judge said.",
"\"It was the state's.\"",
"Lead prosecutor Julia McClure had sought a five-year prison term and on May 23, 2012 filed a motion appealing the sentence.",
"On May 30, 2012, Ravi waived his right to remain free during the appeals process and began his jail term at the Middlesex County Adult Corrections Center in North Brunswick, New Jersey on May 31, 2012.",
"Ravi was released from jail on June 19, 2012, after serving 20 days of his 30-day term, with 5 days of credit for good behavior and 5 days of work credits.",
"Ravi is a permanent resident of the United States who immigrated at age 6.",
"Clementi's family, M.B., and the judge all recommended Ravi not be deported.",
"In June 2012, Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials announced that the convictions were not serious enough to seek deportation.",
"Judge Berman said that Ravi's \"'letter of apology' to the pre-sentence people\" was \"unimpressive\" and \"didn't even mention the seven cover-up charges\".",
"He said it was \"ironic\" that Ravi's letter \"doesn't mention M.B. as if he doesn't exist\", yet M.B. had in his letter offered to write a letter to help Ravi avoid deportation.",
"Ravi declined the opportunity to speak at the sentencing hearing and was reprimanded by Judge Berman for not having publicly apologized: \"I heard this jury say guilty 288 times—24 questions, 12 jurors, that's the multiplication.",
"And I haven't heard you apologize once.\"\nOn May 29, 2012, Ravi released the following statement:\nClementi's parents responded:",
"Both the prosecutors and Ravi filed separate appeals.",
"In February 2016, Ravi asked the courts to overturn his convictions.",
"On September 9, 2016, the Superior Court of New Jersey, Appellate Division overturned the conviction after the New Jersey Supreme Court ruled that the bias intimidation laws under which Ravi had been convicted were unconstitutional.",
"The appeals court ordered that Ravi could be re-tried on ten other charges.",
"Ravi accepted a plea deal on October 27, 2016, and pleaded guilty to one count of attempted invasion of privacy, a third-degree felony.",
"He was sentenced to time already served and fines paid, and the remaining charges against him were dropped."

New Jersey v. Dharun Ravi | [
"Before September 17, 2010, Clementi had chatted online with a man whose identity has not been made public.",
"While Ravi was out for the evening on September 17, the man came to Clementi's dorm room for the first time.",
"On the nights of September 19 and 21, Clementi texted with Ravi about using their room for the evening.",
"On the first occasion, Ravi met Clementi's male friend, and Clementi said that the two wanted to be alone for the evening.",
"In conversations with Wei and later text messages with friends, Ravi expressed distrust of the stranger that Clementi brought into the room, describing him as \"an older, shabbier-looking guy\".",
"Ravi said he was worried about theft and that he left the computer in a state where he could view the webcam due to those concerns.",
"However, other witnesses testified that Ravi said he also wanted to confirm that Clementi was gay.",
"Ravi and Wei viewed the video stream via iChat for a few seconds, seeing Clementi and his guest kissing.",
"Ravi posted to his 150 Twitter followers, \"Roommate asked for the room till midnight.",
"I went into molly's room and turned on my webcam.",
"I saw him making out with a dude.",
"Yay.\"",
"Soon after, Wei began an online chat in which she said that the two men had been \"kissing [each other] right now / like THEY WERE GROPING EACH OTHER.\"",
"Later, Wei turned on the camera for another view with four others in the room, though Ravi was not there.",
"During this second viewing, Wei and others saw Clementi and his guest kissing with their shirts off and their pants on.",
"Clementi followed Ravi on Twitter.",
"Although Clementi could not see Ravi's phone text messages, he saw his Twitter postings the next day.",
"Clementi viewed Ravi's Twitter posts 38 times following the first webcam viewing.",
"Late on September 20, Clementi wrote to a friend online that, initially, he was not really bothered by what Ravi had seen in the first, brief viewing, primarily due to its extreme brevity.",
"According to a Rutgers employee, at about 4 a.m. on September 21, after further conversations online, Clementi sent an online request for a single room because his \"roommate used webcam to spy on me.",
"\"",
"On September 21, Ravi sent a friend a series of text messages, including messages saying, \"Yeah, keep the gays away\" and \"People are having a viewing party with a bottle of Bacardi and beer in this kid's room for my roommate\" along with directions on how to view it remotely.",
"At 6:39 p.m., Ravi tweeted, \"Anyone with iChat, I dare you to video chat me between the hours of 9:30 and 12.",

"He told me he had done it before that date\" and \"that he was planning on doing it again.",
"That night.\"",
"When Clementi returned to his room, he noticed the camera and texted a friend saying he had unplugged Ravi's powerstrip to prevent further video streaming during his date.",
"Ravi has said that he had changed his mind regarding the broadcast and disabled the camera himself by putting the computer in sleep mode.",
"On September 21, Clementi complained to a resident assistant and two other officials that Ravi had used a webcam to videostream part of Clementi's private sexual encounter with another man.",
"The resident assistant testified at trial that Clementi appeared shaky and uncomfortable when they met around 11 p.m., and in his official report of the meeting, the resident assistant said that Clementi requested both a room change and punishment for Ravi.",
"In a formal e-mail request to the resident assistant made after the meeting, Clementi described the two viewing incidents, quoted from Ravi's Twitter postings, and wrote \"I feel that my privacy has been violated and I am extremely uncomfortable sharing a room with someone who would act in this wildly inappropriate manner.\"",
"Clementi wrote in detail on the Just Us Boys and Yahoo!",
"message boards about complaints he filed through university channels about his roommate.",
"His posts indicated that he did not want to share a room with Ravi after he learned about the first incident and then discovered that Ravi invited his Twitter followers to watch a second sexual encounter.",

"On September 28, 2010, Dharun Ravi and Molly Wei were charged with four and two counts of invasion of privacy, respectively, for their roles in the webcam spying incidents on September 19, 2010 and September 21, 2010.",
"Under New Jersey law, one commits a fourth-degree crime of invasion of privacy if one observes another person without that person's consent under circumstances in which a \"reasonable person would know that another may expose intimate parts or may engage in sexual penetration or sexual contact.\"",
"A third-degree crime is committed if one discloses a \"reproduction of the image\" of the observed person.",
"Ravi was charged with both third- and fourth-degree invasion of privacy.",
"Soon after these charges were filed, there were calls from gay rights advocates and bloggers to include hate crimes charges against Ravi and Wei.\nBruce Kaplan, the prosecutor in the case, said \"now that two individuals have been charged with invasion of privacy, we will be making every effort to assess whether bias played a role in the incident, and, if so, we will bring appropriate charges.\"",
"On October 4, 2010, Kaplan stated that he did not think there would be enough evidence to charge Ravi and Wei with a hate crime.",
"After further investigation, the prosecution concluded that there was evidence supporting a hate crime charge against Ravi, dating to when Ravi first learned Clementi's name.",
"On April 20, 2011, a Middlesex County grand jury indicted Ravi on 15 counts, including bias intimidation, invasion of privacy, witness tampering, and evidence tampering.",
"The witness tampering charges were based on text messages Ravi sent to Wei, in which he tried to persuade her not to contradict what he had told police.",
"In these messages, Ravi said \"Did you tell them we did it on purpose?\", and \"Because I said we were just messing around with the camera.\"",
"Wei responded \"Omg dharun why didnt u talk to me first i told them everything\".",
"According to a prosecution expert witness, Ravi deleted almost 100 text messages between him and Wei and another high school friend, whom he had invited to view Clementi's second encounter with his guest.",
"A key aspect of the prosecution's evidence tampering charge was Ravi's deletion of two potentially incriminating postings: one on Twitter on September 19 in which he wrote that his roommate was \"making out with a dude.",
"Yay\", and one on September 21 in which he told his iChat followers \"dare you to video chat me\" during the time of Clementi's tryst.",
"He replaced the latter post with one that said \"don't you dare video chat me\" at the time of the tryst, stating that the first message was a draft.",
"Ravi was charged with third and fourth degree invasion of privacy.",
"Soon after the charges against Wei were made public, Wei's attorneys released a statement proclaiming her innocence, and a former New Jersey federal prosecutor commented that, \"there's no evidence of Ms. Wei doing anything.",
"I'm very curious as to why the prosecutor is holding her responsible in any way, shape, or form simply because Mr. Ravi was using her computer.",
"\"\nSteve Altman, Ravi's attorney, said, \"Nothing was transmitted beyond one computer and what was seen was only viewed for a matter of seconds.\"",
"Rubin Sinins, Wei's attorney, said, \"I'm unaware of any evidence of sexual contact.",
"The statute defining sexual contact refers to nudity and private parts, and, to my knowledge, nothing like that was seen.",
"I'm also unaware of any evidence that any video was recorded, reproduced or disseminated in any way.",

"Wei and the prosecutor reached a plea agreement on May 6, 2011.",
"Under the agreement, all charges against Wei would be dropped if Wei testified against Ravi and completed a three-year intervention program, including counseling and community service.",

"Ravi is a citizen of India living legally in the United States.",

"Ravi was represented during the trial by attorneys Steven Altman and Philip Nettl of the New Jersey criminal defense law firm Benedict & Altman.",
"The trial lasted 13 days with closing arguments ending on March 13, 2012.",
"In August 2011, Ravi's defense attorney requested a mistrial because the prosecution had not presented evidence to the grand jury which, he argued, would have cleared Ravi, and had presented other evidence in what he said was a misleading manner.",
"This evidence included documents that showed that Clementi had titled files on his computer \"Why does it have to be so painful\" and took photographs of the George Washington Bridge a month before entering Rutgers.",
"The judge did not grant Ravi's motion.",
"Ravi was not charged with a role in the suicide.<ref name=\"20/20 interview\"></ref>",
"On February 24, 2012, Assistant Prosecutor Julia McClure told jurors that Dharun Ravi acted to \"deprive\" Tyler Clementi of his \"privacy\" and \"dignity\" when he observed an intimate encounter of Clementi and later invited others to watch a second liaison of Clementi and his friend.",
"Ravi's actions were not, she emphasized, a \"prank\", \"accident\", or \"mistake\", but rather were \"intentional\", \"planned\", \"criminal\", and \"mean-spirited\".",
"She said Ravi was motivated by the fact that Clementi was homosexual: \"he sought to brand Tyler as different from everybody else\" and \"to set him up for contempt.\"",
"Later, she explained, Ravi tried to \"cover up the tracks\" of his actions by altering evidence.",
"Defense attorney Steven Altman said that Ravi's actions were those of an \"18-year-old boy\".",
"He argued that although these actions may have been \"immature\" and \"stupid\", they were not hateful, bigoted, or criminal.",
"\"There was no bullying,\" Altman emphasized.",
"Ravi never \"harassed\", \"ridiculed\", or even said \"anything bad\" about his roommate.",
"Moreover, Altman said that Ravi saw only a few seconds of hugging and that nobody \"transmitted\" or \"reproduced any image of anything\".",
"Wei testified that, shortly after 9 p.m. on September 19, 2010, Dharun Ravi came to Wei's room and within a few minutes he showed her how he could get live images from his room via an auto-accept feature of his computer's video chat.",
"Wei said that both she and Ravi were \"shocked\" when they saw Clementi and another man leaning against the bed kissing.",
"Wei said that she and Ravi viewed for only a few seconds, turned off the video stream, and initially agreed not to tell anyone, because it \"just felt weird\" and she felt it was wrong.",
"Several minutes later she chatted about the incident online.",
"Ravi later left the room to shower and Wei, within an hour of the initial viewing, accessed Ravi's webcam again, at the request of a friend, and briefly showed four other students.",
"Wei said the scene was the same as that before, except that the men's shirts were off.",
"According to one student, the two men were turned so one could not see their faces.",
"Wei and other students testified that Ravi had told them that he was concerned about his possessions.",
"Two of these students testified that Ravi also said he wanted to confirm that his roommate was gay.",
"Several students described Clementi's guest as \"shabby\" or \"shady\".",
"The prosecution argued that only Ravi and one other student had seen Clementi's guest in person and that the other student said the guest was not \"anything out of the ordinary\" and, while older, was \"not obscenely old\".",
"None of the students said that Ravi had expressed any animosity towards gays.",
"One student said that Ravi had called Clementi \"nice\", and another said that Ravi had told him he had a gay friend.",
"Wei said that Ravi mentioned that Clementi was gay, but \"didn't make a big deal out of it\".",
"On March 2, 2012, Tyler Clementi's guest, M.B., testified for more than five hours.",
"To protect his privacy as a possible crime victim, the judge ordered that media could show only his hands and could not record him—courtroom restrictions that were a \"rare exception\" according to \"The New York Times\" account.",
"M.B.'s testimony was important, not only because he himself was an alleged victim, but because the defense had portrayed him as a suspicious character that prompted Ravi's actions.",
"According to former prosecutor John Fahy, it was also important for the prosecution to establish that sexual activity had occurred, and M.B. had to answer specific questions about the nature of that activity.",
"Kate Zernike of \"The New York Times\" described M.B. as having \"close-cropped hair\", not dressed as casually as on September 19, 2010, but his \"hair and bearing much the same\" as in the Rutgers dormitory surveillance camera photo.",
"She wrote that \"he did not look, as Mr. Ravi's friends have described him, 'scruffy' or 'shady'.\"",
"However, M.B. testified that he had not shaved the evening of the encounter.",
"According to M.B.'s testimony, he and Clementi met on a social network site and the September 19 meeting was the second of three dates.",
"M.B. said his relationship with Clementi was a \"good relationship\", which included continual texting and online chats, and that Clementi was \"happy\" when he last saw him.",
"M.B. said that during the September 19 visit he noticed a webcam pointed at Clementi's bed and thought the position \"was kind of strange\", although he did not think that anyone was actually watching.",
"In cross-examination, he noted he remembered this only when it later became relevant.",
"M.B. also said that when he lay in Clementi's bed, he heard people joking and laughing in the courtyard, and it \"seemed like the jokes were at somebody else's expense\".",
"When he left the room, there were about five students who \"seemed to be looking at me and it seemed kind of unsettling\".",
"Ravi's communications, both in person and in texts and tweets, were key evidence in regard to the September 21 incident.",
"The prosecution contended that on September 21 Ravi set up his webcam to view a second tryst of Clementi's and advertised it to friends and Twitter followers.",
"The viewing was thwarted, they argued, only because Clementi unplugged the computer.",
"Ravi said that his messages were made in a joking manner and that he later turned off the webcam so that no viewing would occur.",
"Tyler Clementi followed Ravi's Twitter messages, visiting Ravi's Twitter page 38 times on the two days before his suicide.",

"On September 20 Clementi saw the first message, which Ravi had made a few minutes after the September 19 viewing, and Clementi discussed it with friends.",
"Ravi wrote: \"Roommate asked for the room till midnight.",
"I went into Molly's room and turned on my webcam.",
"I saw him making out with a dude.",
"Yay.\"",
"The second saved message was sent by Ravi on September 21 (6:39 p.m.), after Clementi late that afternoon requested private use of the room for another tryst: \"Anyone with i-chat, I dare you to video chat me between 9:30 and 12.",

"I have it pointed at his bed.",
"And the monitor is off so he can't see you.",
"Be careful it could get nasty.\"",
"At 8:41, in another text conversation, Ravi told Huang that \"people are having a viewing party\" with rum and beer.",

"The first student said that Ravi encouraged him to text friends to watch Clementi's date and that Ravi used his computer to test the angle of the webcam so that it was pointed at Clementi's bed.",
"The second student said that after dinner Ravi \"hyped up\" his earlier \"dare you\" tweet, that Ravi used her computer to access his iChat, and that \"Tyler's side of the room came into view\" when the webcam was accessed.",
"The first student said that the next day he told Ravi that the webstream had not worked: \"Then I saw [Ravi] in the lounge and I said, 'Yo, it didn't work.'",
"And he said, 'Yeah, I have been getting that from a lot of people.'\"\nAt 9:15 p.m. Clementi saved a screenshot of Ravi's \"dare you to video chat me\" tweet.",

"At 9:33 Clementi told a friend online that he had turned off the power strip to Ravi's computer.",
"At 10:19 Clementi's guest arrived.",
"Ravi left for ultimate frisbee practice around 8:30–9:00 p.m.\nThe captain of the frisbee team testified that after practice, at 11 p.m., he, Ravi and others went to get takeout food at the dining hall and that Ravi said that \"he had set up a webcam of some sorts to capture images of his roommate\", had \"done it before,\" and that night \"was planning on doing it again\".",
"The student also testified that Ravi seemed uncomfortable with his roommate's being gay, but had said nothing explicitly \"disparaging\".",
"Shortly after 11 p.m. Ravi texted Clementi to see if he was still using the room.",
"At 11:48, Clementi texted Ravi that \"we're done.",
"\"\nIn an interview with investigators, Ravi said that on September 21 he had turned the webcam away from Clementi's bed.",
"A former university detective testified that, when he inspected the dorm room on Sept. 23, the webcam was \"angled directly at Tyler's bed\".",
"Only a portion of Clementi's requests for a room change were permitted to be seen by the jury.",
"After discussing with friends Ravi's first Twitter message (\"saw my roommate making out with a dude\"), Clementi, at 3:55 a.m. on September 21, filed a request on the Rutgers housing website; he wrote, \"roommate used webcam to spy on me/want a single room.\"",
"The part about spying was ruled hearsay and not admissible.",
"Late on the evening of September 21, after seeing Ravi's \"dare you\" tweet and just before his meeting with M.B., Clementi visited a resident assistant, Rahi Grover.",
"Grover was not permitted to testify about what Clementi said, but did testify about Clementi's demeanor.",
"He said that Clementi's voice was \"a little shaky\" and that he appeared uncomfortable.",
"The judge allowed some parts of Grover's official report of the incident: \"Tyler is quite upset and feels uncomfortable.",
"Tyler prefers some sort of roommate switch ASAP and prefers some sort of punishment for Dharun Ravi.\"",
"Grover also included his own recommendation that a roommate change be made as soon as possible, and he offered Clementi a bed in his own room for that night, which Clementi declined.",
"Grover requested that Clementi later send him an e-mail to formalize the roommate change request, part of which was allowed as evidence.",
"In his e-mail (12:03 a.m.)",
"Clementi wrote: \"I feel like my privacy has been violated and I am extremely uncomfortable sharing a room with someone who would act in such a wildly inappropriate manner.\"",
"The judge ruled that \"wildly inappropriate\" be excluded from jury evidence since it was not a present sense impression but a description of past actions that Clementi had deliberated on.",
"According to former prosecutor John Fahy, Clementi's e-mail and Grover's testimony were important in regard to whether or not Clementi \"reasonably believed he was being intimidated\".",
"Observers who commented after the prosecution rested its case, and before the defense brought its arguments, differed on the strength of the prosecution's case.",
"Susan Abraham, a law professor and former public defender, said that she believed that the prosecution had established both the invasion of privacy and the bias intimidation charges.",
"There is \"no question\", she said, that Clementi believed he was selected because of his sexual orientation, and some of Ravi's messages referring to gays might also be evidence of intent; she noted that, under the New Jersey bias intimidation law, the prosecution does not have to prove a biased intent, but only a reasonable belief by the victim that he was targeted because of sexual orientation.",
"Abraham also guessed that one defense argument would be that, when Ravi admitted to violating privacy in his statements to the police, he did not understand the legal meaning of \"invasion of privacy\" and made the statement under duress.",
"After the indictments, attorney Edward Weinstein had said that the prosecution case might be weak, but after hearing the prosecution case, he concluded that \"The defense has an extremely large burden; the prosecution put on a good case.\"",
"He noted that Ravi's Twitter messages, revealed during the trial, showed that \"he was not just a mischievous kid pulling a prank\", though he also felt that the outcome of the case \"totally remains to be seen\".\nJack Levin, an authority on hate crimes, was skeptical of the case for bias intimidation, saying of Ravi that \"it becomes difficult to determine whether the motivation was due to sexual orientation or some other conflicts between the roommates that have nothing to do with sexual orientation\", although he also noted that the position of the camera had raised doubts about Ravi's contention that he was primarily concerned about protecting his possessions.",
"In a news analysis published shortly before the verdict was announced, Chris Cuomo of ABC News wrote that \"for the most part, the consensus of reporters and legal analysts following the trial is that the state's hate crime charges are thin, at best.",
"\"",
"After the first morning of the defense presentation on March 9, 2012, trial attorney Brian Claypool viewed the overall defense strategy as effective, but he questioned defense techniques in trying to show that Ravi was not anti-gay.",
"The character witnesses called, he said, were ineffective because the prosecution showed there was \"no foundation\" for them to say that Ravi was not anti-gay.",
"Claypool said that the defense theme (of Ravi's not having bias) should have been pursued with numerous additional witnesses.",
"He also said that Ravi himself needed to testify to show he had no bias against gays and to explain the inconsistencies in his recorded interview with the police.",
"John Fahy, former Bergen County District Attorney, said after closing arguments that both the defense and prosecution did a \"very good job\".",
"In regard to the invasion of privacy charge, Fahy said the defense was effective in raising reasonable doubt by characterizing the incidents as a \"frolic\" of \"first-year college students\".",
"Regarding bias intimidation, Fahy said that there was \"not a lot of proof\" that the viewing was done because Clementi was gay.",
"In regard to obstruction of justice, Fahy noted that a few texts by Ravi were \"very difficult to explain\".",
"Fahy said that the police interview revealed a \"kid not used to being interrogated\" and that the interview contained \"one big lie\" by Ravi—that in the second (September 21) incident he had \"turned the computer off and later turned it on.",

"After 12 hours of deliberations over two and a half days, a jury of 12 members and three alternates reached a verdict on March 16, 2012.",

"In regard to the planned viewing on September 21 and Ravi's encouragement of his Twitter followers to watch, the jury concluded that Ravi acted with the purpose to intimidate, with the knowledge that intimidation would occur, and with the result that Clementi was intimidated and reasonably believed that he was targeted because of sexual orientation.",
"Ravi was acquitted of all bias charges against M.B.",
"Five days after the verdict, Ravi said in an interview:\nIn another interview, he said:\nOn March 23, Joseph Clementi, Tyler's father, said that the family believed that the jury had reached the \"correct verdict,\" which \"was based on the facts and the evidence\"; the defense explanation, he added, \"was simply not believable\".",
"\"I have said all along we were looking for justice and accountability.",

"It was Mr. Ravi's decision, and now he will have to live with it.\"",
"MB's attorney said that the jury had been thorough and that the jury was correct in not finding MB to be the victim of a bias crime since the Rutgers students \"didn't know anything about our client\".",

"Marcellus A. McRae, a former federal prosecutor uninvolved in the case, hailed the guilty verdicts as \"a watershed moment, because it says youth is not immunity\".",
"Steven Goldstein, the chairman of a New Jersey equal rights advocacy group, said that \"This verdict sends the important message that a 'kids will be kids' defense is no excuse to bully another student.\"",
"Louis Raveson, a professor of criminal and civil trial litigation at Rutgers School of Law-Newark, said that bias intimidation criteria had been met: \"I think the statute correctly predicted this kind of crime and ... is being used appropriately.",
"\"\nGlenn Berman, the judge who presided over Ravi's trial, said that the New Jersey statute was \"muddled\" and that he would have written it differently.",
"The editorial board of the Newark newspaper, \"The Star-Ledger\", criticized both the law and its application, arguing that Ravi's crime was not malicious, the law was unconstitutional, and the application of the law against Ravi was a \"huge overreach\".",
"\"Washington Post\" columnist Richard Cohen criticized Ravi for \"bullying (via webcam)\", but argued that hate crime laws unfairly punish an individual for thought or speech, and therefore erode civil liberties.",
"In a \"New York Times\" op-ed piece, journalist Emily Bazelon argued that, while Ravi's invasion of Clementi's privacy \"should be out of bounds on a college campus,\" the punishment he faced was disproportionate to that crime, and that hate crime laws were not intended for these types of actions.",
"On May 21, 2012, Judge Glenn Berman sentenced Ravi to 30 days in jail, 3 years' probation, 300 hours of community service, a $10,000 fine, and counseling on cyberbullying and alternate lifestyles.",

"Judge Berman said that Ravi's \"'letter of apology' to the pre-sentence people\" was \"unimpressive\" and \"didn't even mention the seven cover-up charges\".",
"He said it was \"ironic\" that Ravi's letter \"doesn't mention M.B. as if he doesn't exist\", yet M.B. had in his letter offered to write a letter to help Ravi avoid deportation.",
"Ravi declined the opportunity to speak at the sentencing hearing and was reprimanded by Judge Berman for not having publicly apologized: \"I heard this jury say guilty 288 times—24 questions, 12 jurors, that's the multiplication.",

"Ravi accepted a plea deal on October 27, 2016, and pleaded guilty to one count of attempted invasion of privacy, a third-degree felony.",

"On the nights of September 19 and 21, Clementi texted with Ravi about using their room for the evening.",
"On the first occasion, Ravi met Clementi's male friend, and Clementi said that the two wanted to be alone for the evening.",
"In conversations with Wei and later text messages with friends, Ravi expressed distrust of the stranger that Clementi brought into the room, describing him as \"an older, shabbier-looking guy\".",
"Ravi said he was worried about theft and that he left the computer in a state where he could view the webcam due to those concerns.",
"However, other witnesses testified that Ravi said he also wanted to confirm that Clementi was gay.",
"Ravi and Wei viewed the video stream via iChat for a few seconds, seeing Clementi and his guest kissing.",
"Ravi posted to his 150 Twitter followers, \"Roommate asked for the room till midnight.",
"I went into molly's room and turned on my webcam.",
"I saw him making out with a dude.",
"Yay.\"",

"Under New Jersey law, one commits a fourth-degree crime of invasion of privacy if one observes another person without that person's consent under circumstances in which a \"reasonable person would know that another may expose intimate parts or may engage in sexual penetration or sexual contact.\"",
"A third-degree crime is committed if one discloses a \"reproduction of the image\" of the observed person.",
"Ravi was charged with both third- and fourth-degree invasion of privacy.",
"Soon after these charges were filed, there were calls from gay rights advocates and bloggers to include hate crimes charges against Ravi and Wei.\nBruce Kaplan, the prosecutor in the case, said \"now that two individuals have been charged with invasion of privacy, we will be making every effort to assess whether bias played a role in the incident, and, if so, we will bring appropriate charges.\"",
"On October 4, 2010, Kaplan stated that he did not think there would be enough evidence to charge Ravi and Wei with a hate crime.",
"After further investigation, the prosecution concluded that there was evidence supporting a hate crime charge against Ravi, dating to when Ravi first learned Clementi's name.",
"On April 20, 2011, a Middlesex County grand jury indicted Ravi on 15 counts, including bias intimidation, invasion of privacy, witness tampering, and evidence tampering.",
"The witness tampering charges were based on text messages Ravi sent to Wei, in which he tried to persuade her not to contradict what he had told police.",
"In these messages, Ravi said \"Did you tell them we did it on purpose?\", and \"Because I said we were just messing around with the camera.\"",
"Wei responded \"Omg dharun why didnt u talk to me first i told them everything\".",
"According to a prosecution expert witness, Ravi deleted almost 100 text messages between him and Wei and another high school friend, whom he had invited to view Clementi's second encounter with his guest.",
"A key aspect of the prosecution's evidence tampering charge was Ravi's deletion of two potentially incriminating postings: one on Twitter on September 19 in which he wrote that his roommate was \"making out with a dude.",
"Yay\", and one on September 21 in which he told his iChat followers \"dare you to video chat me\" during the time of Clementi's tryst.",
"He replaced the latter post with one that said \"don't you dare video chat me\" at the time of the tryst, stating that the first message was a draft.",
"Ravi was charged with third and fourth degree invasion of privacy.",
"Soon after the charges against Wei were made public, Wei's attorneys released a statement proclaiming her innocence, and a former New Jersey federal prosecutor commented that, \"there's no evidence of Ms. Wei doing anything.",
"I'm very curious as to why the prosecutor is holding her responsible in any way, shape, or form simply because Mr. Ravi was using her computer.",
"\"\nSteve Altman, Ravi's attorney, said, \"Nothing was transmitted beyond one computer and what was seen was only viewed for a matter of seconds.\"",
"Rubin Sinins, Wei's attorney, said, \"I'm unaware of any evidence of sexual contact.",

"The trial lasted 13 days with closing arguments ending on March 13, 2012.",
"In August 2011, Ravi's defense attorney requested a mistrial because the prosecution had not presented evidence to the grand jury which, he argued, would have cleared Ravi, and had presented other evidence in what he said was a misleading manner.",
"This evidence included documents that showed that Clementi had titled files on his computer \"Why does it have to be so painful\" and took photographs of the George Washington Bridge a month before entering Rutgers.",
"The judge did not grant Ravi's motion.",
"Ravi was not charged with a role in the suicide.<ref name=\"20/20 interview\"></ref>",

"Ravi's actions were not, she emphasized, a \"prank\", \"accident\", or \"mistake\", but rather were \"intentional\", \"planned\", \"criminal\", and \"mean-spirited\".",
"She said Ravi was motivated by the fact that Clementi was homosexual: \"he sought to brand Tyler as different from everybody else\" and \"to set him up for contempt.\"",
"Later, she explained, Ravi tried to \"cover up the tracks\" of his actions by altering evidence.",
"Defense attorney Steven Altman said that Ravi's actions were those of an \"18-year-old boy\".",
"He argued that although these actions may have been \"immature\" and \"stupid\", they were not hateful, bigoted, or criminal.",
"\"There was no bullying,\" Altman emphasized.",
"Ravi never \"harassed\", \"ridiculed\", or even said \"anything bad\" about his roommate.",
"Moreover, Altman said that Ravi saw only a few seconds of hugging and that nobody \"transmitted\" or \"reproduced any image of anything\".",
"Wei testified that, shortly after 9 p.m. on September 19, 2010, Dharun Ravi came to Wei's room and within a few minutes he showed her how he could get live images from his room via an auto-accept feature of his computer's video chat.",
"Wei said that both she and Ravi were \"shocked\" when they saw Clementi and another man leaning against the bed kissing.",
"Wei said that she and Ravi viewed for only a few seconds, turned off the video stream, and initially agreed not to tell anyone, because it \"just felt weird\" and she felt it was wrong.",
"Several minutes later she chatted about the incident online.",
"Ravi later left the room to shower and Wei, within an hour of the initial viewing, accessed Ravi's webcam again, at the request of a friend, and briefly showed four other students.",

"Wei said that Ravi mentioned that Clementi was gay, but \"didn't make a big deal out of it\".",
"On March 2, 2012, Tyler Clementi's guest, M.B., testified for more than five hours.",
"To protect his privacy as a possible crime victim, the judge ordered that media could show only his hands and could not record him—courtroom restrictions that were a \"rare exception\" according to \"The New York Times\" account.",
"M.B.'s testimony was important, not only because he himself was an alleged victim, but because the defense had portrayed him as a suspicious character that prompted Ravi's actions.",
"According to former prosecutor John Fahy, it was also important for the prosecution to establish that sexual activity had occurred, and M.B. had to answer specific questions about the nature of that activity.",
"Kate Zernike of \"The New York Times\" described M.B. as having \"close-cropped hair\", not dressed as casually as on September 19, 2010, but his \"hair and bearing much the same\" as in the Rutgers dormitory surveillance camera photo.",
"She wrote that \"he did not look, as Mr. Ravi's friends have described him, 'scruffy' or 'shady'.\"",

"M.B. said his relationship with Clementi was a \"good relationship\", which included continual texting and online chats, and that Clementi was \"happy\" when he last saw him.",
"M.B. said that during the September 19 visit he noticed a webcam pointed at Clementi's bed and thought the position \"was kind of strange\", although he did not think that anyone was actually watching.",
"In cross-examination, he noted he remembered this only when it later became relevant.",
"M.B. also said that when he lay in Clementi's bed, he heard people joking and laughing in the courtyard, and it \"seemed like the jokes were at somebody else's expense\".",
"When he left the room, there were about five students who \"seemed to be looking at me and it seemed kind of unsettling\".",
"Ravi's communications, both in person and in texts and tweets, were key evidence in regard to the September 21 incident.",
"The prosecution contended that on September 21 Ravi set up his webcam to view a second tryst of Clementi's and advertised it to friends and Twitter followers.",
"The viewing was thwarted, they argued, only because Clementi unplugged the computer.",

"After discussing with friends Ravi's first Twitter message (\"saw my roommate making out with a dude\"), Clementi, at 3:55 a.m. on September 21, filed a request on the Rutgers housing website; he wrote, \"roommate used webcam to spy on me/want a single room.\"",
"The part about spying was ruled hearsay and not admissible.",
"Late on the evening of September 21, after seeing Ravi's \"dare you\" tweet and just before his meeting with M.B., Clementi visited a resident assistant, Rahi Grover.",
"Grover was not permitted to testify about what Clementi said, but did testify about Clementi's demeanor.",
"He said that Clementi's voice was \"a little shaky\" and that he appeared uncomfortable.",
"The judge allowed some parts of Grover's official report of the incident: \"Tyler is quite upset and feels uncomfortable.",
"Tyler prefers some sort of roommate switch ASAP and prefers some sort of punishment for Dharun Ravi.\"",
"Grover also included his own recommendation that a roommate change be made as soon as possible, and he offered Clementi a bed in his own room for that night, which Clementi declined.",
"Grover requested that Clementi later send him an e-mail to formalize the roommate change request, part of which was allowed as evidence.",
"In his e-mail (12:03 a.m.)",
"Clementi wrote: \"I feel like my privacy has been violated and I am extremely uncomfortable sharing a room with someone who would act in such a wildly inappropriate manner.\"",
"The judge ruled that \"wildly inappropriate\" be excluded from jury evidence since it was not a present sense impression but a description of past actions that Clementi had deliberated on.",
"According to former prosecutor John Fahy, Clementi's e-mail and Grover's testimony were important in regard to whether or not Clementi \"reasonably believed he was being intimidated\".",
"Observers who commented after the prosecution rested its case, and before the defense brought its arguments, differed on the strength of the prosecution's case.",
"Susan Abraham, a law professor and former public defender, said that she believed that the prosecution had established both the invasion of privacy and the bias intimidation charges.",
"There is \"no question\", she said, that Clementi believed he was selected because of his sexual orientation, and some of Ravi's messages referring to gays might also be evidence of intent; she noted that, under the New Jersey bias intimidation law, the prosecution does not have to prove a biased intent, but only a reasonable belief by the victim that he was targeted because of sexual orientation.",
"Abraham also guessed that one defense argument would be that, when Ravi admitted to violating privacy in his statements to the police, he did not understand the legal meaning of \"invasion of privacy\" and made the statement under duress.",
"After the indictments, attorney Edward Weinstein had said that the prosecution case might be weak, but after hearing the prosecution case, he concluded that \"The defense has an extremely large burden; the prosecution put on a good case.\"",
"He noted that Ravi's Twitter messages, revealed during the trial, showed that \"he was not just a mischievous kid pulling a prank\", though he also felt that the outcome of the case \"totally remains to be seen\".\nJack Levin, an authority on hate crimes, was skeptical of the case for bias intimidation, saying of Ravi that \"it becomes difficult to determine whether the motivation was due to sexual orientation or some other conflicts between the roommates that have nothing to do with sexual orientation\", although he also noted that the position of the camera had raised doubts about Ravi's contention that he was primarily concerned about protecting his possessions.",
"In a news analysis published shortly before the verdict was announced, Chris Cuomo of ABC News wrote that \"for the most part, the consensus of reporters and legal analysts following the trial is that the state's hate crime charges are thin, at best.",
"\"",
"After the first morning of the defense presentation on March 9, 2012, trial attorney Brian Claypool viewed the overall defense strategy as effective, but he questioned defense techniques in trying to show that Ravi was not anti-gay.",
"The character witnesses called, he said, were ineffective because the prosecution showed there was \"no foundation\" for them to say that Ravi was not anti-gay.",
"Claypool said that the defense theme (of Ravi's not having bias) should have been pursued with numerous additional witnesses.",
"He also said that Ravi himself needed to testify to show he had no bias against gays and to explain the inconsistencies in his recorded interview with the police.",
"John Fahy, former Bergen County District Attorney, said after closing arguments that both the defense and prosecution did a \"very good job\".",
"In regard to the invasion of privacy charge, Fahy said the defense was effective in raising reasonable doubt by characterizing the incidents as a \"frolic\" of \"first-year college students\".",
"Regarding bias intimidation, Fahy said that there was \"not a lot of proof\" that the viewing was done because Clementi was gay.",
"In regard to obstruction of justice, Fahy noted that a few texts by Ravi were \"very difficult to explain\".",

"\"\nGlenn Berman, the judge who presided over Ravi's trial, said that the New Jersey statute was \"muddled\" and that he would have written it differently.",
"The editorial board of the Newark newspaper, \"The Star-Ledger\", criticized both the law and its application, arguing that Ravi's crime was not malicious, the law was unconstitutional, and the application of the law against Ravi was a \"huge overreach\".",
"\"Washington Post\" columnist Richard Cohen criticized Ravi for \"bullying (via webcam)\", but argued that hate crime laws unfairly punish an individual for thought or speech, and therefore erode civil liberties.",
"In a \"New York Times\" op-ed piece, journalist Emily Bazelon argued that, while Ravi's invasion of Clementi's privacy \"should be out of bounds on a college campus,\" the punishment he faced was disproportionate to that crime, and that hate crime laws were not intended for these types of actions.",
"On May 21, 2012, Judge Glenn Berman sentenced Ravi to 30 days in jail, 3 years' probation, 300 hours of community service, a $10,000 fine, and counseling on cyberbullying and alternate lifestyles.",

"While Ravi was out for the evening on September 17, the man came to Clementi's dorm room for the first time.",
"On the nights of September 19 and 21, Clementi texted with Ravi about using their room for the evening.",
"On the first occasion, Ravi met Clementi's male friend, and Clementi said that the two wanted to be alone for the evening.",
"In conversations with Wei and later text messages with friends, Ravi expressed distrust of the stranger that Clementi brought into the room, describing him as \"an older, shabbier-looking guy\".",
"Ravi said he was worried about theft and that he left the computer in a state where he could view the webcam due to those concerns.",
"However, other witnesses testified that Ravi said he also wanted to confirm that Clementi was gay.",
"Ravi and Wei viewed the video stream via iChat for a few seconds, seeing Clementi and his guest kissing.",
"Ravi posted to his 150 Twitter followers, \"Roommate asked for the room till midnight.",
"I went into molly's room and turned on my webcam.",
"I saw him making out with a dude.",
"Yay.\"",
"Soon after, Wei began an online chat in which she said that the two men had been \"kissing [each other] right now / like THEY WERE GROPING EACH OTHER.\"",
"Later, Wei turned on the camera for another view with four others in the room, though Ravi was not there.",
"During this second viewing, Wei and others saw Clementi and his guest kissing with their shirts off and their pants on.",
"Clementi followed Ravi on Twitter.",
"Although Clementi could not see Ravi's phone text messages, he saw his Twitter postings the next day.",
"Clementi viewed Ravi's Twitter posts 38 times following the first webcam viewing.",
"Late on September 20, Clementi wrote to a friend online that, initially, he was not really bothered by what Ravi had seen in the first, brief viewing, primarily due to its extreme brevity.",
"According to a Rutgers employee, at about 4 a.m. on September 21, after further conversations online, Clementi sent an online request for a single room because his \"roommate used webcam to spy on me.",
"\"",
"On September 21, Ravi sent a friend a series of text messages, including messages saying, \"Yeah, keep the gays away\" and \"People are having a viewing party with a bottle of Bacardi and beer in this kid's room for my roommate\" along with directions on how to view it remotely.",
"At 6:39 p.m., Ravi tweeted, \"Anyone with iChat, I dare you to video chat me between the hours of 9:30 and 12.",
"Yes, it's happening again.\"",
"Ravi had set up the webcam and initially pointed it towards Clementi's bed.",
"Ravi has stated that he realized that his \"joke\" was \"stupid\", and pointed the webcam towards his own bed before the planned viewing on September 21.",
"The police say, however, that it was subsequently found still pointed directly at Clementi's bed.",
"When Ravi's friend suggested that Clementi and his guest might use his bed, Ravi said \"My webcam checks my bed, hahaha.",
"\"\nAt trial, two Rutgers students testified that Ravi had spent part of that early evening in their dorm rooms, and used their computers to verify that the webcam was still focused on the bed.",
"The captain of Ravi's Ultimate Frisbee team testified that, after practice that evening, Ravi \"told me he had set up a webcam of some sort to capture images of his roommate.",
"He told me he had done it before that date\" and \"that he was planning on doing it again.",
"That night.\"",
"When Clementi returned to his room, he noticed the camera and texted a friend saying he had unplugged Ravi's powerstrip to prevent further video streaming during his date.",
"Ravi has said that he had changed his mind regarding the broadcast and disabled the camera himself by putting the computer in sleep mode.",
"On September 21, Clementi complained to a resident assistant and two other officials that Ravi had used a webcam to videostream part of Clementi's private sexual encounter with another man.",
"The resident assistant testified at trial that Clementi appeared shaky and uncomfortable when they met around 11 p.m., and in his official report of the meeting, the resident assistant said that Clementi requested both a room change and punishment for Ravi.",
"In a formal e-mail request to the resident assistant made after the meeting, Clementi described the two viewing incidents, quoted from Ravi's Twitter postings, and wrote \"I feel that my privacy has been violated and I am extremely uncomfortable sharing a room with someone who would act in this wildly inappropriate manner.\"",
"Clementi wrote in detail on the Just Us Boys and Yahoo!",
"message boards about complaints he filed through university channels about his roommate.",
"His posts indicated that he did not want to share a room with Ravi after he learned about the first incident and then discovered that Ravi invited his Twitter followers to watch a second sexual encounter.",
"\"He [the resident assistant] seemed to take it seriously,\" Clementi wrote in a post about 15 hours before his jump from the George Washington Bridge.",
"On September 22, a friend of Ravi asked what had happened to the live stream the night before.",
"Ravi responded, \"It got messed up and didn't work.\"",
"In the afternoon, the resident assistant confronted Ravi about Clementi's written complaint, in which he requested a room change.",
"Within a few hours, Clementi returned to his dorm room and he and Ravi were there for less than an hour.",
"On the evening of September 22, the day after Ravi's second webcam transmission attempt, Clementi left the dorm room, got food, and, around 6:30 p.m., headed toward the George Washington Bridge.",
"By 8:42 p.m., Clementi had made his way to the George Washington Bridge and posted from his cell phone on Facebook, \"Jumping off the gw bridge sorry.",
"\"\nFive minutes after Clementi posted on Facebook, Ravi sent the first of two final messages to Clementi.",
"The messages were sent after Ravi had been visited that afternoon by the resident assistant and told of Clementi's complaint:\n\"I want to explain what happened.",
"Sunday night when you requested to have someone over I didn't realize you wanted the room in private.",
"I went to Molly's room and I was showing her how I set up my computer so I can access it from anywhere.",
"I turned on my camera and saw you in the corner of the screen and I immediately closed it.",
"I felt uncomfortable and guilty of what happened.",
"Obviously I told people what occurred so they could give me advice.",
"Then Tuesday when you requested the room again I wanted to make sure what happened Sunday wouldn't happen again and not to video chat me from 930 to 12.",
"Just in case, I turned my camera away and put my computer to sleep so even if anyone tried it wouldn't work.",
"I wanted to make amends for Sunday night.",
"I'm sorry if you heard something distorted and disturbing",
"but I assure you all my actions were good natured.",
"\"\nThe prosecution noted that the apology came after Ravi learned he faced discipline by Rutgers.",
"Prosecutor Julia McClure said that the apology was one of \"many attempts\" by Ravi to \"dilute, cover up and explain, in other words to tamper with the facts and to fabricate evidence that could be looked on as favorable to him.",
"\"\nTen minutes later, Ravi texted again:",
"On September 28, 2010, Dharun Ravi and Molly Wei were charged with four and two counts of invasion of privacy, respectively, for their roles in the webcam spying incidents on September 19, 2010 and September 21, 2010.",
"Under New Jersey law, one commits a fourth-degree crime of invasion of privacy if one observes another person without that person's consent under circumstances in which a \"reasonable person would know that another may expose intimate parts or may engage in sexual penetration or sexual contact.\"",
"A third-degree crime is committed if one discloses a \"reproduction of the image\" of the observed person.",
"Ravi was charged with both third- and fourth-degree invasion of privacy.",
"Soon after these charges were filed, there were calls from gay rights advocates and bloggers to include hate crimes charges against Ravi and Wei.\nBruce Kaplan, the prosecutor in the case, said \"now that two individuals have been charged with invasion of privacy, we will be making every effort to assess whether bias played a role in the incident, and, if so, we will bring appropriate charges.\"",
"On October 4, 2010, Kaplan stated that he did not think there would be enough evidence to charge Ravi and Wei with a hate crime.",
"After further investigation, the prosecution concluded that there was evidence supporting a hate crime charge against Ravi, dating to when Ravi first learned Clementi's name.",
"On April 20, 2011, a Middlesex County grand jury indicted Ravi on 15 counts, including bias intimidation, invasion of privacy, witness tampering, and evidence tampering.",
"The witness tampering charges were based on text messages Ravi sent to Wei, in which he tried to persuade her not to contradict what he had told police.",
"In these messages, Ravi said \"Did you tell them we did it on purpose?\", and \"Because I said we were just messing around with the camera.\"",
"Wei responded \"Omg dharun why didnt u talk to me first i told them everything\".",
"According to a prosecution expert witness, Ravi deleted almost 100 text messages between him and Wei and another high school friend, whom he had invited to view Clementi's second encounter with his guest.",
"A key aspect of the prosecution's evidence tampering charge was Ravi's deletion of two potentially incriminating postings: one on Twitter on September 19 in which he wrote that his roommate was \"making out with a dude.",
"Yay\", and one on September 21 in which he told his iChat followers \"dare you to video chat me\" during the time of Clementi's tryst.",
"He replaced the latter post with one that said \"don't you dare video chat me\" at the time of the tryst, stating that the first message was a draft.",
"Ravi was charged with third and fourth degree invasion of privacy.",
"Soon after the charges against Wei were made public, Wei's attorneys released a statement proclaiming her innocence, and a former New Jersey federal prosecutor commented that, \"there's no evidence of Ms. Wei doing anything.",
"I'm very curious as to why the prosecutor is holding her responsible in any way, shape, or form simply because Mr. Ravi was using her computer.",
"\"\nSteve Altman, Ravi's attorney, said, \"Nothing was transmitted beyond one computer and what was seen was only viewed for a matter of seconds.\"",
"Rubin Sinins, Wei's attorney, said, \"I'm unaware of any evidence of sexual contact.",
"The statute defining sexual contact refers to nudity and private parts, and, to my knowledge, nothing like that was seen.",
"I'm also unaware of any evidence that any video was recorded, reproduced or disseminated in any way.",
"\"",
"Wei and the prosecutor reached a plea agreement on May 6, 2011.",
"Under the agreement, all charges against Wei would be dropped if Wei testified against Ravi and completed a three-year intervention program, including counseling and community service.",
"Clementi's parents \"supported leniency for Wei\", believing that her \"actions, although unlawful, were substantially different in their nature and their extent than the actions of Tyler's former roommate\" and that she \"was forthcoming and cooperative during the investigation.",
"\"\nIn December 2011, Ravi rejected a plea agreement in which he would not spend any time in jail and through which the prosecutor's office would assist him in fighting any potential deportation orders.",
"Ravi is a citizen of India living legally in the United States.",
"In rejecting the plea arrangement, Ravi's lawyer stated: \"Simple answer, simple principle ...",
"He's innocent.",
"He's not guilty.",
"That's why he rejected the plea.",
"\"",
"Ravi was represented during the trial by attorneys Steven Altman and Philip Nettl of the New Jersey criminal defense law firm Benedict & Altman.",
"The trial lasted 13 days with closing arguments ending on March 13, 2012.",
"In August 2011, Ravi's defense attorney requested a mistrial because the prosecution had not presented evidence to the grand jury which, he argued, would have cleared Ravi, and had presented other evidence in what he said was a misleading manner.",
"This evidence included documents that showed that Clementi had titled files on his computer \"Why does it have to be so painful\" and took photographs of the George Washington Bridge a month before entering Rutgers.",
"The judge did not grant Ravi's motion.",
"Ravi was not charged with a role in the suicide.<ref name=\"20/20 interview\"></ref>",
"On February 24, 2012, Assistant Prosecutor Julia McClure told jurors that Dharun Ravi acted to \"deprive\" Tyler Clementi of his \"privacy\" and \"dignity\" when he observed an intimate encounter of Clementi and later invited others to watch a second liaison of Clementi and his friend.",
"Ravi's actions were not, she emphasized, a \"prank\", \"accident\", or \"mistake\", but rather were \"intentional\", \"planned\", \"criminal\", and \"mean-spirited\".",
"She said Ravi was motivated by the fact that Clementi was homosexual: \"he sought to brand Tyler as different from everybody else\" and \"to set him up for contempt.\"",
"Later, she explained, Ravi tried to \"cover up the tracks\" of his actions by altering evidence.",
"Defense attorney Steven Altman said that Ravi's actions were those of an \"18-year-old boy\".",
"He argued that although these actions may have been \"immature\" and \"stupid\", they were not hateful, bigoted, or criminal.",
"\"There was no bullying,\" Altman emphasized.",
"Ravi never \"harassed\", \"ridiculed\", or even said \"anything bad\" about his roommate.",
"Moreover, Altman said that Ravi saw only a few seconds of hugging and that nobody \"transmitted\" or \"reproduced any image of anything\".",
"Wei testified that, shortly after 9 p.m. on September 19, 2010, Dharun Ravi came to Wei's room and within a few minutes he showed her how he could get live images from his room via an auto-accept feature of his computer's video chat.",
"Wei said that both she and Ravi were \"shocked\" when they saw Clementi and another man leaning against the bed kissing.",
"Wei said that she and Ravi viewed for only a few seconds, turned off the video stream, and initially agreed not to tell anyone, because it \"just felt weird\" and she felt it was wrong.",
"Several minutes later she chatted about the incident online.",
"Ravi later left the room to shower and Wei, within an hour of the initial viewing, accessed Ravi's webcam again, at the request of a friend, and briefly showed four other students.",
"Wei said the scene was the same as that before, except that the men's shirts were off.",
"According to one student, the two men were turned so one could not see their faces.",
"Wei and other students testified that Ravi had told them that he was concerned about his possessions.",
"Two of these students testified that Ravi also said he wanted to confirm that his roommate was gay.",
"Several students described Clementi's guest as \"shabby\" or \"shady\".",
"The prosecution argued that only Ravi and one other student had seen Clementi's guest in person and that the other student said the guest was not \"anything out of the ordinary\" and, while older, was \"not obscenely old\".",
"None of the students said that Ravi had expressed any animosity towards gays.",
"One student said that Ravi had called Clementi \"nice\", and another said that Ravi had told him he had a gay friend.",
"Wei said that Ravi mentioned that Clementi was gay, but \"didn't make a big deal out of it\".",
"On March 2, 2012, Tyler Clementi's guest, M.B., testified for more than five hours.",
"To protect his privacy as a possible crime victim, the judge ordered that media could show only his hands and could not record him—courtroom restrictions that were a \"rare exception\" according to \"The New York Times\" account.",
"M.B.'s testimony was important, not only because he himself was an alleged victim, but because the defense had portrayed him as a suspicious character that prompted Ravi's actions.",
"According to former prosecutor John Fahy, it was also important for the prosecution to establish that sexual activity had occurred, and M.B. had to answer specific questions about the nature of that activity.",
"Kate Zernike of \"The New York Times\" described M.B. as having \"close-cropped hair\", not dressed as casually as on September 19, 2010, but his \"hair and bearing much the same\" as in the Rutgers dormitory surveillance camera photo.",
"She wrote that \"he did not look, as Mr. Ravi's friends have described him, 'scruffy' or 'shady'.\"",
"However, M.B. testified that he had not shaved the evening of the encounter.",
"According to M.B.'s testimony, he and Clementi met on a social network site and the September 19 meeting was the second of three dates.",
"M.B. said his relationship with Clementi was a \"good relationship\", which included continual texting and online chats, and that Clementi was \"happy\" when he last saw him.",
"M.B. said that during the September 19 visit he noticed a webcam pointed at Clementi's bed and thought the position \"was kind of strange\", although he did not think that anyone was actually watching.",
"In cross-examination, he noted he remembered this only when it later became relevant.",
"M.B. also said that when he lay in Clementi's bed, he heard people joking and laughing in the courtyard, and it \"seemed like the jokes were at somebody else's expense\".",
"When he left the room, there were about five students who \"seemed to be looking at me and it seemed kind of unsettling\".",
"Ravi's communications, both in person and in texts and tweets, were key evidence in regard to the September 21 incident.",
"The prosecution contended that on September 21 Ravi set up his webcam to view a second tryst of Clementi's and advertised it to friends and Twitter followers.",
"The viewing was thwarted, they argued, only because Clementi unplugged the computer.",
"Ravi said that his messages were made in a joking manner and that he later turned off the webcam so that no viewing would occur.",
"Tyler Clementi followed Ravi's Twitter messages, visiting Ravi's Twitter page 38 times on the two days before his suicide.",
"Clementi saved two of the messages.",
"On September 20 Clementi saw the first message, which Ravi had made a few minutes after the September 19 viewing, and Clementi discussed it with friends.",
"Ravi wrote: \"Roommate asked for the room till midnight.",
"I went into Molly's room and turned on my webcam.",
"I saw him making out with a dude.",
"Yay.\"",
"The second saved message was sent by Ravi on September 21 (6:39 p.m.), after Clementi late that afternoon requested private use of the room for another tryst: \"Anyone with i-chat, I dare you to video chat me between 9:30 and 12.",
"Yes, it's happening again.",
"\"\nOn the afternoon of September 21, Ravi texted his friend Michelle Huang.",
"Ravi said that Clementi's guest \"was older and creepy and def from the internet\".",
"He said he had not seen the guest since September 19, but \"My webcam checks my bed hahaha.",
"I got so creeped out after Sunday.\"",
"He then added, \"Yeah keep the gays away.\"\nShortly after Ravi sent his \"dare you\" tweet at 6:39 p.m., Ravi urged Huang to later watch the videostream: \"Do it for real!",
"I have it pointed at his bed.",
"And the monitor is off so he can't see you.",
"Be careful it could get nasty.\"",
"At 8:41, in another text conversation, Ravi told Huang that \"people are having a viewing party\" with rum and beer.",
"Ravi told Huang the next day, \"It got messed up and didn't work.\"",
"On September 23, Ravi and Huang discussed Clementi's death and Huang asked, \"Didn't you say there was a viewing party once. ...\"",
"Ravi answered, \"No that was a joke.",
"\"\nTwo Rutgers students testified that Ravi, in an apparent test of his webcam, used computers in their rooms to connect to his own.",
"A Rutgers information technology analyst reported that iChat connections were made with Ravi's computer from these students' computers at 6:58 and 7:44 p.m. on September 21.",
"The first student said that Ravi encouraged him to text friends to watch Clementi's date and that Ravi used his computer to test the angle of the webcam so that it was pointed at Clementi's bed.",
"The second student said that after dinner Ravi \"hyped up\" his earlier \"dare you\" tweet, that Ravi used her computer to access his iChat, and that \"Tyler's side of the room came into view\" when the webcam was accessed.",
"The first student said that the next day he told Ravi that the webstream had not worked: \"Then I saw [Ravi] in the lounge and I said, 'Yo, it didn't work.'",
"And he said, 'Yeah, I have been getting that from a lot of people.'\"\nAt 9:15 p.m. Clementi saved a screenshot of Ravi's \"dare you to video chat me\" tweet.",
"At 9:25 Ravi's computer was disconnected, according to analysis by the Rutgers IT expert, and it stayed disconnected till 11:19 p.m.",
"At 9:33 Clementi told a friend online that he had turned off the power strip to Ravi's computer.",
"At 10:19 Clementi's guest arrived.",
"Ravi left for ultimate frisbee practice around 8:30–9:00 p.m.\nThe captain of the frisbee team testified that after practice, at 11 p.m., he, Ravi and others went to get takeout food at the dining hall and that Ravi said that \"he had set up a webcam of some sorts to capture images of his roommate\", had \"done it before,\" and that night \"was planning on doing it again\".",
"The student also testified that Ravi seemed uncomfortable with his roommate's being gay, but had said nothing explicitly \"disparaging\".",
"Shortly after 11 p.m. Ravi texted Clementi to see if he was still using the room.",
"At 11:48, Clementi texted Ravi that \"we're done.",
"\"\nIn an interview with investigators, Ravi said that on September 21 he had turned the webcam away from Clementi's bed.",
"A former university detective testified that, when he inspected the dorm room on Sept. 23, the webcam was \"angled directly at Tyler's bed\".",
"Only a portion of Clementi's requests for a room change were permitted to be seen by the jury.",
"After discussing with friends Ravi's first Twitter message (\"saw my roommate making out with a dude\"), Clementi, at 3:55 a.m. on September 21, filed a request on the Rutgers housing website; he wrote, \"roommate used webcam to spy on me/want a single room.\"",
"The part about spying was ruled hearsay and not admissible.",
"Late on the evening of September 21, after seeing Ravi's \"dare you\" tweet and just before his meeting with M.B., Clementi visited a resident assistant, Rahi Grover.",
"Grover was not permitted to testify about what Clementi said, but did testify about Clementi's demeanor.",
"He said that Clementi's voice was \"a little shaky\" and that he appeared uncomfortable.",
"The judge allowed some parts of Grover's official report of the incident: \"Tyler is quite upset and feels uncomfortable.",
"Tyler prefers some sort of roommate switch ASAP and prefers some sort of punishment for Dharun Ravi.\"",
"Grover also included his own recommendation that a roommate change be made as soon as possible, and he offered Clementi a bed in his own room for that night, which Clementi declined.",
"Grover requested that Clementi later send him an e-mail to formalize the roommate change request, part of which was allowed as evidence.",
"In his e-mail (12:03 a.m.)",
"Clementi wrote: \"I feel like my privacy has been violated and I am extremely uncomfortable sharing a room with someone who would act in such a wildly inappropriate manner.\"",
"The judge ruled that \"wildly inappropriate\" be excluded from jury evidence since it was not a present sense impression but a description of past actions that Clementi had deliberated on.",
"According to former prosecutor John Fahy, Clementi's e-mail and Grover's testimony were important in regard to whether or not Clementi \"reasonably believed he was being intimidated\".",
"Observers who commented after the prosecution rested its case, and before the defense brought its arguments, differed on the strength of the prosecution's case.",
"Susan Abraham, a law professor and former public defender, said that she believed that the prosecution had established both the invasion of privacy and the bias intimidation charges.",
"There is \"no question\", she said, that Clementi believed he was selected because of his sexual orientation, and some of Ravi's messages referring to gays might also be evidence of intent; she noted that, under the New Jersey bias intimidation law, the prosecution does not have to prove a biased intent, but only a reasonable belief by the victim that he was targeted because of sexual orientation.",
"Abraham also guessed that one defense argument would be that, when Ravi admitted to violating privacy in his statements to the police, he did not understand the legal meaning of \"invasion of privacy\" and made the statement under duress.",
"After the indictments, attorney Edward Weinstein had said that the prosecution case might be weak, but after hearing the prosecution case, he concluded that \"The defense has an extremely large burden; the prosecution put on a good case.\"",
"He noted that Ravi's Twitter messages, revealed during the trial, showed that \"he was not just a mischievous kid pulling a prank\", though he also felt that the outcome of the case \"totally remains to be seen\".\nJack Levin, an authority on hate crimes, was skeptical of the case for bias intimidation, saying of Ravi that \"it becomes difficult to determine whether the motivation was due to sexual orientation or some other conflicts between the roommates that have nothing to do with sexual orientation\", although he also noted that the position of the camera had raised doubts about Ravi's contention that he was primarily concerned about protecting his possessions.",
"In a news analysis published shortly before the verdict was announced, Chris Cuomo of ABC News wrote that \"for the most part, the consensus of reporters and legal analysts following the trial is that the state's hate crime charges are thin, at best.",
"\"",
"After the first morning of the defense presentation on March 9, 2012, trial attorney Brian Claypool viewed the overall defense strategy as effective, but he questioned defense techniques in trying to show that Ravi was not anti-gay.",
"The character witnesses called, he said, were ineffective because the prosecution showed there was \"no foundation\" for them to say that Ravi was not anti-gay.",
"Claypool said that the defense theme (of Ravi's not having bias) should have been pursued with numerous additional witnesses.",
"He also said that Ravi himself needed to testify to show he had no bias against gays and to explain the inconsistencies in his recorded interview with the police.",
"John Fahy, former Bergen County District Attorney, said after closing arguments that both the defense and prosecution did a \"very good job\".",
"In regard to the invasion of privacy charge, Fahy said the defense was effective in raising reasonable doubt by characterizing the incidents as a \"frolic\" of \"first-year college students\".",
"Regarding bias intimidation, Fahy said that there was \"not a lot of proof\" that the viewing was done because Clementi was gay.",
"In regard to obstruction of justice, Fahy noted that a few texts by Ravi were \"very difficult to explain\".",
"Fahy said that the police interview revealed a \"kid not used to being interrogated\" and that the interview contained \"one big lie\" by Ravi—that in the second (September 21) incident he had \"turned the computer off and later turned it on.",
"\"",
"After 12 hours of deliberations over two and a half days, a jury of 12 members and three alternates reached a verdict on March 16, 2012.",
"Ravi was found guilty of invasion of privacy, hindering apprehension, witness tampering, and all four of the bias intimidation counts.",
"In regard to the viewing on September 19, the jury concluded that Ravi did not act with the purpose to intimidate either Clementi or his guest because of their sexual orientation, but that Clementi was intimidated and reasonably believed that he had been targeted because of his sexual orientation.",
"In regard to the planned viewing on September 21 and Ravi's encouragement of his Twitter followers to watch, the jury concluded that Ravi acted with the purpose to intimidate, with the knowledge that intimidation would occur, and with the result that Clementi was intimidated and reasonably believed that he was targeted because of sexual orientation.",
"Ravi was acquitted of all bias charges against M.B.",
"Five days after the verdict, Ravi said in an interview:\nIn another interview, he said:\nOn March 23, Joseph Clementi, Tyler's father, said that the family believed that the jury had reached the \"correct verdict,\" which \"was based on the facts and the evidence\"; the defense explanation, he added, \"was simply not believable\".",
"\"I have said all along we were looking for justice and accountability.",
"I trusted the Courts and the State of New Jersey to get this right ... and they did.",
"\"\nClementi's guest, identified only as MB at the trial, reacted to the verdict on March 16, 2012.",
"He said, \"I had hoped for all concerned that a trial could have been avoided, but that was not my choice.",
"It was Mr. Ravi's decision, and now he will have to live with it.\"",
"MB's attorney said that the jury had been thorough and that the jury was correct in not finding MB to be the victim of a bias crime since the Rutgers students \"didn't know anything about our client\".",
"The trial and the verdict sparked nationwide debate on the validity and efficacy of the New Jersey hate crime statute and similar laws.",
"Marcellus A. McRae, a former federal prosecutor uninvolved in the case, hailed the guilty verdicts as \"a watershed moment, because it says youth is not immunity\".",
"Steven Goldstein, the chairman of a New Jersey equal rights advocacy group, said that \"This verdict sends the important message that a 'kids will be kids' defense is no excuse to bully another student.\"",
"Louis Raveson, a professor of criminal and civil trial litigation at Rutgers School of Law-Newark, said that bias intimidation criteria had been met: \"I think the statute correctly predicted this kind of crime and ... is being used appropriately.",
"\"\nGlenn Berman, the judge who presided over Ravi's trial, said that the New Jersey statute was \"muddled\" and that he would have written it differently.",
"The editorial board of the Newark newspaper, \"The Star-Ledger\", criticized both the law and its application, arguing that Ravi's crime was not malicious, the law was unconstitutional, and the application of the law against Ravi was a \"huge overreach\".",
"\"Washington Post\" columnist Richard Cohen criticized Ravi for \"bullying (via webcam)\", but argued that hate crime laws unfairly punish an individual for thought or speech, and therefore erode civil liberties.",
"In a \"New York Times\" op-ed piece, journalist Emily Bazelon argued that, while Ravi's invasion of Clementi's privacy \"should be out of bounds on a college campus,\" the punishment he faced was disproportionate to that crime, and that hate crime laws were not intended for these types of actions.",
"On May 21, 2012, Judge Glenn Berman sentenced Ravi to 30 days in jail, 3 years' probation, 300 hours of community service, a $10,000 fine, and counseling on cyberbullying and alternate lifestyles.",
"\"It wasn't my deal,\" the judge said.",
"\"It was the state's.\"",
"Lead prosecutor Julia McClure had sought a five-year prison term and on May 23, 2012 filed a motion appealing the sentence.",
"On May 30, 2012, Ravi waived his right to remain free during the appeals process and began his jail term at the Middlesex County Adult Corrections Center in North Brunswick, New Jersey on May 31, 2012.",
"Ravi was released from jail on June 19, 2012, after serving 20 days of his 30-day term, with 5 days of credit for good behavior and 5 days of work credits.",
"Ravi is a permanent resident of the United States who immigrated at age 6.",
"Clementi's family, M.B., and the judge all recommended Ravi not be deported.",
"In June 2012, Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials announced that the convictions were not serious enough to seek deportation.",
"Judge Berman said that Ravi's \"'letter of apology' to the pre-sentence people\" was \"unimpressive\" and \"didn't even mention the seven cover-up charges\".",
"He said it was \"ironic\" that Ravi's letter \"doesn't mention M.B. as if he doesn't exist\", yet M.B. had in his letter offered to write a letter to help Ravi avoid deportation.",
"Ravi declined the opportunity to speak at the sentencing hearing and was reprimanded by Judge Berman for not having publicly apologized: \"I heard this jury say guilty 288 times—24 questions, 12 jurors, that's the multiplication.",
"And I haven't heard you apologize once.\"\nOn May 29, 2012, Ravi released the following statement:\nClementi's parents responded:",
"Both the prosecutors and Ravi filed separate appeals.",
"In February 2016, Ravi asked the courts to overturn his convictions.",

The Lands of Roughwood | [
"The name 'Ruch' in Scot's relates to ground that is \"difficult to traverse; broken, uneven; covered with tussocky vegetation or the like\".",
"The lands consisted of 160 acres in Beith parish and 85 in Dalry parish.",
"No improvements had been made on these lands, mainly composed of moss and clay, since 1770 and they were in a very poor state, with no roads, farm-houses ruinous, and few enclosures when acquired by the Patricks.",
"The Baron Courts were held at Roughwood by the Hammills or their baillies as it is recorded that a court was held at Roughwood on 25 June 1724 with William Ralston of that Ilk acting as bailie for Hugh Hammill.",
"In August 1725 Henry Adam of Morshill was bailie, however in May 1740 Robert Shedden was bailie to John Shedden, Hugh Hammill having passed on the lands, rights and privileges permanently to the Sheddens and their heirs.",

"The colours were not apparent at that time.",
"This shield had a crest above, again a fleur-de-lis.",
"Half of the old tower was removed to make room for modern improvements; however, in the half that remained an old doorway was retained, surrounded by a cut moulding.",
"This coat of arms may be the same one that was present in the interior in the upper storey over a small fireplace in the left of the gable.",
"These armorial bearings are reported as being very worn with the date '14' in the left-hand lower corner and 1st and 3rd quarters obliterated.",
"Mr Patrick built a road through his lands, rebuilt the farm-houses, created enclosures, and added plantations that survive to this day.",

"A room in Roughwood Farm has an unusual floor with four separately supported sides creating slopes down to a central area.",

Verbal case | [
"It is frequently remarked that the genitive case behaves differently than other cases: Most cases (sometimes 'verbal' cases) are governed by their role in the clause relative to the verb, whereas the genitive (a 'nominal' case) is governed by another noun.",
"For instance, the difference in English between nominative \"I\" and oblique \"me\" is governed by its relationship to the verb (at least according to prescriptive grammars), whereas the genitive form \"my\" is associated with a noun: I see the dog, the dog sees me,\" but my dog\".",
"There are other situations where a case has been argued to be nominal rather than verbal.",
"For instance, in Latin, a noun may be inflected for case according to its role with an infinitive, which is arguably as much a noun as a verb, and this has been called nominal case:\n'At first, the Macedonians resisted'\nSimilarly, when a verb is nominalized, its arguments may remain with their original cases:\n\"She likes me → (I don't like) her liking me\"\nHere, as the verb 'likes' is changed to the gerund 'liking', and the nominative 'she' changes to genitive 'her', but the oblique case of 'me' remains.",
"Such situations are very common in subordinate clauses."

"In grammar, the term verbal case has been used with various meanings.",
"That is, the cases of those nouns most closely associated with the verb, and which may trigger verbal agreement or may be affected by the voice of a clause, rather than the cases of the more peripheral oblique arguments.",
"#'Verbal case' may also mean those noun cases governed by the relationship of the noun to the verb, in contrast with 'nominal case', where the case of a noun is determined by another noun (for example, the genitive).",
"In this use, 'verbal case' is nearly synonymous with 'case', as in most languages with case, all cases but the genitive are governed by the verb.",
"#It may also be used for noun inflections which confer verbal properties to the noun.",
"#It may refer to inflections of the verb which are argued to behave semantically like case on nouns.",
"Traditionally, case is defined as a morphological inflection of the noun, not the verb, and it is controversial whether verbal inflections can truly behave like a case system."
