Wednesday wage payments delayed again
Sheffield Wednesday finished 12th in the Championship last season

Sheffield Wednesday's players have been informed that their wages will be delayed for a third successive month, BBC Radio Sheffield understands.
There is now a possibility that they could refuse to play, with the new Championship season just 10 days away.
The Owls, who are without a manager after Danny Rohl's exit on Tuesday, are scheduled to start the season with a trip to Leicester City on Sunday, 10 August.
The South Yorkshire side are under a number of embargoes because of financial issues, including players being paid late in both May and June, and owner Dejphon Chansiri is looking to sell the club.
The ongoing uncertainty around the club saw forwards Michael Smith and Josh Windass end their contracts by mutual consent earlier this month to join Preston and Wrexham respectively.
Their exits, along with the embargoes and the club's inability to get players whose contracts expired last month to sign on again, has left Wednesday with a very small pool of senior professionals.
