All of a sudden there is a deal to be done and to a man like Ashley, that could prove too much to resist. The biggest creditor by far is the club’s hated former owner Dejphon Chansiri, who is owed around £64m. Sheffield-born entrepreneur Ryan Howsam explored the situation before the Bord group gained exclusivity on Christmas Eve, with a view to making his friend – ex-Crystal Palace owner Simon Jordan – part of the management. The Bord group is now history, along with their £4m, and the hope is that Wednesday do not go the same way. It is to be hoped the ghost of Dejphon Chansiri does not continue to haunt Sheffield Wednesday.
