Cherries not so sweet for Turner's troops

The Owls suffered their first away defeat of the season, also their first since March earlier this year, when newly promoted Bournemouth struck a deadly 90th minute blow to steal all three points. Chris Turner had drafted in two new faces into the Owls backline in Steven Haslam and Jon Beswetherick, replacing the suspended Derek Geary and dropping Irishman Brian Barry-Murphy.

But his Wednesday side struggled for the majority of the game and never looked likely to come away from the game with much more than a point. Infact, Bournemouth struck the woodwork no less than four times throughout the game.

Wade Elliott's last gasp strike was probably no more than what they deserved. For Wednesday's travelling support, it was to be a long journey back north after seeing their side put out one of their most dismal performances so far this season.
