Owls rot continues - Wilson's job unsecure
report from official swfc site
All in all it wasn't a bad performance but that will be of no
consolation to Wednesday fans as the Owls slipped to another
disappointing Premiership defeat.
Danny Wilson's men have
now lost all four of their
Premiership home games
this season as Everton
struck with two early sucker
punches to leave
Wednesday rooted to the
bottom of the Premiership.
Much of the talk before and
after the game was the
ongoing saga involving
transfer listed Italian, Beni
Carbone. The striker started
on the bench for the game
and although he came on
as a late sub even his
mercurial skills failed to
alter the course of a game
which had been taken out of Wednesday hands with the two goals in
the space of three minutes.
David Unsworth's high 15th minute ball to the edge of the area was
knocked down by Kevin Campbell, with Francis Jeffers the intended
target from Campbell's header having slipped, it was left to Nick
Barmby to rifle home a 20-yard drive beyond Kevin Pressman.
The visitors then went 2-0 up three minutes later as Mitch Ward and
Jeffers beautifully worked the overlap down the right wing. The latter's
cross was missed by Barmby but was met at the far post by Scot
Gemmill for his first this campaign.
Half-time Owls 0-2 Everton
Wednesday's heads refused to go down with Gilles De Bilde again
looked inventive while he was on with two turn and shots in the first
half both saved by keeper Gerrard while Andy Booth should have at
least hit the target with a free header in the second half.
Everton also had the opportunities to make the scoreline a more
flattering one with teenage star Jeffers and then Campbell both
bringing the best out of Pressman. However despite some pressure
in the second half Wednesday could not find the breakthrough.
