We're already in a bit of a pickle in terms of players and stuff.

At this point, players weren't getting paid.

There isn't many people at the football club because that's not the way that our previous owner

So I think when we're talking about like a why, like why has he chose now to leave Sheffield Wednesday Football Club, I think it's just all come to a head.

I think the fact that it may have been given some promises back in the summer that haven't materialised.

We're now at the end of January and...

He only signed a year deal, but it's a massive drop from what he was on previously.

And then when you couple that with losing every single week, we're on a 22-game run, winless run at the moment.

We've only won one game all season.

And Barry Bannon is a...

I think he prides himself on winning, as should every footballer, really.

But I think he's probably taken it personally.

And then you've also got other players.

Ike Ukbo is one.

He's the highest paid player at the club.
