Luzon, McLaren, Clements, Lennon, Cotterill, Bruce and Di Matteo are all linked by one common thread, they were potted after losing or failing to beat North End, will Jos Luhukay be joing that list sometime after 5pm on Saturday. The Wednesday manager is under huge pressure from the fans after a series of disappointing results this season. They have a massive injury list and he has fallen out with a few senior players, also for Saturday flat head Bannan who always plays well against us is suspended.
To add to Luhukay problems this man is in town debating his future, Dejphon Chansiri th'owner of th'Owls

Here's the wiki bit
Sheffield Wednesday Football Club is a professional association football club based in Sheffield, England. The team currently competes in the Championship, the second tier of the English football league system. Formed as an offshoot of The Wednesday Cricket Club in 1867, they went by the name of The Wednesday Football Club until changing to their current name in 1929.

Wednesday is one of the oldest football clubs in the world of any code, and the third-oldest professional association football club in England, excluding clubs with informal or disputed foundation dates. In 1868 its team won the Cromwell Cup, only the second tournament of its kind, and in 1877 they won the inaugural Sheffield Challenge Cup, the oldest county cup in England. They were founding members and inaugural champions of the Football Alliance in 1889, before joining The Football League three years later. In 1992 they became founder members of the Premier League. The team has spent most of its league history in English football's top flight, but they have not played at that level since being relegated in 2000.

The Owls, as they are nicknamed, have won four league titles, three FA Cups, one League Cup and one FA Community Shield. Wednesday have also competed in UEFA cup competitions on four occasions, reaching the quarter-finals of the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup in 1963.

Since 1899 the club has played its home matches at Hillsborough stadium, a near-40,000 capacity stadium in the north-west Sheffield suburb of Owlerton.[5][6]
Team News: Sheffield Wednesday

Manager Alex Neil is again likely to have to include Academy products to supplement his squad for their trip to Sheffield Wednesday.
Over the past couple of weeks, both Jack Baxter and Ethan Walker have featured on the bench for the Lilywhites and could again be involved in the travelling party heading over the Pennines to take on the Owls.

Louis Moult was the latest to join the packed medical room, missing last weekend’s win over Millwall and he will be given as long as possible to see whether he is fit to return to the ground he scored his first goal for the club, in last season’s defeat to Jos Luhukay’s team.

Sean Maguire and Brandon Barker (both hamstring) and Josh Earl (thigh) are all making good progress, but are not yet ready to return to the squad and will target returns over the festive period.
Josh Harrop and Billy Bodin (both ACL) and Callum Robinson (hamstring) are all out long term, leaving the manager with limited choices, particularly at the attacking end of the pitch.
for last weekend's defeat to Swansea City, Wednesday boss Luhukay made two changes, preferring Daniel Pudill at centre half to Michael Hector, while Josh Onomah, on loan from Tottenham Hotspur until the end of the season, replaced the suspended Barry Bannan.

Scotland international Bannan sits out the second of two games after collecting ten yellow cards for the season, but whether Onomah keeps his place will be one question, after the manager criticised his display against the Swans last week.

Defender Joost van Aken and former Lilywhites midfielder David Jones were included in the matchday squad for the first time since August in that game and could push for recalls to the starting XI.

But forward Fernando Forestieri (hamstring) and strikers Gary Hooper (groin) and Sam Winnall (hamstring) and Kieran Lee (knee) all look like they will still be sidelined.

Ref Watch: Sheffield Wednesday
We are almost at the end of 2018, but we haven’t seen Saturday’s match official since our opening game of the year.
After his promotion to the Premier League list in the summer, referee David Coote takes charge of his first PNE game of the season at Hillsborough this weekend.

The select group official, took charge of October 2017s clash with Brentford and the New Year’s Day game against Middlesbrough, his two North End games last season.

He was following two visits the previous season as well, including February’s 2-1 home win over Queens Park Rangers and also the first home game of the season when we took on Derby County in PR1.

Before that Rams clash, he last refereed the Lilywhites in their goalless draw at the New York Stadium against Rotherham United in 2015/16.
He was the referee of two PNE games the year before that as well. His first game of 2014/15 was the entertaining clash with Milton Keynes at Deepdale back in December 2014. He then took charge of the 2-2 draw at home to Gillingham in April of that year too.
In 2013/14 his two games in charge of North End were the 2-2 draw at home to Bradford City early on in the campaign and then at Tranmere Rovers’ Prenton Park for our 2-1 win over the Super Whites in February 2014.

So far this season, he has taken charge of 12 games, including at Fulham, Leicester City and Everton, issuing 40 cautions and three red cards.

He will be assisted by Simon Long and Neil Davies on the line, which the fourth official will be experienced select group two official and familiar face Andy Madley.
