Sheffield Wednesday 0 - 1 Manchester City
Not an easy opening game for care-taker Marsh against perennial Premier challengers Manchester City, especially with the minutes issues that have been left at the club.
Despite the gulf in class and enforced changes the home side gave a good display and probably deserved a draw out of the game. A 7-6 shot count meant that only the away sides extra quality won the day.
The good news is an improvement in the clubs of hopes of retaining players which has to be the number one target for the remainder of the season. Danilo, Wendell, Kaminski, Diabate, Veron and Hogan all made strides forwards as the first paracetamol for the headache slightly eased the situation.
Care-taker Marsh commented "I think the boys put out a really spirited performance that the fans have not seen when Sam errrrr Mike Bradwell was in charge this season. If they can keep that up then a few more points will hopefully come this season".
Cardiff City 1 - 1 Sheffield Wednesday
A good hard earned point but Wednesday could have nicked this one with a 7-9 shot count. Missed changes though meant Hogans late goal was a point saver rather than a winner. Draws wont keep the club up but it is a small step forwards.
Caretaker Marsh added "Thats the first point on the board but we need to find a win soon".
Sheffield Wednesday 1 - 1 Leicester City
The Owls did everything they could to win this one. An 18-7 shot count should have been enough to give the home side three points but poor finishing meant the spoils were shared.
The club remain firmly rooted on the bottom of the league.
Caretaker Marsh added "Frustrating this one. Wednesday really should have had a morale boosting victory but the players are on the floor confidence wise. One win could become two and a route to given the club a chance".

Engels fired the Owls into an early lead but from there on it it was pretty much one way traffic and Spurs hit back with three goals to win the points.
A 19-6 shot count produced a fair outcome result wise.
Caretaker manager Simon Marsh added "Soundly beaten out there which puts a further nail in the coffin. Its going to take some going to even provide a chance of staying up".
Good news for the bank manager as finances have more or less doubled to £6.7m taking a bit of pressure from that side of the game.
Good news on the playing minutes
Danilo is down to 26.57 minutes needed per game.
Wendell is down to 13.50 minutes per game
Kaminski has completed his minutes and signed a new one year deal.
Amos has completed his minutes and signed a new one year deal.
Hogan is still the main problem needing 36.71 minutes but this is significantly reduced.
Confidence is growing that all players will now be retained but at a detriment to being able to play the best side.
Sheffield Wednesday 1 - 1 Burnley
Another point for Wednesay but another winless game under the caretakering of Marsh. A shot count of 10-7 perhaps didnt take advantage of Burnleys 10men from 57 minutes. Again squad retention taking precendent perhaps contributed to not finding a winning goal here.
Watford 0 - 0 Sheffield Wednesday
Bottom club Wednesday were very surprised to play a home side who desperately needed 3 points but whom played defensive for the entire game. There were only 3 shots in the entire game with Wednesday winning the shot count 2-1.
Caretaker Marsh was frustrated with this one adding "Very bizarre. The game was dreadful for the fans and both sets were unhappy at the game. The point does little to help Watfords plight. For Wednesday its a small continuation of the improvement with 4 points from 6 games, slightly better than what was inherited but they are further away from survival and games are running out. Only wins and wins in blocks will do from here".
Only 6 players now need further minutes this season for the full squad to be fully retained.
Danilo, Wendell, Placheta, Veron, Hogan and Mendy
