Jane Deaton has worked in the club's shop since she was 18

After months of boycotts and uncertainty, Sheffield Wednesday supporters are returning to Hillsborough - not just to watch football, but to help their club survive.

The Championship side was placed into administration on Friday, bringing the curtain down on Dejphon Chansiri's decade-long ownership and an end to a turbulent period that on occasion saw staff and players going unpaid.

Since then fans have been flocking back to the club shop to spend money and show their solidarity.

Jane Deaton, who has worked at the shop for 42 years, said the support had been "outstanding", adding: "That's what's kept us all here, kept us going and kept us smiling."

The Owls lost 2-1 to Oxford United on Saturday, in their first game since the administrators were called in.

But while defeat did nothing to put a dent in the automatic 12-point deduction for entering administration, it was a joyous moment for many as fans returned in their droves to the stands.
