1991–92 Sheffield Wednesday F.C. season
During the 1991–92 English football season, Sheffield Wednesday F.C. competed in the Football League First Division, following promotion from the Second Division the previous season.
Season summary
Having guided Sheffield Wednesday to promotion to the First Division and League Cup glory the previous season, Ron Atkinson left Wednesday for Aston Villa (in somewhat controversial circumstances, having claimed that he was staying on at Wednesday before departing a week later). He was replaced by striker Trevor Francis, who juggled his playing responsibilities with his first ever management role. Under Francis, Wednesday enjoyed a fabulous season, finishing third, behind Leeds United and Manchester United and ahead of bigger clubs like Liverpool and Arsenal; this gave Wednesday qualification to the UEFA Cup. Sheffield Wednesday's hopes for a greater challenge at domestic success were boosted by the close season signing of England international winger Chris Waddle, who had just won three successive French league titles with Marseille.
Despite their overall good form, Wednesday still found themselves on the receiving ends of the season's heaviest home (6-1 to Leeds) and away (7-1 to Arsenal) defeats. Wednesday also lost both of that season's derbies against arch-rivals Sheffield United, losing 1-3 at home and 2-0 at Bramall Lane.
