SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY have been left red-faced after mistakenly sending 4,000 tickets to the WRONG CLUB.
Oxford United travel to Hillsborough on April 12 for a bumper clash in their quest to secure Championship survival.

A huge following is expected to follow Gary Rowett’s men into South Yorkshire with the U’s requesting an allocation of 4,000.
But instead of sending them to the Kassam Stadium to be sold, the Owls incorrectly sent them to Oxford City – United’s non-league neighbours from four divisions below.
The embarrassing gaffe was revealed by the National League South side on social media as they posted a photo of their surprise delivery at the MGroup Stadium.
That was accompanied with a caption saying: “A big thank you to Sheffield Wednesday for the delivery of 4,000 tickets for your game vs Oxford United.”
A wink face emoji for the “intern at the Hillsborough ticket office” followed along with the message: “Don’t worry, we’ve all been there!”
It finished with a “don’t panic” message and a promise to deliver the tickets to the Kassam “after lunch”.
However, it seems their rivals “mustn’t have trusted” them as they headed straight round to collect them.
Andy Gate, Oxford City’s press officer, said: “We do get calls now and then for people who want to get tickets to Oxford United and get the wrong number, and usually I’m quickly googling the Oxford United website to give them the number for the ticket office there. But we’ve had nothing like this, not at all.
