Lee Gregory has been crowned the League One Player of the Month for April.

The striker finished the campaign in red-hot form, scoring eight goals in nine games to help the Owls cement a fourth-placed finish and a spot in the play-offs.

Gregory was also on target against Sunderland in the play-offs, which alas ended in disappointment for his side.

Last month, the 33-year-old excelled in particular against Fleetwood at Highbury Stadium, bagging a hat-trick as Wednesday came from 2-1 down to win 3-2.

Overall, the former Millwall man bagged 17 goals and laid on five assists during his maiden year in S6.

Gregory’s tally means only two players have scored more league goals in a season this century for Wednesday, Steven MacLean in 2004/05 and Gary Madine in 2011/12.

The forward becomes the second Owls player to win the award this season, with captain Barry Bannan picking up the accolade in March.

Congratulations, Lee!

Great news. We can have another crack at this again next season.

A vital asset....need a pacy foil and a big daft lad of a target man to add to him....

If he’d have been fit for the whole season we’d have gone up automatically IMO. Anyone know how many games he missed?

Nine I think.

Was out injured for eight, didn’t play the opening game, debut was as sub in the first home game v Donny.

Not sure if he missed the other odd one throughout the season.

So by that I reckoning he could have got about 4/5 more goals. All ifs and buts now tho ☹️
