Sheffield Wednesday chairman Dejphon Chansiri FUMES at Owls legend Carlton Palmer for 'trying to damage the club' after blasting Darren Moore's departure - claiming the ex-midfielder 'just wants attention'

Sheffield Wednesday chairman Dejphon Chansiri hit back at his critics when introducing new manager Xisco Munoz to the media.

Former Watford boss Munoz, 42, was appointed on Tuesday as a replacement for Darren Moore, who surprisingly left the club by mutual consent last month - just three weeks after leading them to promotion back to the Championship.

Chansiri has come under pressure from a section of fans over Moore's departure, with former Owls player Carlton Palmer among his critics on social media.

The Wednesday chairman felt compelled to reveal in a club statement last week that Moore had left Hillsborough after asking for a contract four times bigger than his previous one.
