Owls still chasing Sahar

Sheffield Wednesday manager Brian Laws remains confident that he will eventually tie up a loan deal for Chelsea youngster Ben Sahar.
The 18-year-old was expected to complete his one-month move to the relegation-threatened Owls earlier in the week but the arrangement was delayed when Tuesday's Championship clash against Coventry City was postponed.
Former Scunthorpe boss Laws told the Sheffield Star: "He wants to come. He said he's spoken to a few people and got good recommendations about the club.
"I'm pleased. He'll give us an extra option. Although he's young, he's certainly not raw. He's also played in front of big crowds, so he can handle that.
"His credentials are very good for such a young player, and he plays above his age."
Sahar made nine appearances for QPR during a loan spell at Loftus Road earlier this season.
