Calms heads needed for Sheffield derby

Sheffield Wednesday skipper Rob Jones has urged his side to treat the derby game with rivals Sheffield United the same as any other. The Owls, who have won their last four League One games, travel to Bramall Lane for a much anticipated clash.

It is the first meeting between the two sides in the third tier since 1980, but Jones insists they must prepare in their usual way.

"We have just got to continue the way we are going, keep working hard for each other, do the right things at the right time and stay together," Jones told the club's official website.

"We have got to concentrate on the job in hand and we will try as hard as we possibly can to win this game."
