Jeffers career at Sheffield Wednesday was wrecked by two incidents in the Potteries. In Oct 2007 he had been showing great form. The team went to Stoke and hammered them 4-1 but Jeffers got a broken leg from a tackle by Ryan Shawcross.

Fast forward nearly 2 years the club exited the League Cup at Port Vale Jeffers was shown a straight red card in the 37th minute and then transfer listed and frozen out of the first team by the club - shades of the way Di Canio was dealt with for pushing the referee. They turned to him and got him off the bench when they could only draw their final Championship game against relegation rivals Palace but to no avail.

Not many seem to speak up for him on the Wednesday Blog I am a member of.
