Mandaric talks 'fantastic' gesture
Sheffield Wednesday chairman Milan Mandaric was "incredibly touched" by a huge banner of support which was unfurled by fans during the weekend win at Oldham.
The banner, which spread across the whole width of the away end at Boundary Park housing almost 4,000 travelling supporters, read: 'The city is ours - Xbajia Milan', which means 'thank you' in Mandaric's native Serbian.
Mandaric told the club's official website: "I'm so incredibly touched by this gesture. It's fantastic to know that I have the appreciation and recognition of the supporters to what we are all working so hard to do at Sheffield Wednesday."
He added: "This is what gives me the energy and enthusiasm to do as much as I can for our club."
"I'm fond of my time at Portsmouth and I also have great appreciation of my time at Leicester too, but this was a special touch and I truly appreciate the efforts of these wonderful supporters.
"I have the photograph and I will be having it framed for my office at Hillsborough." - http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com
