Sheffield Wednesday once again fell to defeat in the Championship this afternoon, succumbing to a 2-1 defeat to Garry Monk's Middlesbrough at Hillsborough.

The loss made it seven without victory for the Owls, and any hope they had of mounting a challenge for the playoff places this season looks dead and buried already.

Following the game, manager Carlos Carvalhal had some difficult questions in his interviews with the local press, and following one question from Radio Sheffield's Rob Staton, the Portuguese coach responded with words which will no doubt anger the Owls fans.

The sight of a manager passing the book and not taking any blame for results is often a sign of a manager under intense pressure, and that is something that Carvalhal will definitely be feeling right now.

With Staton puttin the Tweet out there for all to see, it was bound to cause quite the reaction from Wednesday fans, who were no doubt left fuming by the news that Carvalhal is appearing to pass the blame.

Here's a look at how Owls fans responded to the interview and some of their views on their manager's comments...
