Wednesday are relegated to Division 1 (Tier 2).

After finishing in mid-table the previous season, the season starts terribly with Wednesday losing eight out of the first nine matches.  Unfortunately they never recover and are in the bottom two the whole season.  Danny Wilson's sacking is inevitable and Peter Shreeves takes over as caretaker manager with nine matches to go but can't prevent Wednesday being relegated by three points.

Wednesday are dumped out of the FA Cup by Division 2 (tier 3) Gillingham in the 5th round.
