Hunt left Sheffield Wednesday to join Bristol City in July.
Jack Hunt faced Sheffield Wednesday on Sunday for the first time since leaving Hillsborough for Bristol City in the summer.
Hunt was part of the Wednesday sides that reached the Championship play-off final and semi-finals in 2016 and 2017 respectively.
But after entering the final year his contract – and with Liam Palmer and Ash Baker as cover anyway – the Owls chose to cash in on the Yorkshireman when Bristol City came calling.
And, lucky for Sheffield Wednesday, Hunt failed to make them pay – finding himself on the receiving end of a 2-1 defeat to Jos Luhukay’s side, courtesy of a brace of goals from Lucas Joao.
Afterwards, Hunt tweeted: “Disappointing result yesterday. We will stay positive as a team. We have time to reflect and work hard over the international break and we go again. Still early days for this new team!!”
And this is what Wednesdayites are saying in response…
It is not all pleasantries, however…
Joao scored twice in as many minutes midway through the second half and while Matty Taylor’s late penalty handed Bristol City a lifeline, the Robins could not stop Sheffield Wednesday from seizing sixth place.
