Below are some of the best comments:

Thorniley showed last season he was shining light of youth given a chance. Carried that on this season and from what seen so far, Penney is following suit. 2 potential stars. Also credit to another academy graduate Liam Palmer. Playing how everyone always hoped he would. #swfc

Now it’s time for @swfc to get Cammy, Thorniley and Penney signed up to new long term deals!

Palmer had another solid game today but Jesus, Matt Penney is going to be some player if he keeps improving like he is #swfc

On a great run of form at the moment, an added bonus to have several young promising players come through. Liking the look of Penney and Thorniley especially. It’s a shame we couldn’t keep Clare on #swfc

Reading 1-2 Sheffield Wednesday
A very positive game today with goals from Adam Reach & Lucas Joao (shame I actually missed it!)
Very impressed by Penney, couple of great saves at the end from Dawson.
Onwards & upwards! #SWFC #WAWAW #believe #Championship pic.twitter.com/PGyTD57w3r

I hope Hector has come to push Lees, as Thornily looks like the solid one back there, Penney has the LB spot nailed down now too #swfc

Matt Penney looks very good. To think Bradford and Mansfield didn’t give him game time #swfc
