The Owls finally got a win on the board this weekend with a 2-0 win over local rivals, Rotherham United, a game that saw Michael Smith get both goals in front of the Millers fans who had been booing his every touch in the early stages.

Röhl’s family were present for the first time since he took on the job earlier this month, and he joked afterwards that as quite a superstitious man he may have to try and make a plan to make sure they’re at every game from now on.

Take a look at the video above to see what the German had to say about the fans’ part in victory, and what it was like hearing his name sung to the tune of Daddy Cool in his first outing at S6.
