Sheffield Wednesday marked their move into administration in the perfect way ahead of their game against Oxford United yesterday.
For most teams, the club taking such a step would be a worrying development, but for the Owls, who have been fiercely protesting against owner Dejphon Chansiri for months following unpaid wage bills and missed tax bills, among other financial issues it marks the chance to break from the Thai businessman.
How Sheffield Wednesday marked the end of Dejphon Chansiris reign
Fans had been boycotting Wednesdays fixtures, but Oxfords visit marked the first game since the club had been taken out of Chansiris direct control.
On the big screen inside Hillsborough Stadium, club staff wasted no time in celebrating the landmark moment.

Casting Chansiri as a computer virus, the video message read: A problem has been detected in your club and has been stopped to prevent further damage
An error has been detected with the following file: CHANSIRI.EXE, followed on the next slide by, attempting to remove
Finally, the screen read: Removal successfully completed! Contacting Administrator to begin recovery
It was met by cheers around the ground, as the video broke out into a montage of the history of the Owls.
It followed officials moving to rip out white seats in the stadiums North Stand that read Chansiri, installed by the outgoing owner.
There has been little to celebrate for the Yorkshire club in recent times and, in FourFourTwos opinion, they marked this moment in the perfect way.
The removal of the seats, accompanied by the video and the decision to revert to their old page on their social media pages, shows that is exactly what fans will want to see: a visual representation of the reclamation of their club.
Theres a long road ahead for the Owls, but they could finally be on the right path.
