McClure is a lifelong Sheffield Wednesday fan, despite some family history with Everton too.
“My dad’s side of the family are actually Everton fans because my grandad’s brother, Joe McClure, played for them in the 1930s, in the same team as Dixie Dean,” Jon told BBC Sport.
“But it’s always been Wednesday for me. My Nan danced with the players when they brought the FA Cup back to Sheffield in 1935, so I think she was a bit of a proto-WAG.”
Jon is desperate to see the Owls return to the Premier League after they were relegated back in 2000 – but could their manager, Danny Rohl, get there first, having been linked with the Southampton vacancy?
“It has been a long winter,” added Jon. “We have looked close to getting back a couple of times down the years but we are a bit worried about losing our manager at the moment, because he is very well regarded by Southampton.
“We love Danny, because he has been brilliant for us. Our problem is our chairman, Dejphon Chansiri, who is not a bad guy but is frustrating because he doesn’t listen to the fans.
“I once had a Zoom call with him, when he was in Bangkok and I was in Sheffield, and I must have been on for two hours with him and only managed to say two sentences to him – he just doesn’t listen at all.
“So, if you were Danny Rohl, and you could see a possible exit to Southampton, then it might look like an attractive proposition. But I am hoping we can keep him, because he is a wonderful manager.
“The club is definitely ready for the Premier League, too. You can get around 40,000 people into Hillsborough, and we fill it regularly – even when we have been in the third tier.
“We are a great proposition for someone, we just need an owner who is ambitious.”
Chris Sutton and Jon McClure were speaking to BBC Sport’s Chris Bevan.
