and live on Freeview channel 276
Nuhiu signed for Wednesday back in 2013 and has popped up with some massive goals for the Owls over the years.
Known affectionately by the Wednesday faithful as ‘Big Dave’, Nuhiu is never hard to spot with his towering 6ft fin frame.

Hide AdHe’s amassed a number of fans over the years including, it seems, musician Richard Hawley.
The 29-year-old has been pictured alongside Hawley for the front cover of the latest Wednesday programme ahead of their match against Aston Villa.
Nuhiu, dressed in a blue pea coat, stares longingly at the camera while the famous musician gazes out into the distance.
The pair are positioned in front of the Crucible theatre, where Hawley’s new musical ‘Standing at the Sky’s Edge’ is showing.

Barbara Wood said it was the ‘Best front cover yet,’ while Steve Turner described him as ‘Dapper Dave’.
