Laws left Scunthorpe to take over from previous Owls boss Paul Sturrock on November 6 2006, with his third anniversary falling on Friday.

The 48-year-old is Wednesday's longest-serving manager since Trevor Francis, who departed after just under four years in charge in 1991.

Former Nottingham Forest defender Laws is also the fourth longest-serving manager in the Championship behind Cardiff's Dave Jones, Gary Johnson at Bristol City and Doncaster's Sean O'Driscoll.
