Josh Windass lands five word Kenny Miller response after ex-Rangers star grabs Wembley headlines

Josh Windass has been in the headlines after his Wembley heroics for Sheffield Wednesday.

The former Rangers attacker was on hand to head home in the 123rd minute of the English League One play-off final as he sparked wild scenes on the park and in the stands with the tens of thousands of supporters going crazy after his last-gasp moment that secured a return to the English Championship for next season.

Following no goals in the 90 minutes, the match headed for an extra 30 with Barnsley down to ten men from the 49th minute of the game. They battled away with promotion on the line but with the lottery of penalty kicks just seconds away, Windass connected with a header and the rest is history with the 29-year-old revelling in the glory of the big moment in his career.

Ex-Rangers striker Kenny Miller was buzzing for his mate and took to social media to offer his congratulations. Sharing a celebration image of Windass he wrote: "Congrats pal. Fully deserve it."

Windass also took to his Instagram account to share a picture of himself and boss Darren Moore holding the play-off trophy with the caption: "Not the league title we wanted but a good one never the less."

In another upload with the trophy in the dressing room, he added: "Goal 16 was a memorable one, we got relegated because of a points deduction. We didn’t deserve to be in this league.

"We fought every day to get back up, high standards and incredible team spirit. The changing room is full of unbelievable people, and the fan base, INCREDIBLE!!"
