After a quiet start to his Owls career, Essex-born Hooper hit six goals in his last six outings for the club.

His haul of four goals in the Owls last two home matches effectively earned the club six priceless points with Hooper hitting braces in the wins over Bolton Wanderers and Leeds United, beaten 3-2 and 2-0 respectively.
