Kenilworth
Forged in Steel - Fooked in Riyadh
Fully expecting a spanking on Saturday at Wolves with yet another blank in the goals for column for the "new look" Blades. Six days later Weir will be under the microscope during the Friday night game, live on Sky, against a more than handy side from Crawley.
A live game in front of the Sky cameras means that there will be no place to hide for him and the players because the whole approach and execution of the game plan will be under the closest scrutiny from all sides. His insistence that we are (despite nobody else agreeing) creating chances galore and that we have been desperately unlucky will be well and truly open for debate and the number of times their goalkeeper actually gets into the action will be there for all to see. I wonder if things will have improved before then - the evidence, so far, suggests otherwise.
A defeat to Crawley at home last season was the game that triggered the final demise of DW1 . It doesn't take a genius to realise that the Crawley game is likely to be a seminal moment in the managerial career of DW2.
I wonder what the reaction will be if we are in the position where we have lost 8 games in a row? Have we ever done that before?
