So possibly a PL job with a link to Andrews after his time here rather than leaving because of the head coach or board?

Don’t be coming on here talking sense. They’ve all left because we lost to Bristol City and the end is nigh.

And probably because they can't understand Sellés....

I certainly wouldn’t put myself in the ‘bedwetting after two games’ bracket, but this more than anything else does worry me.

I can deal with late recruitment, change of manager, style of play, and being patient with all of that, but our academy setup is the best thing we have at the club in my opinion. It does seem strange that so many are jumping ship all at once, at this stage of the season.

My mate knows Rob rayner he’s 100% left for Brentford, Their head coach took all their staff when he went to spurs, so Brentford came In for Rayner and a few of other lads, they’ve made rayner the top coach or senior top coach, I asked if this had owt to do with the academy coaches leaving and it hasn’t

Do we get compensation for all of this to use towards our transfer kitty?

Nah. The board drove him out for an assistant managers job!

What ever anyone says, and despite the statements on socials, it’s still odd that 6 academy staff leave to take positions elsewhere.
There has to be a pivotal moment, a trigger, a catalyst for that to happen. That scale doesn’t happen by coincidence.
They must have spoken to each other and decided there was no future for them at the Blades academy. Regardless of poached by Brentford or assistant at Morecombe. It all seems odd that they have left en masse.

Didn't know, or had forgotten, Tomlin was with us as a coach. EFL legend.
