Meanwhile Coventry, the team that didn’t bin the manager that got them in the Play offs are 6-0 up against QPR!

Continuing and small changes.

Idiots. The need to fix this asap.

Coventry have a very good scouting network and recruitment team, something we've lacked for 4-5 seasons and one of the key reasons our squad is so weak and lacking. Will we ever get a director of football which we badly need? Nope. Will we fuck.

 

[71Blade]

Can somebody please tell me what the plan is? Whst style of play formation are we playing?

 

[BangorBlade]

Nuno Espírito Santo would be a good Spaniard to have at the Lane if he's sacked at Florist

 

[SLB]

At least we don't have a Bladey Blade in charge anymore though

Good because that's not the answer either.

 

[paidsy]

Nuno Espírito Santo would be a good Spaniard to have at the Lane if he's sacked at Florist

He would be shocked to find out he's Spanish

 

[Headshrinker]

Three bookings for having a go at the ref? There needs to be fines after the match.

 

[Tickhill Blade]

Hamer will want out after this performance….

Didnt we say that last week? And the week before?

 

[Blade56]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

 

[Heely bottoms underpants]

I thought the appointment of Selles was really odd when it happened, you would have thought after a really good season the owners would have gone for someone who knew what it takes in the championship and push on.
It would appear Selles is somewhat of an imposter.

 

[RetfordBlade96]

Gonna be behind Wednesday a team who literally didn’t have a pre season and have no players … what a club our ability to clutch defeat in the jaws of victory is legendary

 

[Thrice]

I would tend to give Selles more time if there were at least glimpses. There were about 20 minutes against Bristol City were the team looked really good in attack. But since then absolutely nothing...

 

[Chilttheblade]

This always happens when we play towards the Kop in the first half

 

[BangorBlade]

He would be shocked to find out he's Spanish

Ok Portuguese....same neck of the woods

 

[Montymagic]

We will finish below the fucking pigs

And they don't get fucking paid a wage..

 

[paidsy]

If there's anybody who knows football making the decisions, Selles is gone by 6pm.

 

[WestYorksBlade]

If there's anybody who knows football making the decisions, Selles is gone by 6pm.

What a ridiculous suggestion.

Not the sacking bit, the part where you suggest there’s a chance there’s someone who knows football making the decisions.

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

The constant reliance on loan signings over the last 4 seasons has created this mess. We've been far too dependent on them and when they return to their parent clubs we're left with very few senior players and little quality and experience. Look at today's subs. Brooks, One and Seriki. Poor squad management and recruitment has created this absolute shambles and that started before the new owners with the Poundland Prince and Bettis.

Yes but we'll always have those happy memories when the Blades rose off the bottom of the division and were above the oinkers, even if it was for only a few minutes. Maybe there could be an open-top bus parade around the city centre for the first Sheffield team to gain a point this season...... and just as I'm posting, the oinkers score.

 

[The Crab]

I’d call this managed decline but that would imply there’s any managing going on

 

[paidsy]

What a ridiculous suggestion.

Yeah I don't know what I was thinking there!

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

Wilder's 3rd place wasn't good enough last season, we've already lost more then the team who finished second. Wonder if the owners are regretting it yet

 

[Innuendoandouttheother]

If there's anybody who knows football making the decisions, Selles is gone by 6pm.

You reckon they will? Hard to know what to do. Do you back him with millions when the likelihood is that results will continue to slump, or do you make the rather brutal sacking at 3 games in (well brutal for any side other than one that finished with 92 points) with a week left of the window? There don't appear to have been any glimpses of the pre-season flair. It's on the board this if they sack him.

 

[Montytheblade]

Genuine question: when will they get rid of Salles?

Today I hope, fuck me this is gash

 

[Northernsoulblade]

Boooooooooooooooooo u can’t clap that abysmal showing

You can't commit that much money to Tanganga and keep him around

 

[john Mathison]

Rock bottom, after finishing 3rd!!!!!!!!!! This has all the signs of a Luton last years.

 

[toledo]

What the heck was that today... I didn't think we could get any worse but we did: no inventivness, no game plan, nothing..................

Relegation is a certainty after this..

A very very disappointed toledo

 

[Headshrinker]

Not a second added on the five minutes despite their time wasting?

The performances might have been shit but extremely unlucky to not have gotten a single point out of these two home fixtures.

 

[Red Hot Currie]

I would tend to give Selles more time if there were at least glimpses. There were about 20 minutes against Bristol City were the team looked really good in attack. But since then absolutely nothing...

Memories of David Weir's first game... and very short tenure thereafter.
