Have they learnt absolutely nothing from the last decade since Chansiri came and left?
They’re in Admin. They don’t have an owner, they have to pay massive debts to the previous owner as well as other creditors before they can even reset themselves.
10 years ago, they told us they were on their way with their millionaire owner splashing the cash on expensive players that they could t afford. And, but for one season in the play offs they’ve done nothing except survive, go down and come back again, only to rinse and repeat.
Their grunting as of us being a place above them and with an expensively assembled squad is the real shooting of the bolt… and missing widely.
As Wilder said last season in his post match rant was too much for many of our fans, but largely ignored by their own.
We have indeed changed owners and gone from the bog roll prince, as they called him, to an anonymous group of clueless clowns, but the fact remains… as a club we’ve stabilised and grown from 10 years ago at our lowest ebb, theirs is apparently now.
They want to be the underdog, they want to soften the blow before the game even kicks off, the excuses are already there, ready.
We don’t have the squad which they claim, not now. We have some big signings for this division, at best we’re a midtable squad for this division, but the real premier league experience sits on the treatment table for most of the season and many of them are has beens, lame horses and never weres.
This is by far the worst side we’ve had in the last 10 years, just like I’m sure there’s is too.
Off the pitch we’re theoretically in a far better position than many championship sides but It’s on the pitch where it matters and perhaps this is the most even we’ve been in the last decade.
The apparent biggest gap in class and quality in the last decade gave the underdogs the biggest win with the 2-4. In terms of significance of the result, that was far bigger than the Boxing Day defeat. That game turned the tide and sent them backwards. It was a shock to their arrogant system.
There’s no doubt about it, as Blades fans, we know how bad we are this season. A draw will be fine but a tight win will be huge for us and our season. They’re heading down with their points deductions and their embargoes. They may well come back and become the giant they believe they are in their minds.
Come Sunday, they will be dreaming of beating the giant that they only claim we are when it comes to softening the pre match derby fears. We certainly aren’t talking ourselves up.
Until I read this view from I was almost ambivalent, but now I just hope we smash them off the park so that they can tell us they told us so…
My fear is, as always that’ll they sneak a win or a win-draw and bang on about it for the next 50 years about how David killed Goliath. Wankers
