7 years from now

[Cerberus Blade]

where will we be?

Here's my take on it...

We will be in the Championship trying to get back into the Prem.

We were promoted from league 1 in 2017 and achieved back to back promotions in 2018 taking us back to the Prem before Wednesday (it was a Tuesday in fact).

Before the new Prem season started in August 2018 McCabe sold us out to a Chinese consortium. They predged game changing money!

The 2018/19 season we started brightly and all the fans wore red n white lampshade hats in favour of our new owners. Ultimately we did well finishing 10th and more investment was promised.

In 2019/20 season we got off to a poor start losing 4 out of the 5 first games and were bottom of the table. The Chinese owners sacked Wilder and appointed someone we'd never heard of from Outer Mongolia. It didn't help. We were relegated back to the Championship at the end of that season. Fans burned their lampshade hats in the car park and removed their shoes - taking care not to point their feet towards the owners because it's rude in Chinese culture.

The next three seasons we struggled to make any impact at the top of the table and Blades fans started attacking anyone in the street who looked vaguely Chinese.

Eventually the Chinese owners quit and the club was in the hands of a new investor. A Malaysian chappie.

The lampshade hats came out once more and Wilder was reinstated. His task now : to get us back to the Prem at first attempt.

He failed and was sacked again.

Meanwhile Mr McCabe unwrapped another Werthers original and sucked on it pensively - wondering what might have been - as he threw another wad of £50 notes on the fire to keep warm.

Personally would have no problem with a manager from Outer Mongolia. One from Inner Mongolia though would be a different matter entirely.

 

[derfblade.3]

No, I agree with you. I was just trying to think of reasons why Done's seemingly being given almost preferential treatment (in the sense that, after Wilder finally runs out of patience with his appalling strike rate as a forward, he then goes & plays him at left wing back after previously saying how silly it was of Adkins to play him there).

I'm certainly among those thinking it were better to move him on this window if it can be done. If not, I'd merely have him as back up for Lavery as a similar type player.

P.S. Thanks for the compliment. I enjoy reading your posts too, even at times when I don't fully agree with you: they're always interesting.

[Pollingtonblade]

where will we be?

Here's my take on it...

We will be in the Championship trying to get back into the Prem.

We were promoted from league 1 in 2017 and achieved back to back promotions in 2018 taking us back to the Prem before Wednesday (it was a Tuesday in fact).

Before the new Prem season started in August 2018 McCabe sold us out to a Chinese consortium. They predged game changing money!

The 2018/19 season we started brightly and all the fans wore red n white lampshade hats in favour of our new owners. Ultimately we did well finishing 10th and more investment was promised.

In 2019/20 season we got off to a poor start losing 4 out of the 5 first games and were bottom of the table. The Chinese owners sacked Wilder and appointed someone we'd never heard of from Outer Mongolia. It didn't help. We were relegated back to the Championship at the end of that season. Fans burned their lampshade hats in the car park and removed their shoes - taking care not to point their feet towards the owners because it's rude in Chinese culture.

The next three seasons we struggled to make any impact at the top of the table and Blades fans started attacking anyone in the street who looked vaguely Chinese.

Eventually the Chinese owners quit and the club was in the hands of a new investor. A Malaysian chappie.

The lampshade hats came out once more and Wilder was reinstated. His task now : to get us back to the Prem at first attempt.

He failed and was sacked again.

Meanwhile Mr McCabe unwrapped another Werthers original and sucked on it pensively - wondering what might have been - as he threw another wad of £50 notes on the fire to keep warm.

Tell me, have you been at that Jamaican Old Holborn?

It's good to know that we eventually won a play-off final in 2017,i thought it would never happen !!

 

[zablade]

Seven years from now...

We might (might) have got back in The Championship at some point, I would then expect us to have been striving with all hands to pump to stay there, or probably have been relegated back down again and be challenging to get back up.

Anyone expecting a Premier League promortion challenge is also almost certainly a candidate for selling their best cow for some magic beans....there will be no game changing money whether we get up not, forget about it.

Me too.

I've a lot of time for those hard working Outer Mongolian goat herds trekking across the Gobi Desert, but those workshy piggy Inner Mongolian inbreds are always going on about the 'Massive' and what a big following they have in Ulaanbaatar - bastards!

Here's my take on it...

We will be in the Championship trying to get back into the Prem.

We were promoted from league 1 in 2017 and achieved back to back promotions in 2018 taking us back to the Prem before Wednesday (it was a Tuesday in fact).

Before the new Prem season started in August 2018 McCabe sold us out to a Chinese consortium. They predged game changing money!

The 2018/19 season we started brightly and all the fans wore red n white lampshade hats in favour of our new owners. Ultimately we did well finishing 10th and more investment was promised.

In 2019/20 season we got off to a poor start losing 4 out of the 5 first games and were bottom of the table. The Chinese owners sacked Wilder and appointed someone we'd never heard of from Outer Mongolia. It didn't help. We were relegated back to the Championship at the end of that season. Fans burned their lampshade hats in the car park and removed their shoes - taking care not to point their feet towards the owners because it's rude in Chinese culture.

The next three seasons we struggled to make any impact at the top of the table and Blades fans started attacking anyone in the street who looked vaguely Chinese.

Eventually the Chinese owners quit and the club was in the hands of a new investor. A Malaysian chappie.

The lampshade hats came out once more and Wilder was reinstated. His task now : to get us back to the Prem at first attempt.

He failed and was sacked again.

Meanwhile Mr McCabe unwrapped another Werthers original and sucked on it pensively - wondering what might have been - as he threw another wad of £50 notes on the fire to keep warm.

chinese will get us players from chinese super league
oscar costa messi are signed and we become world club champions , its just as likely

In 7 years? I should think Simmo's penalty will have reached the Andromeda galaxy by then.
