A year after signing the likes of Dean Hammond, Martyn Woolford and Connor Sammon the club brought in John fleck and Jack O’Connell on the same day along with Mark Duffy, Jake Wright and Leon Clarke in a transfer window that would transform the next decade.

We’re probably getting relegated tomorrow. We’ll take our medicine, but I’ll never stop believing in the club ⚔️
 

I hope we can make some top signings this Summer, but there's so much uncertainty around the club right now.
Owner wants to sell, manager with 1 year left on his contract... the fact you'd be joining a whole bunch of players that have never played together before, and starting on -2pts due to cash flow problems. It's a pretty tough sell.

Last time we had a complete reset, as you have outlined, we went down to the 1st division and languished there for half a dozen years.

Maybe the same will happen again, but we will be back.

And along the way, we will have some great triumphs, exciting cup runs, and no doubt grab the headlines again for good and bad reasons - never a dull moment being a blade!
 
Yes, things can change very quickly, we go from being shit to being absolutely vile, dog turd, vomit shit and then back to being merely shit quite regularly

..and in between we take Imodium
 
No, no, no, a year after finishing 6th in the first division only 4 points off the league champions...... oh wait!
We would have been a great “and what happened next” on Question of Sport. Definitely not the answer most would expect!

Hardly believable how we manage these falls from grace. Actually more plummets than falls!

I’ll probably be dead. I hope you young uns enjoy it. And if there is an afterlife I’ll be waiting for Don Givens to turn up so I can deck him.

The only certainty is the rollercoaster goes up and down. I think a bad start with a lot of young players and Wendy going ahead of us won’t bode well.
 
We didn't spend a fortune then either. But we did completely overhaul the squad. We have the same opportunity again, and if done well it can have a similar impact. Anything could happen next season. I'm confident we would recruit well, because it's obvious what we need to do. It just depends if the money people can be arsed to get to work early rather than leave us scrambling for the scraps

To be fair mate the only certainty supporting dem Blades for 50 odd years has been the abundance of uncertainty 😜
