1. Appoint a Director of Football to oversee everything else that doesn't need to be done by the manager to give him more time to devote to the first team matters.
2. Get in an established lower division manager who has enjoyed some success in the lower leagues, and someone who knows what the club is about, and what the fans crave. Someone like Chris Wilder would be a brave appointment but i think it would work
3. Get back to basics on the pitch, a direct, up and at em style works for Sheffield United, and in my lifetime we have had more success playing a high tempo direct style of football. This passing football looks good when it achieves results, but looks bloody awful when it doesn't. If we are serious about getting out of this division then we need teams to come to the Lane and know they are going to be involved in a battle.
4. Appoint a decent fitness coach. A lot of the side seemed to have ran out of steam early on games last season, and this is why there was an apparent lack of effort and conviction. Give the fitness coach instructions to work the players as hard as he possibly can, so we can kick off the season with the fittest team in the league, and be ready to hit the ground running.
5. A new strikeforce. I think we could get Darius Henderson back as the focal point of our attack, think he is out of contract and would be ideal for a side looking to batter their way out of League 1, strong, direct and a huge physical presence, and also a lot better footballer than people give him credit for. Would be the ideal man for the job.
