Dear Cobbler
Thanks for asking about us. I think it's great that your team are also doing well. It's a big step up from L2 to L1 and you're more than holding your own. How much of that is down to the foundation Wilder laid and how much down to another ex Blade, Robert Page, I don't know but you must owe us all a pint surely?
I once went to your ground. "Sexfields" they call it don't they? It only had 3 sides so I loved it instantly as ours used to be the same when I first started watching dem Blades. It's tough playing on a triangular pitch though so I hope you move to a rectangle soon, if you haven't already done so?
I think you should ignore our brief winless run at the start of this season. There was never a problem- although some on here would have you believe different. I think we were excellent in the opening game at Bolton, ridiculously unlucky in the two that followed and literally beat ourselves through stupid errors in the other. That's not a crisis - it's just football - but for some fans it was a disaster. We had some dickheads saying the job was "too big" for Wilder after just 2 games FFS! I'm sure you've got your fair share of morons too so you'll know what I mean.
Facts are Wilder is a very good manager. He's turned the squad over with a pitchfork and has got players here who feel they are lucky to be here and want to give everything for the shirt. Totally different approach to recruitment to his tosspot predecessor.
Not only that, but there's no favourites. Play bad and you're off the pitch, or dropped. And he's a totally straight talker which we love and expect. It's part of the culture here in Sheffield.
We lack a bit of bite in midfield and pace up top - but I've seen enough personally to convince me already that we have got the right man in the right job -AT LAST! And the Blades are going up!
