gutted

[jacknat]

that i believed and have defended blackwell, so my judgement is also very much in doubt..

i left a match early tonight for the second time in 32 years of supporting the blades...i missed the last 2 goals...the ones that will paper over the cracks

we were dire...sorry i mean shit

we have topped it off by signing richard cresswell on loan.

i will still go and still love the blades.....but it's starting to wear thin...please please please....play football and rely on skill and not hard work...we have the players to do this....but maybe not the manager.

amen to that jack

Spot on.

If we want to go back to the Warnock days of signing no marks that put in a 110% but have no quality fair enough but I thought those days had gone. Although we slowly seem to be going backwards obviously down to money but also when we have spent money we have pissed most of it up against the wall on average or unproven players.

I dont know where we are going as a football club but I think the business side of it is content with keeping the status quo in this league for a while.

the most important factor is that the club is splitting in two between the old school types like myself who like to see a game of football for their well earned cash and those who just want to see a win.. i'm seeing more and more arguing on the terraces (some pretty close to punch ups)..
ive never known united fans to be so fickle.. i think they can see this style isn't going to get us anywhere.. there's also some goings on behind the scenes.. the fact that howard left.. hendrie was never given a chance.. evans looks fed up already and cotterills confidence is shot to pieces.. we wouldn't stump up 75k for camara.. we must be skinter than they are making out..
we need someone to reunite the club

 

[jacknat]

i think the business side of our club is paramount...i for one don't like it

 

[super_pig]

what has annoyed me is that kevin left us obviously short at the back and up front at the end of the transfer window.. some of us speculated that if we got a few injuries we'd be toast.. so wardy (our best player IMO)out .. killa out and voila.. the two recent loan signings smack of desperation and poor forward planning.. thats your department Kevin.

under Warnock didn't we get promoted to the premiership or did i dream that?

tonight was bad but we pulled a point out of it while WBA lost and so did BORO we are 4 points off 2nd and last season we would have lost this game.

To this point we didn't want to pay his agent 75,000 not the player the agent wanted more money than the player to sign for the club. And I fully support us not paying some lazy twat who is helping down turn the sport by ripping off clubs and players they have under there supposed best interest.
75,000k to sign till January that was too what the hell does some fat cat deserve 75,000k for he isn't playing on the field and doing the hard work.

If Camara was truly bothered about playing he would have told the agent to get lost and signed anyway.

 

[super_pig]

75k is peanuts at this level.. these fees although a little hard to swallow get paid all of the time.. it was an interesting moment to make 'a stand' over this issue wasn't it?

I don't like to criticise the club but I am going to put my head on the block and say 'We will never get promotion with Blackwell in charge'.
He makes NW and Bassett look like master tacticians.
Hopefully that's the cue for us to start playing football and go on a 36 game unbeaten run and win the bloody league.
Also, if Ched Evans is a £3m player, Jamie Ward must be worth £30m.
When is he going to put a shift in ?
Just shows that there is talent to be found in the lower leagues who actually want to go out and give 100%.
Richard Cresswell.................has it really come down to this ? Still let's hope he does bang a few in for the time he is here.

Its 75000k to some fucker who doesn't desvere it, So I think they should make 'a stand', not only was it one fat cat but there were more fat cats involved if we had accepted the first 75000 they may have shifted the goal posts again wanting another 75000 for another fat useless twat. I think its a dam good time for us to make 'a stand' why should our club be held to ransom by an agent or agents?

>Its 75000k to some fucker who doesn't desvere it
heh..that won't wash.. the world is full of fuckers that don't deserve it (banking sector.. royal family).. i think you have to be a realist in these situations.. for such a trivial amount we should have just took it on the chin and grumbled accordingly.. if he'd have scored ten goals this season it would have been a decent investment

I no there are these people everywhere, but these agents have also played a down turn in this very sport and why stupid money money is being cart horsed about everywhere.
I think it washes perfectly, 75000k in these times in no small amount and its 75000k which can go to a better cause within the club and not lining some rip off merchants dirty trouser pockets. I don't buy that we should throw our money around aimlessly to agents just to bring a player in who may or may not improve the squad, and as stated if that player was truly committed to signing he would have told the agent to sling his hook.

 

[super_pig]

75k to a club with a turnover in the tens of millions is nothing. that was two weeks wages for james beattie.. but fair play, i admire your attitude though

 

[Guesty]

What annoys me is that we survived our very difficult opening set of fixtures only to lose points to mediocre at best teams!

Better than losing to your rivals, I suppose.

 

[Wilnecote Blade]

we were dire...sorry i mean shit

Couldn't have put it better. It was like the team had eaten a load of stodge just after the warm up whereas Ipswich were on speed.

 

[super_pig]

speed.. what is that then? we were never offered that at the monestary where i studied <laugh>

It was like they had eaten alot of bunns before the game.
