How do you 'win some fucking games'?

I know the vast majority of winning teams achieve that very desirable objective by recruiting more talented players and playing better football than the opposition. History, despite the odd blip like Wimbledon, proves that proposition conclusively.

Do you have a different idea?

Christ some fall into the trap like lemmings off a cliff. Woo "tufty" says nice things people want to hear about "working class" and graft and we reach for the Kleenex. This is just first grade club propaganda and is probably the easiest hour or so any of the gimps around the table will ever have.

We will have a clue about the things that really matter after Bolton, which is going to be fucking tough. Come through that and then let's see. Then the next one, then let's see who is left after the transfer window, and on.

What would be your answer if you were him?

I'm not sure what his thoughts are on Ramsdale and his ability to push Long. Perhaps he'd have addressed that within his answer.

A minimum of 51 games with two young keepers is a lot to ask. I'd like a more experienced keeper in the mix to develop and challenge long/Ramsdale.

But how embarrassing it would have been to ask for Wilders input...

Do you know about Long's contract that was offered by Adkins and how Wilder dealt with with this? It was posted in here, last week I think. It seems Wilder doesnt rate Long as much as Adkins did but it seems he is giving him a chance to prove that he is good enough for regular starts. Your question would be too difficult even for Alistair Campbell to answer.
 
I'd prefer Wilder to give Long a chance of competing with another experienced keeper. At the moment he's almost got a get of jail free card.
I don't think Ramsdale will be the pushing force yet to keep Long on his toes.
Seeing as Long missed the majority of competitive games in the pre-season, surely giving him a chance to prove himself.....if it doesn't go well......will leave us in a position where the window has shut and unable to rectify the problem.
It looks like a huge risk atm.
 
Talk is cheap and I think Wilder knows it. This is an event he has to do. Unfortunately he can't fall back on the "eu não falo Inglês" when he doesn't like the question like the waiter does. Proof of the pudding will be on the pitch. Its a game of wait and see. Let's hope we don't get over-run in midfield and Georgie Boy doesn't freeze like a rabbit in the proverbials like he did in the first game last season. Sounded to me that Adams was our player "for now", but not much longer.
 
Why would i entertain Radio Sheffield.
I never tune in, its in my opinion anti United and yet you still get people biting the carrot and ringing in and being fed lines hoping that they will bite.
Crap journalism. When it becomes unbiased ile tune back in.
But at present i am missing nothing

I didn't mention sexy football. I'm talking about teams with the most talented footballers, passing the ball to each other with point and purpose, winning far more often than not. It's hardly a revolutionary proposition. Is there a parallel football universe where the champions and trophy winners are the teams with the worst players playing the poorest football?

You are allowing yourself to fall into the trap that proper football and winning football are mutually exclusive. The best footballing teams very rarely have soft centres. They have as much commitment and will to win about them as any upanatem, muckanettles outfit. They just manifest it in a way light years ahead of Getstuckin and Gerrituptfield.

Ultimately, be it the so-called "Champions League" (it isn't) or the Conference, the better teams will prevail. That's how league tables work over nine months.

I'm still not clear as to your alternative. Firearms? Bribery? Kidnap?

Was just a friendly chat really....

couple of bits from CW

- No bids for Brayford
- Mentioned a midfielder (covering basham) / attacking midfielder when asked if we were still looking
- No mention of new CB (so would assume Wilson and O'Connell are first choices now)
- Che is ours for now.

Yes - he swerved the goalkeeper question completely that was asked at the start as well.

These guys are clearly all trained in how to talk for 2 minutes at a time without saying anything. In a format like this he needs to do that 4 times and then he can go home and think about his proper job.

The media side of it really is a waste of everyone's time these days. Just a bit of game where journos have to ask (because it's their job, and managers have to answer without saying anything.

Then I come on here and read endless analysis of the bland answers given. Bring on the action, then he'll have some real questions to answer or he'll be basking in a win and it won't really matter what he says

I think there's a difference between things like last night and interviews prior to and following games. The latter I find interesting for the useful information like; injuries, formation and thoughts on the opposition before games, and then just the general reaction I think many are keen to watch/listen to after games. Q+A's, ask the manager's and other such pointless events like last night however, are just that.

Your missing the point, we played so called good football last season and what we saw was a load of spineless pussies getting turned over by teams with more commitment. What we need is a team of big nasty fuckers who kick anything that moves we also need a big fucker up front who can kick the shit out of the opponents central defenders and play the winning direct long ball football where everyone gets stuck in and stuck in hard that gets results instead of fucking about with so called good football. It was good enough for Basset and sir Neil

Fucking hell are you for real? I think Pinchy says it elsewhere, entertaining football and winning aren't mutually exclusive. We can play a high line, we can have a tough midfield and we can pressurise high up the field, but we can pass to feet as well. Good, winning football is about making the right choices when you have the ball, whether that be a long ball down the channel or a short ball to an available team mate.

I think you are mistaking the past few years as good football. It wasn't it was shit played by shit players. Nothing to do with long ball, short ball etc. This is just a myth people want to believe.
 
What is hard to understand is at the start of every new campaign .surely there should be some hope that this could be our year.
Its what I thought football was about.a little excitement we might achieve something .
I cant see the point in being associated with something if it makes you a miserable whinge bag.year in year out .but some thrive on it .I always start afresh .new season new manager new players new hope.surely its why you become a fan.isnt it

I know a girl who trains most of the local clubs in media not far from my office in Attercliffe. She told me that all the local managers have regular sessions in media training and all are very keen to learn and take it on board ,as are the local rugby ,Ice skating ,basketball teams and Athletes. However when it comes to players 50% are keen to learn but the rest just piss about and have no interest ,in her words are juvenile. I asked to name names but she wouldn't but did say Utd and Donny were the worst culprits as Wendy have many foreign players who are willing to learn.
 

wonder if we will have less turnover of managers this season as 12 months ago radio Sheffield had Paul Dickov Dean Saunders Steve Evans Nigel Adkins Carlos Carvijal & Lee Johnson

Paul Dickov - sacked 8th sept
Dean Saunders - sacked 28th nov
Steve Evans - sacked 28th Sept
Nigel Adkins - sacked at end of the season
Carlos Carvijal still there
Lee Johnson - left Bristol City 6th Feb
