Nigel "Comical Ali" Adkins - time to go

[William Henry Foulkes]

It seems like the fans are definitely divided and entrenched in their opinions, barring a few drifters (mostly from INs to OUTs). Many of the arguments from the IN crowd are conceptual (continuity, long-term planning, faith, etc.) mixed in with a few (what I personally consider) unsound, apologetic points (not his players, he inherited an unmotivated and unfit squad, etc.). Many of the arguments from the OUT crowd are fact-based and can be supported by statistics. Both sides have merit but there's almost no point in arguing any more at this stage - we'll only get deeper entrenched. Quite depressing.

The Backfire Effect

Relegation? But when the club is being run like Fawlty fucking Towers then we could get Mourinho and still balls things up.

One thing is for sure having 2 owners has not made things any better than when McCabe was running the show on his own.

Nice pitch though.

To be fair, it is somewhat game changing. It's a bigger clusterfuck than it was before.

So he hasn't played offensive formations resulting in us scoring more goals?

With our plus 3 goal difference... Don't forget that

I''m not disputing the success of playing more expansively. I think with these players the best chance of success is playin 4-5-1 and boring everyone to tears. I was defending Clough last season, telling people that we weren't capable of a more attacking formation unless we sorted the cente backs and cental midfield. That basically we'd just ship too many goals.

This is Sheffield United. Do you think we're going to make a correct decision? He's well on his way to ruining the club, and what will we do? We'll let him carry on, because it's what's worst for United. It's what we do, it's been an established policy for a long time.

Unless it's a processing issue at Companies House it looks like they've forgotten to file the accounts for Blades Leisure and SUFC by the deadline.

Perhaps the new finance man is a Mr O'Reilly?

How good would it be to see Mcabe grabbing a branch and going postal on Sammon or Adkins

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

Who would you bring off our bench in order to change shape or personnel when chasing a game?

The fact that fans can ask the above question shows how far off his target the manager is.
