Now unfortunately I've been moved down to Kent for this week so had to miss tonight’s game but I think as it stands we're down. Some will say that we've been down for a long time but you're talking to the bloke who chucked a bit of money on after finding us at 9/1 with a local bookies 4 days ago.
SO... I guess now the finger pointing can begin!
In my opinion this club has been in freefall since the removal of Neil Warnock and the appointment of Bryan Robson, sure there was moments of things turning around but in all honesty it’s been pretty much downhill BUT I simply can't help but look at Trevor Birch.
How can a man, who has overseen,
The biggest loss EVER to be achieved by Sheffield United
The biggest loss EVER to be achieved by a Championship club in a single financial year
The largest number of loan players ever to be used by Sheffield United
Followed by the second largest the season after despite promising to "learn lessons"
The worst win record as a % ever achieved by Sheffield United for a solid year
Relegation to the 3rd division for the first time in over 20 years
The highest employment of managers in single season
(IF rumours are to believed) The worst ST sales in over 9 years
The most disgusting, disrespectful and unimaginative ST sales campaign most of us have ever witnessed
Still be considered as the way forward in league where Chief Executives are generally considered as part of the club ie selling shirts in the shop etc etc.
When I say we're too big to be in that league I mean in the sense that our club and infrastructure is set up well beyond our means in League 1. What's going to happen now? We're generally in a mess and should we really trust the man (who for my opinion is a big contributor to our current predicament) to get us out of this mess.
