I've noticed this trait in you....losing an argument so I'll chuck in some shite like this.
Pathetic
 
Hear Hear.

'Understands the club' - bollocks isn't it.

Give me a 30 minutes presentation of how you will get a team that finished 3rd last season set up and playing. Simples. There's nothing more that's needed. I don't care if you were a ball boy or once shagged a prossie on Mappin street whilst wearing a Blades shirt. I want to know you're going to set us up and get us playing in a positive way, and your going to develop my young assets (Peck, Burrows, Seriki, Arblaster etc) to a point where I can get £25m for each of them...
Err ... i happen to qualify on two counts against your above criteria . Any chance i can get an interview (ps - I've still got the shirt)

Thanks for paying close attention to my posting. Genuinely humbled by that. Maybe getting so wound up and agitated as you clearly are, is the pathetic thing here though?

Back on topic..,How am i losing an argument? Just because your assertion that because it works with arguably the greatest tactical manager of the past 20 years, at the richest club in the world - then we should mirror their infrastructures and processes here?!?!?!

I can't even begin to engage with such a ridiculous counter argument.

Enjoy your Sunday kidda...
 
I can see it now. Instagram video of the managers office door. It opens, and Wilder appears with a big beaming smile.

Rinse and repeat until he’s got a zimmer frame.
 
The issue is so much bigger than Selles. His staff are not up to standard so even if sacking Selles you have two guys with no experience taking over.

If Des has left that leaves one man with experience of making football decisions, which is Steve Bettis.

Who is going to interview a new manager and staff? Is this in the hands of Bettis because my guess would be the owners don’t have much knowledge of any manager we interview.

This is the guy who thinks he does a great job and there isn’t a need for a director of football.

Whoever the next manager is, it will be a punt due to the lack of experience left at the club.

To finish, the worst decision Selles made was letting Lester go. He needed that link to the players but even now they don’t have someone to go to for their frustrations due to them not respecting his coaching staff.

It’s a fuck up
Alleluia someone on the same page as I've been saying for months. The club will not move forward whilst Bettis is running the show. He came out publicly against a Director of Football last year under the previous owner and we still don't have a DoF now under the new owners. With the new owners wanting a change of direction it was an ideal time to bring in an experienced DoF and put in a "modern" structure and clear strategies just like the vast majority of clubs in the UK and Europe have had for years. It's the old story of some people having power and not being able to relinquish any of it. Putting Bettis on the board has made his "power trip" even more powerful.

One was ok when he came on infact he was better than Barry for me.
Campbell was poor you even admit that, so changing him for Cannon was the right decision. The fact Cannon never touched the ball after falling over in the penalty area is not Selles fault, Campbell was equally poor and doesn't look interested.
Bringing Cannon on was entirely Selles decision. Cannon has no positional awareness, no movement and a touch like Fred West. He is slow in deed and thought and until his performances improve, he shouldn’t be anywhere near the first team.
 
Misrepresentation about Bettis’ DoF comments. He said there were no plans for a DoF in early 2024. When Chris Wilder, a man totally opposed to working with a DoF, was our manager.

Apologies for using facts.

I wasn’t using his interview comments as for when he said it. And no to your next question

And Campbell yesterday and previous games was virtually non existent.
So he swapped one bad forward or the other bad forward, what else could he have done.
 

This

Bottom line though is he’s not addressed any of the weaknesses in the system . He’s Playing player out of position, a midfield which isn’t balanced and ignoring obvious solutions to that and as a result we can’t buy a result a goal and barely even a chance.

Feels like he’s done. But no one has covered themselves in glory, not COH, Not Selles and certainly not the players.

The likes should be for Bladeinleeds , all l did was highlight his post.

I don’t know, maybe brought Danny Ings on, there was only 25 mins, or so left. I’m sure he could have managed that and to that point, when he did eventually bring him on with 10 minutes left, he had more creative moments than Cannon has accrued in the entirety of last two games. He even managed a shot on goal!!!!

I will agree with you about Campbell though, he looks like a mardy kid whose been told he can’t have an ice cream, barely broke into a trot all game and was moving like he’d had every vertebrae in his lower spine fused together.

All very depressing when you think about our attacking options really.

campbell has shown no interest all season but do think hes frustrated at the lack of support i think a front 2 of him and ings could be very productive but first selles if hes here long enough has to admit hes got it wrong and change the system which clearly isnt working we should go 3412 thats the set up that suits the players in our squad
