  • Season ends dissapointing, miss out on play offs/lose in play offs
  • Sell 1 good player worth 1mill+, board says they'll reinvest
  • Manager gets sacked
  • New manager gets hired, this manager is the one, all the fans love him he WILL take us up
  • Every bookie has us as favourites to win the league
  • Season starts pretty well, flirt with 1st place for a few games, its all encouraging
  • Lose a few games on the spin, drop to 8th/9th stay there until December
  • Win a few games in december rise back up to 6th, this is still our year.
  • January comes we're still flirting with the play offs, but could do with a few signings
  • January Transfer window comes along
  • January Transfer closes and we sign one player on deadline day
  • February is a month where we win 4/5 but then it comes to an end at home against Fleetwood
  • May arrives and we miss out or get into the play offs

Rinse and repeat.
We're all Blades, aren't we?
 



Most of the fans normally don't love our managerial appointments. Sometimes, we accept them. (Robson, Heath, Weir, Clough, Wilson, Blackwell etc)
 
I have become a multimillionaire through laying bets on us to win the league.

Following the same strategy, in 5 years time I expect to be a trillionaire, after which time I shall buy Mars, and in collobaration with Jean Hatchett convert it into a refuge for battered sisters and otherwise disaffected wimmin.

Only thing that's getting worse is there's absolutely no entertainment at all on offer now.

And that's another merry-go-round, posters on here advocating the sale of Brayford because he's given too much to do in his position. Can only imagine the melt-down if he was sold.
