Time to end the panic?

A poster in Facebook tonight

Watching the Sheff Star Football Awards and Wilder talking about looking forward to next season. This season gave him and the players great knowledge of the league now to get ready for next season

Same poster added

Also spoke about McCabe talking about the club at player of the year awards last night and all should be sorted with the club within the next few weeks

Sensible Posts like this offer nothing are not what we need right now.

Season tickets haven’t increased that much, so people can’t complain about that, though Keen Blade has done a great job ranting about the deadline

The new kit isn’t out yet, so how can we get excited or disgusted with that, though I might start a matchwinner kit manufacturer rumour

Wilder has assisted the forum doom mongers with his ownership comments and you’re coming on here posting sensible stuff? Unreal

Can I steal a march on you there mate?
Apparently, the club have decided on this for the new kit.
They're expecting to sell record numbers.......

Good o.p. and thread.

The forum general debate always needs threads that provide some balance.

I am still panicking though!

Stretch logical thought beyond breaking point.

Be horrified at minor incidents occurring when footballers are together in a group getting pissed.

Lose all sense of proportion.

I'm trying to find a way to protest against the doom mongers forever looking at the bleakest possible way anything can go.
Those that if CW said he was utterly content and prepared to sign for another 3 years would open threads saying veiled threats from CW if you read between the lines.

Just don't get how some live for looking for the bleakest future possible. Football should be about hope and a promise of better things ahead. We've had 2 seasons where we've finished a full division above where Adkins left us 11th in league one to 11th in the championship. And some are saying were going backwards now.

We will never achieve anything with so many dragging us back at every turn.

Quite right. We've just had one-and-a-half brilliant seasons which most fans would love, but not United. We don't want to be delusional like the S6 lot, just to cut down on the 'woe is us' stuff.

PS. Has Wilder gone yet?

 

[Bladezz]

Sunderland will announce there manager I would guess in the next week or so. I can see this being resolved in weeks / months which is in my opinion is the biggest issue.

 

[Rusty view]

You're too late! 'Brian The Blade' on FH last night was urging people to 'join me in the car park...zzzzzzzzzzz'. This is the bloke who wants to protest every time there's an 'r' in the month.

We're ok. It's May, June & July next

Where manager?

 

[blade too long]

Think your a bit nieve there blade too long ,
The club would stagnate if the ownership issue drags on.That's why wilder went public with his Churchillion speech,it needed doing as the owners know the impass will damage the club if not resolved,well done Chris Wilder.

naive me
been coming for 50 years
seen us do all sorts of shit

but no way do I GO THERE EXPECTING IT NOT TO IMPROVE
We have broken the mould over the past 2 season and moved forward
yes there are issues ,but we are not in a coventry SISU situation
or doing a Bolton Wanderers wallowing in debt
or a Sunderland with non caring owners

we have 2 men with differing outlooks on a way forward
not wanting to rip the club apart just with different ideas on the way forwad
As a club we are by comparison in rude health
we are not 50m in debt, we have owners who have kept us more or less on a level balance sheet

we do not look like we will struggle
on the field we can more than hold our own

who gives a shit aabout the boardroom struggle
let it resolve itself , either way we are not in danger

yes investment from someone with big money would be nice
but until it happens we go with what we have ,,,, as always

 

[I should coco]

if they get Appleton they deserve everything they get!

I believe it has previously been announced on here with great authority, that "Appleton is tomorrow's man".

With thanks to Roygbiv and the 'view from Oxford'. About as deluded a bunch of wankers, as we have ever had the misfortune to come across.

 

[finlaytheblade]

Agree with most of what you say but better to nip a problem early rather than let it fester.Wilder obviously could see things stagnating he has said his peace and if nothing else it will focus the owners on getting a deal done.
Important we kick on now we still have momentum but need strengthening in the window.

I wasn't panicking until this morning. My son uses snapchat (this forum and a bit of twitter being post 50 is all the social media I use). A contributor to Snapchat who is a shareholder posted this morning the extent of the Prince's plans. The Prince, he stated, intends to sell not only Shirecliffe but also Bramall lane (prime real estate close to the town centre), and re-brand the club. The Prince apparently asked McCabe to buy the Belgium club with him but KM said no. So I'm hoping KM wins this tussle and the Prince departs. I don't want success at any price, I don't want to leave Bramall Lane or be called something other than Sheffield United.
A fan told me in the line for tickets a season ago that his dad's ashes are buried behind the goal at the kop end. I guess he is not the only one that's the extent of the community that this club is, that the Prince apparently wants to ride rough shod over for a few quid. If we stand by and just do nothing we could lose the club we all love.

 

[wizadry]

Fans have concerns about the way the club is going if something isn’t sorted soon and are getting pelters for it, yet Wilder seems to have more concerns and gets no stick whatsoever?

Blades fans are a disgrace #3427.

There’s a difference between having a concern for the club you support and having a concern with something else in life in general, people need to differentiate the two and stop being daft.

Nice wind up there from that "shareholder"

I take it he has a personal hotline to Saudi

 

[Rawnblade]

Despite a few cynical replies, I appreciate you posting this Silent Blade. I wouldn't have been aware otherwise. The situation is a worry, and it's good to read something positive to help balance the negativity and overreaction.

He's been managing a few years now hasn't he? I know the saying goes "tomorrow never comes" but this is ridiculous. He's had more false starts than my old Vauxhall Chevette.

No apparently his hotline is to Kev McCabe.

don’t get the appleton fixation.. what’s he ever done?

Precisely !

There are thousands of shareholders in Sheffield United Ltd - a company which the Prince has absolutely nothing to do with - yet only one has heard of this? Yesterday we had "the Prince hasn't put any money in at all" bs and now this.

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Panic over, relationship back on track, Kop to be redeveloped, Wilder to be given an extended 5 year contract, a new Desso to be built on top of the existing Desso, and dogs to be welcomed into the ground.

 

[Sean Thornton]

And then he said, didn't you Kevin? Yes £1. That's all it's going to cost you....

 

[Addison]

My guess is that they will renegotiate their agreement

An interesting angle and one that could be the only solution to moving this forward. Remains to be seen if that will provide increased investment.
