After watching Rotherham against Sheffield Wednesday. Rotherham are everything we aren’t… bigger, stronger, faster, more physical, braver and definitely more suited to get out of this league.
This is the template/ tactics/ style of play required to get promoted.
Admittedly not pretty but very effective at this level. We will remain in League One until the philosophy changes for the short term.
Playing out from the back is for the likes of Man City etc, our personnel are just not up to it.
Having watched Sunderland at Rotherham, I already knew that. They embarrassed us, then we knew we were fighting for second place. Then Cheltenham embarrassed us and we knew we were fighting for a playoff spot. I'm losing confidence of achieving that. The famous PPG has us finishing seventh.
 
Rotherham arent up yet by the way. Not by a long chalk.
Yes they are. At the Rotherham game at least three of your lads would have walked into our team. Not a single one of our team looked capable of getting into the Rotherham team.

I said after our 2nd half collapse at Rotherham, that you will win the league.

Speed down the wings, sound defence, constant harrying and crosses raining in form both open play and free kicks. It's not beautiful to watch but in League 1 it's highly effective.

Beautiful to watch if it's your team

Maybe because they have men playing for them
and we have children
 
I watched Dave Bassett's Blades go from Div 3 to the First Division in successive years so know what you mean.

I'd rather watch a great passing team winning, but I wasn't complaining when we did the double over Wednesday in our first meeting back in the top division.
Bobby Bastard Davison!!

totally agree, this ridiculous philosophy has got to go, who gives a f ck how we get out of this league just do it
 
Our recruitment of defenders is really poor and we seem to go for injury prone lads
Huggins , Arbi, Cirkin , Willis, Bailey-Wright . And now Batth on the list .
No wonder we leak goals . Needs sorting asap.
