***Sheffield United vs Sunderland***

[James]

So that's Birmingham, Bolton and Burton all losing so all's not lost. We just need to finish 21st, I'd absolutely take finishing on 35/36 points and limping to survival as long as there's 3 worse sides.

My bet on us to win the league is looking unlikely to come in now, I'll admit.

It's still mathematically possible mind, few signings in January...

 

[Nil desperandum]

He picks the team. He organises the team. He motivates the team.

If I were him I wouldn't play half this team ever again.

Have you seen the under 23's?

 

[sonofagun]

I miss the rotten core, at least they had talent. I miss Sess, I miss you-know-who, I miss Bendtner, even Fletcher and Bardsley and Wickham.

 

[bedlington mackem]

Only cold comfort is that Burton and Bolton are currently losing. Not gonna matter if we can’t help ourselves though

And Birmingham !

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

Still makes you think why Short didn't address this in the Prem by bringing in quality to at least compete in the Prem. Really don't know what he was thinking just letting things slide and bringing in loans and freebies. The same thing is going to happen this year by going into league 1, the question is where does it stop?

He hasn't got the cash. Forget the £1bn net worth - he could only raise the money be selling investments.

 

[PS]

150/1 for this to finish 3-3

I'd give you 1000/1

 

[GiantHogweed]

Aye a big ripe floating turd that simply won’t flush away, just as your guests arrive for a party....

They like to leave a dirty bucket in the bowl.

It's something they are good at.

Problem is this side couldn't win an argument.

 

[zebediah]

We need half time so bad, but this is like Barnsley again so far

Starting to pine for the days like against Barnsley lol

Turned off, they are just taking the piss, red card coming up when one of our players gets all upset

 

[Liverpool Beachball]

A reminder that Jack Rodwell continues to bleed us dry on £60k a week, leaving us hamstrung next month

I hope his Christmas turkey was undercooked

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

We've made Duffy look like David Silva here. He's played most of his career in League One ffs.

 

[Mighty Boosh]

Is the pub over the road to away fans open now?

 

[daz]

Dropping out of the prem has all but killed this club,it's just a matter of time

Honestly can't see us recovering for a long long time unless someone is daft enough to buy us.

 

[deleted user 785]

For a net £1m. That’s about 90k per player.

Like I said, it’s embarrassing that some people still don’t understand what they’re watching. The same idiots will be shouting for Coleman’s head soon enough, and round and round we go.

I understand what I was watching and it was utterly pathetic and hopeless. It's a tad better under Coleman, we've at least looked organised at times. That was rarely the case under Grayson.

 

[Sundered Land]

I have not posted this prior but I was talking to a bloke who I know who was talking to a head of an arm funded and 'owned' by SAFC and he reckoned the Germans and Short have been in talks for months under the radar (and that's why nick Barnes got bollocked) and a deal could be completed January and that's why Coleman agreed to come.

I was sceptical but by god am I now dreaming even more.

Yea.

Won 2 of our last 5 before today including one of the teams we can realistically finish above.

Shows you how much work rate and desire can take you.

He probably couldn't trust the managers to bring anything else in but shite.

 

[bucksoutcast]

Good side tbf. Worse teams will do the double over us this season

It is the manner of the defeat that is of concern

 

[Boz33]

I feel for CC, got his work cut out massively with these fuckers.
Hope he's given some resources next week but even then, who's gonna come to us ??

That's the thing, the useless twats we can attract on a predictably low budget, are they going to be any better than the useless twats we have already with the real possibility of dropping again.
If I was a player I wouldn't want to risk it especially with possible wage reduction if we do drop
