    Sheffield United & their Wealth of "depth".....

    "They have a "wealth" of depth and are miles ahead of us......" "Steve Simonsen brilliant much better then Murphy"....recent comments from posters. I disagree with these points but I may be wrong...let's take a look at the news. Sheff Utd release 11 in a bit to half the wage bill for...

    Why oh why the Mass Hysteria!

    Not sure would bet on us to win the league......but do not think Sheff Utd are "miles ahead" of us either.

    place Your bets

    Sheff Utd favourites.....hmm,,,,,a team that has scored eight goals in their last 11 games....and have just been crushed by a play off defeat on penalties......will see what happens pre-season but I would not be lumping my money on them currently!

    Why oh why the Mass Hysteria!

    Disagree with you on quite a lot of your comments, IMO Murphy better than Simonsen and has international caps to prove it Montgomery would be nowhere near.....he is nowhere near sheff utd's first team nowadyas when Macdonald is fit Porter.......give me strenght he is useless......Cresswell hard...

    Why oh why the Mass Hysteria!

    I completely disagree that we are miles behind Sheffield United with out current team, in fact I think we are arguably just as good if not better. Taking the teams as they are now let's have a look Cov Murphy Husssey Clarke Cameron Keogh Baker Bell Deegan Bigi Mc Sheffrey Mc Donald Subs...

    Why oh why the Mass Hysteria!

    I can see why there is some panic as I said in my opening sentence but lets see what develops in the next month. There are also not many 30 man squads in league 1 that do not involve at least a proportion of youth or loan signings to boost the coffers. I think people expecting a 25 man squad...

    Why oh why the Mass Hysteria!

    I can understand an air of panic but people on here are becoming slightly to prone to panic as we are nowehere near the beginning of next season!!! A lot has to happen between now and then, the first of which is finding out realistically which players out of contract are willing to stay and...

    How big do people think a league 1 squad needs to be!!!!

    Even premier league sides are restricted next season to naming 25 players! I am seeing some posters on here stating we should sign 18,,,,,,which would take us up to a bout a 45 man squad in league 1 as cannot see many leaving! Current Squad Goalkeepers (3) Joe Murphy - Might go but under...

    With the Thorn comment 'We've picked up quite a few injuries'

    I think all teams will have players that have picked up knocks at the weekend, this is just a fact of life and we have to get on with it. I suspect that quite a few players with "knocks" will patch themselves up for Tuesday and rightly so. I think Millwall now safe may choose to blood some...

    The question is the squad good enough

    Hmm a lot of people here as usual twisting facts and telling half or three quarters of the story here most of them to support Thorn surprise surprise! This question is always subjective, should the squad be strong enough to survive in this division - imo yes they should and a more experienced...

    Do we cheat???

    Nothing wrong with a bit of professionalism along the way - all teams do it sounds like a decent compact away performance which came just at the right time. Our home games are massive now mind.....teams may well "cheat" in same way at our place now given our improving home form....just have to...

    Hi kg82 yes I get your point. I think in your mind Sisu were 100% behind the Juke deal entirely and neither the player or Andy Thorn had any involvement in the transfer? If that is entirely correct then I understand entirely your viewpoint and probably would support it. However...... I think...

    Me too Houchen me too! :p I think your defence of the op was admirable though misplaced......the whole sisu debate that has kicked off from his initial statement sort of proves it. Why oh why did he have to mention SISU? :o On a positive note our form is good at the moment........but as...

    My point is that most transfers are for a mixture of financial & footballing reasons. I am sure I do not have to trawl through volumes of sky blue history to find prevous owners selling players partly for financial reasons........Robbie Keane, Bellamy, Dublin, Kirkland, Speedie....the list goes...

    Fair enough kg82 but surely anyone can see names listed by coundon sky blue were how shall I put it very wrong in terms of a reply about players bein "SOLD" for money? No-one has come back to me with a counter argument saying I am wrong and those players listed were sold for lots of...

    Hmm Coundon sky blue with those list of players you have made yourself look a tad foolish! How many of those were sold......??? Hmm sold/released are two different things. Of your list I think only Borrowdale may have fetched a fee the rest were/will be released at the end of their contract...

    What player ever is sold from a club for "football" reasons......? Particularly most clubs who have to sell and barter and balance the books. Regarding Juke the financial side definitely played a part but also think that Juke's head was turned by Middlesboro and he wantd to go anyhow. In...

    It basically boils down to would you rather have Juke, Eastwood, Mc Pake & Rod vs Norwood, Nimely & Herman. You can't have them all we have lways been a seliing club to varying extents since I have been supporting us. Everyone mentions losing Westwood, King, Gunnar etc but we did not get much...

    Houchen's head you have made yourself look a bit of a moron with that statement! If he was "having a bit of fun" as you put it then there would be no need for the sisu comment at all......I also did not see any smileys at all after he made the remark therefore not a bit of fun he was being...

    Jordan Clarke, a star in the making.....

    Have to say was certainly not his biggest fan........but he was excellent against Watford away, was not at Pompey or Cardiff unfortunately but he has earned rave reviews for these games as well! Happy he is proving me wrong long may it continue....need all start xi in top form for the remaining...
