    Welcome the messiah.. Russell Slade

    The appointment most people were hopeful of, literally the most realistic options available; a manager with experience of difficult off field situations and the lower leagues, a good motivator and man manager. I repeat he's literally exactly what we need and the best we could have realistically...

    What are former players saying

    What did McPake, Maddison and Cameron do? Little surprised at their involvement.

    Torch's Counselling Thread

    I appreciate I am late to the conversation and I do not regularly interact with you Torch, but I came across this thread tonight, which generated instant sympathy (really hope that doesn't sound patronising) and worry for a fellow SBT'er, but was also apt timing. Your positivity is reassuring...

    What do you think will happen january sales??

    I may have dreamt (hoped), but didn't TF, or maybe MV in the past, say there's some budget left over from the summer? Also if he releases or loans out players, that may also free up wages? But my initial post was based on logic, which is a pointless strategy to apply when attempting to predict...

    What do you think will happen january sales??

    Who and why? Yes SISU will want to sell but I can only see Stevenson generating any real cash so they will wait until summer when his value has increases.

    This club is dead

    The club isn't dead. We are absolutely struggling, we are in a terrible state with no obvious escape and we have owners who couldn't care what league we are in as long as income > expenditure. It will never die on fan attendance alone, we might get relegated but there will always be a core who...

    Fisher live on CWR.... the countdown begins.

    The massive worry is that they have no ambition or plans to change their business model or strategy. There's one objective and that is to break even, which they are currently doing and look at the state we are in. If they are happy to run us with that policy it literally won't matter what...

    What do you think will happen january sales??

    The only players who would command a fee or are good enough to play at a higher standard (either when on form or when potential is reached are): Stokes (but won't go due to injury) Willis (but is probably too inconsistent for someone to take a decebt gamble on) Bigi (when on form is better than...

    From A Sheffield United

    Appreciate your attempts but there is absolutely no excuses for your fans last night. Remember when you felt unfairly treated by the means of your relegation? Remember the anger you felt at the powers that be that allowed that to happen. We have that anger against the league AND our owners...

    Fisher live on CWR.... the countdown begins.

    At least he's actually turned up. He doesn't help himself with vague, generic answers. Statements mean nothing without evidence.

    Also not sure why Bigi is being picked out for criticism, especially ahead of the lies of Wright and Agyei. Admittedly his tackling is poor, but technically he's a good player. His long range passing can be disappointing, but he's heavily involved in play, never hides, is calm under pressure and...

    MV didn't come across particularly well inthat interview, it was Partridge esque, but in all fairness he was being interviewed as the manager so he has every right to want to discuss football. I agree he should have given an opinion, but he's stuck between a rock and a hard place. He's been...

    Protest

    I also saw Leon Clarke practically sprint off the pitch once he saw the fans coming. Can't blame him, but he's still a greedy tosser.

    Protest

    I saw some of the players (e.g. Sordell) talking to some of the protesters before they had to leave the pitch. All seemed pretty good natured, anyone know what was said?
