Wagner talking about being able to see the White Elephant Arena from The Cotwolds now :LOL:
Its like an extreme case of the psychology of men with small dicks buying big cars isn't it. This smarmy little prick must have a chode.

The problem Sheffield United have is they have a poor squad. They sold good players and brought in mainly low quality replacements.

They're good enough for mid table but not good enough to make the top 6.

Yeah it seems like it's a big ask for them to mount a play off charge given who they've lost.

Still some capable players but not a lot of goals in that team really on the face of it.

I think most probably expected a new manager bounce when Wilder came in but sustaining that form for an extended run is another thing entirely.

Back to Wasps getting 18000 with freebies, that was at the time we were dropping through league 1 and into league 2 without our own ground, and getting crowds of less than 10k

Their are probably people at the CBS now who were part of that for the ride, before it broke down, and now realise where the real party is, and I think that is why we now see a lot more girls and families at the game than probably 15+ years ago

The CBS is now a very safe place to watch football whatever sex/race / sexual orientation - Long may that continue, but that was previously one of the arguments people used to go to the Rugger instead

Is he asking for a HS2 esque planning hold up as the locals in the Cotswolds won't want to see a ghastly stadium like they didn't want to see a ghastly fast train

It’s all hubris - You can see the BT tower in Birmingham from afar if you look for it and no one gives a fuck

Blokes an embarrassment and he will have cherry blossom poisoning from the amount of bootlicking he’s had to do to politicians to get this stadium pushed through

But it took a run of something like 27 points from a possible 30 from memory. It can be done but that sort of run won't be achieved from a lower team often.
Most seasons there is a team that 'come from nowhere' to clinch playoffs. You had Forest in 21/22, us and Boro in 22/23, us and Bristol last season. In fairness, Bristol were in the top half but it was v strong home form that got them over the line - particularly against playoff teams.

With respect to ourselves, we ended the season with a stutter and we really should've finished 4th last season 7 points - our last away win was the 1st March v Oxford and going onto losing to Derby, Plymouth, Luton and drawing to Hull.

We also had the same players then as we do now with extra quality that have hardly played. It took us a manager change and ever since we haven't looked back.

I have a feeling it could be a high amount of points to usual to get to the playoffs. 10th place are averaging just over 1.5 points a game and 71 points for the season. Last season we had 3 clubs with a lot of points which reduced the amount of points available for the other clubs. This season there's us and maybe Middlesbrough that could pull away from the rest.

The Top 6 had more points at this point last season than this one and the table looks v similar. There isn't much variation between this season and last. It's far too early to consider anyone as 'favourites', for example, we're on the same points tally as Sunderland last season.
