  1. We had a back three made up of an ageing full back, a youngster who wouldn’t normally be anywhere near the first team and another full back who’s been playing mostly in midfield. I do agree we shouldn’t have lost this game or the last one.We created but missed at least 3 easy chances in both games. Enough to have won both in spite of our defending, and against teams at the top end of the table. The reason for losing these games is not the manager but our last Owner who decimated the squad of players.Two of the Preston players on the pitch today were given away for free but would easily have made it into our starting 11 today.
  2. I thought there was all this facial recognition technology at Hillsborough now. Should be possible to identify those responsible.
  3. Too early to say. We need to know about any remaining embargoes and the plans of new owners.
  4. Spot on. Man U. want him given as much game time as possible in his favoured position. I’m pretty sure they would take a dim view of pushing him into positions that would hinder his development as a left wing back. . Let’s just be thankful for his patient club’s generosity which is the only thing that made the loan possible.
  5. So am I but I just have concerns about EFL dragging things out and who would take a non scoring striker on a pretty high wage.
  6. Might be easier said than done. Firstly the only way the administrators can make that sort of decision is if someone offers a fee for him to help pay off creditors. Second who would pay a fee for a striker without a league goal for well over a season. Last we may not have new owners in control in the next transfer window. If a consortium is involved the EFL fit and proper process may drag on while all parties are investigated. I have an awful feeling we’re going to be stuck with him for a while yet.
  7. I won’t blame Peterson for anything that happens this season. No manager in the world could turn this seasons results around with the players /hin the current squad. If we can get the remaining embargoes lifted we will still have to work within profit and sustainability rules so even next season will be an up hill battle in L1. Having said that though a new owner will expect progress having spent tens of millions. Depends who we get but new owners usually want their own choices in charge and running the club. Summing up I think and hope Peterson is pretty safe this season by will probably gone by this time next year.
  8. In a city the size of Sheffield sites could be found. If you really mean no suitable sites in and around the Hillsborough area then I would agree. If we are getting a new owner with big sums of cash available and real ambition to turn us into Premier League contenders then surely a new stadium with good transport links will be a priority. Sadly this would need to be away from Hillsborough but in my humble opinion would be a true sign of wanting to improve the status of the club.
  9. I never leave before the end even when we’re losing heavily. Just don’t see the point of paying over the odds then not seeing the whole thing. Seen too many fans miss last minute or stoppage time goals. Am I an old skinflint insisting on getting my moneys worth? Or a true dyed in the wool fan ?
  10. All well and good providing they have the very long arms to match.
  11. People like Ashley hanging back hoping for a £10 million bargain out of admin. With 10 interested bargain hunters gonna be disappointed .I suspect.
  12. You can get all that information and a free stadium tour from Begbies. Just show them evidence of your £50 million.
  13. Except that by cutting inside during Saturday’s game he scored a great goal. Think he realised centering from the byline to our current batch of strikers is a waste of effort.
  14. He’s going to be playing Premier League next season.
  15. Might just be that we have three players who spent most of their careers in full/wing back positions now trying to be centre backs.. As far as not conceding in the second half of games, well it might just be that opponents are so far ahead they just ease off. Let’s face it we don’t have the players available to compete effectively. Getting Charles Weaver and Bernard back would make a huge difference though.
  16. They’re gone mate but we desperately need all or some of Charles Bernard Weaver Chaloba and Brown back to fitness.
  17. The real value of any commodity is what someone is prepared to pay for it. None of us know who’s bidding yet but I suspect that the level of interest at this early stage means Simon Jordan might be in for a surprise.
  18. I remember him well when I was a North Stand season ticket holder. Used to get to where I sat at half time. I also remember a bloke wanting one for half price as half the game had already taken place. He laughed and said nice try NO.
  19. Their first duty as administrators is to provide the best outcome for the creditors so I would think his last statement is the correct one.
  20. That’s just the end date for offers and the date for sorting through the offers. Don’t expect anything for a few weeks after that.
  21. Amass is looking better the more he plays and so is Fusire after a shaky start at right wing back. Why ever Röhl thought he was a central midfielder beats me. The lad played mostly wide right before Röhl switched him. He looks more comfortable back in the position he’s used to and keeps getting into shooting positions.
  22. Went to Oxford game, first for a year, and apart from the result it felt wonderful.Can’t get there tonight but will be there for Blades game and many more now the fool has gone.
  23. Just because they’re not in the directors box doesn’t mean they’re not there.
  24. Certainly gave almost every 50/50 challenge. Think the refs are starting to have some sympathy for our situation.Especially after that Lumley dead cert penalty that the ref managed not to see recently
