We had just finished 5th under Pearson and lost to Cardiff in the playoffs hadn’t we. With a strong back room set up, finances in order and a strong culture around the club. 
 

We are absolutely in a much much worse position now, throughout the club, than when they bought us.

Yeah I always thought it was confirmed over that summer but someone said a couple of weeks ago that it wasn't and it was in the middle of a season with us around 13/14/15th

All while they were showing another manager round behind Pearson's back!

 

No coincidence nothing improved until Pearson returned.

Just checked and it was 13th August 2010. After we had finished 5th. Obviously it doesn’t happen overnight and yeah of course there’d have been stuff going on in the months beforehand. 
 

But league positions fluctuate and the facts are, we got promoted from L1 and finished the season in 5th, before their takeover in August and subsequently removing Nigel and his team. We then went on to finish mid table (10th) in the full season after, brought Nigel back part way through the next season, I can’t remember where we sat when Sven was sacked but we improved to finish 9th. Then play offs again and won the league.

 

It’s a stretch to claim they were not a shambles in the first couple of years before going back to Pearson. And we certainly weren’t in a worse position, unless we recover to finish 5th or higher this season.

Not seen a mention of it here but allegedly, Sheffield United’s owners have contacted Sheffield Wednesday administrators, enquiring about purchasing the club, with the view to merging them into one Sheffield club. Gross.

Never in a million years

It’s essentially just folding the club and giving Sheffield united all your assets, I.e the worst imaginable scenario for Wednesday lol

Yeah, if it did happen (it won’t), yo could be that the ground would be an expanded Bramall Lane (central to the city) unless it was a newly built one somewhere. Hillsborough would’ve pulled down.

Other than Coventry, week in week out every single team is capable of turning the other over.

 

Never known such a weak/competitive season like it.

 

Sheff Utd currently in the relegation zone yet I still fancy them to go up via the play offs

This makes it a good league not a bad one.

Problem with it being such a crap league is we are only ever a win or 2 away from the play offs which is fine but we are so shite it wouldn’t be enjoyable to watch if we somehow end up there at the end of the season

This has potential to be one the most entertaining championship season ever. Teams are taking points off each other for fun.

 

Boring football is getting sussed out and its proper leveling things out .

 

Get some athletic boys in the team and get them in the box. Classic recipe for success
