Blimey thats a name from the past, welcome back.

How are you getting re-instated a friend of mine who I had many good debates with on here says he's still banned.

I'm surprised Building Control didn't ask for proof of what tiles were used if its a low pitched roof.

The fact that nearly half the club in the Championship have been embargoed shows that its a totally flawed system that isn't fit for purpose.

It did mention this game and showed a clip of them both in the dugouts, it didn't mention the final score though.

It was a fantastic documentary of a great, down to earth and humble man. A true legend.

Conceding goals hasn't been your problem, scoring them has, he's wasted what money he was given on making the side worse. The money wasted on Berge, Mousset, Brewster and McBurnie could have strengthened the backline if thats where you were short on players.

You've a £23m striker who couldn't get a game, you can't be that short on players.

The other teams in the Prem have played under the same conditions, he's had more to spend than most but has wasted it on mediocrity, Sean Dyche has shown how to manage in the Prem with lesser rescources, its not an excuse for such a deadful season.

Seems he isn't "one of our own" as much as some fans thought.

Quite predictably it looks like Alan Knill is the next one to leave the sinking ship, didn't travel to Chelsea yesterday.

I have to be careful what I say replying to your posts but the Prince wasn't savvy in building a Premier League club, he got lucky when McCabe appointed Wilder, he was hardly even seen at the Lane for years. You've also said in your post that the parachute payments are swallowed up by the loan (that you previously said didn't exist) so with no (or limited numbers) of fans in the ground where is the money coming from?

Two very poor sides, what a pathetic relegation this is, going down without even a fight.

His quote was - "first team starters are on £40-£50/55k". I've heard from an ex-player that it was Stephen Bettis who was the main instigator in Wilders removal. Whoever takes on the hotseat next season will certainly have a tough job on to win over the fans and he won't have a huge budget at his disposal.

Kevin McCabe would be perfect.

You were all lauding Phipps for muttering platitudes when he was still directly involved with the club, whatever his beliefs he's much closer to the Prince than me or thee.

Jim Phipps who's a friend of the Prince said that first team starters were on £40-50k a week.

He's got a mortgage on the ground and huge loan to pay, I doubt he's going anywhere anytime soon.

One of the best first halves of the season, kept the Leagues form team at bay and Rhodes with a typical poachers goal. Long way to go yet but encouraging.

Well thats it then, Wilder came from success with lower league clubs to manage his former team, a shaky first few games paved the way for what was a fantastic run, promotion from L1 in his first season, consolidation in the Championship in his second which included the Blades biggest game in 40 years where they beat Yorkshires most successful club 2-4, another promotion followed and a very unexpected and noteworthy 9th place finish in the Prem, unfortunately this is where it all fell apart, big money signings like Ramsdale, Berge, McBurnie, Moussett, Brewster etc have all been major flops and this coupled with poor form and injuries has led to this season being record breaking for the wrong reasons. He's given the Blades some great memories but perhaps his time to depart was the right one, he can go onto to rebuild his reputation in the SPL and perhaps have another crack at the Prem in a few years with one of the big boys.

Wouldn't surprise me at all if he ended up at Celtic, would be another forward step in his career.

A lot of United fans have said that your wage policy (if its as low as rumoured) was a good thing, its just cost you your best manager for decades.

I think he's lost the dressing room and the owners don't trust him with spending big, something has to be deeply wrong to have such an unprecedented bad season as this one.

Memories of Murder is great.

Neither Sheffield club has much to shout about success wise but the Owls have the upperhand, whats happening now is that both teams are very, very poor.
