For me a owls supporter since the late 60s the current set up is on a par with the change in mood that Jack Charlton brought in.Not in the sense that he was a bigger name than Laws but the atmosphere and attitude of the suppoerters has changed.When Atkinson and Francis build that great team and brought us success i think the supporters rightly thought we would kick on.The problem is that all clubs go thro cycles of change and in my opinion when Pleat took over we were on a downward curve.Add to that the depature of our parasite chairman and you go into free fall.The outlook is looking better but things need to be done gradually and youngsters"local if possible" brought in and given time.Id also like to see a couple of out of contract prem players brought in to add some exp in to help the younger end.Sheff utd have a couple of decent players but i dont think there squad was or is strong enough for them to win the championship but the play offs will be well withihn there grasp.The owls will hopefully push on and with a couple of new faces give anyone in the lg a game.Who knows this time next season.Up the owls.:)
