Owls-Fan Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Always hoped that one day the sh*te years would be worth it as a rich person would buy us and make us the next Chelsea, or Man City. Or even Wolves. But now that dream has been shattered and we are just left with sh*te, with bigger sh*te times yet to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are not planning in someway for next season already and dont get the summer transfer window right then I predict relegation next season. From which division though? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i used to be sc_owl Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Appreciate DC took over in Jan'15, but I would assume we can agree his influence will not have fully kicked in until 15/16 season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the sole reason that you have deliberately omitted 2 good seasons to make it fit your agenda. Couldn't go back another year to make it a.4 year comparison as we were in League One. Including 16/17 but not 19/20.would not be a reflection of where we are now. No agenda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when I included the “missing years”, it still does not add up to £100,000,000+ of improvement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubleo Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 For donkeys years I’ve wished for a Chairman who could unleash the potential of this club by investing heavily in it. DC was that man, and he nearly did it. He tried. No one can argue with his commitment. But he was badly advised, naive, and maybe even duped by some closest to him. We are in a mess both on and off the field. I can’t see any way out of this, unless he sells the club, for at least 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRADDO Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 DC needs to do one. He's a disaster. Sadly, he won't as he's stubborn. He's taking us down and to oblivion. I'm convinced he will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With what I have seen since Wembley play off think we would have come straight back down and wasted even more money on some very average players. Would have been in the same or worse position 4 years on. Edited February 15, 2020 by matthefish2002 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beauchief Owl Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Blades could be playing Champions League football next season if Man City ban holds, whereas we could possibly be in L1. The biggest chasm imaginable, and possibly ever, between the two clubs. Even worse, we seem to be shambolic from top to bottom with little sign of turning things around at present. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you disagree with that? OR... it backs up your agenda perfectly. Do the full set and see what you get. Just not bothered... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
