Not quite but it was a question not a statement and you didn't answer. By what you have been posting that seems to be where you are coming from.

Lord Snooty Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 It's all ifs and buts. I thought he was the wrong man at the time. Nothing has changed that view. But I will always look back fondly on those times, even if it is always with one eye on the 'what if'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said he'd heard there might be redundancies. I told him not to worry. That you wouldn't dispense with your top posters. That it would be a last in first out situation. Then he pointed out to me that all the post rating totals had been wiped. Bringing us all down to a level playing field. Now I'm on a par with a spambot. I told him we should go on a neg rampage to restore some order. Then he pointed out the neg armoury had been shut. You're a twisted man Hargeaves. Twisted. I know how this goes. You'll interview us for our own jobs and I'll be replaced with someone cheaper. Past reputation points will mean nothing. Facist! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The squad he left us with, and every other aspect of the club was far worse off than what was left by Big Ron You're just applying your happy memories to the facts and trying to say forget the facts remember the nice stuff The facts all point to Sheffield Wednesday being way worse off on the day Francis was sacked, then the day he took the reigns So like 95% of every football manager ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
