    "One bad decision doesn't define your season but continual bad decisions gets you relegated"

    Correct But you also add into the mix that the longer it goes on, the harder it is to make good decisions because you're picking from an ever dwindling group of players

    Genuinely Excited

    He's more than just one body too in reality. He's a body that plays literally every minute. Never needs to be rested or replaced and never injured. I appreciate we can all argue as to why this is the case but we'd be hard pressed to find someone like that again.

    "One bad decision doesn't define your season but continual bad decisions gets you relegated"

    We've got a hard run of 10 games now where we play 8 of the top 12, Stoke and Preston. On current form you can't see us picking up a lot of points there. We've then got 3 home games against Derby, Plymouth and Hull with Sunderland away in between the latter two. Those three games will be vital...

    Death Threats now then đź‘€

    Unpopular opinion perhaps but modern technology has really taken the art out of death threats. It used to be that someone would have to painstakingly cut letters out of a variety of newspapers before pritt sticking them onto a sheet of A4 and sending them off by post. Nowadays, any clown with...

    Sheffield Utd after Harry Darling?

    They're no world beaters but are probably two of our better performing players. Which says it all....

    Whatever your thoughts on Grimes….

    It's this for me. I couldn't really care less that Grimes the player is leaving and had this been the summer, under a new manager, I think things would have been different. I guess you would question why a bloke who has three very young kids and his whole family living close by (apparently)...

    Whatever your thoughts on Grimes….

    That's a fair point and it's the opposite to how it used to be. We used to be the ones picking up the shite players from elsewhere and turning them into world beaters. I don't trust Coleman to get the appointment right. I don't think we have the money to get anyone decent. I don't think anyone...

    Agree. The players have just cracked on with it since the WBA gossip with no apparent ill effects.

    Whatever your thoughts on Grimes….

    Possibly to some extent, yes. Although I'm not at all convinced any new manager will be any better, for a number of different reasons.

    Whatever your thoughts on Grimes….

    This is where our dreadful transfer dealings come home to roost. All this dross we've spent millions on, costing us tens of thousands of pounds a week with no prospect of making any money when we sell them. This is that catching up with us. Next stop League One.

    Captain Grimes on his way to Coventry City?

    Some people think this is football manager. There's a fair chance that most of the money we get from selling Grimes will just be eaten up elsewhere. We've spent money over the last 18 months but virtually all of it has been totally and utterly wasted.

    Finding Postives in All of This Mess.

    It's like us selling Josh Key and surmising that the next right back won't be asked to play in centre midfield or wherever the hell him and Tymon play. We'll replace Grimes, like for like. Except the replacement will be worse.

    January Transfer Rumours

    I remember a time when there were gentlemen's agreements that players wouldn't play if they were transferred just before the sides played each other

    Captain Grimes on his way to Coventry City?

    Well... if he was going to be replaced with a dynamic and inspiring player then it wouldn't make us weaker. If, however, he's replaced by someone more dull, more uninspiring and worse at football than him, then it will make us weaker.

    Captain Grimes on his way to Coventry City?

    No - I thought he was crap too. But we've essentially replaced him (a young full back/centre back) with Christie/Naughton. Which is a downgrade imo.

    January Transfer Rumours

    FEBRUARY UPDATE FROM ANDY Unfortunately, we lost Matt towards the very end of the window. Losing our captain blindsided us and him wanting to go is something we didn't expect. But we let him go because we only want players here who are proud to wear the Swan on their chest, represent your city...

    Captain Grimes on his way to Coventry City?

    Definitely think there is better out there. But there's no evidence to suggest we'll find it. Which is my point of listing the players I did, I guess. We knew Downes and Piroe would be a massive loss and hard to replace but I expect most of us hoped we'd improve on the likes of Manning...

    Captain Grimes on his way to Coventry City?

    They seem like they're going to be cut from the same cloth going off what little I have read about him and their respective stats.

    Captain Grimes on his way to Coventry City?

    Do you think they'll replace him with a player who performs a different function then? There'll be no shake up because they'll just replace him with a worse version.

    Captain Grimes on his way to Coventry City?

    I don't rate him and I don't think he's any sort of saviour. But we won't replace him with anyone better. Just like we haven't replaced any exiting player with anyone better for a couple of years now. Ntcham, Downes, Rushworth, Piroe, Manning, Latibeaudiere.... the list goes on.
