    Yeah mate, couple of days ago that.

    I drive past Sheff Utd a few times a week. Can see Hillsborough from my office. Hillsborough should be the better, but sadly it isnt.

    I've a good mate who is a lifelong Owl. He's been saying since they got back up, that he'd take a relegation if it got rid of Chansiri.

    He now wants £100m for a club with no players, a crumbling ground, rented training facilities and mutiny in the support. Grade AAA nutter.

    If Wed get a new owner it can change quickly. Seems likely be League 1 for them first though.

    Theoretically it could I suppose. But the workload is mighty there. My mate told me the the business with the North Stand roof has not emerged out of the blue. The possibility was flagged up earlier, quotes were given, and put in the drawer as it was in the millions to fix.

    It's awful. More players will leave, just chaos at every turn.

    Chansiri has ran out of money. It looks like he has borrowed to keep the club afloat in the last year or two, and is now up to his neck. I don't actually think he is a " bad" guy. He had an expensive go early in his time, then more spending. But all a bit of a wild gamble. He did have cash He's just nuts

    Might be time for the EFL to move and put a time on it, or remove their share.

    There, but for the Grace of God!

    Completely agree.....there's only one team in Sheffield! Let's hope someone comes to their rescue.

    it will be a safety thing,

    they will want the away fans to either be in the SoL/SJP early and to stay until the home fans have gone to keep trouble down

    That’s obvious but it’s been fine in the past whilst been allowed to make our own way through. Hopefully sense prevails

    Not just them mate. Loads of us hate it too.

    I hate the fact I have to be treated like a criminal and be told that I'm not allowed to make my own way to a football match due to a minority of idiots.

    Absolutely takes a lot of the edge away from the games too. Makes it more sanitised.

    On a smaller case the same things happened to Morecambe, terrible owner, the Conference Management have given them 3 weeks to show they have the cash to see out the season, they've postponed their first 3 fixtures and if the cash is a no show they'll be expunged from the league.

    How many other clubs are on the brink of collapse.....The EFL bosses need to hang their heads in shame for allowing these shameless people into these clubs in the first place.
