Sheffield United Deepdale 9/8/2024 20.00hrs So here I am once more In the playground of the broken hearts One more experience, one more entry In a diary, self penned Yet another emotional suicide Overdosed on sentiments and pride * THE VIEW FROM THE SEATS Season 55 kicks off on Friday for me, really should know better, expectation is zero, five straight defeats at the end of last season without a goal and first up relegated Premier League club, and it's on the telly box, Arana for those desperate to avoid Plastics v Direby on the main channel. Promise of getting all the players they wanted in early doors has proved as usual to be nonsense, two in, lots of irons in the fire, must be red hot by night. We still need wing backs if he is playing the wing back system, it's been three years and we still haven't got them in. General disenchantment with the club reached peak this week when they cancelled the local shuttle buses to the home games, thye soon backtracked on that we now have some shuttle buses running, They changed the ticket site, we now have Ticketmaster, not saying it's ****e but it's ****e. Even worse Lowe is still manager. Ticket bought for first away game as I valiantly attempt to go to every match this season, here we go. https://www.sufc.co.uk/ MANAGER please log in to view this image Christopher John Wilder (born 23 September 1967) is an English professional football manager who formerly played as a right-back.
