Burton punt Maamria.
No white smoke from Exeter yet after an eleventh winless match and a home defeat to Port Vale without scoring (again).

Think Burton will be back in non league in a few years. Low crowds, supporter apathy. They’ve been punching above there weight now for a few years and father time eventually catching up with them.

Sheffield United, were never set up for a return to the premier league from day one. They have a goalkeeper who can't rely on the protection from his defense, because they don't perform as a unit. The midfield is championship quality and the forwards are woeful. If Wilder is the answer, why get rid in the first place? This is posted for my blades mad brother who reads Bob's Board but won't talk to me about all things United any more for fear of ridicule 😁. He had his day when we fell into this coal shed of a league.


I agree, like other fringe PL teams he still managed to get them into the PL but paid the price for losing key players to pay off the club’s debt. A bit of a joke that a sacked manager comes back to « save » the club even though I accept the result went the right way today.
Contrary to most CFC posters I want (most) local rivals to do well and SUFC is amongst them.
PS their keeper is as good as any in the PL

To be honest a club like burton could anyone else do any better? I spoke with a burton fan on a train once and he said even in there championship seasons they had no major backer

Based on your prediction history they will be in the Prem within 3 seasons.

Their fans will appreciate your contribution. They’ll doubtless be in the Championship now soon.

Unbelievable that caldwell not been fired at 5pm
ETH got Club Taxi honking the horn outside Old Trafford
Rooney must be feeling the pressure after another loss

ETH just got Manager of the Month

Only way he’ll get hooked is if Radcliffes 25% buy in goes ahead and he fancies someone else.

My blade supporting brother, was saying that the difference today, was that they played for each other, and there was cohesion at the back. I'll reserve judgement for a few games to account for the new manager bounce. I haven't got anything against Sheffield United apart from sibling rivalry 😁, although I detest the scabs with a passion.

His award won't really count for much weighed up against today's result.
Tbh, I'm not sure how he's been awarded it when scraping results, throwing games away and pretty poor performances.

If the reports of players turning on him are true then that’s the main issue….it shouldn’t happen but it’s easier to change the manager than it is to turf out half the squad.

Oh dear. And no doubt he’d be back for one or two of their best players in the January window.

Eddie however could be looking over his shoulder at the moment, . Getting tanked again at spurs today, don't think the owners will care he's got almost an entire team out injured..
all we are saying, is give us ...a goal, or 2+

He is a good manager. I think he will end up at a far bigger club that Burton. Probably end up at a Wycombe/Colchester type club.

Honestly no one could do any better with the injury crisis at Newcastle, if the club are still getting tanked once all the injured players return then fair enough
