Only 1 united fan at work, though he has been quiet so far.
Cant add much more than to what has already been said. CC & the players have a lot to answer for and the hurt and pain us fans have to put up with wont go away anytime soon.
Nothing great will ever be achieved without great men, and men are great only if they are determined to be so. For glory gives herself only to those who have always dreamed of her.

Nope this is here for along time its historic and quite frankly they deserve to shuve our noses in the shit becuase many fans have been blind since that Hull final and i hope they enoyed there day out (wankers) day outs are for winners not losers . The moment Wilder took over at the lane i started to panic and think i hope we get out of this league before they come up ! and then ther were the idiots who wanted them the first game ffs at least we got a months worth of fixtures before the season being buried.

It's all unforgivable. Steady steps backwards since the playoff final against Hull. 18 months and what has he really changed? I don't care if there's 37 games left he will approach them all 'the same' and grind out draws with a few wins then choke in a big game. I'm of the same sentiment as Imre. Yesterday was pretty much the end of my season.
150th Anniversary season. Lacklustre transfer activity, can't produce kits for the fans and a historic loss at home to our bitter rivals.
Carlos is done, in my books. Anything less than an emphatic win against L**ds and he needs to be immediately terminated. No malice in it, just clearly what is best for the Club.
Have I missed anything? I can't believe there hasn't been a written statement from Big Tuna himself apologising. The ineptitude at S6 is exhausting.

DC is in Thailand attending a funeral so wont expect a statement from him until back in England. Be surprised if he did issue a statement TBH.

Probably not, I'm sure he's not too happy either. He knows what this means to the fans, even if Carlos does not.
Carlos says he "takes responsibility" but it's more than just saying the right words really.

This result has even got me firmly on the fence with regards to CC. I get that in the grand scheme it is only one game, it is only 3 points but to truly fail to understand what goes on in the streets of Sheffield at derby time is unforgivable!! Ever since DC arrived there has been a unity about the club, a sense of all being in this together and finally a promising future but that has definitely been waning this season. DC will not be happy with this result and I do think he understands the importance of this but I don't think he needs to make any sort of statement at this stage. DC seems not to be a chairman that interferes with the football side, at least not in public, so a statement from him won't help in my view. His biggest statement will be to back Carlos providing we put this behind us and keep winning, or getting someone new in if things don't improve. I just hope we don't do a Birmingham City after they got rid of Rowett and make the wrong decision.

I don't get all the criticism of Westwood. Not much he could do with the goals as far as I can see, especially with the schoolboy antics going on in front of him. Anyone else missing Loovens yet? The back four are just a bunch of individuals without him. Lees had probably the worst game I've seen him have since he arrived in S6 and the full backs made Brooks look like some kind of Messi. I think Van Aken got a rude introduction to what English football is really like and made Clarke look like a genius.
I don't think we downplayed the fixture, I think we went too far the other way and got carried away. Completely lost our shape for large parts of the first half, chasing the ball like kids in the playground. I really couldn't believe what I was seeing at times.
Hopefully it was just a one off and like last season we'll bounce right back. I remember a lot of doom and gloom after every poor result and dire predictions for the next game but mostly we turned it round next game. I know no one wants to lose to "them" but I'd rather do that and finish above them than the other way round.
You know nothing, Jacko
