DaBouncer Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Lets not count chickens... we can still **** up at this point. I soooooo want the Blades to go up, but I don't want to jinx it. Up the Blades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottf Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 If (and this is still a BIG IF!!!) we go up i am under no illusions that we are going to be in a dogfight to stay in the premiership for another year BUT a couple of shrewd transfers by warnock and a nice injection of cash could just see us stay up for a season or two and from there u never know- look at charlton- never a big club but doing well!!!!

Lester_Bigot Posted February 1, 2006 Author Share Posted February 1, 2006 I know it sounds awfull, but I love to see teams getting hammered Arsenal v Middlesborough and can see a few 7-0 scorelines if United Get promoted When Wednesday go down, I can also see a few hammerings as well ..... Wednesday 0 - 6 Swansea.... i can see it now on Grandstand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rushup Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 If the Blades go up (which I hope they will), looking at the squad we have now I don't think we would remain in the Premiership for longer than a season. Maybe we'll do a Bradford/West Brom and stay up on the last day, but unless there are some good signings in the summer, I really can't see it. Akinbiyi has proved he can't score in the top flight, and this season aside, his career scoring record is far from impressive. In fact, it's awful. Our only real premiership experience is an old guy who I fear will be shown up against premiership opposition. Most of our players, while great in the championship, are unproven against premiership opposition on a regular basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of our players, while great in the championship, are unproven against premiership opposition on a regular basis. i really cant agree with this at all. akinbiyi.... these are the teams he has played for and scored goals ok? Norwich 25 (33) 5 goals, poor Hereford 3 (1) 2 goals, not bad Brighton 7, 4 goals, not bad Gills 67 (1) 29, impressive Bristol C 52, 25, good again Wolves 39 (1) 16, cant complain Leicester 57 (10) 13 goals, not the best Palarse 11 (17), 3 goals, poor Stoke 58 (7) 19, better Burnley 42 (1) 18, good return, average 0.31 goals per game ratio...... i dont see it as that bad to be honest, im not a fan dont get me wrong. but i think you are being very naive. anyways as for the rest of the team, the following kenny, bromby, unsworth, quinn, jags, webber, shipperley, possibly monty and kabs, flitcroft, gillespie, armstrong (given a run in team) can all easily adapt to prem, im happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youwhatref Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 i always think Utd do well against Premiership teams in the cup but when you are playing them week in and out it is a bit different. I think you'll struggle but you do have a chance. Personally i think the embarrassment will come from Foot & Mouth Warnock, his behaviour will be glorified in the Premiership and his rants and refs will be cringing to watch.

matt1889 Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Like I said......Lets see how we spend our £25-£30million pounds promotion money, before we make any judgement on how we will do in the top flight! Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
