Sheaf Saint

Initial bid. Doesn't mean we won't go back with an improved offer.

You just know we will though.

Nathan Redmond has left Sheff Weds after joining them as a free agent in the autumn and having played a grand total of 137 minutes.

Yeah he won't be missed. The very best you can say about his time with us is that he was a useful squad player in our 23/24 promotion season. That's it. Never done anything of note, and certainly did nothing to warrant having his own song (that our fans bizarrely seemed to love singing even when he wasn't playing), when much better players than him never got one. Very glad to see his wages off the books finally.

I take your general point. But Welington has been fit and available ever since we sacked Still. Given how much of an upgrade he has been in the last few games, persisting with Manning in that position for so long was ridiculous.

Weeks? Imagine if they'd clocked it all in 2022!

Well, according to ping-pong, we badly missed Baz today.

It's really not rocket science is it. THB and Stephens both work much better together in a CB pair. And Welington is light years ahead of Manning. We could have played those three and, prior to selling, put Edwards in at RB while Jelert and Roerslev were injured. The claim that we absolutely had to play the shitty back 5 formation with the players available just doesn't wash.

Yep. A superb stop.

Great result, and a much more convincing performance. Seven points from nine is very welcome. Of course you all have me to thank, because I chucked £20 on us to be relegated after the Hull game.

Two absolutely top drawer saves today. He reacts quickly to come out to gather through balls as well - a notable one in the first half when Stephens had been beaten. The most telling thing for me is that he looks confident, rather than being terrified of the ball when it comes into the box. A proper goalkeeper at last.

Absolute comedy goal, we'd be howling about it if we had conceded that. But I'll take it all day long.

At least he's coming for them. Baz would have been rooted to his line for a couple of them.

As good as he's been overall so far, that was a very slack and dangerous header from Stephens.

OK you're clearly just trolling now.

Oh ref. That's a fucking penalty all day long.

Earlier slip aside, how refreshing it is to have an actual keeper on the pitch.

Total chaos in our 6 yard box from a corner, again. If we left a couple of players on the edge of the box it would force the oppo to keep 2-3 players back to prevent the counter. But we just pack the box which only invites pressure. GREAT SAVE Peretz!

He's much better in a back four. Always has been.

More reminiscent of Boruc IMO.

Lovely stuff. Great goal.

It's the result of him playing with Armstrong all season, knowing if he squares it Arma will miss. Might take him some time to reverse that habit.

Well he already plays as a false 10, given his propensity to go missing in games.

Bye bye Adam. Thanks for Wembley and good luck to you.

Probably the best team we can put out right now. Seems that we just couldn't play a back four without Bree, which makes the decision to loan him out even more baffling.
