what odds on Sheff U's claim being successful? 1000-1 against at least-they'll just be given a small shedload of cash to ease the pain
greedy sods have already got twenty mil.... from that parachute payment. i think the premier league are just gonna tell em t **** off whatever happens so its gonna be six easy points next season haha
RE: greedy sods have already got twenty mil.... I don't think they've got £20m. That's for teams relegated at the end of 07/08 I think.</p> Sheff Utd have been a well run club under Warnock and Mc Cabe. This will be a cross roads for them where eitherthe premiership experience will bounce them back or they'll really struggle. Their appointment of manager suggests the later to me.</p> As for six easy points, I assume that was tounge in cheek. I would be happy with one,two or three points off the teams relegated last season. We have to beat this seasons equivilent of Southend, Luton and Leeds 13 points last year & 6 from Hull. In my opinion we are are on the long road to recovery and if we can establish ourselves as a mid table championship club in the next couple of seasons that, to me, would be a major achievement. Remember we were a Rankin last minute goal from the probabilty of bottom league football only four years since.</p>
