    Anyone else think they will fall back down the leagues now?

    Don't know, or care.

    They're irrelevant - not one of the clubs I think about as a rival, and games with them excite me as much as the visits of teams like Bristol City, Portsmouth and Crystal Palace.

    I think they will become a League One perennial like Oldham with the odd flirtation with the top

    I can see them being relegated again, especially with a £5 million debt and the loss of the money men. They are way off breaking even so it's more cuts next year too, and then there's the dilemma over the stadium. Funny how recently Mr Ryan hasn't been mouthing off so much like that bellend he was during the league 1 days, and how recently he always commented about "us and Donny" like we were old mates once he realised he had gone as far as possible.....

    Good riddance John, welcome back our true South Yorkshire derbies.

    Agreed...

    Especially if they don't bin their stupid superstar loanees on £200 per week idea.

    If they got back to how they used to play they'd be up there. But Saunders made them considerably worse in my opinion. I don't think they'll slip down the leagues, but I don't think they'll be champions.
