    You should be pleased then, one less team for you to worry about.

    Not my first choice, but he's here now so he starts with a clean slate. What he has done elsewhere doesen't matter anymore, it's what he does at Sheffield United that counts now.

    he has relegated :Middlesborough were he wasted a kings ransom , Bradford, and WBA from the premiership, like I said he is the worse premiership manager of his time .....good luck!

    He never managed Bradford in the premiership, so you are wrong.

    To be honest, you're not really looking at the bigger picture, nobody would have saved Bradford that season, he was relegated with Middlesboro because of a points deduction, it's alright just looking at his negatives and using statistics and win ratios to back your argument up but you really have to look at the circumstances of each of his tenures.

    He won two promotions with Boro, both automatic, and got to 3 cup finals, he spent a lot of money i know, but he was 3 wins away from winning them 3 trophies, would look quite different then.

    I'm not saying he's a brilliant manager or anything, he certainly wasen't my first choice, but he isn't anywhere near as bad as you're making him out to be.

    like I said before , i respect Robson even though he played for ManUtd purely because he was a fantastic footballer ....
    maybe things will be different this time , Bryan kidd has alot of experience and will be a good assistant ......My advice to Sheff Utd would be to get out early if things are not going to plan though because we all know what the final outcome will be when his teams start sliding down the table.

    he got diddly to spend at west brom and less at bradford

    got 3 promotions too

    unlike liverpools recent managers winning a title


    houllier got 106 million in 2 years , thats a lot of money


    when your at a team like boro you have to spend 20 -30 million to start to catch up on the squads of the top 6 . get it some sort of perspective
