Cost of sacking Liam Rosenior: £24m
Cost of buying Sheffield Wednesday: £20m
When sacking a manager costs more than a club in the Championship, it's probably time to start addressing those financial oblivion questions in football.
#FairDealForWednesday
EFL you're complicit in Wednesday situation
Chansiri passed your fit and proper test 10years ago yet you sat on your hands for 8 years while he failed to comply with rules
Punish him not the fans and new owners
And some kids just want to turn up to an organised game and play football
It's NOT all about development
A cup game away , 2 early goals conceded and 0-4 at half time. Albeit at a good div 1 team. Still trailing in the 2nd half your out of the cup.
Do you take of your 2 strikers and go 1 up top?. The paid coach did onto of not naming all available players for the game.. mystified
Tier 7 coaches, their clubs social media, and the crap they talk.
Moaning about throwing a lead away plus a none offside goal which earned a draw but no mention their 3rd was offside.
Pitch conditions same for both sides but yet again his team failed to see out a win.
Couple of Photos from Socrates deserved away win at Top placed SJR Worksop.
Great to see the Daughters team win.
Unacceptable
#Shoutout to Brooke who broke her tibia and fibula in a 50/50 on Sunday. Unfortunately Brooke had to lay on the wet football pitch for 5 hours in agony waiting for help. The temperature dropped considerably and the daylight disappeared, she was lying in the dark in very low temperatures awaiting help as all instructions from SAS call takers advised us not to move her - we had no option to help in any way aside from waiting on the ambulance
Fortunately Cumbernauld Utd called in a club doctor from another football club who arrived instantly and checked Brooke over confirming Brooke’s injury was serious. The doctor managed to speak to the ambulance service and within 10 mins, at 8pm, the ambulance arrived. It then took a further hour of the paramedics medicating Brooke and making her comfortable enough to be moved from the grass to the stretcher.
Experienced div 1 players named as subs as the home team scrape to a narrow victory.
Makes you wonder what goes through some coaches heads , or Secretary.
As a coach/manager when your tactics/Formation has seen you go from leading to being behind, do you carry on with more of the same or change and attempt to retrieve something from the game.
A change might just show you a new alternative way,but to have no plan B isn't acceptable
Disappointed in how the game panned out today we watched. Overly negative tactics by the home side who's coach felt the journey through playing football was more important than a result.
It's open age so this is pretty much the terminus.
Defeat accepted too easily

A LIFE lesson from my friend,ex-Manager and Legend Alan Ball
#ThrowbackThursday
First game for Gee and some of her x Middlewood team mates, against some of her x team mates.
Decent game, score flattered Handsworth to some degree as it was very even throughout. 2-0 to Handsworth at the end .
First 4 Socrates fixtures 25/26
Going to be strange and enjoyable watching the daughter in somebody else's team.

Chris Powell lifting the lid on his time at Sheffield Wednesday.
"It's the most functional dysfunctional Football Club I've ever been at. But there's no board of directors. So the club is run by the owner, Chansiri."

Player move clubs, follow their mates, forget to hand in kit from clubs they've left and clubs post their retained list.
( That'll be the players that stayed they mean)
Grass roots preseason ⚽️⚽️
