Can I respectfully ask that you amend the header, Boss?
Slightly off topic, be careful parking on Bessemer road, my car was broken into Saturday. Made a miserable day even worse.
Nothing taken just the damage to the window. Had to clear the glass away before me and my son could get in. A few minutes after driving off my son starts crying, some sick twat has only left two Sheffield united tickets on the back seat.

A few extracts from Riza's press conference:
“Unfortunately, you have to go through these moments to become better and a better version of yourself. It’s a tough position, but I’m not shirking responsibility and I’m up for the challenge. That’s been since day one and it isn’t going to change right until the end."
-
“I think rather than forecast what’s going to happen, talking about whether they’ve lost their last three and now they should win their fourth because their manager is going to be on them, or whether we’ve not been able to win our last game and forecast that we are to lose against Sheffield United because they’re higher up in the table than us, I think the mindset is 'let’s see what happens'.
"Rather than go down the route of this could happen and that could happen, we have to be focused on believing we can win the game."
-
“Fitness-wise, we’ve lost Isaak Davies in training yesterday with a slight hamstring problem.
"Perry Ng has been out this week, I’m not sure yet when he’ll come back because he hadn’t trained all week, but did some light stuff today. Andy Rinomhota has trained today.
"Other than the long-term injuries, everyone else is available."
Put the ones who were on the bench for the stoke game is what i say, and if they don't turn up, put them on the bench for the next game and start the ones who were on the bench for the Sheffield United game. It's bound to come off at some point.

A very different edit by WOL from the club of the press conference. A few extracts:
"I don't want the fans to feel that we don't care and that we aren't bothered or that we are not fighting. It may look like that is the case, but it certainly isn't.
"In respect of the team, the players. We are all trying to work together to get the best team out on the pitch, whether they are fit or performing and getting the balance right to get the result we are looking for. We hadn't lost in four games but only the three points against Blackburn. We are disappointed and we feel pain and want to make it right."
-
"If there's going to be blame then it's got to be on me. I'm the manager of the team and I take full responsibility," he said.
"I know how important it is. It's a failure on my part if we go down. I have standards, goals, ideas about where I feel I can take this club.
"I have always been taught that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. It's only going to make me better, stronger. I read all the comments from fans and unfortunately a lot of them are clueless. That's what I've got to learn. To come away from that side of it, so I can stay focused.
My advise to Riza would be to stop ploughing through fans comments and get on the training field to work out some way of getting his team to get the ball up the field and finding a player in a good enough position to find the net. Alternatively train his many defensive bodies to pick up a member of the opposition instead of somehow leaving them all free in our penalty area.
Riza-The gifted one.
Could be another 7-0
Sheffield to get 3 sent off, and we win 1-0!
