Well, Brian Kidd certainly fucked us up. After his appointment  and O'Leary 
deciding that he was too big to appear at training sessions, letting Kidd do 
it all, our style of football changed from being an attacking, attractive 
and generally successful style to being much more defensive, generally dour 
and certainly not as successful.
There were many reasons for our decline and fall but one of the first 
precipitating factors was O'Leary distancing himself from the team and Kidd 
taking his place.
Aligning him with Robson is one of the more classic directorial errors, fit 
to rank with allowing O'Leary to buy Fowler, Keane, Johnson et.al. when 
other positions needed strengthening and then appointing Terry Venables.
I almost feel sorry for Blades fans............... sorry, I just had to 
break off there to have a little giggle.
Should we get promotion next season I wouldn't be too surprised to see 
Sheffield pass us in the oposite direction with them two running things.
