On current form some of those last 7 games are definitely winnable. I'm not sure Mike Eccles will let them switch off.....

I see no reason why we can't turn Sheffield over again.

Also Barrow last game of season will have one eye on playoffs, would not be surprised if they rest a few

Hughes is clearly a moron.

Slight correction, a wealthy moron.

Perhaps its easy to make money burning up the planet.

Wish my school Careers teacher had said go into oil & gas broking. I was always competent at being incompetent just without the money. Oh well..........

To get to the top you would, however, need to be a good con man and able to live with the consequences of denying and sowing doubt on the scientfic consensus.

Well if you put it like that!

Not true.
I doubt Hughes ever sold oil or gas to anyone who didn't want it.....he was a facilitator not a sales person. A dealer, not a pusher so to speak, which explains his inability to sell RL to a new audience.....he's always sold to a willing purchaser.


He has spent his money and got no return.....yet rather than change tactics, ask advice or employ competent staff, continued until his funds now diminish to the extent that he can't bankroll the club, but still he continues with the failed processes of the last 20+ years that has seen us nearly fold on 2 occasions, be relegated and shed 4000 fans.
He is an arrogant narcissistic megalomaniacal fool.....

Off topic really but I was making a more general point about the oil and gas industry. By definition a trader buys and sells, you are right though, there's not a lot of unsold oil and gas.

I’m going to go against the flow here and say that being successful in any highly competitive and highly lucrative business no matter what it is will always require a certain degree of skill and hard work. Now whether that skill set can translate itself into the running or hiring people to run a successful sports club is very much open to debate. Some have succeeded, some not. This season has not been text book....unless the text book was entitled ‘how to make basic errors and very nearly xxxk it up totally’
