If Weller does go to the Steelers then either someone in Sheffield has won the lottery or they have gambling massively financially on money = success = bigger crowds.
If this continues then Finnerty has to win a grand slam or he will make Corey Neilson look like a coaching genius.
And so continues the Steelers cycle.
They haven't built the team - they seem to continuously mortgaged their future, and now the fan base expect it. What they need is someone to put up the white flag, go "sod it - we're going have a rebuilding season" and do it from the ground up.
With the losses Smith went into last season with, and the seeming spend this year, I would guess all of this season's Season Ticket money went into covering last season, and this season is spending big in the hopes that it'll cover it. I think this may be the beginning of the end of the Smith era.
