Someone has at last asked the question: why was Alan Knill pushed out of Sheffield United? Chief executive Stephen Bettis’s answer—that it was a “collective decision” to bring in younger coaches—has only deepened the mystery. Was this really about fresh ideas, or age by another name?

Knill’s exit ended a remarkable partnership with Chris Wilder, stretching back to 2008 and encompassing five clubs. Wilder once called him an indispensable ally and loyal friend. So why sanction the removal of a man with such experience, influence and trust?

If age was genuinely the deciding factor, what does that say about Wilder, now 59? And if Wilder backed the decision, why praise Knill so warmly just weeks earlier?
