didnt manage to get tonight. listened to the radio (wireless for the oldies SF & SEB 
) glad to hear that Sharp has got off the mark in the league, well done that man.
Having said that, how many times has it been said that all sharp needs is some service into the 6 yard area??????
well done Kenny for keeping us in it, UP THE BLADES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hard to see through the bodies, but as the ball went out to Geary someone knocked Sharp down I think.
Both penalty decisions for me was awful.
Referee was bad in both directions.
Think we may have just edged, but by no means a classic performance. Tonge was missing most of the game, we took of Beattie and Carney for some reason.
Sharp scored an easy goal and missed a sitter, Hulse bizarrely kicked it out instead of trying to lob keeper/take it round him.

Apparently Beattie went straight down the tunnel, Sharp played well but i still don't really rate him much, Kenny, anotheroutstandin performance, nothing seems to get past him since saturday. Still, i'm still undecided whether we deserved the 3 points, but either way we got them, and that's all i'm bothered about.
Just seen repeat of Sharps goal and the pen
What their defender was doing for Sharps goal I will never know, whether Sharp has given him a sly push in the back I don't know, but if not, it was awful defending.
The "penalty" decision against Morgan is absolutely disgusting.

Beattie was going to sit on the bench and got ushered down the tunnel, think cos of the cold they were making sure he didn't cease up.
Beattie also would have been offside if he'd have gone for the Sharp chance in the first half (even though he made himself look silly by celebrating before the defender cleared it).
and Billy's 'Offside' goal look very much not offside from where i was in the stand.

From Sky........
"All credit to Billy," Blackwell said. "He's a Blade through and through and so I can only imagine the pressure he was under.
"He's worked his socks off and even when things haven't been going right for him he's shown great bravery by continually getting in the box.
"Hopefully that will be the first of many for him. I can't tell you how delighted I am for him."
Blackwell added: "We've not won at home for a while now and we had to break that hoodoo. But that was more like it and it should do wonders for everyone's confidence."
Coventry manager Chris Coleman knows they are in a relegation battle after slipping to 20th in the wake of their eighth successive league defeat on the road, but was less than impressed with referee Trevor Kettle.
Frustrated
"I'm surprised, frustrated and disappointed," Coleman said.
"The penalty against us wasn't, the one we got wasn't and when you've got someone in charge like that it becomes a circus.
"I thought that if we'd have got the first goal then we'd have gone on to get two or three because we were playing the better stuff.
"The first goal changed things dramatically.
"Paddy Kenny made some great saves for them. We kept asking him questions and to be fair to him he kept answering them."

Hopefully Sharp will get a couple more before the end of the season and get in my good books, but for now I'm still not convinced, one goal doesn't make a striker! He needs to learn to calm down, after both goals he was grabbed round the head by Morgs, he was still having a go at the ref despite being booked. He also needs to watch his line when waiting for the ball, and watch the ball(not the man) when its played.
Crap penalty from Speed but took the rebound quite well.
Kenny made some great saves again.
Misfud is a midget!
And what a celebration from Shapy

I have to agree!!
I'm not sure on his "goal" was offside or not.
HOWEVER, if he was offside then it is very poor signs of a striker being behind the back line when the ball is struck whilst running with the defence.

You have to agree with pretty much everything he says, they didn't play better throughout, but for the majority of the game they were the better team, it seemed to knock them down a notch when Sharp nodded home his first goal, and then the 'penalty' pretty much killed them off, we could have gone on to get more if they had not got their penalty decision. Atleast Coleman could admit that both decisions were awful and he basically called him a clown...which is funny.

Dead chuffed for Sharp getting his goal, but he was bloody rubbish again last night.
Referee was as I expected, Kettle has always been crap.
Decent performance from us, scrapped through for a win though which is all that matters at this stage of the season. I'll settle for this position now and next season we can hopefully make a push.

Nah, plain red. They can't get away with messages these days
Safe to say I think he was fairly chuffed though!
