20/12/09 - Crystal Palace Match Thread

[Linz]

A late kick off on the TV and the visit of Neil Warnock.

 

[S64 Blade]

Not expecting much from this one. Palace are in form at the moment, and as we have all gathered - we aren't. Especially at home.

 

[MAQ]

not looking forward to this one, for the reasons mentioned above,

and i fear that should the reslut not go our way it could once again be the straw that broke the camels back with certain sections of the supporters!!!

 

[S64 Blade]

Yeah i agree. I can see it being a bad atmosphere at the Lane on Saturday.

Well I know that I, for one, will be heading back to the Golden Lion after the game to stage my very own protest against everyone.

It involves drink... and plenty of it.

Woo... like Santa

The person I really feel sorry for if we don't get a result is Come From Away. Are you really really sure you want to travel from Canada for what we're being served up at the moment?

The Blades will put on the best performance of the season so far against Palace and win the match with a couple of goals.

Hacking someone else's account to post as them is against Forum rules.
Let BB have his logon back please

 

[Tinoblade]

We're going to get a stuffing

 

[Kev Gee]

Im expecting a VERY dull 0-0 game. With both teams trying to see who can kick it the furthest up the other end of the pitch

Don't forget to wear your stupid hat. As long as you've got your daft hat on everything will be fine.
Or something.

Wouldn't miss it for the world, it would be a real change to have something to complain about. Hoping Blackwell goes back to his 4-3-3 with Webber BT and Cotterill up front and Quinn, Howard and Halford in the middle. Time to attack Warnock and pressure them all the way.

Be good to see you again my friend........not so sure about the match though!

The journey starts with a 5.00 am flight out of Winnipeg this Thursday and fly overnight from Toronto, crawl up to Sheffield on Friday and meet you at the Pub on Saturday - barring snowstorms and other fun stuff. It's -25C today with a windchill takes makes it about -40C, so we are looking forward to a little warming rain and a beer or two. Football is a bonus.

I shall look through my daft hat collection prior to this match

Not unless I can magic another freebie out of thin air, no.

 

[palace-eagles]

I think this game will be more two-sided than you guys are making out. We have been playing well, but not anything fantastic. I think we're top of the form tables at the moment...but we are by no means unbeatable.

Donny came down last week, and if it wasnt for their sending off - probably would have nicked it. They definitely deserved a draw! But thats what happens when you're on form, lucks on your side and you still manage to some how pick up points, whether you deserve them or not.

It's the return of Warnock, at Brammal lane...Of course your players are going to be up for this!!!

 

[shorehamview]

It's not really though, for two reasons. One, Neil Warnock has already been back to the Lane, last season. And two, it's BRAMALL Lane. Not Brammal.

Half the squad we've got just now wouldn't be up for it in an whores boudoir !

 

[Bladesman]

Not good enough.

Should of seen the game out but sloppy defending cost us the game.

 

[BuryStEdmundsBlade]

A draw was a fair result but should have won it being 2-1 up with only 5 or 6 minutes to go. Not impressed with most of the players and I hate saying this but we are so far off the top 2/3. Gutted, feels like a defeat tonight but glad I got to see the game on the tv.

 

[Mousey]

Aren't the BBC just fantastic at details...

Sheffield United manager Neil Warnock:
"It was no more than we deserved, we hit the bar and came close on a few occasions so I'm delighted not to have lost.

"I don't think it was a penalty so I think a point was a fair result.

"I'm proud of all the boys and I'm pleased the game was not settled on that late penalty decision.

"It was a great goal late on and it shows our spirit to keep going."
