How nervous are the pigs about playing the mighty Blades on the 24th?

[Sheffsteel]

I remember talk like this before boxing day 1979

Everyone should shut up about it and embrace the underdog role, because if they turn up and click on the day they could fucking hammer us

Let them do all the talking

How much do you want to bet JJ?

If we click up front we will hammer Wednesday, our midfield is better than theirs but they have a better forward line.
In fact we have one of the best midfields in this league.

Wednesday fans think if they perform then they'll beat us because we're just an organised hard working side.
But there's a pattern starting to happen.
Barnsley were terrible, Derby were very average and underwhelming, Keith Edwards says based on that 1st half
Sunderland are a sorry outfit and look poor

But when Sunderland played at Hillsboro recently they bossed the game in the 1st half.
We make Derby look poor but they follow it with a 5-0 thrashing of Hull.

This is what happened in league 1. We almost always made the opposition look poor.

We might not beat Wednesday but I can guarantee that we'll have a spell where we out football them.

 

[Rodders]

Has this changed into a fucking Wednesday Forum or something?

 

[CarlMcBlade]

Everybody in the league are "bricking it" when they have to match the Blades work rate especially at BDTBL.

It's their forwards that worry me especially Hooper
But knowing our luck and the way our fans are taking the piss they'll probably get awarded three penalties and Jordan Rhodes will step up and convincingly score all three.

I say nothing before local derbies, you just look stupid if it doesn't go to plan

From pork talk.

Pigs 2-0 up
Sunderland are pap

Is that the same Sunderland Wednesday couldn't beat ? Can you also confirm Leeds are hammering the same Burton Wednesday couldn't beat ?

Think the nerves are setting in.
Then again

Why couldn't we finish off Burton and Sunderland.
Because our new players have to wait until they know how we play, united were lucky playing Donaldson and playing to his strengths, mark my words give it to the end of next Season and Rhodes will come good.
So Rhodes should be OK.......................in about 18 months. Wtf?

I love the feel good factor that winning brings.....but.....wouldn't it be good just to see this as a game-at-a-time thing, as all I'm reading is leading up to the game against Wednesday, and how this is a foregone result. Might be well advised to calm down just a little until after we've played 'em. Then, if we've beaten them, that will be the time to celebrate. Like most of us, I'm delighted with the way we're adjusting to returning to the Championship, but imagine if this was reversed and it was the owls who were gloating before playing us?

The derby will soon be upon us, so let's not squawk too much, please? I hope we beat 'em, but all that matters is what happens on the day, UTMB!

Be bold, fuck it. So what if they win, shutting up is not prudent and will not change the result. Lets lay it on thick, fuck em.

 

[DronnieBlade]

My one and only hope is that the luck on the day is on our side. Seen far too much of Wendy where they have had the rub of the green. It's about time this changed !

If so, we will get a result.

UTB

 

[Stretch]

They were decent enough today and did the job against a shocking defence. No doubt that won't get mentioned unlike the 3 'gifts' that Derby gave us, when In reality 2 were supremely taken goals that many strikers in this league would have fluffed.
Overall however they just look like mid table cloggers at the moment but I hope today has re-invigorated their sense of arrogance and perceived superiority, if just a little. All the sweeter when the 24th comes around and it suddenly dawns on them how 5 years ahead of us counts for jack shit.

Agree, you can NEVER legislate regards a result.
Luck can play a part so anything can happen, so I'm not shouting my mouth of about beating Wednesday
And I agree we could lose.

However for me the issue is that Wednesday fans think we're a Bassett type or Warnock type set of battlers from league 1.
Their fans are convinced that as long as they try and work hard then they'll surely win.

What they don't quite understand is that our midfield is top...top quality and we play some fantastic passing football.
I'm 99% confident we will have spells at Hillsboro when we give them a footballing lesson.
How will their fans cope with that? You can bet many will say that it's the worse they've played for months with a few saying
they never realised how good we were.

It's to our advantage that this league still don't realise we are one of the best sides to come out of league 1 this century.

I know I'd be nervous if I was a BIG FAT FILTHY PIG. It's set up perfectly for us to win yet all the pressure will be on them.

Sounds like good management to me.

It does to me as well mate, not sure if it was clear, but that quote was from Pork Talk.

Don't worry, I'd never assume such nonsense to come from a Blade
