Ready for The Stir?

The (I think) ex sports editor of the Star who wrote the column last season about how Blades should want the Pigs to win the play offs is at it again.

I'm not going to link to his article because I don't want to generate traffic for him but here's a summary:

Headline:

"Was city of Sheffield the real derby winner - or did aggressive fans tarnish the day?"

No Martin. The real winner was Sheffield United playing brilliant football by 4 fucking goals to 2. There may have been the odd scuffle but nothing that you don't get at any derby game in the country.

"It wasn’t quite revenge for the Boxing Day Massacre but Unitedites are already calling Sunday’s 4-2 win at Hillsborough the ‘slaughter in September.’"

Why even bring a game in 1979 into it? And I would argue a 4 2 away win is pretty impressive given the money they've spent. And why mention the 'slaughter' quote (which I havent heard anywhere) given the context of the article? Hmmm.

"Walking past the Graduate pub just off Tudor Square at around 3pm on Sunday you’d have thought they’d won the Champions League."

Well sorry for celebrating such a great derby win. And who the fuck are "they"? And why focus on our fans in an atricle about trouble breaking out eh? No mention of Pig fans being dicks on Hillsborough corner at all.

I try and defend the Star at times, indeed the report by James Shield was great and Chris Holt got his blog about spot on - but then this happens - sorry but it is The Stir at it's worst.

All the joke threads we did about how the Star would report our win and this twat publishes this piece of shit. I'd say unbelievable but it isn't really from the pen of this wanna be :fattwat::fattwat::fattwat: cockwomble.

Mr Smith seems to have missed the vile abuse aimed at our players mentioned in this thread. Particularly the bile aimed at Evans : https://www.s24su.com/forum/index.php?threads/abuse-of-evans-once-again-ignored-by-media.58349/

That’s about right for The Star.

Danny incoming in 3 2 1....
 
Don’t take it to heart.

Some journalists are asked to be a little controversial, report from a different angle to create discussion.

He’ll be showing his bosses this thread and getting congratulated for doing a good job.
Martin Smith probably isn’t bothered about either team.
 



Didn't see the match live because I was at work, but was following on social media. It was a tidy finish, but I was expecting some 30 yard screamer for the way I saw pigs fans going off about it.

Fleck's goal was my favourite. 3 minutes, 24 yards, speed of shot 63 mph. Not bad for a pub team...

They do keep telling us how great they are and how they are such a massive club. In which case, if that is true, then the celebrations are warranted?

Agree with that grafikhaus.....top goal from Duffy as it finished the game off, but Fleck's free kick set us up brilliantly. It had quality written all over it, just wish he'd shoot more often as he's clearly in possession of a fierce shot. A fabulous way to start the game, added to which Fleck had signed a new 4-year contract with the Blades, life's pretty sweet for a Blade these days! UTMB!!!
 
I particularly like the fact he has posted a tweet in the article from someone named "Sea Salt Jerry" to somehow backup his facts. What compounds this utter nonsense is that old Jezza himself only said that he had "heard a lot of violence happened" so it must be true.

Although it could be one of the 5658 adverts on the page
