Great picture of the Lane that, recent too, has the Forged in Steel stuff on the Kop, that was only done in December I think.

EDIT: Bit of detective work (reverse image searching) and it's a screengrab from this video, which is also great.

 
Just heard a pig on football heaven who’s decided this is a very clever name to give us. He even looked up the distance between the sty and Barnsley and The Lane and Chesterfield on the coach on his way home from Carlisle to confirm how far apart the the grounds actually are, and guess what, Chesterfield is closer to us than Barnsley is to them!
He is now urging the swine to use his new thought up name as an insult for us. As usual, copy everything from The Blades and soon it will have been their idea which we copied.
At least the presenter told him not to be so childish.

So, if an Owl refers to us as "North Chesterfield" it's "childish", but it's ok for us to refer to Owls as "South Barnsley" and that's not childish?

Just shows how biased RS are then in our favour?

Which is not surprising really, because we are neighbours after all! (I think Pennine Radio is closer to S6 than Radio Sheffield?)

We've got a much better relationship as a club and fanbase, with Radio Sheffield now. Its all very cyclical. But the amusing thing about this is that if United are North Chesterfield, then Radio Sheffield is Radio North Chesterfield because they're on Shoreham street too!

It was funny when we came up with it - that and fucking your sister is legal in S6 as far as I know

This is why I don't get coaches to away games.
 
North Chesterfield United ... I like it.

We've got a famous crooked spire, regular county cricket and Chatsworth... what they got in South Barnsley; the memory of coal mines, and too many branches of Cash Convertors
 
I'd bet my mortgage that he couldn't describe our plan A so how would he know if we have a plan b? This "been found out" stuff is hilarious. Our levels dropped and we had bad luck. It's a 46 game season - let's see how many times we get found out at home between now and May. I'm betting not many
it's alright for you saying you'd bet your mortgage on it, some people haven't got one anymore cos they've paid it off!!
 



As i said, I'm not points scoring & my memory is poor, and I'll happily be corrected/educated.

My take on the game was that we set out with our Plan A, which is 3-5-2 relatively quick, relatively positive shortish passing football. CCV was having a poor game and got subbed. Baldock & Basham changed positions, and we continued with Plan A. We didn't move the ball about as quickly as we should, which allowed Bolton to slip back into two fairly solid banks of defence & midfield, but always having the luxury of the 'out ball' to Madine and pace enough in midfield for at least one player to join him. That kept our CB's honest. Our WB's & FW's were sat on the edge of the 18 yrd box having balls played into their feet by our CM and the balls were being knocked back into the CM's. I thought part of the reason for the slow movement of the ball appeared to be over playing it between duffy & fleck. The fact that we couldn't get beyond their defence in wide areas & cross totally negated billy sharp. This pattern of play continued until the 60min mark when we swapped sharp for donaldson. Still in a 3-5-2 formation, still with the same style of play, still being frustrated. We seemed to bog oursleves down in the kop/south stand corner when duffy/fleck/stevens play a series of short paces to each other. This continued for the next 20 mins or so, until with 10 mins to go we swapped stearman for carruthers and went 4-3-3. You could argue that was Plan B. Perhaps my point isn't about the existence of a Plan B, but CW's belief in it and his willingness to initiate it.
you what ?
 
Bramall Lane to Sheffield Cathedral - 1.2m (a leisurely stroll)

Hillsborough to Sheffield Cathedral - 3.0m (half a 10km run)
 
Which bit?

As I said, people have mentioned on here & twitter that we have a number of plans and are flexible in the style of our play. People saying that we only have Plan A have been shot down. It was a honest question. Sometimes I go to the match and don't see the same thing as others or understand aspects of the game, and I was just querying it.

Edit. Baldock not Stevens.

My opinion was that we failed to execute our plan A and appeared to be pre-occupied with Bolton's plan A. I believe if we had executed our plan A, we'd have beaten them.

If we execute our plan A and come out playing on the front foot, I think it will be very difficult for the pork and any other team that comes to Bramall Lane. This getting 'found out' is bollocks. All the teams in this league know how we play, the problem is dealing with it.

The point about the name is us taking the piss out of them not really being in Sheffield (historically / city region) and exagerating it. The fact that the pig thinks it is just the same as taking the next town along and adding north/south/east/west is about as wide of the mark as you can get. Funny really, that they are too thick to understand our joke.
