Twenty seven bastard pounds for a dinner time kick off on TV?!

Got my ticket for this one so i'll be there! :thumbup:

 

[DazBlade88]

Already got my ticket.

It's the least I expect for prices these days to be honest

 

[matth]

Just got mine this morning. I don't really have much of a choice whether I go or not...

 

[Sensiblade]

This will be Monty's 300th Appearance for United :thumbup:

Well done Monty

 

[keenzy]

It is a 1pm kick off

 

[rachyblade]

Anyone know if you can pay on the day??

 

[Hollinsend]

Anyone know how tickets have been going? Decided to go today but got to the ticket office after closing.

 

[Bladesman]

Think I may put a pound on Hulse scoring.

 

[cooperblade]

20/1 for James Harper to score first. Suppose that's just too much to hope for?

(ADMIN: Let me know if you'd rather not have links like that. I should point out that the online part of WH is now separate to the shops so there's nothing in it for me anyway!)

 

[rachyblade]

tut it's all ticket - no paying on the day. Anyone know if you can buy them and pick them up from derby? If not we wont be going

Would have thought so, they often take tickets back on the coach. Not sure if Rooks is reading, but he'll know the deal and might be able to sort you out (like the legend he is)

You could ring the ticket office and ask them.

 

[rachyblade]

Its ok, thanks, we are sorted now, collecting them from ticket office at derby.

 

[Tinoblade]

Went to watch united players train this morning

Very much doubt Killgallon will be playing as he went down in training and later said he had sprained his ankle

 

[matth]

It's ok, we've got Bromby who can step up to the plate... oh, wait a minute.

 

[keenzy]

Defiantly 1pm kick off?

 

[Monty's_Girl]

Defiantly 1pm kick off?

Yeah definately 100% nailed on!

 

[MAQ]

A P D'URSO

Fourth Official S J Cook

 

[Monty's_Girl]

Early team news.......

Little set to return v Derby (1pm). Blackwell has "one or two niggles"
but hopes to name similar side to the one that drew with West Brom.

 

[Bristol Blade]

Predicitions anyone? I'll go same as last year, a poor performance with us losing 2-1. Hendo to score. Would love us to get something from it though :thumbup:

 

[judge]

harper starts evans rested
6 subs

 

[cooperblade]

Playing well. Quinn playing same role as evans, behind henderson. Goal probably off but flag incredibly late

 

[Bergen Blade]

Yes! Kilgallon!

 

[shorehamview]

After the Star had the wonderful "Will Wendy Leap Above United" article, the answer has to be "Not Today, Bumholes".

 

[SwissBlade]

Get in! Good win today, sounded like we could have stuffed em if we'd pushed on.

Up the Blades!

 

[Vintage Shirt]

slightly caught out with kick off time today, but great win!

What were our fans cheering at after their disallowed goal? Radio Sheffield commentators couldn't work out what they were cheering at and said they must be cheering at nothing?

 

[cooperblade]

Just taking the piss at their fans cheering a non goal. Good atmosphere today. We faded a bit in the 2nd half but deserved the win. Thought it was an og to be honest
