View From West Brom

[vas borbokis]

Thanks Roy.
Fewer bitter comments than expected but most still think we are just hardworking and not good enough for top 2 - whereas I think we are on top of the form charts last 10 games!
Keep it going Chris & Alan.
Remarkable considering the injuries and suspensions we've had to carry of late!

“Thought Sheffield United were a dirty bitty side only interested in gamesmanship and time wasting.....

....and scoring a great goal, and creating some other great chances from wonderful, fast paced, skilful football, and pressing you into making mistakes and defending resolutely and, well, doing all the things your team didn't. Not sure what that makes your lot then!

Happy days. Quite fair comments from the majority, funny how many fans only see Leeds and Norwich as the top two. We just don't seem to get a mention, keep this form up though.......

We will do after we've sorted Leeds out in a couple of weeks time. The stark realisation that we are the real deal will then hit the footballing world. On balance, it has to be said that many of the doubters still come from within, even after having the benefit of watching us regularly over the course of the season. Just believe what your own eyes are telling you folks!

 

[SUFC Guy]

There's some real lemons and bitterness (not so) cleverly disguised between those comments and compliments...

“We made a good well organised championship team look better than they are really but again not surprised. Just scratching my head. Fair play to Sheff Utd . They look much more like a team than we do. “

“Sheff Utd had a weakened and makeshift defence tonight and we haven’t laid a glove on them. We’re getting worse going forward and the defending is as shambolic as ever. That’s automatics out of the window. Can’t see past Norwich and Leeds walking it now. Time to start looking for a proper head coach, away form the only thing keeping him in a job.”

“I thought Sheffield United were a decent side, nothing special based on tonight but also dont think they really got out of 1st gear it was that easy for them. They thoroughly deserved to win and to be fair you can see why there fans were so confident as they are a better team than us, i dont like them as a club but it would be good to see a team who plays that way go into the premier league as they have a go. “

“Players had very little passion today and sheffield united arent a particularly goods side nor for a minute do i think they will go up but they wanted it more than us”

“I don’t actually know if Shef Utd are any good, as they didn’t need to be against us. All they had to do was work hard, press us when we had the ball knowing that we would eventually pass it to them. A solid, workmanlike performance which sees at least one team promoted every year, such as Hudds Town and Cardiff in recent years. “

“Sheff Utd are hard working but ain’t world beaters. “

“Regards Sheffield United I thought they were a functional side nothing more, still expect to finish comfortably above them, and would be more than happy to meet them in the play offs if we don’t make top 2."

“Even in defeat you can see that we have the better team”

And...

“We dominated just didn’t take our chances. Still think we’ll win the league”

...wow. Are you Wendy in disguise?!

Probably that Wendy mole Pig Metcalfe

 

[FATTYFOULKE]

Some real deluded comments there. Also some very bitter. I see once again it’s all about how their team performed and nothing to do with how they were made to play like that by us.
Listening to the link to their football phone in as I speak and it’s all about how their team played poorly apart from one caller who just said we were the best team they’ve played and they should take a look at Chris Wilder for next manager.

Lol.

Cheers Roy, brilliant read.

 

[Harrisblade]

Some great comments:

Didn't deserve it - check
We're not very good - check
Solid and organised - check

Like a set of pigs from the Midlands.

And don't forget that their poor little legs were tired out after playing QPR

 

[1973Blade]

I'm sorry, but has a West Brom fan just criticised us for diving around? The same West Brom who have Dwight Gayle playing for them? A West Brom fan moaning about diving is like Donald Trump complaining about the amount of lies told in politics!

“Sheffield United were the better side and probably deserved to win. Disgraceful from Rodriguez to be honest, that’s not the way we should be playing. Though if he scored it’d be a different story, I can guarantee that!”

Cheers Roy, team of cheating over rated has beens

 

[FTPE]

Thanks Roy, I like how he keeps the dickhead statements for the bottom part.
It keeps you interested and let's you finish reading it on a high note of sour grapes.

 

[Groucho Blade]

Cheers Roy! Great work as ever.

Another team that we only beat because they didn’t turn up... Funny how that always seems to happen
Still seem a really entitled bunch, don’t they?

 

[Roygbiv]

Thanks Weirdo, how’s the hangover?

To be honest I was home quite early but my computer had a virus so was up till 3am trying to fix it. No idea what was wrong because I didn't even have to look at any porn last night

 

[ilovesufc]

Roygbiv think you need to produce a "Theme from The View From" album at the end of the season! UTB X

 

[Broomhall Blade]

A bit more contrite than their pre-match view from!

Most seem to acknowledge we are a good team some still believe they will win the league :-(
A draw against Leeds would be ideal for us.

Leeds to some how lose on Tuesday at QPR. Then a Draw on Friday against WBA.

 

[GreasyChipBeattie]

Great stuff Roymand x

"Got themselves in front after a mistake"

Did anyone else see this mistake where we played it out from the back, on the floor between 6 or 7 players, through midfield, up to their byline and cut it back for Dowell to head over the keeper into the corner of the net.... without any of their players getting anywhere near a touch on the ball!

Some mistake that was

What 'A' grade a tool he is.

 

[Davalon]

In all fairness you can't use a few comments on the internet to define a fan base.

The Baggies we spoke to in the pubs before the game we're all absolutely spot on and talked plenty of sense, including being very fair about us.

I was literally just thinking that, what mistake led to our goal? We playing from well into our own half and scored.

 

[Cappy]

Cheers Roy.

Do you give opposition fans advanced notice that you'll soon be quoting them, so they have time to ingest the **** tablets?

What’s this cunt on?

[Liverpool blade]

Cheers Roy. A few fair comments but still some bitter twisted deluded comments in there!!!.
They find it hard to accept the fact that they were beaten by a better team!!.
Can’t really expect anything else from a self entitled set of fans from an ex premiership side. Hahaha they can moan all they want. UTB

 

[Punk Blade]

I don’t actually know if Shef Utd are any good, as they didn’t need to be against us. All they had to do was work hard, press us when we had the ball

Don’t know if we’re any good, then describes us being good.

When will the rest of the footballing world learn that it’s a sport of high energy and commitment, not a contest of whose players are most famous and cost the most money? This is such a great competitive league, but a few more ought to join us playing football in it.

 

[CarlMcBlade]

How can you like deluded arseholes like that. We were the better team all over the park, yet they still think they’re gonna win the league.

 

[Doddyontheball]

Thanks Roy, a brilliant,job well done. These former Premier team fans can’t believe that they can be beaten by the likes of us and so they unleash condescending bile. Perhaps they haven’t got over being relegated whenWolves came up and thought it would be an easy walk in the park.

Just to remind everyone that this was billed by everyone as huge game in the championship before kick off ( before the earlier games in fact ) it was seen as a game that could make or break promotion for each team

So if they're fans think they lost because they're players weren't up for it ( which is how it comes accross) then it doesn't matter how expensive they're players are they will be in the championship for a long time as even a play off final might be an inconvenience for them

Reminds me of us when we went down under Bassett it was difficult to get excited about championship games

 

[Rodley]

SALTY

 

[coaxingstar71]

Mostly surprisingly magnanimous comments following their comments pre-match.

 

[CarlMcBlade]

The more and more I read from these arsehole teams (no bigger than us) with a bit of cash. The more and more I tend to have empathy with Leeds.......... I know

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

Why do teams use hardworking as an insult?
