[Antarctic Monkey]

WTF is that

 

[AdamSufc1997]

Worrying that Wilder called it our best transfer window ever and we just look a championship side

 

[nathxnblade]

Ramsdale Jesus Christ

 

[Rufus Smalls]

The difference in the delivery into the box is astonishing.

 

[YES Blade]

Fucking Ramsdale!

 

[Davalon]

Our defending at the back post this season has been fucking pathetic.

 

[Antarctic Monkey]

Clear the fucking lot

 

[Winthorpe Blades]

Bruce dropalot gloved

 

[Stevo]

Time to put strictly on

 

[The Bear]

Ramsdale Jesus Christ

When it's in the goal area it is the 'keepers ball.

Ramsdale that mate was your fault.

 

[drblade]

I’m a supporter of Rammers but that was poor.

 

[A Storm of Blades]

FFS what’s our gameplay here? Sit behind the ball and hoof it? Sick of this wank football

 

[Iceybabey]

Can't handle that Ziyech's left foot.

 

[TJ blade]

Worrying that Wilder called it our best transfer window ever and we just look a championship side

The transfer window was a fucking shambles!!

 

[Swinton Blade]

I’m a supporter of Rammers but that was poor.

Thinking same, needs to come for ball.

 

[SUFCinks]

Do we practice passing in training or copy the john smith advert?

 

[DronnieBlade]

Slow hanging ball.

2 yards out.

Fuck me dead !!!!

UTB

 

[Nah den]

Serious concerns about Ramsdale. Should have got closer to the first, invited pressure with a crap kick and then following free kick palmed it to Werner who hit the bar and the second goal was shocking. He's too short for me. Looks nervous all the time. Is Verrips terrible? Why haven't we seen him other than about 5 mins?

 

[Birley Blade]

Fucking pathetic. Is this what we are now? Score 1 early goal and sit back all game and invite the pressure. Budweiser through TV. Fuck off Blades.

 

[RecordBreakers]

Looks nervous all the time. Is Verrips terrible? Why haven't we seen him other than about 5 mins?

Serious concerns of wilder with money

 

[Ingle way]

Brewster and Lowe both look a worry.

UTB

Rammers needs to settle into this role - and fast. Last years keeper saves both IMO

Fodringham is better the verrips. Verrips one for the future perhaps

 

[Headshrinker]

It is easy to blame Ramsdale but it is not easy to play behind this so called defense.

He made a superb save just now.

 

[Nah den]

We simply don't have enough technical ability to keep any sort of possession. Football without the ball is knackering.

 

[Stevo]

Can't handle that Ziyech's left foot.

It's certainly up there with Daniel day lewis'

 

[A Storm of Blades]

Ramsdale is the least of our worries. Where the fuck has our team gone? What is this timid cowardly shit? How many more games before this negative, hoof shit gets thrown in the bin and we go after sides? Giving Liverpool, City and Chelsea the ball for 90 minutes and sit 10 men 40 yards with instruction to hoof high and long from our own goal is amateurish and frankly embarrassing.

 

[1987]

Rammers having a bad un, shouldnt have conceded a corner in the first place eother. First 10 minutes we were our older selves, since then weve been the nervous team weve been most of the season. We can worry these if we just give it a go.

 

[VwBlade]

Every single player in red and white looks utterly devoid of ability, effort, willingness and fight. Half of them look like they can't be arsed, Brewster and Lundstram especially. Its been a good ride lads and lasses but unfortunately, we're as good as down.

 

[Geordie Blade]

Bravery and one-on-ones are the areas where I think Ramsdale is better than Henderson, so that was a bit disappointing.

 

[Sheffsteel]

Serious concerns of wilder with money

Disagree.....virtually every fan insisted we must buy Berge and Brewster
but said we’d have no chance because we don’t have the ambition to spend big.

As often the case...after the event.....damned if you do....damned if you don’t
