Are we being trollled?

 

[HeySethUTB]

No pace to break, second string defensive line up. Brilliant tactics the old “sit deep and break with no pace”. 6 on the bench, making a statement or not this is what happens when you are made to believe your unsackable, fucks me right off because if your going to admit defeat before you get off the bus at least give some young uns a chance to experience a first team match day. The only reason I’m watching this is because of intrigue.

1-0 win incoming

 

[Jon Bon II]

Any ideas on how to watch if not got BT sport ?

I think it's also being shown on the Horror Channel.

 

[bakeblade]

Honestly can't believe we are not starting burke. It would stop them from completely pushing up on us. We are gonna get pinned in with this line up I fear

Ridiculous not starting Burke, game will be all over before 30 mins. Wilders not learned his lesson after Southampton game

 

[JackSUFC]

This might be the slowest PL side in history

Burke should have been nailed on to play tonight so he could run after our hoofs. Can’t understand it.

Ridiculous not starting Burke, game will be all over before 30 mins. Wilders not learned his lesson after Southampton game

I can't get my head around it. We know Maguire struggles against pace so we play our slowest two strikers

 

[Dan Emery]

Burke should have been nailed on to play tonight so he could run after our hoofs. Can’t understand it.

Perhaps Wilder plans to introduce him when Man Utd are chasing an equaliser after about 80 mins and there's loads of room to run into. Then again....

 

[ghandi]

Decent bet which on which I've had a small wager Manure winning at half-time and full time 5/6 with Bet365.

 

[YES Blade]

I seriously think Wilder wants to be sacked now, if it wasn’t for his pay off he would’ve quit months ago.

Only player we have who might be able to hurt them on the break and CW puts him on the bench

 

[west_yorks_blade]

Too proud to walk, he’s asking to be fired with that line up and bench.

 

[Bladeloyal]

Is this a supporter's forum ? utb

 

[blackydog]

we're going to need a bigger bus...

 

[Belvedere Blade]

The match will be over b4 half time with this crazy line up Wilders selected for tonight against one of the informs team. I will give the match a miss. I am not looking forward to another heavy loss

 

[Chabuddy G]

Not a single midfielder on the bench. At all. 6 subs. Yet no sign of any kids. Even when 1 was on the bench against Plymouth.

What the fuck is wrong with him?

 

[Mojo]

If we get battered I think wilder is gonna get massive criticism for this line up

 

[HeySethUTB]

maybe the plan is to make has many players as possible in this team look that shit that no one next season wants to touch them with a barge pole. Allowing us to keep hold of said shit.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

At least we have Billy's pace on the counter!

 

[A Storm of Blades]

Anyone seen Wilder’s bollocks? Anyone?

 

[YES Blade]

Too proud to walk, he’s asking to be fired with that line up and bench.

No chance! It’s all about money, no manager quits these days. I bet Wilder is gutted to have the only owner that wouldn’t sack the manager after this half season of pure shit.

 

[robbiez666]

Did Rodwell get injured sitting on the bench the other day?

I reckon he has a £10k appearance fee. Not on the pitch, but in general around the ground.

 

[jalfie69]

Wilder is obviously trying to prove a point to the board regarding recruitment or testing their resolve regarding his position. No reason for not filling the bench with up and coming youngsters, even just to give them match day experience especially at a place like old trafford. Something just isn't right

 

[Slugger]

Fuck all this negativity. 5-0 6-0 predictions.

We're not West Brom.

 

[robbiez666]

At least Man U aren't playing 5 attacking players against us. Oh...

 

[originaltrueblade]

Well here’s a way of making us feel better if you had £50,000 you had saved and saved to get would you bet the lot on Manure tonight No ——- of course you wouldn’t Why because as Greavsie said It’s a funny old game

 

[BlairBlade]

These injuries are really hitting us hard!

 

[FMBlade1]

maybe the plan is to make has many players as possible in this team look that shit that no one next season wants to touch them with a barge pole. Allowing us to keep hold of said shit.

I've posted this before, a 'Scorched Earth Policy'

 

[Jan Age]

This getting silly now

 

[robbiez666]

Bryan ahead of Lowe is a look.

 

[Jon Bon II]

we're going to need a bigger bus...

Bigger scoreboard...
