[Panini]

Football. Bloody hell.

 

[Belvedere Blade]

GREAT WIN. Very scrappy second half. 3rd time this season had that dodgy ref. I hope that's last time this season

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Mid table no fkin more

 

[Chingo]

Never write dem Blades off

 

[Headshrinker]

Wow, did not see that coming!

Well done!

 

[hull-Blade]

Foderingham won us that game . Bloody outstanding . Get in

 

[Steelcitysenior]

Like days of old. Berge and Wes were feckin awesome. UTB.

 

[FinBlade]

Scripted game, but really enjoyable

 

[Belvedere Blade]

WELL DONE FODERINGHAM. 1 hand penalty save and another CLEAN SHEET

 

[BladesOnToast]

Added time - As long as Blackburn needs ref says.

2 1/2 mins was all we needed in the end

 

[Alan Roberts' Jinking Run]

Season changer that is

 

[Stevo]

Can we still go down ??

 

[SLB]

Mid table no fkin more

I think we could have been 4th but Huddersfield and QPR got late winners. The confidence in the squad must be sky high now though. I'm starting to believe.

 

[Jon Bon II]

Now mathematically safe. Onwards and upwards!

 

[originaltrueblade]

Fucking brilliant

 

[St Albans Blade]

Hopefully another dose of humble pie and custard coming my way from Hecky & Co?

We could possibly be as high as 4th by Wednesday night!

Down to 10 men for the last quarter of the game, against a Top 4 side and pull off a win. Another immense portion of humble pie served up by Hecky & Co!

UTB

Forget that, I can't even do simple maths now I'm so giddy

 

[Trigger]

Have it Mowbray you twat. bend over and spread’em

 

[Mad Mick]

What a win. I'd have taken a draw, but over the moon now. Berge gaffer in first half Wes in second. Wes gets MOM. COYRAWW.

 

[William Large]

To be fair to them they were the best team at the lane this season, but we should have been two up after 30 mins.
I still maintain that they are ‘effective’ rather than really good but they were the better side second half and we had to dig in.
Excellent win tho and some real positives.

 

[Peaktrade]

Oh stfu

I agree

 

[Nagima]

Great win. This team have got resilience.
Super from Wes. Best game Berge has had since he joined us. We finally saw the player we thought we bought. Brilliant to dig out a win. It wasn't classy but that was some match for excitement.

 

[Swannyblade]

Important win that, very reminiscent of Brentford in the promotion season.
Needed it as well given that QPR and Huddersfield managed to get wins

 

[JJBlade]

The squad should really feel unstoppable after that

The problem is, most of the squad are either injured or suspended

 

[KOP BLADE]

They're really missing Bereton-Diaz-Dingdong-Bell up front. Khadre is a tricky player, if a bit whiny. Good to see him close to tears at the end after his shite pen. Baldock graciously consoled and didn't clock him surprisingly. Their centre-backs had good games too.
Sincerely hope that defeat broke them and we don't meet in the playoffs.

Have a watch before it gets taken down:

MGW just HAS to sign for us

In a footballing context, that really is a big problem... Can we still shout COVID-19? Or maybe the Russians are gathering on Cherry Street might work.
