Roy's View From... Pre-Match View From Burnley

[Roygbiv]

Pre-Match View From Burnley — The View From

"should expect to see a bruising encounter from an in-your-face Blades outfit led by striking pair Oliver McBurnie and Iliman Ndiaye. The Blades need to win so a 1-1 draw looks inevitable, neither team will want to lose." "6 pointer" "think we have to be a bit more pragmatic, given potential...

Maybe first?

“it’s going to be between us and Sheff Utd I think”

Couldn’t agree more. The game will definitely be desided by those two teams


Cheers Roygbiv

Cheers Roy

Few level headed comments mixed with a few grandeur merchants.

 

[blade too long]

important game but just one of forty six you have to be up for

a 2-0 win for us levels up the gd and gives us the chance to go top with 3 points v rotherham ,,,,, easy said
but much harder to complete on grass

they were very lucky to beat Rotherham with a goal close to midnight earned with a harsh second yellow which the Burnley player play acted for that cost Rotherham the match
other teams supporters seem oblivious to our injury crisis, but bemoan maybe one of theirs Brownhill missing

 

[Wards]

A win would be lovely but I wouldn't be disheartened with a draw given the injury situation.

 

[Alwood]

Not at all sure about this one what with all the injuries and niggles we have. Yes, we have a good Championship squad, but we certainly need it. Still, with all our problems, we are third. Fingers crossed, then, and I do love it when the opponents' supporters are optimistic. Cheers Roy.

Didn’t realise Brownhill wasn’t available for them so that’s a plus.

Always liked the look of him when I’ve seen him play, especially at Championship level.

 

[BLADES1988]

“We really are something special and we seem to be getting better. People bang on about Sheff Utd and Norwich but they are not in our universe just now. Of course we could dip for any number of reasons but just now there is no-one near us.”

Oh aye mate, scraping two wins against two bobbins sides with the last kick of the game is absolutely out of this world .

 

[Fatlad666]

Morning Roygbiv cheers

 

[Argentinemanager]

Cheers roy, i see were still stereotyped as a physical side, we should let our dwarves know

 

[brownblade]

Wouldn't like to call it. Burnley definitely favourites. Would love to smash them 4-0 (obviously).

"Despite lacking in qualifications I used to cook all the hot food for the concourses at Bramall Lane "
Sounds like a fantastic operation...now we know why the food is absolutely shite!

The game before that v Norwich was won by an 82nd minute penalty, so not exactly a one sided walkover either.

 

[FlamingLip]

Burnley favourites. Expected comments to show more confidence

 

[Bartleby]

what is this "kitchen" they are talking about?

 

[Harry's Game]

“Sheff U had a couple hobble off yesterday who you might expect not to make the very next game.”

no shit?


“I’d take a 0-0 now”

me too


“It will be a hostile atmosphere”

no it won’t


“they will fly at us from the first whistle”

no we won’t


“My advice is eat before you get there or grab a pie pre-match. And if they still have the same set up, avoid the burgers!”

Sound advice

Since when was the food "cooked" ??????

Thanks Roy.

I’m thinking it might be played over two halves also, but I’m not so sure.

 

[Charlieblade]

Their momentum v our team spirit. Hopefully makes a cracking good game.












For us!

 

[ForgeBlade]

I see that despite having the most crocked team in the history of football, we are still a bunch of big, ugly, in-your-face cloggers.

 

[originaltrueblade]

Ha ha they are not in our universe …have problems finding the ground then

Thanks Roy

 

[Katzenjammer]

“We really are something special and we seem to be getting better. People bang on about Sheff Utd and Norwich but they are not in our universe just now."

To be fair, 'special' is a word I commonly associate with Burnley fans too.

 

[Snowflake]

Cheers roy, i see were still stereotyped as a physical side, we should let our dwarves know

I think McB,Baldock, Doyle and Sharp would not agree with you and I am not sure that Fleck would consider himself soft !!
We are a physical side, but not full of giants.

 

[Cassius Kray]

"I expect some rotation as a few players are looking a little jaded with all the football at the moment and the last things we want is any unnecessary injuries."

Slightly triggering to hear other teams worying about being 'a little jaded' when half our sqaud look like they've been on the Somme.

 

[CPB]

I actually expected them to be more confident of winning. They are on a good run and don't seem to know when they are beat.

If we can manage a decent performance and a win it could give us a good confidence boost too.

I'm not actually overly optimistic myself. Think we have it in us, but think we are playing them at a bad time for us still.

 

[Sheffsteel]

Burnley favourites. Expected comments to show more confidence

I think it’s because they’re a down to earth bunch. All that matters for them is promotion so a draw would be a good result for them.

It’s just a shame we’ve had so many long term injuries this season, the worse in the entire EFL. Quite a few will be back in January and that’s when I’m expecting us to start dominating this league.

 

[SUFC Guy]

Cheers Roy.

3 points would be huge for us and our confidence going into the last 2 games. An early goal for us will get the crowd going.

I've a feeling that they will score, but so should we....

2-1 United (Ndiaye 2)

Wes

Baldock
Anel
Egan
JLT
Stevens

Fleck
Norwood
Doyle

Ndiaye
McB

Subs:
Sharp to rattle some Burnley defender's ankles
Osborn to inject fresh energy for when Flecky tires
Khadra for an apology for being subbed so early in the last game
2 other subs to waste some time in the last 10 mins as we'll be 2-1 up

He's not playing, injured ya chuff..
