Why is it not on TV?

If you were to move to Comoros, Djibouti, Eswatini or a bunch of other countries I've never heard of, you would be able to watch it legally. But not in the UK. Ridiculous.

 

[Stanthemanfan]

Michael oliver on VAR.... prepare to be shafted!

3-0 Forrest, same line up no goals.

Cheers lad.

On the way to the airport now.

It's thoroughly depressing going into a match against a team that finished 16th last season knowing that we've got no chance of scoring or keeping a clean sheet.

Forest 3-0 Blades

Forest fans think they are in a mess like us and carrying injuries. Strange how fans generally can be so negative!

Yeah they are fucked, imagine only having only MGW, Johnson, Dennis, Awoniyi and Elanga to provide an attacking threat

 

[William Carey]

2-0 Forest win

 

[Blademan18891889]

0-0 draw souza and Hamer to start.

If it’s decided by a VAR decision our set of players will have played phenomenally well..

[CarlMcBlade]

Can't see anything but another loss tbh.
It will take time to gel as a team.
Utb ...!

If we do lose, I hope we at least give em a game. Love to see us playing with a bit more ambition.

 

[skyjam]

Pair Osula wi Marsh up front.It's the only partnership available that's played together.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Only expecting hamer to start and baldock out.

This is going to be a mualing.

 

[Cappy]

Another edition of the away-end neighbour lottery begins tonight. Will we be stood near normal people, or will it again be the most negative cunts known to man….?! So excited to find out.

Given how negative some people were last season, when we were going well, I can only imagine how fired up they will be if we go a goal down early on

UTB

 

[Bell4]

Going to be a painful watch with Treore and Osula up front again.

Who along with Wes , were probably our best two players on Saturday

 

[JayGreen17]

I really fear the worst -
4-0

 

[s4-blade]

Where are blades drinking in nottingham then?

 

[HarryHaslam]

Surprise a few tonight, Osula & Hamer both to score.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Heart and dreams say we are three up by half time and cruise to four , one. However, reality strikes, two down inside first ten, pull one back and then...oh shit.....five, one. But I live in a fantasy world, ask my wife, so three points are a coming.

There’s shedloads of dark fruits on the platform ahead of the 16:40 if that helps.

Depending on time I might have a quick one in Canalhouse.

Nightmare so far. Everywhere checking match day tickets expecting trouble. Blades being directed to brewhouse on the Trent bridge. Decent beer selection in here actually though.

 

[S64 Blade]

2-0 to them. One a soft penalty decided by VAR. We get a goal disallowed for no reason whatsoever.

 

[Kevin Arnott]

I've stuck a playful, if misguided quid on Egan to get the first goal at 33-1. Wish me well Blades

 

[KOP BLADE]

ive put my paata bake meal ive done on hre for god luck so LETS GO blades ,,hammer forest because i dont rate them..utb...

 

[SLB]

I really fear the worst -
4-0

Me too. And after the City game we seriously could be something like P3 W.0 F.0 A11
We'll still be considering thinking about maybe talking about contemplating buying a striker though.

 

[KOP BLADE]
