Gunna be 5 easily this. No way does Heckingbottom keep his job after today. Can’t carry on like this all season whether you like the bloke or not these results + performances are woeful

It won't make any difference who the manager is our squad is weak we will lose next week it's not Heckys fault he wasn't given money to at least compete in the Prem

 

[b1ade4life]

WHENS THE NEXT INTERNATIONAL BREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ATL Recs]

F

simple fact is you cant compete in the premier league with a team of championship players just like pigs with a team of league 1 players cant compete in the championship both sheffield teams will be relegated through lack of bringing quality players in abdullah has a lot to answer for complete waste of time getting promoted if your not going to back the manager forest spent 100m last season and only just survived 26m wont do it im afraid

If we spent 120 million plus and wages to match and ended up getting relegated we’d be in a worse place than our neighbours
Promotion was about the short term sustainability of the club nothing more than sustainability to keep us competitive in the championship even yo yo between the divisions until /if we are under new ownership

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

Saliba and Zinchenko have completed more passes than our entire team combined in this match.

 

[Peaktrade]

Is this heckis goodbye
Osborn and now .. Fleck

yes i understand what your saying 100% but we needed to spend at least double what we have just to finish 17th and have a chance of surviving

 

[SUFCinks]

heck’s put flecky on to help get the 3 goals.

 

[Northernsoulblade]

Shocking

 

[Espania blade]

I don't think anyone would have stopped two of their goals - why the pile on Wes' ??

Having said that Bogle is awful

 

[Jon Bon II]

Tell you what, if we don't score soon, we're going to end up losing this.

 

[RWE]

Yeah our squad is weak but there is literally no fight or care in any of the performances bar Man Utd the other week for the 1st half. No club would keep someone who has drawn 1 and lost 9 out of 10 no matter what league.

 

[Espania blade]

Damage limitation for the last twenty minutes, I fear the worst!

 

[MiddleEastBlade]

This is sad to watch, I feel for Hecky and I even feel for the players. Had we done better prior to this then we would give this match a wide berth wouldn’t we? However nothing is going to change. I am in the bring Wilder in camp, just because he may put some fire in the bellies, could be wrong but we need this guys - blame the owner, blame others but whilst I feel for Hecky, we need to restore some dignity. I don’t feel like I have been watching the Sheffield united I have always known since 1992

 

[Toronto Blade]

Hecky should not have given Fleck and Norwood extensions and got rid of Sharp. We could have put their salaries to good use.

 

[SUFCinks]

Am i right in thinking our only shot was that gastly slash from hamer in the first half from the half way line that trickled out for a goal kick?

 

[Bladeslife]

Yes you are correct

 

[RWE]

Am i right in thinking our only shot was that gastly slash from hamer in the first half from the half way line that trickled out for a goal kick?

Yup, and apparently one that was blocked according to stats but can’t remember it

 

[bakeblade]

Norwood has been really really bad today

 

[SUFCinks]

Yup, and apparently one that was blocked according to stats but can’t remember it

Yeh i can’t remember anything else

 

[SUFCinks]

Not been impressed with hamer at all for about 5/6 games now

 

[MagnifiqueShorehamStreet]

Bye Bye Hecky you are thick and useless. You are not a PL manager.

And you Sir, are an idiot!

 

[Jon Bon II]

 

[SUFCinks]

i’m all out of moans. Have a nice eve blades

 

[Chris the Blade]

Can't believe we're still sitting back. We need 4 goals and time is running out

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Is that an attempt at satire?

 

[fifty shades of blade]

The fanny who was rolling around with his arm in the air soon recovered when the pen was given. Fcking fanny.

 

[Shakespeare blade]

Osborn and Norwood combined to give away another stupid penalty ffs

 

[Bell4]

Is that an attempt at satire?

If it is it’s the only attempt we’ve had in over an hour

 

[Belvedere Blade]

And you Sir, are an idiot!

So r u

 

[Chilttheblade]

What is the point of Oliver Norwood ?
