[Tom Bott]

So we're just going to sit back and hope for the best then? Zero attacking threat

Yes were just going to ignore their 13 shots so far.

 

[Sheffsteel]

Love a game like this me. Will be a proper season defining win, brings the team even more together. One in, all in.

Yep....it's turning into a backs to the wall.....almost park the bus type of game now.
Reminds me of the some of the defensive displays we had 2 year ago under Hecky.

Coventry doing loads of attacking but NOT looking like scoring, ironically we're looking reasonably comfortable.
You sense though that Coventry will take risks pushing more and more players forward
also suspect they'll be looking for a penalty....still a long time to go to hold out.

 

[JJBlade]

Bet you don’t switch it off.

Not yet, but you underestimate the amount of times I do turn it off when United are sat back defending. It never works out well for us, ie, Leeds & Middlesboro.
Every other game we've been contributing to apart from those two.

This game means that our contribution is hampered a bit, but it shouldn't be non existent, as it will be.

 

[McGrath]

Not defending well enough to stop crosses coming in here

 

[BangorBlade]

Having took Campbell off there's no one to hold up the ball

 

[Blacksea]

Gilchrist is being run ragged all game

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

Yes were just going to ignore their 13 shots so far.

Yet the 5 at the back is still getting sliced through, but we now have 5ft O'hare to lump the ball to

 

[Not so Slim ane]

Why are we kicking it long to ohare upfront on his own ... I know we're down to 10 men but it's ridiculous

 

[SUFCinks]

Need to get a fucking grip of this game and try and hold the ball and take the sting out of it. Pathetic and lazy on the ball. Just letting them build more and more pressure then handing straight back to them. Its coventry not Liverpool FFS

 

[Sean Thornton]

Ex pig “Cooper wasn’t getting to it and it was going in” result, hits post and goal kick. Ex Pig “ Cooper will say he got his angles right” is he really all Sky have got?

 

[Sheffsteel]

Coventry score a 2nd........but it's offside.

Great defending from Robbo there.

He saw their player in a great position to score but noticed he was just offside
so instead of panicking trying to close him down....Robbo left the Cov player in space.

So when he received the pass..... and scored....Robbo stayed calm knowing he was offside.

Good co-commentary from Danny Hall on Radio Sheffield.

I’m glad you stuck with it.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Get O’Hare off for Oné.

We need an out ball up front and O’Hare isn’t as effective when we’ve not got much of the ball.

I meant 75 mins,but still a great post

 

[DroitwichBlade]

Damn it

 

[drblade]

Ffs

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Well shit

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

Can't believe Peck used his telepathic powers to force their player to clip his own heels, deserved yellow. Seriously wtf is wrong with refs ffs

 

[ml1997]

Souttar lost him.

He was partly at fault for the first goals, him and Anel have been atrocious.

 

[Thrice]

Souttar lost his man there.

 

[drblade]

Totally unmarked. Tallest player on the pitch

 

[SUFCinks]

Inevitable, sit back and let a team dominate and you’ll concede. So stupid.

 

[blade86]

Can't believe Peck used his telepathic powers to force their player to clip his own heels, deserved yellow. Seriously wtf is wrong with refs ffs

Goal from the resulting corner too

 

[Blacksea]

One man short and under siege,crap with 11,crap with 10

 

[drblade]

I called it last time…One to bag a late winner for the mighty Blades.

 

[Blademan89]

These have come to cheat, all they have done all game, begging a pen all game throwing themselves to floor. Trying to convince referee all game. One of worst teams we played ina while.for it.

 

[Not so Slim ane]

Souttar has been shocking today

 

[SB_90]

poor marking from the corner. but again that move all starts from Coventry players & that Japanese player falling to the floor at the 1st opportunity. do they know how to stay on their feet

 

[Mendi]

Crazy game 2-2

 

[fifty shades of blade]

They cant help diving.
