The Blades fans have been loud and proud tonight ️️

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Great backing from the travelling Blades tonight !

 

[Montymagic]

They think it’s all over…..it is now.
3-0 and even we couldn’t mess up the 2nd leg now.

Way to jinx it.

Cancel Wembley everybody, sheffsteel has ruined it .....

 

[Montymagic]

Sod it the transmission from Now has cut off just before 3rd goal. Just a blank screen.

Blank screen or some kind of ...

Way to miss the fucking point, why do you think we’re on the receiving end of fines so much when people have preconceived notions about us as a club, and the manager himself only adds to that reputation

Who cares if we get fines! Who cares what anyone’s notion is of us as a club??

 

[Sportbilly /Detroit Blade]

I think we win 3v0 tonight.

Ye of little faith

 

[YES Blade]

Great win, bring on Monday!

 

[FriethBlade]

Great performance

 

[Foxy]

Hope Widz doesn't scroll back to pre-match shoutbox

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Did Kiefer get deliberately banged in the gob at the end ?

 

[Th!stledo]

Not sure why Hamer getting involved in scuffles after the game?
Brilliant but can be so frustrating at times.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Really good solid professional win that. Even before the red we created the better and most chances.

 

[Iceybabey]

Wilder keeping the celebrations with the fans short. I like it. There's a job that's not yet finished.

 

[ForgeBlade]

Fucking YES Blades. I'd have been happy with a draw tonight. Going back to the lane with a 3 goal cushion is amazing. Barring a colossal fuckup we're off to Wembley. Would be nice to mark the 100 years with another Wembley win...?

 

[ml1997]

Good performance, but nothing’s done yet. Roll on Monday.

 

[Hockey'sBeard]

Did Kiefer get deliberately banged in the gob at the end ?

Yes absolutely that’s what wilder was complaining about. - he got taken out

 

[jt64]

That will do

 

[Panini]

How is it 100% correct decision. It’s subjective, couple of em at half time thought it could’ve been given.

More of a general point than a reply to you, but I fans do tend to overlook what "subjective" really means.

Just because a decision might have been different doesn't mean that it should have been different.

If we're saying a decision is only correct if nobody thinks it should've gone the other way, then we'll be waiting a long time.

He saw Moore get taken out and poleaxed . And looks like straight in mouth looking at all blood after

 

[Nick Jansky]

Davies makes such a difference, head & shoulders our best midfielder. Such a shame he can’t stay fit.

 

[PrestwichBlade]

Excellent performances all round. It was the professional, level headed approach I was looking for. Well done

 

[PrestwichBlade]

Davies makes such a difference, head & shoulders our best midfielder. Such a shame he can’t stay fit.

I think he's a terrific player

 

[Wickersley Blade]

Dem Blayards!❤

 

[utd4ever]

Great win tonight. I hate BC so much glad we go into 2nd leg 3-0 up.

 

[Hockey'sBeard]

He saw Moore get taken out and poleaxed . And looks like straight in mouth looking at all blood after

And need to be careful not to get drawn in for 2nd leg , looking to retaliate and ref will get us down to 10 men. - any excuse.
We need to stay professional calm and not get rattled into that - everyone knows our record this season of getting in trouble - feels that’s only way to stop us getting to Wembley now

 

[Wickersley Blade]

I think he's a terrific player

I agree, so much class. If only he could stay fit, just what we need.

 

[Steve.C]

Great subs
