Unpopular opinion: the celebrations were a bit OTT

[The Crab]

While pig fans are a set of bellends. I’ve also heard Blades fans singing “die die piggy” as well. So it’s not worth getting all righteous about it. I don’t genuinely think people want opposition players to die, it’s just a song.

Both teams have idiots amongst their supporters, it’s nuts to claim otherwise.

Back to the OP, we absolutely didn’t over celebrate, they have a particularly high opinion of themselves as a club, we’d just battered them.

A disgraceful song sung by fuckwits on both sides

Imagine not taking a photo of the team that just achieved the greatest away win, in a derby rivalry of at least a 130 years.

I'd add that Roy Keane is a cunt who deliberately tries to end careers over petty rivalries, and leaves his national team in the world cup shit because mick Mccarthy can't arrange the team camp to his expected standards. Twat.

And just in case there's still anyone giving Keane's opinion on team togetherness any sort of respect, a reminder of a lesser know fact....

Keane's 2nd game as assistant manager for the Irish national team coincided with a well-paid offer to fly to Paris and work as a studio pundit for ITV for the Champions league final.

No prizes for guessing what choice loyal Roy took.

Can’t believe Peck celebrated on his knees when he scored tonight, he should have apologised and walked back to the halfway line sensibly.

Can't believe you didn't read what I actually said...oh wait yes I can

But he was expected to score the penalty so he shouldn’t have celebrated surely?!

What a colossal f'king sad existence.

We aren't going to make Europe, win leagues, push for Champions league football. This is us, and if you can't enjoy hammering your closest rivals away from home, then what's the point in supporting us.

Not going to make Europe? Look at the list of English clubs that have played in Europe. I don’t see why we can’t aim to get there and who knows we might even be able to win a major trophy one day!

Whilst beating Wednesday will always be great no matter how shit they are, this isn’t us. It isn’t really an achievement. We need to judge ourselves against the rest of English football and not just aim to be better than Wednesday.

We took a photo of our players in front of our fans after the biggest winning margin over our rivals in over 70 years.

Do you think we've been spoiled too much with silverware recently or something? Not sure if you've noticed but we haven't won a trophy or a one off match of any significant for 100 years.

F(_)ck me

Ok let's consider a hypothetical.

At the end of the season SWFC get kicked out of the EFL and are put down to the 10th tier of non-league like AFC Wimbledon.

We are drawn against them in the FA Cup away.

Their team are filled with youth players and non-league players on minimum wage.

We win 4-0, a historic margin. Is that a great achievement on our part?

Should we do a team photo as if we had won a trophy?

 

[ReeceofBDTBL]

Ludicrous comparison, if our team wasn't on it we wouldn't have won 3-0. They'd only won 2 points less than us so far this season, it was by far the biggest game of their season and it was at their ground.

You're trying to make out like it was a non-event and somehow doesn't count as a derby win which is utter nonsense. Yes it isn't as significant as the 4-2 in 2017 because of the situation but its still a great day for our club to assert itself as number 1 in the city and its only a photo ffs.

3-0, on terrestrial television, in front of a packed house of fans (who ABSOLUTELY thought they could beat us) and against a team who had got results against better teams than us. They didn't play the youth team against us and you most certainly did not expect us to play as well as we did because none of us did. We'd not seen the likes of Riedewald, Campbell or Ben Mee put in a 90 minutes of that quality all season.

Going off like we've won a trophy what the hell are you talking about?
'Woah ho hoahhhhh taking a photo in front of their fans that is craaaaaaaaaazy'

I think you’re clutching at straws now, making up a completely random scenario to try and make your OP sound a bit less daft?!

The thing that makes the Sheffield Derby more intense than other cities is that we’re always in the same league when it happens. In my lifetime it’s never been a game that can comfortably be won by either team based on form or league status and has often gone the opposite way to league position and form.

They’d earned a few less points than us so far this season and it was at their ground. the argument that we expected to win and therefore we shouldn’t celebrate is absolute nonsense on that basis.

If you think otherwise you probably need to find another sport/team/hobby.

I never said I had an issue with how the team celebrated, I have no problem at all with how they acted on Sunday. It’s great to beat your local rivals and that should be enjoyed.

I have issue with posts that put the club down, that are negative and suggest we’ll never be able to achieve anything of note.

If Palace can win the FA Cup and Forest can play in Europe, I see no reason why we can’t aim to achieve something that similar sized clubs as ours have achieved.

I’m just saying we shouldn’t measure success with beating Wednesday or finishing higher in the league than them. We need to aim higher.

Absolutely agree Sir,I left the ground after seeing this disgraceful behavior and show of unwarranted emotions in public !!
