pollster….ya fool, where are you now?

 

[Belvedere Blade]

2nd double of season in a week for the BLADES. WELL DONE BLADES

 

[WestYorksBlade]

Cracking win and performance United

Nice to do the double over a side we always seemed to lose to prior to this season

 

[Belvedere Blade]

 

[SharpAsAblade]

Brooks MOTM for me

 

[bonobo]

Think was one of the best all around performances of the season. Very consistent start to finish. More and more players contributing to our form.

 

[Wetwang blade]

Roll on the transfers! UTB.

 

[espoo blade]

Not sure what’s going on with Coops. Surely, he has to save that?

UTB

Took a deflection so a bit harsh, but maybe could've done better.

 

[Iceybabey]

Good win overall. Dominated for the most part and hardly let em have a sniff tbh apart from a poor late goal to concede- players will be disappointed with that. Top performance though individually and collectively.

 

[Thrice]

8 points behind 6th. It's doable.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Chance to go 5 off the play offs before everyone else plays. Consistency is key from here on

7 wins in 10 from the next ten would be outstanding

 

[Klaatu Barada Nikto]

That last minute corner fucked this

Ouch

 

[BangorBlade]

Chip chip chip chip now 6 points off play offs.

 

[Balham]

NEW YEAR?
Same old brain dead Wilder.
Please please please keep him away from all transfers
And that imbecile Bettis!

Reasons to sack Wilder this team
1. The shite Tanganga captain - Titanic like. 60 minutes coasting at Stoke till his F up costs the goal!
(After ref error)
2. Bindon played out of position than God forbid the left footed centre back he has discarded already
3. Two mediocre centre backs with wing backs.
4. 3 left footed midfield payers but the bloke ignoring the left side but nominally paying there is a light weight slow no 10 who could not tackle a rice pudding.
5. Brooks potentially our MVP played disabled and wasted on the right WRONG wing.
6. Millions wasted on Cannon
7. Shirt/place wasted on Cannon
8. 3 players allowed to attack most - OHare Bamford Cannon must be amongst the very slowest in professional football played in England today.
9. Chuckle brothers tactics employed every game we got two goals up
What will the opposition score if we do go front this time?
2 as last time, 4 as Wrexham, 3 as Preston or luckily last time out against an appalling Stoke just the one gifted by a clown defender but 'thought' to be Captain material.

All assuming he has learnt nothing the past three seasons and there is no sign of that happening.

F off Wilder and COH if they cannot do better than this shite.

This is a lot of words and all they do is explain that you don’t have a clue about football.

There was that one that clearly came off Cannon that we got a corner from

Spineless as well as pathetic and sad. I'll only pick one of your pre-match points - Brooks (MotM) looked anything but disabled.

The thing that really annoys me, apart from your childish negativity every match before a ball has even been kicked, when you get it wrong, afterwards you are nowhere to be seen. Why not come back and try to justify your stance? I'll tell you why - you are without spine.

And if you are some sort of parody account, here's some advice: give it up because you are not funny, amusing, or entertaining in the slightest.

 

[b1ade4life]

That's it,.make him feel better

 

[Heely bottoms underpants]

What the hell was Wrexham all about.

Great performance from the Blades tonight.
Well done boys
UTB.

Have you ever thought of being a football pundit?
Your understanding of football is outstanding!!!

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

It's good that we won, it's always the best result you can get for me

Soumare MOTM

 

[FriethBlade]

What's really impressive is our last 3 wins we have absolutely dominated the games and never really looked in any trouble. If we can start to cut out some of the aberrations there is no reason why we cant make the play offs. With sides like Watford, Preston and Hull in the top 6 it's not a vintage year and if we strengthen this month we can definitely gatecrash the top 6

 

[Th!stledo]

Wilder confirming that Gary McSheffrey is the man due the kudos for bringing us the success in the set pieces.

 

[Harrisblade]

Tanganga scores, and you're a cnut

To be accurate, he's a cnut whether Tanganga scores or not!

 

[Geordie Blade]

I don’t normally like to be too critical of players’ abilities. After all, they’re all far better at football than I am.

However…

I cannot understand what any manager sees in Luke Thomas. He seems to get outpaced and overpowered every time I see him.

 

[The Fox]

Strange game , great win.

All a bit pinball at times, lots that didn't quite come off , half chances given away without being punished and a ref who didn't have a clue.

All in all played well when it counted and another 3 goals , cant complain at that
UTB..

 

[Minty]

Come on pollster, please grace us with more of your wisdom. Or is it past your bedtime and mummy has used parental controls on the Wi-Fi

 

[Gin&Juice]

2nd double of season in a week for the BLADES. WELL DONE BLADES

Are you a robot?

You mean cunt !
