There are multiple ways of looking at the Charlton defeat and in reflection no opinion would be untrue. Yes, we could take the wronged victim stance (perfect atmosphere enhancer) and blame the over zealous refereeing. We could also shrug our shoulder and take comfort in the fact we played very well up until the sendings off and move on. But being an extremely one-eyed, partisan Blade who always looks at games through the prism of how could my team have done better….I think our composure in front of goal is worryingly poor, when you consider the amount of chances we actually create. Yesterday wasn’t the first time I turned round to my mate and declared we are going to rue these missed chances…

Not sure if the above post is in the wrong thread (yes) or is a warning our women’s team need to take their chances in front of goal!

Lovely stuff. Think it's the first time we've made the 5th round since 2020/21. Also earns an additional 54k in prize money which is not to be sniffed at for the women's side.

Alex Greenwood and Lauren Hemp will be the closest the Blades will get to play against world class players this season.
