They’ll park more busses on Sunday than at Greenland Road on Christmas Day (Ask yer grandad)

yeah i cant see them coming and doing owt else if they only get beat 2 - 0 they will claim a victory and be throwing their shirts in to the lane end theirs no way they will have a go at us

We have that three games in six days schedule yet again. Generally, CW rests players for the middle game, but it's Coventry this time and I can't see him wanting us to be anything other than at full strength for that one. Might he be tempted to start a weaker team tomorrow? If, for example, the crumbling wreck of a club we were up against tomorrow was anyone other than Wednesday, he definitely would.

Start strong batter them(3-0) then make changes at HT if need be.

Coventry & Stoke done their job. time to do ours

Does anybody know how soon after the game finishes the full match highlights are available on a catch up service? I'll be working during the game so ideally would like to turn my phone off and watch it as live later Sunday afternoon or evening. And I don't have a way to record it.

Littl’ old SWFC, not so big (as Stanton the latest to admit it says).

It does matter, they are worried, it will hurt.

It’s a derby and anything can happen although I’m expecting this to be a pretty straight forward 3 points, beware they’ve only been losing by odd goal last few games. However, If we don’t get 3 pts it will have them all believing they can use the term ‘massive’ again (sorry Mr Stanton/Chansiri) and not shut up about it for the next 50 years.

Need to better our Bouncing Day massacre and shut them out.

Remember everyone..
If they score they've won.
If they draw they've won.
If they conceded less than 4 they've won.
And if we win, by any margin.. its embarrassing if to celebrate

Lets get these shitbags humbled,humiliated and relegated. COYRAWW

Skysports have the highlights on within the hour, no idea about full playback or catchups though.

What time will the Wendies be walking down Bramall Lane? Be so good to give them a warm welcome. Where do they actually start walking from??

West St and Division St I think. At a guess they will arrive around half an hour before kick off .

Sweet dreams Bladies and gentlemen, got a big day tomorrow

I hope not. We're better off taking the easier 3 points against Wednesday and not risking an embarrassing slip up. QPR is also more important than the Coventry game. While I'd like us to go toe to toe with Coventry, we're better off going full strength for the other two games.

 

[ForgeBlade]

Today's the day folks. Into them from minute 1. No pity, no mercy, no sympathy. Let's send them down with style.

 

[noire]

I have a very bad feeling about today…..

 

[DaveBassettsgoneonholiday]

22 years ago today since Dad died. We have this ongoing thing that he'll be up there propping the bar up with his good friend Norman, and Graham has the Magnet flowing as he did when he had The Sportsman.
Come on Blades, do it for Dad.
And Dad,if you have any influence with the big fella......

Wilder said Jairo is available for today so we've got plenty of strength in depth to cope with the 3 games. He will definitely go full strength today and I think the only surprise might be Campbell starts instead of Ohare due to his record v the pigs with Ohare coming in against his former team.
Cooper
Seriki Tanganga Bindon Burrows
Brooks Peck Phillips Hamer
Bamford Campbell

That's the spirit

 

[Bell4]

That's the spirit

Easy win

Sending them down officially - a once in a lifetime opportunity that will go into the record books for ever

I have 4 grandchildren- all Owls , son in law - Owl , son in law- parents and Grandparents - Owls . Recently deceased mum - Owl - deceased dad - Owls fanatic

So - a very difficult day for me in many ways - hate to see my grandchildren upset .


COME IN YOU RED and WHITE WIZZARDS - send em to oblivion

Just sayin

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Makes some noise Blades! We need to show them the gap today!

 

[ml1997]

Cannot bring myself to participate in the “let’s get 5” mentality, but just win. I’d be delighted with a 1-0. If we’re 3 ahead by 80 minutes then we can think about a hammering but it’s a derby, the first duty is to not lose. UTB

But if we win 1-0 that means they’ve won - I think (not sure how many we need to win by for it to be an official win )

Let’s go for 5 and take it from there ? (Maybe that’s a draw tbh?)

 

[Pintor75]

Take every game as it comes all this 3 games business is the same for every club, we should be looking to win every game so full team out, I'm going for 2-0 or 3-0 , UTB

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Relegation, relegation, relegation, that's what they need...

 

[Dutch Blade]

Let’s boost our confidence a bit and score 7! Maybe we can have Cooper take a penalty kick if we get one! Omw to the stadium, UTB!

 

[Dkc]

If we relegate them at the Lane then finally win the play-off final at Wembley it would definitely be a contender for the best season ever.

[BornOnShorehamStreet]

Let this match be ...

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Line up as expected

O'Hare instead of Campbell
