Felt a bit sorry for SWFC today

[Rodley]

Despite myself, I felt sorry for them. Despite a bit of a rally and the goal, that side will struggle in League One. No quality, no leadership and a manager who has done absolutely nothing wherever he’s been.

The only thing they’ve got to look forward to is James Bord taking them over, or a protracted car crash watching the takeover fall apart. Bord was pretty diabolical for us and if they don’t get taken over fast, they could be due another points deduction next season. Could League Two be on the cards?

I heard some muppet on the train talking about “Older, Bigger, Better”. Even that sounded half hearted. Looking at BDTBL and hearing the progress of the Dore new training facility, we really are moving decades ahead of them. They’ve got nothing going for them.

Counterpoint: I didn’t feel sorry for them. Not at all.

Counterpoint: I didn’t feel sorry for them. Not at all.

Nor me

 

[Rufus Smalls]

I feel about as sorry for them as they would do for us.

 

[184blade]

Me neither.

I feel more sorry for Andrew mountbatten the nonce than those cunts

 

[Esteban Cambiasso]

Don't feel sorry for them because their fans are complete bell ends ... They probably still think they are a bigger club than Real Madrid despite them being shit for decades and being the worst team in the history of the 2nd tier of English football by a mile... Feel more embarrassed that we didn't stick 6 or 7 past them

Counterpoint: I didn’t feel sorry for them. Not at all.

Agreed. If the positions were reversed they would be absolutely loving it and ripping into us big time.

I think last 5-10 minutes of the first half the United fans were a bit like “these are absolutely shit it’s like beating kids up” then the sending off made it more of a game and reintroduced both fans into it.

Ideally we’d have battered them, but it was probably more of an enjoyable game from an ‘edge your seat’ aspect the way it went

At least he still has a pot to piss into .....for the time being .......

Sod em’, they’ll be back one day but between now and then, I hope it’s a long, hard and depressing slog. When they do make it back, I hope it’s just as the world goes to pot and the nukes are launched.

 

[Stretch]

There was a moment after the 2nd goal and the camera cut to close up of Pederson, staring down at the ground and mumbling to himself under his breath.

For a brief moment, I felt for the bloke....... it quickly passed though.

Exactly.

 

[Matlock Blade]

I must confess I don't feel at all sorry for them.

May 2nd 1981 - did they feel sorry for us when we were the first Sheffield club to be relegated to the fourth division?

No.

Just remember that.

I got the feeling at 2-0 that one more goal would have completely broken them and opened the floodgates. Shame it didn't work out like that, but the way we eventually ended up doing it felt more Bladey somehow

 

[Maidenhead]

If this takeover falls through, which it could well do, they'll be lucky to start next season and I still won't feel sorry for them.

 

[Badger Blade]

I was asked by a Huddersfield fan at half time "is it not a bit of a hollow victory?"

Absolutely, fucking definitely, not.

 

[bruce]

I feel about as sorry for them as they would do for us.

Yes. Remember how sorry for us they were after Walsall 2nd May 1981. And during our recent 6 years in the third division. They were absolutely gushing with sympathy.

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Can't feel sorry for a team and fans that embarrass sheffield football. Horrible set of entitled deluded scum

 

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

When Chris Wilder feels sorry for you, you know you’ve hit absolute rock bottom. I feel sorry for them in a way, then I give myself a slap, tip some more RED wine and have a little chuckle to myself and thank my ancestors for making me a Blade.

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

I spent more time feeling sorry for us than them.

There's no way you can make a team on -7 points in February look decent but we gave it a damn fucking good go.

 

[CarlMcBlade]

…or me

 

[Cheeky Blade]

We’ve set them free from the spectre of relegation, so now hopefully they can now go on to play the rest of the season with a gay abandon and maybe even take a few points from those above us.

In the first half we didn’t really play well. We were 2-0 up because they were awful. If we’d turned it on like second half vs Boro or first half vs Leicester I think it would have been 3/4-0 at half time

This.. Nail on head.

Not sure what’s making you think that?, they had a 10 minute spell after the sending off, other than that offered nothing despite the 40 minute man advantage.

 

[LudlamBlade]

We'll all be having a party.....

 

[Geordie Blade]

I remember genuinely feeling sorry for them for a couple of minutes after Andy Lineghan headed the ball through Chris Woods’ hands in the last minute of extra time in the FA Cup reply. My mum said “would they feel sorry for you?” and then I got over it.

 

[shorehamview]

I don’t feel sorry for them. Fuck ‘em all and the manky disease ridden sow they rode in on.
