sounds good support from travelling blades as per UTB

Stirring rendition of Super Ched

Very good rendition of "Red Flag" just now!

 

[Thrice]

Cooper wearing Yellow is a bit weird! I suppose it's just about different enough from our away yellow

Not sure how that got sanctioned by the match officials. He almost looks like an outfield player.

 

[Lendegoeystash]

Kit man’s job surely.

 

[Davalon]

Can't wait for a few years time when we have lads called Messi Thompson and Cristiano-Ronaldo Jones coming through...

Kylian Blenkinsop and Yamal Boothroyd.

On a serious note, one of my work colleagues is a Cov fan and when his son was born in July, he named him after their whole team.

Utterly ridiculous and I cant believe his other half agreed to it.

Poor kid will be hammered at school being called Relegation Fodder Turner.

Good to see that joke getting aired again. It’s been a long time old friend…

 

[Shawy24]

No plan. No shape no hope

As a registrar a few years ago my wife registered a girl with all eleven names of the United team. First name was Jagielka.

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

Why are we so incapable of shooting? Keeper was way out of position and Cannon tries to cut back to Campbell

 

[Harry's Game]

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

1 shot on target vs the mighty Fleetwood

 

[Esteban Cambiasso]

We have a lot of players who look a stone overweight and can't seem to get about the pitch ... Campbell is the worst culprit but there are a few that have found the fridge over the summer

 

[Addison]

Turgid walking football. Tactic carried over from Saturday appears to be try to walk the ball into the net instead of shooting. No pace two immobile central midfielders. Got penalty shoot out written all over it.

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

Rothwell, Doherty and Campbell all look to have found their level

 

[Sean Thornton]

Rothwell, Doherty and Campbell all look to have found their level

Let’s see who makes 60 minutes. Some running about there from two of them. Hear it made BBD feint!

 

[LiamBG]

Classic helping of Wilderball.

 

[Iceybabey]

Arblaster and Donovan look a level above everyone else on the pitch- Donovan is holding his own against someone who's tactic is to rough him up. Blaster looking more like his old silky self.
Rothwell and Reda non-existent. We have no midfield whatsoever. Neither of them can pick the ball up and break the lines- stiff as owt.
Cannon may aswell be up front on his own because Campbell is also non-existent. Cannon's at least putting himself about and fighting for things.
And someone tell RND that his team mates are wearing green ffs!

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Tommy long throw

 

[Blood Red]

I hope Sam is back for Saturday, because RND is absolutely atrocious.

 

[ChefYouKnighted1889]

Shite we'll probably concede in the last minute

 

[Ukkonen]

I thought RND had had a decent game so far

He couldn’t pass a fart without it being wet, never mind a ball

 

[IdLiketoRogerMoore]

Appreciate it's covered on other threads but choosing Rothwell and Riedeweld over Soumare looks worse and worse every time they play....

 

[B.Lade]

Struggling to play out from the back against Fleetwood

 

[ATL Recs]

We are poor so slow can’t pass no pace technically loose

We couldn’t afford Soumare anyway

 

[Davalon]

My feed keeps going slow but a few of the players seem to be moving at their usual pace still

 

[MosboroughBlade]

I wondered how much impact knilly had on the team. Without him, I think it's clear, we aren't a well coached team. Or should I say less well coached.

 

[nottingham blades]

Sad and embarrassing

Arblaster keeps falling over the ball and now none existent second half
