Blades v Notts County

[PeterNdlovu081]

I think Big Nige will treat this one like a league match and go out all guns blazing.

Blades 3-0 Notts County

 

[FTPE]

Well, it sounds like Long is getting a start, so that's your "0" out of the window

 

[gavtheblade]

I think we should play the u21's.
Seriously.

 

[Russ]

I think we should play the u21's.
Seriously.

Not sure they'd fancy two matches in one day.

 

[Pedro Verde]

Is the family stand open for this game ?

 

[biggey blade]

I disagree gavtheblade I would want to see the first team starting so they can score some goals hopefully and build a bit of confidence back up, but I would have matty done starting think it would help him return to full fitness and should be able to run circles around them.

Done, Che and Long sound like they are starting.
Wallace And Brayford in the under 21s.
I'd prefer Wallace in the girls under 16s personally... And still wrapped in bubble wrap.

I hope he doesn't treat it like a league game otherwise we're likely to be 2-0 down by half time.

 

[Bergen Blade]

In the last round we made ten changes and Adkins has said it will be the same tomorrow. The one player that kept his place for the Hartlepool game was Basham, and he's suspended. I reckon Coutts and Baxter will be rested, which means we may be quite light weight in midfield. Reed and Scougall doesn't seem ideal as a partnership, although they both need a game.

A guess:

Long
Alcock McGahey McEveley McFadzean
JCR Reed Scougall Woolford
Done Adams
​

Any suggestions of how to make that central midfield stronger assuming Baxter and Coutts won't play?

 

[boo radley]

From the feeling on here, very low crowd.

You think we going to score a few then Biggey ?. We could be playing Hallam and still struggle to get 4 or 5.

 

[Small Mendonca]

Decided to go begrudgingly but only on the fact that it MIGHT be better than evening of having to watch Eastenders and Don't Tell the Bride

Take out Scougal and add the tea-lady, take out McEveley and add one of the ticket office girls, take out McFadzean and add one of the programme sellers, take out Woolford and add a parking cone .....
Sorted !!
UTB & FTP

 

[judge]

Omg like the who hell cares !

 

[Wards]

Not going and don't give a fuck about it tbh. If the players can't be arsed to turn up on a match day then I'm sure as hell not forking out ten quid for a glorified reserve match.

After all the shit this club's gone through you want Wallace wandering around an u-16 girls' dressing room wrapped in bubble wrap?

 

[Barney]

I care about as little as is possible about this game.

Just irritates me whenever I see a football league trophy game on the fixture list.

 

[mosbolad]

It seems that no-one (well not many) seem to give a hoot about the JPT and of course the league is more important.

However, along with about 500 other Blades I went to Hartlepool and had a thoroughly enjoyable evening. So there!

What if they lose?

Tea lady did her hamstring pushing the trolley on Friday I'm afraid. Sheffield Council wouldn't loan us the traffic cone either - "we tried, but....".

Long
Alcock McGahey McEveley K.Wallace
Reed Dimaio Woolford
Done McNulty Adams

Quadruple like button please !

 

[Bergen Blade]

Long
Alcock McGahey McEveley K.Wallace
Reed Dimaio Woolford
Done McNulty Adams

I also think it's easier to make the balance look better if we switch to that formation.

 

[HighfieldBlade]

Just wait til we make it to the last 8 and we can smell Wembley again.
I think a lot more fans will get interested, right?

 

[Ricky]

Long
Alcock McGahey McEveley Wallace
Woolford Dimaio Reed Adams
McNulty Done

Weak central midfield but I don't care if we get knocked out and would rather see McNulty and Done get playing time.

Yeh, part time glory grabers at home with a pizza and a few Cobras

I don't think anyone would hold it against United if we put on an absolutely pathetic display in the first JPT game of every season and got knocked out. Maybe we'll become masters at this over the next five years or so.

Working.

Excused, I've signed you slip

We've been putting on far to many 'absolutely pathetic displays' of late. Another won't help. I expect us to come out in a storm of attack and manly tackling tonight.
