Some credit

[Patrick Suffaux]

I've been very critical of them lately and rightly so however.....that's two wins in difficult league fixtures albeit without playing particularly well and on top of the cup win.

Perhaps they're learning to grind results out. Well done to them tonight and we'll done to Billy.....proving why he should always be in the side. He gets goals.

Long way to go to convince this Blade but it's a start.

 

[Harry's Game]

We are keeping in contention. The players and manager are showing some balls, time the board did in the JTW. We are back in with a chance now if they do.

 

[Bladesway]

Two wins on the spin makes a big difference doesn't it. Suddenly talks of relegation are rightly laughed at.

 

[Pollingtonblade]

We haven't beaten any of the bottom 4 that's our problem.

With yet another solid display from George Long

 

[stringjunior]

Edgar and Beard back has made a huge difference it seems

 

[blade too long]

1 point off the play offs

and a dozen point gap to auto is now only 8 points away

made up 4 points in a week and people say its impossible

never was

 

[Bladebri]

I think Long has come on leaps and bounds

 

[Bladesman]

If we had not been robbed at Barnsley then I think we would be right back in the mix in 6th place.

Good to see teams above still dropping points.

 

[Alfreton14Blade]

Make us favourites & we collapse like a pathetic, weak collapsy thing.

Make us underdogs & we show our teeth & start snarling.
Adkins is proving he's got some bollox. (Needs to keep proving it mind - it's not gonna get any easier.)

weren't donny in bottom 4 when we beat them

burton dropped 2 points more today n we robbed coventry of 3 points last week

 

[Blade58]

Big game boxing day

Boy, would I settle for another undeserved, scrappy 3 points, together with a stonewall red card that isn't and a hotly disputed over the line goal that wasn't

Where's Santa?

 

[loyalblade95]

burton dropped 2 points more today n we robbed coventry of 3 points last week

glad that the top of the table is constantly changing means we've got a better chance of gettin up there as well

Well done to Adkins and the players this week, not pretty, but back to basics and getting results.

Adkins probably was a little niaeve to start with this season, but now appears to have realized the teams limitations. Just needs to keep grinding results out and hopefully we can make some positive changes in January.

The return of Bradford and Edgar must be making a difference, as well as the confidence of long. Also, looks like the dropping of Baxter and freeman have made us more resilient.

 

[breeny]

I said in November that the aim was to keep a few clean sheets. With Jonny and Edgar back, Long finding some form and a bit of luck, we've managed it.

K Wallace to start next though?

Baxter not on the bench, suggesting perhaps then that probably the rumours have substance and it's over for him at the club?

I hope so, it's what's needed, too many half arsed players in our squad and getting rid of Baxter and McNulty is a good start.

Important not to say anything you might regret. It's easy to see how expectations have dropped.

A nervy 1-0 win at Scunthorpe United and some are getting excited. We should be batting these teams off like flies.

Credit where it's due, another three points.

I don't think anybody's getting excited, would you care to give us a list of names?

In fact, the biggest overreaction I've seen is yours, giving credit where it's due, that's a bit of a Humpty bombshell

Talk about the kettle calling the pot black.

Calls to Praise and Grumble from people who listened said McEveley didn't play well and was a liability.

I went and that was not true today.

Ground another out, well done Blades and away support.

Ive been watching us since 1964 and cant remember swatting off Scunthorpe much at all

Ive seen us with much better sides lose at scunny

won the 4th div , lost at scunny
2 previous div 3 promotions
lost at scunny
probably our biggest bogey ground in our history

Nonsense. Look at the size of their club compared with ours.

I don't care about history we should be hammering them.

I'm basing it on the size of each club. We're big, they're small. We should be hammering them. There's no other conclusion to be made.

is that what west brom fans are saying tonight after losing to tiny bouremouth

 

[Barney]

is that what west brom fans are saying tonight after losing to tiny bouremouth

Yes, absolutely. They should be. Whether they do or not is up to the players and manager. As we've found out over the last 4 years.

That's coz Keith had it in for him.
