suspected team for preston game, might change, but highly unlikely. We are wondering why he's playing Howard...and from whats been seen "Frankie" Howard is taking the corners, but the tactics I hope to god will change.

With us and Preston, the home time usually comes out on top.

We've won there once in about 85 years.

Early team news suggests Blackwell considering going defensive. To keep a clean sheet would be a good result. I am going but Friday night is typical of modern game - interested in money rather that football and the fans

 

[Monty's_Girl]

Early team news......

Kevin Blackwell has 2 major injury concerns v Preston (Fri) but won't name names.
Kyle Walker pushing for start in absence of Gary Naysmith.



Wonder who the major injury concerns are?

Prays it's Howard!

 

[Monty's_Girl]

Howard and Quinn?

 

[Sensiblade]

Howard and Quinn?

Not Quinn no, he's become the whipping boy since (almost)everyone realised Monty isn't as bad as the thought.
He's been good/bad in fits and starts in the second half of the season, but he's been far from terrible.

I'm lost why interested in money?? Surely going there and getting a decent result (0-0 or better) and bringing it back to Bramall Lane is a good long game tactic.

 

[SotonBlade]

i'd be happy with coming away with a draw from Deepdale

I think the point he's trying to make is that the play-offs shouldn't exist... and the only reason they do is for money.

That and being on a friday night for television.

 

[Hartyblade]

He needs to play Cotterill and Halford, on either wing when they switch over wings it causes full-backs hell, it worked like a charm against birmingham and very well against other teams.

Other than that o'toole and monts in the middle, with Ward and Henderson Up front.

 

[rachyblade]

Yeah but surely the play offs make the whole season more interesting.

 

[Linz]

Yeah but surely the play offs make the whole season more interesting.

But we'd have been promoted by now without them if it was still 3 up 3 down

 

[DazBlade88]

Yeah but surely the play offs make the whole season more interesting.

And makes the football league more money...

 

[The One]

I agree with top 3 going up but if we had finished 4th then we wouldn't complain about the play offs

 

[salvo]

I will see the match on TV!! Come on Blades!!

[dj_uk_1234]

Have you sold out? There seems to be a hell of a lot of empty seats?

 

[Bladesman]

Decent performance.

Ashame we didnt win.

 

[dj_uk_1234]

Should've won.

Preston will need to up there performance Monday or it could be a thrashing

 

[salvo]

The result is positive, but we deserved the victory...

Beattie mustn't fail that goal... :nono::thumbdown:

 

[Sensiblade]

Great performance, Same again Monday please (but with better finishing)

I hope Ward & Relish are ok for Monday, doubt Ward will be though by the looks of him when he went off.

Like at Hillsborough. Every game.
