[Highbury_Blade]

3-0 to the blades. Stephen Jordan hat-trick

 

[SteelCity Blade]

3-0 to the blades. Stephen Jordan hat-trick

Now that would be something! I can see the headline - "Blades romp to 3-0 win as injured full back scores hat trick"

My lineup would be:-

Simonsen
Lowton, Bartley, Nosworthy, Taylor
Yeates, Britton, Montgomery, Quinn
Reid
Evans

Wright, Calve, Kozluk, Batth, Ertl, Ward, Slew​

Kind of picks itself really. I would imagine the actual side will be pretty close to that, if not exact.

Prediction: 1-1

 

[SotonBlade]

Evans and Reid to run riot....3-0 Blades

 

[Fiery Blade]

Evans and Reid to run riot....3-0 Blades

Have I woke up in Cloud Cuckoo Land ?
Unfortunately we'll come second
0-2 to the Dingles is about best I can hope for!!!

Just like to be optimistic Fiery. If we lose, we lose. I'll still look forward to my Curry on Sat night.

As the fan's sang at Bristol "..we're not going down, we're not going up.."

Just try and enjoy the ride, it'll be like this for a good couple of seasons!

I hate that chant. Can somebody tell me why we're not going down? It's a very realistic possibility, whether we like it or not.

2-0 Barnsley for me too unfortunately, hopefully I'm wrong

2 pts off bottom 3 with a game in hand, 10 pts off play offs, we're currently not going anywhere. Anything is possible

I'll be there at the dingle arena

 

[BornOnShorehamStreet]

I can see them scoring a hatful, maybe 4 or 5 actually

Hope I'm wrong!

 

[frechyblade]

I've got us down for a draw.

I'm looking forward to it, first away match of season. 8 of us going, a few beers in town then on the train. COYRAWW's

Aye, aye Fiery I'm with you on this one. I'd be delighted with a point. However I expect us to be outfought, outplayed and outscored. This has another Doncaster written all over it.

With you on that Daz. It's not the worst chant we sing though. (Like Fiery pointed out a few weeks ago after the Milwall game) who the fuck was singing 'we shit, but we are 1 nil up'. Fucking terrible. Can you imagine being a player and hearing your fans sing that. Milwall was a grest day out, but when a bunch of grown men start singing '....., giz a wave' it gets embarrassing. Never understood that.

All in all I am not looking forward to Sat-di. My parents live in Dingle-land now and they have loads of Barnsley mates who I wind the fuck out of. We've got the better of them for quite a few seasons now, but I think tomorrow we'll come unstuck. I'm expecting a barrabge of texts at 4:50

 

[Elsecar_Blade]

I'll tell you what; a noisy backing from the Blades fans would do the team an awful lot of good tomorrow. It'll be the odd goal in three either way.
