The Essex clan will be in wetherspoons , watford high st. before the game

 

[SteelCity Blade]

After the uplifting win against Forest we need to really make it count and get back to back wins. Lets go for it at Watford Blades! I would lineup as follows:-

Simonsen
Lowton, Collins, Lowry, Mattock
Yeates, Williamson, Montgomery, Quinn
Vokes, Bogdanovic

Long, Parrino, Ertl, Doyle, Riise, Evans, Cresswell​

Essentially, I would line up with mostly the players that finished the Forest game. Watford will play an open game at home and try to get at us and I think the best way of supressing that is to give them plenty to think about in their own half. Lets put them on the back foot. They might try and hit us on the break but thats a better scenario than letting them dictate.

If we set up like this at the weekend I think we stand a good chance of getting something but they're a decent side that shouldnt be taken lightly. Hopefully Riise and Ched might be fit enough for a place on the bench to give us an option or two if we need it.

COYRAWW!

Am not guin on Sa-di. Ar lass az me art in garden building dat fookin shed

be just like United to go and win the first SE away game I haven't been to (Ipswich, Palace and Pompey being miserable afternoons)

We played well against pompey and won last night. I think we'll win again on Sa-di. 2-1 Blades.

I'd go with the same team as SC, but maybe start Riise instead of Yeates.

Also not going. Normally nothing would stop me, but other stuff to do on Saturday is just a higher priority.

hope we do better than last year. And the last 3 SE away games. Similarly, United's poor form hasn't stopped me from having 3 great (booze fueled days out).

Can wewin this one? Certainly.

If Vokes can continue as he did. We've got competition for places with Riise and Yeates. Willo will hopefully come in for Doyle. Quinn is on fire. Adams also has his forst choice back 4 available. Watford are wank and are on the slippery slope. We should be looking to take 3 points here.

 

[essex blade]

initial allocation of 1000 tickets have been sold out, box office now selling another batch today (friday) . Pay on the day is also available , 2 quid extra.

 

[Ollessendro]

Fookin ell, our lass is ill. Reckon i'll be able to sneak off from shed buildin n get mi sen darn t Watford. Not sure wever t feel happy or ful o dred

 

[Wards]

Hendo plays!

 

[Bladeforlife]

Simonson
Nos, Collins, Lowry, Mattock
Williamson, Doyle, Monty, Quinn
Hendo!, Vokes

 

[Lt. J Dangle]

Simonson
Nos, Collins, Lowry, Mattock
Williamson, Doyle, Monty, Quinn
Hendo!, Vokes

Does that line-up look like the proverbial double decker bus to anyone?

 

[Bladeforlife]

1-0 down. Collins mistake, Simonson with a great save, fell to Graham with a tap in. FFS Hendo off!!!!!!

 

[Railway Blade]

Was an accident waiting to happen. An unfit Hendo, timing bad, trying to prove something against his old club. Bad decision to play him.

Williamson off too now, what a shambles.

Williamson off too now, what a shambles.

Can't describe it better. Any idea what they did?

They pulled on a red and white shirt

I was waiting for something like that.

 

[Guesty]

Suspected broken leg for Hodgson though. It's not all "poor old Sheffield United".

They said it was bad for him on skysports news but didn't say much else or I missed it if they did.

Just because its a broken leg doesn't mean it was a nasty, malicious challenge.

Very true. Be interesting to actually see it later on't TV.

 

[WhiteHawk]

It may well have been a booking but it sounds like the first one should never have been a booking.

 

[Guesty]

It's on the BBC feed that it's "suspected". Obviously I have no idea if it is or not.

I have very little sympathy for someone who gets a booking for a tackle which means he opponent goes off on a stretcher whether it was malicious or not.
