CONFIRMED Billy Sharp

[west_yorks_blade]

People write all kinds of stuff if they post regularly on forums.

Sometimes its remarkably prescient.
Sometimes its utter horse shit

Circumstances change, views change.The world moves one.

What I am basically saying is - who cares what someone once wrote on here? Its not a legal document, it doesn't affect peoples lives. Its just the ramblings of a group of people who like to shoot the shit about Sheffield United.

I did a post in 1958 saying that England would win the World Cup within ten years and everyone laughed at me. Told me the internet didn't exist and I was mental.

There was a kid called Pele around at that time and I said just what we need, black and pacey.....

 

[Smirth]

Is this still rumbling on FFS?

Everyone is very grateful he's been playing for us for the last 2 years and his goals have helped us to achieve our goal. Not one person has said otherwise and not one person doesn't appreciate what he has done.

If we're playing International Break Bingo, we've had threads about who we need to buy in the next transfer window, querying the merits of Billy Sharp - we're a post about McCabe away from a Full House!

How many called it right for Sharp, and Coutts ?

Minority of ????????????

Point scoring mate. Nothing more. Although one or two perhaps deserve to have their hypocrisy highlighted

Not when you're hell bent on being proven right about everything, and showing how wrong everyone else is. Narcissists don't shoot shit, they just override everyone else.

Bonus ball: Maggots or Magnet?

Too right mate.

I never understand the point scoring that goes on here sometimes. I once wrote somewhere on this site that Clarke and McNulty can fuck off. Now I'm sat here with one of them on my profile picture. Times change! Move on!

Note: In the event that I have an argument with someone and they see a different profile picture when they bring this post up to score points, I'm definitely referencing a picture of McNulty riding shirtless on a unicorn right now.

That got me thinking what a bloody good film Leon is. A quick google image to check the film poster and lo and behold, I get:

This is Valery Leon,English actress and sometime Bond girl.

Okay, so it's not yet an official 'large breasts thread', but this bit of serendipity gives me hope.

If we're turning this into a large breasts thread then maybe I should put up that topless picture of McNulty after all...

4 years today since the legend that is Billy Sharp came home.

Some pearlers in this thread.

 

[Antonb]

yep but we dont need a confirmed thread up,

 

[JohnDenver]

I think we would be better with COG.

Sharps career is on the decline a bit.

Sorry old chap but have to bump this.

You could bump half the thread !

Sorry old chap but have to bump this.

Came here to bump this too

 

[Harry's Game]

Looking back I thought he was past it when he was linked, thankfully Nigel Adkins did his one good thing in his time here and persuaded Billy to come back.

What a decision that was.

 

[JohnDenver]

You could bump half the thread !

Yeah I’m looking for what my wisdom was too...

 

[Bladesman]

Sorry old chap but have to bump this.

Bad call on signing COG.

His career was on a bit of a decline at the time though. He was jumping from club to club on loan in the championship.

 

[Good Pinch Of Snuff]

Sharp was dreadful for us even when he was good, imagine how dreadful he'll be now he's dreadful!

Really dreadful

 

[DronnieBlade]

Billy Sharp wouldn't have scored 50 goals for us if we had played him every game since we signed him second time around. Sorry but it had nothing to do with managers or styles of play, he just crumbled under the pressure of playing for the team he loved.

Priceless

UTB

 

[Guesty]

Really dreadful

That post was partly tongue-in-cheek, but I admit I had no idea he'd anything like this good.

 

[DronnieBlade]

Is this a proven goalscorer?

Proof, if it was ever needed, that certain eyeballs are that much better than others !!

[DronnieBlade]

This thread is timeless, and one of my faves of all time.

The pearls of wisdom from those that profess to know a bit is as hilarious as it is a stinging indictment .

[JackSUFC]

Love a bump like this.

Sharp/hindsight has made a lot of people look very silly here.

 

[JohnDenver]

Check out what this genius said. Nostra-fecking-damus!

Global warming is speeding him up year on year. Just you wait.

 

[DronnieBlade]

Pinch.

Are you allowing your obvious dislike of resigning previous players to cloud your judgement at all ?

Can you suggest a player with a CV as impressive as B S. who is
Available
Cheap
Wants to come here

??

Given your stated loathing of all things "hoof" why the "need" for a target man (albeit a mobile one) ?

You are overlooking the fact that Sharp has been very good at leading the line WHEN THE BALL IS PLAYED IN TO FEET as he is quite strong for a little un. Accepted that balls played over the top to run on to would be pointless, but that is what the wingers and Done are there for.

The best and most successful football we have played in recent times is when that giant of a man who gives Usain a run for his money was played as a lone striker. Yes none other than Jose Baxter !!!

The blueprint that is required is, contrary to popular belief in these parts, NOT a "target" man at all. All that this has EVER done as long as I can remember is to promote and encourage hopefull and at times aimless balls to a lone man who, 95% of the times loses possession or never gains it in the first place and the ball ends up coming straight back at us. Hopelessly inept tactics that should by now have gone well away.

I swear some of our fans would have us going back to the "good" old days of hoofing from the kick off in to touch as far down the pitch for a throw in as was possible, Perception being we have "gained" yardage.

FFS that's American football not the football we know and love.

Possession is 9/10 ths of the law. Period.

IMHO

Dem eyeballs

Happy Tufty agreed .

Didn’t turn out too bad .

[SteveBlade]

Good signing.

 

[IOM Blade]

I would take McNulty over Sharp everyday of the week. He was tremendous on Sunday.

I said in the summer that he's not the sort of player we need. We need a goalscorer, yes, but like many I think that McNulty can get us the goals and is real finisher. As IOM Blade said, McNulty was tremendous on Sunday and also v Southampton. But he seems to have a less physical game against the premiership sides.

What we do need is a big physical striker, O'Grady showed briefly what Clough wanted from Higdon. So I'd head straight to Brighton with an offer for O'Grady and get him back to the lane on a permanent deal.

If we've still got cash left, I'd sign Doyle from Chesterfield rather than gamble on Sharp's form and fitness

Oh and all that's after signing Brayford

Well don't we look like a couple of twats.
