No recognised striker available for them.
Gudjohnson is out,so just take care of Afolayan and Morashita and find a couple of goals.

Spot on !

 

[kevblade59]

Got to ease Doherty in more now and more minutes can’t continue with choudhury at right back any longer

 

[ATL Recs]

They played twice as many passes, twice as many shots on goal, twice as much possession. Proper smash and grab.

Always feels good to win a game, but winning in this fashion really isn't sustainable.

Not twice as many at one point it was 5 times as many
Yep mugged someone again Cooper n Peck ( second half Peck) mom
But our ball retention or lack of is a worry expect a few spankings to come

Hamza is not a RB

Happy with the win, but Sky, once again, can fuck off. Before I get grief for being with them, I'm tied in until August next year (my mistake) but the "Sky sports plus" is utter shite. The video quality would make a 2010 nokia look primitive, and it buffers so much that flash score told me we'd score fully 4 minutes before I saw the goal on screen.

Watched the SS+ feed on the stick, was perfect on my 55" telly. Hardly buffered, and was never more than 1 minute behind the live.
That's not a great advert for proper Sky is it?

 

[Blade In Flame]

Enough said, not a piggy either my dad was an avid Sheffield United supporter and he died of leukaemia. Bet you wouldn’t act that hard face to face with me. How can you make a judgement on someone so quickly? From
A few statements ?

Coming on here and saying those things is the equivalent of sticking your dick in a wasp's nest. Fair play though, I like your chutzpah.

 

[Snowflake]

I’m afraid this club is going down hill.. so sad to see when we were on the cusp of greatness. Like everything in life the rich and wealthy make the wrong decisions and take a fucking huge dump on our club. Selling our best players, making excuses for the wrong decisions. I am TIRED of these cunts and I may just retreat as a Sheffield United fan. I’m fucking done. Over to you batards

Two points off automatics.

 

[kevblade59]

Hamza is not a RB

I agree that’s why I made the original statement

 

[The Fox]

All I wanted this season is a team that worked their bollox off for every point snd thats what we got .

We know some players are defficiant in some positions or quality but not in spirit or determination.

Well done lads

UTB

I had a good feeling about tonight after my trip to Asda earlier.

It was the same commentator as the Bolton game. He hates us. Must be a pig is all I can say.

Buying toilet rolls always cheers me up as well for some reason.

4 quid for a toilet roll

He was when he kicked that fucker off the line

I'd check you're Internet connection or WiFi settings if I were you. I watched it on my 100" 4k TV and the picture was quite acceptable and no buffering at all on my Sky Puk.

4 quid for a toilet roll

Can't put a price on a good wipe

 

[Rufus T. Firefly]

At least the bottom won't fall out of the toilet roll market. If the Prince had charged that much for his rolls, he would have been well flushed in money to run us.

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Seems ages since we last won at Blackburn away so great to see the battling Blades get their mojo back. Two well taken goals too.

Watched on fire stick was also sky + picture was really sharp

We must not have been training either! Big 3 points but team selection / performance needs to improve majorly.

Just watched Mowbray’s post match interview and he said that they hadn’t trained much because of injuries and he was having to show his players what he wanted from them away from the training pitch, which sounds strange.

He didn’t complain about the result, he complained about their poor defending for both goals, saying they should have cleared both attacks and didn’t and he’s right, “the header should clear the half way line” (Atcheson for Cannon’s goal), they were very soft, we exploited that.

I left it too late to get a ticket in the away end, so sat in the main stand. The bloke behind me was bemoaning what he saw as Blackburn’s slow, sideways passing and ponderous attacks, where we broke much more quickly. That’s not what I saw, but maybe we’re all capable of being a bit one eyed.

For £4's worth of toilet rolls, I'd expect enough to wrap around the cesspit that is Hillsborough and flush the rancid pile away, for good.
