Blades fighting.

[Davalon]

Reported as a sell out, it was nowhere near at our end and we never will sell out wembley, we are getting sick and tired of the fuck ups when we get there plus its an absolute nightmare getting in and out of the fucking slum area around it. I will never go there again or any major event in London

Also, anyone who cared to look properly at their end during the relevant points, would have seen plenty of empty seats too. Just more single numbers dotted about all over rather than sections (apart from that bit on the top tier).

There was a drunken arsehole about 65 before the game, staggering down to Wembley, swaying and banging in to people, The knob stood on the back of my foot and pulled my shoe off then nearly fell over me. Fancy spending the best part of £200 to go to a big game like that and being paralytic an hour before kick off.

 

[Davalon]

Plenty of nobs acting up yesterday.

Some old bully boys up to old tricks, usual coked up brigade, some who should have a 4 drink limit because they take pissed to a whole new level, and plenty of those who think rules don't apply to them.

 

[FTPE]

Because we could not sell our tickets, sold on.
Our fans today were very much 2nd best in sales, support and atmosphere, it's like we expected to lose.

We couldn't sell our tickets because that's the 10th f'king time we've done that.
And their fans didn't make a noise until our 2nd was ruled out. They went in high after their last min winner against Cov, but sounded completely flat the entire first half.

The Sunderland fans were exceptional. They had unwavering excitement and belief in their boys and backed them with passionate and vocal support. Before kick-off all of their fans were sat in their seats and their giant black cat flag looked brilliant, whereas it was noticeable how many Blades seats were empty, and that’s not just when the game began.

We didn’t sell out and many ‘sold out’ in terms of their backing of the players. Would it have made a difference if we had rallied round them more, especially when Sunderland equalised? Maybe not, but there’s lots to begrudgingly admire about their support and things for us to aspire to.

Didn't see sunderland rally around their players until they equalised.

Stretch Wearing a blue onesie ?

Huge if true!

5XL?

 

[Greenwich Blade]

Didn't see sunderland rally around their players until they equalised.

And as soon as our second went in, there was an exodus in the thousands to the concourse. They came back in when it was disallowed, so yes, great fans. Anyway, they'll get dicked every week next season - let's see how much they enjoy that.

 

[Dnblade]

No problems with their fans,apart from one dickhead winding up Blades as we were walking out,but we all have the odd dickhead.

 

[Lightsoot]

Didn't see sunderland rally around their players until they equalised.

Yes, I think that’s valid, although they found their voices when Burrows’ goal was chalked off. But overall, the manner of their support outshone ours for a variety of reasons.

 

[Nedski]

Agree on the Sunderland fans, to the red and white flags, black cats tifo and the haway the lads, our “attempt” with the scarves was embarrassing in comparison. Always the same with United everything seems to be tinpot and on a budget. Then again I don’t blame our supporters not going to Wembley after years on years of heartbreak

I actually thought the scarves being waved looked quite impressive. I would liked to have seen us do it more than twice though.

 

[Whiston Blade]

Chill mate that’s bollocks and you know it.

It is bollocks but

I found the scarf waving quite impressive too.

 

[prescotblade]

It gave my dicky shoulder a good work out, can feel it today. So there was a positive from yesterday.
Can I suggest if we make play offs next season, that we purposely lose the semi finals, to avoid another trip to Wembley. In saying that if we get to Wembley will be there.
It’s like the Eurovision were never going to win but go for the heartbreak. Either that or all those who go are given an appointment with a councillor, curtesy of the club

Any city councillor coming near me would not be met with any courtesy. But I know what you mean.

I reckon if we fielded a team with a spine of Brotherhood of Man and Bucks Fizz, we'd finally win.

I wonder if ever get to another play off final how many tickets we will sell - expect a half (quarter ground) empty following from blades next time - good forbid

 

[ShropsBlade]

Sunderland fans just seemed a lot happier to be down there than ours .Noticed them all leaving Baker Street early to get up to the ground whilst our lot stayed in the pub.This was the same at the ground where they took their seats when majority of our following was still in the concourse.I guess that’s the result of us throwing away top two and our previous in play offs.

 

[Sean Thornton]

Less disappointed with the result than l am with our sharp decline into Wembley Attendance FC.

 

[The Crab]

Culture carriers?
Christ, some of ours are absolute throbbers

The only culture some of our knuckleheads carry is one that’d need strong antibiotics to get rid of

Makes no sense does it?

Imagine not going to the one we win after being there for all the defeats

 

[54yrblade]

Our support has been below average all season and not a patch on the Warnock triple assault season and our rise to the PL last time. You only get that once in a managers career.

Sunderlands support will be a much better addition to the PL than we could have been

After yesterday, the doubts, concerns, what if's and maybes will mean the same again

And no amount of badge thumping will change the fact that our 'leader' avoided being a visible part of our failure on the final whistle

 

[Large Mendonca]

It very nearly kicked off in block 121 just into the game, with the old “siddarrrn” brigade. Blades holding each other back but settled down eventually after the stewards got involved.

 

[Hobgoblin]

Was a Sunderland fan up in 507. He got removed by stewards early on but the thing that left a bad taste wasn't so much him being there as the coked up cunt near me, surrounded by kids and families, screaming the place down about how he was going to kill him. Proper knobhead who should have been ejected too imo

I know a lot clubs have nob head fans but I only see ours oh and Sheffield Wednesday nob heads when we play them. Do you think it’s a Sheffield thing, middle aged men who are old enough to know better and kids who look up to them in CP AND STONEY

 

[Hobgoblin]

Nearly got me eye taken out by the lad in front

 

[Lane Ender]

Mate, we are at the stage where all I have to do is look at her, and she kicks off about something. She is 13.

My daughters still kick off with me ones 42 the other 38

I don't understand how many see them as being the better fans yesterday. Didn't fuckall most of the game.until they got a goal out of blue and a bit of a.cheer for var.

Fancy being 65 and behaving like that full stop.

In defence of 65 year olds generally some of us aren't that bad!
