#FightForChampionship
Good luck!

 

[Bergen Blade]

Bradford seems to have a settled side now, also playing 4-4-2

Williams

Darby McArdle Burke Meredith

Marshall Liddle Knott Morris

Hanson Cole​

Quite robust in defence with steady eddies at full back. Parkinson has ditched their diamond now and brought in three wide players in Marshall, Morris and Anderson. Knott is a good ball player centrally and Liddle is a strong holding midfielder. Hanson is good in the air and in Cole Parkinson may have finally found a decent partner for him.

Tactically their set up looks fairly similar to what we're likely to play and it will be interesting to compare the two sides.

 

[Kenilworth]

What about Davies?
Steve

 

[boo radley]

Not excited at all and last year I went and remember the Torvil and Dean move.

 

[SteveBlade]

Does the pub across from the train station show Blades games? Think it's called the station or something?

 

[Bergen Blade]

What about Davies?
Steve

Likely to start on the bench.

 

[zablade]

We are going to need a bit of luck and the strike force to start firing again to get a result tomorrow, can't see conceding less than than two at the other end.

 

[sothall blade]

What about Davies?
Steve

he will be playing snooker !

 

[SUFC Handsworth]

My team for tomorrow, and I'm sure many won't like it, 4-4-1-1

Howard
Freeman-Edgar-Collins-McEveley
JCR-Basham-Reed-Adams
Baxter
Sharp

Assuming Adams is fit and Kennedy isn't.

Looks good to me. Necessary bolstering of midfield.

I'd have Wallace,K. in at left back though, but realistically that's not gonna happen.

Expecting it to be pretty attritional & ugly tomorrow tbh.

 

[Bladebri]

3-1 to the blades.

 

[Snowman]

Oh no. Another one with misplaced confidence with no evidential basis.

 

[Dkc]

A win tomorrow puts us 3 points off the top.

Come on Blades, let's get over the mini-crisis and put another run together.

 

[JohnDenver]

I'd have Wallace,K. in at left back though, but realistically that's not gonna happen.

If Chelsea can drop Terry for a young'un then we can drop our captain too. It's not as though McEverley has a string of honours after his name.

Frankly, if players aren't dropped after Tuesday they'll feel untouchable.

 

[Kenilworth]

I'd put McEveley up front with Sharp.
Since he makes 2-3 rickets in the penalty area every game that sneaky tactic could work in our favour

 

[SB_90]

Big game today I would because we can't afford a 3rd straight loss even if its a draw it should help feel stabilised

 

[Blade58]

Probably wrong thread but:

Blades: Howard, Freeman, Basham, Sharp, McNulty, Collins, Woolford, McEveley, Campbell-Ryce, Reed, Edgar.
Subs: Baxter, Scougall, Sammon, Alcock, Higdon, Long, McGahey.

Reed and Sparky start

Sammon and Jose drop to bench



edit: apologies as already posted in shoutbox

 

[shorehamstreet1990]

Well, that was a more depressing goal to concede than last weeks'.
