Match Thread Brentford v The Mighty Blades

[Lawrence]

So we try to defend... then go to 2-2, then start attacking... them 3-2, now hanging on again. its what we do!?

 

[breeny]

Jesus

 

[Davalon]

No good getting bodies back if we don't get close.

Just statues to pass around.

 

[Davalon]

Fucking get in

 

[Topplayersleave]

Another nice, calm, steady no fuss performance

 

[bromtom]

Thank fuck for that.

 

[Iceybabey]

We got the win wahoo.

Subjects of negativity to be more thoroughly discussed in due course.

 

[Scooter_mcgavin]

Didn’t bring him on against Wednesday when we needed a goal ? He looked good against Blackburn when came on.
Judge him on tonight

MOTM.

:-D

 

[Scooter_mcgavin]

That hack on Washington when he was clean through was a blatant red, he was 10 yards off the ball and hacked him down. We were 2 on 1 too.

Heart rate's just going back down to normal

Can't be doing with this tension every fkin game

Need to actually hammer a few sides so I can relax a bit

 

[Blade56]

Possession quoted as 66/34 to Brentford. Didnt sound like that not radio

 

[FriethBlade]

Sets up Saturday match nicely and you.have to assume Duffy starts after tonight's rest. I guess he can't manage 3 games in 8 days.

Getting to the point where I dare not risk a fart during the game

You'll never get an easy ride with United
I was shitting myself when Villa pulled it back to 4-1

 

[Minty]

We'll be 3-0 down after 55 minutes so what's the point?

Well??

Suppose the next time you appear we'll have lost or drawn again. Feed the troll.......

Yes but do you change a winning side ??

 

[FriethBlade]

Wavy...I think you do for Duffy. He's our main man. Lundstram out Duffy in and Clarke and Sharp up front?

 

[LJBlade]

When was the last time Wilder made a positive effect substitution ?

When he put Leon on tonight? Possibly?

Edit: Just noticed you said the same thing.

 

[Blade56]

Is Maupey worth a punt?

 

[Broomhall Blade]

When he put Leon on tonight? Possibly?

There's a first time for everything

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

This threads a great read.

More ups and downs than Jordan on a Friday night.

8/10 would recommend.

 

[LJBlade]

Is Maupey worth a punt?

He might be, for the Premiership teams who are eyeing him up

 

[Blend-it-like-Harris]

Old "Copper-Nickers" might just sleep tonight and the cat might avoid a kicking - Happy Times again.

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

I swear they’ll be the death of me, just once in a while can we do it the easy way?

 

[bromtom]

We looked awful when we sat back, and dangerous when we attacked, swap sitting back for playing the ball around our very good on the ball ball playing defenders and our midfield and we'll have a far easier time.

I was practically begging us to get it down, pass to Deano, to JOC to Stevens, to Norwood in space, and back to Bash, across to Egan, to Stevens again etc, rather than hoof it up, get two touches max and then have them swarming all over us, especially when Couttsy came on. No excuses for not trying for some possession when the Rolls and the Bentley are both on the pitch.

A stressful evening haha

 

[Guesty]

Fantastic result that. Made up for Clarke as well.

How did Washington play, will he be pushing for more starts?

 

[tomtheblade]

Reading back on the start of this thread, it's amazing how confident many posters are in their opinions, given how the game turned out and more generally speaking, Wilder's achievements as our manager so far.

I mean, by all means share your predictions if you think we're going to lose or whatever, but the level of confidence in the scorn fostered upon certain players is bewildering. Perhaps Tufty actually does know what he's doing after all?

 

[Booker4]

Is Maupey worth a punt?

With a spare £20 million we'll have a chance!

More likely to be a loan from the PL.

 

[Minty]

That’s putting it mildly I’m fucking fuming especially Washington.

Well what the fuck do we know eh??

 

[Sean Thornton]

When he put Leon on tonight? Possibly?

Edit: Just noticed you said the same thing.

Ah the McCabe Hypothesis.

Wilder useless when substitutions don't work, luck when they do?
