[Edgar Allan Poo]

First to boo Sander.

 

[Jimmy Fleck]

Can honestly see this being a 4/5-0 Burnley. They were a bit unlucky against West Ham and they’ll see how shit we were against Bmouth and fancy themselves.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Chris Kavanagh does have it in him to be a twat.

 

[jono_t2000]

I'm going for a 3-1 or possibly 4-1 loss depending on if Burnley have their shooting boots on.

We wont be able to handle their high press and flooding forward in numbers.

Berge to score 1 and also get 1 assist.

 

[Thrice]

Yeah, I have a bad feeling about this one. Burnley and Kompany are out of their depth against teams that have better individual quality than them. But against teams that are on their level or below they will prevail.
Won't get them enough points to stay up though unless Kompany starts realizing that he's not managing a top 6 team.

 

[Revolution]

After last week's debacle I do not want to see Bogle, Thomas and Souza anywhere near the starting XI. They were all wretched.

I would say the same re Norwood but he will play, because reasons.

Burnley are also a poor side. But I think it is fair to say that if we played like we did last week, we will lose.

 

[1973Blade]

Our first away game of the season north of Sheffield.

 

[dn5 shaun]

2 0 blades, one in each half McB 1st, og 2nd. Its going to be fascinating to see who finishes top scorer McB or og

 

[GKhantRebel]

We're fooked!
(I'm being optimistic here)

 

[Argentinemanager]

Not looking forwards to this game, the worst two teams in the league and im worried if we play like last week we will get spanked, really hope no souza, thomas, at this moment in time id take fleck in for souza and lowe for thomas and i think neither are of the required standard but an improvement. Please show some desire ,effort and aggression then you never know

 

[Bobby b]

Reading Roy's view from a lot of their fans were saying this game is a must win for them, to be honest I'm so resigned that we aren't going to have another must win game for the rest of the season, but this is a must perform game as will the majority of games we will have to give us any chance next season, for them to think it's a must win then they obviously think there's a chance of staying up, bless em, life's so much easier when you realise shits gonna happen

 

[1066blade]

Quelle surprise. The top two teams in last years Championship are the worst two in the Prem. The chasm in class just gets wider.

 

[Bladezz]

2-0 to the Blades.

Hecky keeps his job. All the fans do another 180 and be Hecky in

 

[Shawy24]

[10-0 win]

Just win it and 3 points,don.t care how

 

[10-0 win]

Must admit Burnley allthough loosing looks better than us

 

[jono_t2000]

Must admit Burnley allthough loosing looks better than us

Of course they do, they go out with the intent of winning the game from the 1st minute.

 

[straight_outta_compton]

Don't mind what formation we play. Don't mind who plays, or where.

But it's imperative that we have much improved energy & urgency. We've been too passive in many game, in an attempt to kill the pace of the game and keep it tight at the back.

Keep your heads: no silly cards for reckless behaviour, or petulantly pulling opponents back in meaningless situations, or disrespectful behaviour to match officials.

Wear the blades shirt with pride and give 100% to show you are premier quality players with ability.

On our day, at max intensity, we've matched some decent teams in this league. Let's keep that focus and play our hearts out!!!

UP THE BLADES!

 

[biggiesablade]

Do we have to play ffs

 

[Kizmet]

if norwood or souza start its a media blackout for me till 5 pm

Wasn’t he in Sigue Sigue Sputnik?

 

[Mattblade68]

Imagine if, and nothing is ever impossible, everything clicks and we won 3-0, posts will be back to ' let's build on this ' ' 1 point from safety ' ' we have a chance despite everything '. Big if , but it's a funny old game..

 

[sheff_blade90]

on my way to burnley, i must be absoulte mad espically on coldest weekend of the year with the artic winds & the shite we saw last week always grateful to hecky but im amazed he's still in charge. it seemed end of an era. if Bournemouth were more clinical maybe things change. because that shouldve been alot more than 3

but i say it alot, depends on the team. because if last years Utd that played Burnley turn up. we could win or get at least a result. but if its the team from 6 of the last 7 1st halfs & last saturday, this could get embarrassing. it could Bournemouth dejavu

 

[1066blade]

We'll lose, go bottom - and stay there till end of season on single digit points.

You are correct in your assumption that you are mad !! top marks for going though, let's hope we can get a win for you and all the travellers to Burnley, travel safe.

 

[Flumps]

After seeing the lack of spirit and energy I just can't help but feel Burnley will want it more and ultimately get it.

If Hecky can get a fucking rise out of these players then we could walk away with 3 points. It is cold though so who knows.

 

[Greenwich Blade]

National Express for me today. My alarm went off at 03.30 this morning. Yesterday, I felt so crap, I put my chances of attending today at 10%, but after an early night, I feel fine today, so here I am, on a bus to Burnley from Manchester.

By the way, I already know I'm crackers, so there is no need to tell me.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

If there is only one change to last week's starting 11, i.e. McB on for someone, we have a glimmer of a chance. Only he and Balders show 100% passion, the rest, not so much. Actually about 20% passion average between the other 9. But, if they ALL show 100% passion, press, harass etc and , act like they are Premier League standard team.......might sneak a win. However, I'm going to keep breathing...

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Anyone who shows up to follow the Blades today....that is 100% passion. Kudos to you all.
