Confess your unpopular opinions regarding SUFC

[Sean Thornton]

I sometimes think there's something rather sinister about posters who go back and look for an old post from someone to try and prove a point. I think I must have been very annoyed or slightly pissed when I posted that. I'm delighted to be wrong about Henderson, Egan and especially W*dnesday!

Maybe I should go back and get that post from a few weeks ago when just about everyone on here was saying the auto's had gone?

Maybe not. We all get it wrong sometimes. And few people go back searching for a post from someone when they get it right.

Sinister? Bit dramatic CB.

The search option provides much of the fun on here

Didn't realise you'd made a point. Still wanting to know if shagging in a shower is shit mattbianco1

“Sometimes” not always.

There are stalkers about. You can’t be too careful!

 

[FMBlade1]

Chris Basham is overrated by many of our fans. All because he runs around a lot, has flappy arms and legs and shows enthusiasm doesn't mean is he a good player at Championship level.

This aged well

 

[United Aren't Back.]

What about “Bookes....Brookes will look like he’s lost the ball but then he’ll somehow manage to keep hold of lt....again”.

What a goal v Chelsea on Wednesday night.
Made a fool of David Luiz.

 

[United Aren't Back.]

United let Prem quality players such as Britton and Calvert Lewin, and Della's, go for virtually nowt.

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

Everyone has at least one I reckon which goes against the tide, not looking for a debate about the issues themselves but interested what people come up with.

I'll start:

I think Kevin Blackwell was an excellent manager for us

That'll take some beating!

The academy bleeds us dry and gives us no players, they are just sold.

Sold for money? How’s it bleed the club dry, then?

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

I think our fans would moan if we won the Champions League by scoring 10 goals against Barcelona

Thats cus 90% of us wouldnt get a ticket as the ground would be full of corporate whores.

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

To be honest, I think many on here thought Weir was a good appointment.

Wier was a reight coup and Adkins was a stroke of genius.

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

We've had our centre-halves overlapping our wing-backs for almost two seasons. What more do you want?!

Goalie up for every corner? 2-3-5 formation?

I'd keep three strikers up the field on their corners to occupy four defenders.

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

Sold for money? How’s it bleed the club dry, then?

Recon every £ a sale raises costs us a £ to get the player to the point where we can sell them.

Every player we can sell needs two teams of kids around them that can't be sold just to make up a practice game +all the coaches involved in bringing them on.

All that fucking about just so they can play for someone else.

That’s football though isn’t it? Dozens of teams have done the same so players can play for United today.

I guess there’s a reason it’s an unpopular opinion.

Spend it on the first team.

The cost of running the academy is less than the value of academy player sales: it makes money.

Whether that's the best use of the academy is up for debate, but the issue of the academy "costing" us isn't.

 

[JimW1889]

I liked the 15/16 home kit

 

[Jon P]

Hanson would have headed that ball down just as good as Madine

 

[8lade]

Jamal Blackman is a run-of-the-mill goalkeeper.
And FMBlade1 have a 'like' for easily the best thread this summer.

This comment could probably be moved to the 'things we all agree on about Sheff United', now!

 

[BritishSteel]

Hanson would have Mmmbopped the ball down to be fair......

 

[Ricky]

Wednesday's home support is better than ours in Sheffield derbies.

 

[United Aren't Back.]

It was horrific.
As is the current one.

 

[grafikhaus]

Wednesday's home support is better than ours in Sheffield derbies.

It's because it's their Cup Final. Did they throw their shirts in the crowd last night?

 

[lakedistblade]

Wednesday's home support is better than ours in Sheffield derbies.

Yes they got right behind them second half and it makes the point gained more hard won than it looks on paper.last prem promotion season Bramall lane was rocking and we need that again and how for these last games.

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

Wednesday's home support is better than ours in Sheffield derbies.

...they rely on a shit band. I felt like I was at a 1990s Steelers' game again at times last night.

False atmosphere.

 

[Silent Blade]

Wednesday's home support is better than ours in Sheffield derbies.

Not true

Nov 2018 30,261 - 2,220 ticket allocation for away fans = 28,041
Last night 31,630 - 3,900 ticket allocation for away fans = 27,730

 

[Whiston Blade]

I don't get the love-in some fans have with Dean Henderson. He's a good keeper but he'll be gone at the end of the season and someone else will fill his boots. Remember Jamal Blackman...?

 

[Dellas Cowboys]

All forwards eligible for our current match day squads are niche players. Our best all round striker is on loan at Wigan.

 

[Adiroy]

Last night was the worst atmosphere in the away end in a sheff derby at hillsboro since ive been going to em.. and ive not missed one for years!

I know it was a bit of a non event game but having to get a 'sing up shoreham' going is shocking!

Something certainly not right going off with the first batch of tickets being sold last night, know a few and was talking to some last night who hadnt been for years or even had a season ticket but had been offered tickets via corporate/club

 

[Freddie]

I really wish we’d taken the Checkatrade Trophy seriously. And Martin Peters should have been given longer as manager.
