[Pittsburg Blade]

Wilder has made a massive cock up. We are so lacking any skilled players.
Really need to get away from this tiresome crap and get some proper management who get proper football players.

Even pissant little Fulham have four or five skillful flair players. We have exactly fuckin zero.

 

[BettingBlade]

Can hear wilder going mad

Dunno why, he’s set us up like this. This one is on him.

 

[A Storm of Blades]

The starting 11, the tactics, the persisting with the front 2 that has always been atrocious as a partnership, Stevens keeping his place, no Didsy or Bogle. League 1 from Wilder this.

 

[AnstonBlade1]

We create absolutely naff all, too slow, no creativity what so ever

 

[Gavlar]

Come on Sheffield do BHA a massive favour. I hate looking over my shoulder. I get restless.

Sheffield aren’t playing.

 

[drblade]

It's only been 5 days for me.

Cannot believe how bad we are to watch. It was genuinely the best football I'd ever seen at the Lane for three years.

Agree. The turnaround is astonishing.

 

[essexblade73]

Devoid of confidence, devoid of a plan.

 

[DroitwichBlade]

I bet there won’t be any changes until around 65 mins.....and he will bring Norwood on.

 

[FatPaul]

I think ramsdale should kick it reyt hard to Mcburnie

 

[BettingBlade]

6 away goals all season and we set up like this, is Wilder playing for 0-0?

Could be an important point at the end of the season

 

[MK4BLADE]

McBurnie is so shit its untrue. He has 2 talents fouling players and heading it to a Fulham opposition player. He aint even Championship standard

 

[Kivo Blade]

No threat at all up front ffs

 

[knowsnowt]

Mcburnie getting pelters when everyone single player has been dog shit is classic Blade Bladyness

With him in the team it's pure anti football.

 

[HydeParkBlade]

Have we had a touch in their box yet?

 

[originaltrueblade]

Woeful at present

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

This is genuinely embarrassing. It's like watching a bottom league 1 team

 

[toledo]

I’m sorry I am usually an optimist about my fav team but in one word, atrocious....

 

[Hockey'sBeard]

Wilder was on the defensive regarding his team selection in the pre match interview....the question I have is why is Norwood not playing

 

[Superblade7]

God this is awful! Other than lumping it forward, have we had any possession?

 

[HydeParkBlade]

With him in the team it's pure anti football.

Tbf, it's not his fault everyone is told to hoof it to him

 

[Geordie Blade]

Give it five more minutes and then I’m going to say it...

 

[RWE]

Diabolical so far, how many time have we lost possession. If the tactic was to counter attack why pick the 2 slowest forwards... fuck me decisions on and off the pitch seem poor at the moment.

 

[essexblade73]

Players with no composure when tbey get it. All of them look shot. Who needs sports psychologists when you can boost morale by calling someone a cunt eh?!

 

[mazzablade]

They have pace, power and skill seemingly all over the pitch - everything we don’t at this point.

 

[JOEYDEE]

And here at Craven Cottage ,after 30 minutes of Premier League action,the score remains 0-0.........

 

[A Storm of Blades]

To say this has been one of the worst halves of football in a season this bad, is a pretty fucking spectacular effort.

 

[drblade]

72 passes. Wow

 

[K1 flabby stick]

Give it five more minutes and then I’m going to say it...

It...said it for you

 

[knowsnowt]

Tbf, it's not his fault everyone is told to hoof it to him

Agreed, but it's a shit tactic and never offers anything. Absolutely turgid dog shit to watch, and an inevitable loss.

 

[toledo]

Commentary on US... United look like a beaten team and it’s only 0-0!!!! Wow
