[spongebobblade]

Long
Brown Wilson O Connell Hussey
J.Wallace Whiteman Brooks
Lavary Clarke Hallam

Subs:- Kids
If any of the above are injured, replace with kids.
Make the stupid, pointless competition work for us as a glorified friendly and get fringe players match fit.

Wonder who gets the job of pushing Wallaces' wheelchair?

 

[Bladesman]

A rather weak team we are putting out.



Well done Blades!

 

[1973Blade]

Have we ever had a crowd of less than 1000 for a competitive game?

 

[1973Blade]

A rather weak team we are putting out.



Well done Blades!

How many minutes before Freeman or Basham are subbed?

 

[Bladesman]

How many minutes before Freeman or Basham are subbed?

We will probably keep them on til half time and then sub them.

 

[robbiez666]

Are we getting our ass fined?

 

[Ricky]

Freeman? Surely that's not necessary.

Good to see that Lavery is fit enough to start.

I suppose there are probably two starters for the Chesterfield game there so it's not too bad, but I would've expected Freeman to need a rest more than most.

Done back on the bench too, that's surprising. Maybe he could start on Sunday.

To me it looks like...


Long

Freeman Brown O'Connell Kelly

Whiteman Basham Slater?

Brooks Hallam Lavery

 

[Bladesman]

Are we getting our ass fined?

Yes, £5000 I think it is.

We will have to tell Leon Clarke that he isn't getting paid this week.

 

[Liaminho9]

Are we getting our ass fined?

I think Long, O'Connell, Basham, Lavery, Brown, Freeman and Whiteman were in the last squad... so nope! Well played Mr Wilder.

EDIT: Nevermind, it has to be 6 players who STARTED the previous fixture, so probably yes.

 

[Kentblade]

Any one going?
Lived at Grimsby 1969 -1972, been at ground a few times.
Coldest place I know when the wind is howling in off the North sea
Any fans attending tonight deserve a medal.
UTB

 

[Broomhall Blade]

Good to see Clarke on the bench.

 

[SB_90]

Line up for Grimsby as i expected, just fill it with youngsters because at least they will get experience & we will have got something out of this dead rubber. Wilder just need to sub 3 of basham o'connell lavery or freeman in opening minutes & give more academy lads on bench experience

 

[Hodgyman]

Any fans attending tonight deserve a medal.

Any fans attending tonight deserve a straight jacket. Better make it a thick one, it's freezing out there

 

[1973Blade]

Nil nil so far, the tension mounts.

 

[GrayBlade]

BOOOOO losing 1-0. Wilder AHHHHHT!!

 

[Esablade]

Good to see Clarke on the bench.

..and Done back swiftly....

 

[1973Blade]

BOOOOO losing 1-0. Wilder AHHHHHT!!

We'll always remember what we were doing when we found out Grimsby were beating us in the checkatrade trophy.

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

George long picking the ball out of the net, sent shivers down my spine

 

[Ricky]

1-1, debut goal for Slater!

At least that's something to come out of it.

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

 

[8lade]

I was going to ask, 'who is Regan Slater?' Not heard anybody say anything about him (BTW looking at the Sky text of the match it looked like we were absolutely ragging them.)

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

Att 597

 

[1973Blade]

When I heard about the goal, I did a half punch in the air and a semi shout of 'yes'! Old habits die hard.

 

[ourbob]

We can pull this off lads.

 

[1973Blade]

Att 597

'You've only come to see United'.

 

[Hodgyman]

I was going to ask, 'who is Regan Slater?' Not heard anybody say anything about him (BTW looking at the Sky text of the match it looked like we were absolutely ragging them.)

He's an under 18's lad who has had a few outings for the under 23's. He looked promising when I saw him. A goal for the "first team" already will do his confidence no end of good

 

[Broomhall Blade]

Goooooooooooooooal

 

[Hodgyman]

1:2 Come back Wilder, all is forgiven

 

[Broomhall Blade]

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal

3-1 Blades O'Connell

 

[Sothall_Blade]

1-3
What a time to be alive
