Just can't get enthused

[jimmymuir]

How about beating the pigs?

That goes without saying! Sadly can't see it happening though.

I just hope we go on a run in the FA Cup this season. I know we never do under Wilder, but it's the only thing that could bring fans some joy in a difficult year so far.

Two words……

Anyone else there that day?

Me.

I went to sleep.in the 2nd half. It was a lovely sunny day, and the sun shone brightly on the away end. Had a few pints pre match, we were getting bossed, so sleep came quite naturally.

Think it was already 3-0 when I went to sleep, and I do recall lily livered Tony McMahon (one of my most detested Utd players), limping off because he didn't fancy it.

Good weekend though, bar the football.

Really struggling to get enthused right now.

And it's not the results, it's the style, the model, the vision, the direction, the future plans etc.

I'm just not sure what as a club we're trying to be or what our identity is, both off and on the field.

Not sure if it's just me, my mental mind set or just the lack of communication, but I'm even noticing I'm even posting less frequently on here.

Anyone else feeling like this?

100% agree. I’ve also given up, I’ve no excitement for the derby whatsoever. They beat us ‘meh’ we’re shit anyway, we beat them ‘we should be beating them’

Last Saturday exposed how far off we are. My only optimism is we’ve got JTW, Arblaster & Hamer to come back soon.

This thread is the most depressing ever. We have enough quality to beat the pigs surely

Last Saturday exposed how far off we are.

We didn't even lose. We drew with a team six places above us and had the best chances.

I've never known such a miserable bunch.

weve got the players to beat them comfortably but too many just not performing its time for them to stand up and be counted next sunday and give our fans something to shout about

We were rubbish. A team 6 places above us contradicts your positivity because that’s accepting we’re rubbish taking into consideration our current position

Here's our last six games against them. We've won three and drawn three. Since the last game in March they've gone into administration and lost most of their best players. They've won just one of their 15 games so far this season. They haven't beaten us since 2012.

Yet they're nailed on to beat us according to many Blades fans.

They have a depleted team who are giving absolutely everything in matches, and they'll be even more up for it on Sunday. I hope I'm wrong, but I think most of our side is gutless and lack cojones. Time will tell.

Hmmmm...I know the pigs are up for it but they keep losing. They have a chance in the same way that Donny would have a chance in the FA Cup v Leeds. Not writing them off, but Wilder has never lost to them as Blades manager, and I am sure he is very motivated to keep that record intact. Campbell, Seriki, Cooper, O Hare, Peck, Brooks, Burrows and McCallum will definitely be up for it, as will Hamer and Blaster if they return (Blaster unlikely of course). Others will be motivated by the rest. Wilder will ensure that there will be zero shirking. It could be a draw, but also we could thrash them. Can't see us losing, but if we do it will not be through lack of effort.
