Genuinely, few finer defenders in the league that this lot, and the stars prove it. Incredibly proud.

You think to other success stories in recent years, such as that Ipswich town season in the late 90s, and ours is different - our solidarity is so well drilled, methodical, practised, it's no fluke, at all.

And you know what, it's cos they're all hard as fucking nails.

Even though it’s from Der Stürmer that’s a great read

JOC says nowt. He has taken to the Yorkshire accent.

Plus all three cost half the price of Jason Nogoals and less than Adam Reach. Add Baldock and Stevens and they still cost less than Nogoals.

I still think Jack O'Connell is quite underappreciated by a lot of our fans. He's been an incredible player for us, but rarely seems to be spoken about in man of the match, or player of the year discussions. He's an incredible talent and is the one player I think we're likely to lose soon.

Or one that will play for us in Europe, break in the England team win this years strictly and Ballon Dor..........My glass is half full!

Martin Keown doesn't get any better looking with age.

He’s 8 out of 10 every game. He’s steady and consistent. Of our players, he’s the most likely to become an international regular and play for one of the elite teams. We’re lucky to have him, but I think all blades appreciate his importance to the team.
I see why Bash catches the eye - he’s unconventional and his rate of development from where he started with us has been staggering.
JOC looks like an elite player.

what a great write up. All three have been brilliant this season. All three main contenders for player of the season

There's also the fact Bash just casually Cruyff turns in the opposition area forcing you to notice him.

Excuse my ignorance, who is Jason Nogoals?

Great read, thanks for sharing Sothall_Blade!

I like the way our players big each other up when doing interviews like this.

Ooooops, should be Jordan Nogoals.
