Knee Jerk Reflections

[Houso]

First up, this isn't a "told you so" type thread. I think pretty much all of us have been guilty of toys-of-the-pram shoutbox tantrums at some point.

Just curious though how the more critical among us tally some of the abuse thrown at the players and manager over the last couple of months in particular?

Shouts for a new manager, saying no one at the club gives a fuck, that we should only retain a couple of players etc etc.

Whichever way you look at it, we've finished the season in 5th, which is solid in itself, but particularly impressive given how poorly we started.

Do you hold your hands up and say "fair fucks, I get caught up in the moment", or do you keep schtum and wait for the inevitable playoff heartbreak before calling each of the players (and manager) shit bastards who clearly hate the club?

I think a less-than-diplomatic response is they should look to remove sand from foreskins and vaginas

Now's not the time to try turn fans on eachother after confirming play offs with a 4-0 against the league winners.

We all get angry when we play crap and the opposite when we don't. Some more so than others. Part of being a football fan

As I say Barney, I'm not being holier than thou and admitting I've got stroppy a couple of times this season. Might be worth reminding ourselves of this though when we act like 5 year olds in the shoutbox when we let in a goal.

Hecky and his assistants have done a magnificent job in steering the team, with all its injuries and setbacks, through to the playoffs.

Seems to be how folks act today. A couple of wins on the bounce and everything is great, a couple of losses and everything is terrible.

No doubt if we don't make the final then our manager is shit etc. It's tiring

My favourite new trend are the halftime toys out of pram thread.like some people have never seen a game of football before. Also a growing sense of entitlement.

I am surprised we made the play-offs given the injury problems we have and still have.

I said no Sharp = no goals but the last two matches have seen other players up their game and fill the void left by him.

N'Diaye and MGW was a partnership that I wanted to see continue even after SJ had left.

I am pleased when the Blades make me eat humble pie.

 

[SB_90]

ive just be frustrated by us dominating many games & not taking our chances. or throwing away points late on

 

[Ranmoorblade]

I think McBurnie getting injured has saved our season because N'Diaye has stepped up and done the business.

 

[Dkc]

Imagine where we'd have finished if we hadn't conceded points around the 90th minute on about six occasions

 

[Houston_Blade]

Imagine where we'd have finished if we hadn't conceded points around the 90th minute on about six occasions

Or appointed Jokanovic

 

[Boxer Blade]

FallowfieldBlade wants Heckingbottom out and doesn't rate little Ben who played really well today, oh and Billy Sharp, FallowfieldBlade just likes the sound of his own voice

The only time ive really lost my shit since Hecky took over was at Preston away. A real chuck it away moment.

I didnt get the angst when we had injuries all over the team.

Pre hecky i wAsnt that upset with the players either.
