Excellent performance today, in particular the second half but what a game this guy had. I was really critical of him earlier on in the season but he was a class above today and plays such in important part in our attacking threat. Looks like the Duffy we've seen with Burton and Scunny.

Good stuff.
 



Man of the match today. Constant movement, probing, linking and jinking. Oh and the small matter of two goals.

The midfield were superb to a man, including the two wing backs who both had the best game I've seen them play. Freeman in particular had a belting game.

The Holy Trinity. Duffy, Coutts and Fleck.

Duffy was on different planet today. Why on earth did Clough let him go at Burton? Possible the best thing Nigel did for this club letting him come here.

Duffy probably didn't realise that football is all about making sure the point you start off with isn't lost.

Attacking front foot creative football isn't Nige's thing.

Both wingbacks were good up to the point they crossed the ball into the box – the quality was lacking on that front throughout, but that aside they had good games.
 
They really couldn't get anywhere fucking near him!

It was actually funny.

He looked like a player dropping down 2 divisions.

Also ran his bollocks off.

Top performance.

Key player for us.

Wilder shouldn't have taken him off if he wanted a 5th goal.

I would still give it to Coutts, just. My mate texted to say he was like an international who had turned up at a Sunday League game.

I really think Duffy stood out, but who cares?:)

Coutts was fucking brilliant today. His short range passing is phenomenal. He lacks that forward drive, but he's working on it

To be fair he was knackered and we don't want him twanging that calf muscle again.

I thought their delivery second half was excellent. Interested to see what the consensus is.

Perhaps my memory is scarred at their first half attempts. Freeman put one decent ball along the ground second half that nobody got on the end of and I thought that was his only decent cross second half...
 
Absolute class but I have rated him all season so not remotely surprised.

Great performances all round today though, on the whole. The only thing missing was Done scoring from Duffy's excellent through ball on 8 minutes during the applause for young Kasabian. That would have been perfect!

I'm much happier with Duffy than I was in the first month of the season ........ midfield today was excellent.

Not convinced by Lafferty's crossing though ....... poor today and appalling vs Walsall. Freeman did well today though ..... :)

Doesn't matter a bugger when you've got the EEL rampaging down the wing, 1 run, 1 assist, best winger ever

It was pretty good first-half too. Some people can't see beyond the score line, just as when we played some of our best football first half against Shrewsbury. We have a very, very good team at this level. You wouldn't trade our lads for any of the others. The league table will speak for itself in May....
 
As I've said elsewhere, once we were ahead it was almost unfair on Swindon. If it as a chess match you'd not have blamed them for resigning long before the clock ran out.

To be fair, think most people agreed with you Pinchy, judging by the applause at H-T..Fine margins and all that but we're bl@@dy good aren't we (yes, at this level)..And I'm loving it :):)...keep up the good work Blades
 
5 goals this season now as well.

Easily on course for 10.
