MATCH DAY THREAD: Burton Albion v The Mighty Blades

[Not_a_Cheat]

At last back in action after the laborious International Break. Thank god we can get back to watching decent attacking, open football. I'd even go as far as including the PL in that, cus it's a damn sight more interesting than watching England. Anyway, no game is going to be a pushover, and we'll need to be efficient and competitive to continue our great 'start' and form. Can only hope Clough goes with his 'usual' mentality, and if we get the early goal it could be a very happy evening and something of a tactical lesson. Most importantly lets's get those 3 points and return to the summit for now.....

So....

Any team news?

Baldock a possible returnee?

Which keeper gets the nod?

Or maintain a winning line up?

Not best happy it's on a Friday night, because I love the match day chatroom on a Saturday afternoon while listening to it. 2 hours ahead here so it'll be 9.45pm kick off....

But more importantly for those travelling, have a very safe journey and I hope the lads do you proud....

Come on Blades, let's fucking hammer these!

I'm massively up for this one. It would give me great satisfaction to see us give Clough and his team a beating on their own patch. It would also be revenge for that pitiful, infuriating 1-0 home defeat to them under Adkins.

But I'll take any win. And we should get one. Our lot won't be complacent and will give 100% like they do every game.

You're welcome.

I never take any game for granted, and I am sure the same applies to our club, team and coaching staff.

If we just play our usual game, we will come away with all three points.

 

[Boxer Blade]

Wish it was on TV, Friday night games, away, on Sky in the boozer makes for a great night especially this one, I reckon we will play to our normal strengths and batter em, a few weeks ago I said somebody is going to get a good beating, similar to last season well that was hull so its time for someone to get it away from home, 0-3, top of the league, pissed, bring it on.

First draw of season coming right up. 0-0

 

[Alfreton14Blade]

Tough QPR-like game expected. Need intensity/aggression levels to be at 100% from the very start.

Wearing the delicious third white kit again tonight for some reason

 

[Harry's Game]

Please please please win tonight.

Apart from my wish being granted to win at the sty this is the other away game I wanted to win when the fixtures came out for one reason only, no prizes guessing what that is.

If we play at our best we should win, but Burton will be up for this one, we cannot afford to be off the pace even a little.

 

[Basing Blade]

Why the white again? Dont burton play in yellow. Cant be marketing as they are not on sale.

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

[Dutch Blade]

Cheers mate, but not happening for some reason. Sent a request via VIP Blades anyway.

Awaiting admin approval as I type

 

[dc_blade]

Blackman back in the XI, Baldock still out so Wright plays and Bashambauer continues at wingback.

 

[Blade100]

Blackmans back in net

 

[fuerstenberger]

I fear for us in this one. Sordell will cause us problems. As someone else has said, this will be like the QPR type game. They will soak up pressure and play balls over the top. Wilder/Knill will know what is needed, let's hope the players can do it. I fear, 2-1. I think 1-1. If the team has learned from QPR, I'm going 1-3. That's all bases covered, demonstrating I know fuck all.

Duffy has to start.

don't post that on here. the admins will have your knackers

 

[west_yorks_blade]

Strong team. Love it. Have the bastards. COYRAWW

 

[Harry's Game]

Basham always does a steady job in the wingback roll but doesn't have the legs to get back defensively as Baldock or Freeman.

 

[Blade 62]

We're top of the league, again

Got to love our Billy
