Match Thread MATCH DAY THREAD: Northampton Town v The Might Blades

[1973Blade]

A brave move by Wilder. His gambles have paid off on other occasions so In Wilder We Trust.

 

[Esablade]

Sharp, Hanson & Duffy Dropped to bench. Clarke, O'Shea & Carruthers start.......................

Unsure about that!!!

Keep the faith Blades!
In Wilder We Trust!

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Sharp looked tired till we went with three up on Wednesday – think he put a lot into that spell of games around the Bolton/Scunny matches, and those efforts are taking their toll. CW will have been keen to get Clarke in following his goal, and tbh I'm happier with this line-up than I'd have been with Clarke and Sharp starting – which hasn't looked effective at any stage this season.

Hell of a bench to change it if needed too.

I have every faith in Wilder & my red & white wizzaaaaaaaards.

I don't doubt, individually, any of the changes. Just thought on the face of it 3 was a lot when I expected "unchanged"

Could throw Northampton off their game as much as it has done the fans!

I still think we'll get the result we need for promotion today. Sami on his game today could be the key.

IM SO FUCKING NERVOUS RIGHT NOW!!!!!!

 

[SB_90]

Got Northampton match programme from Lane and tell you what it's a pleasant read

"Champions elect"

"Wish them luck in the Championship next season"

"Look set to deservedly lift the league 1 title in the coming weeks" etc

Think I like this Northampton lot

Cobblers

It is strange because i rarely get nervous for football because over the last 20yrs ive seen it all think last time was oxford in august. But i am nervous as this what ive been waiting 5yrs for. Sharp, Hanson & Duffy on the bench. Well talk about Brave XI for game that "should" seal promotion &

If we go up today, will be strange dejavu that Wilder got promotion
15/16 9th apr at sixfields
16/17 8th apr at sixfields

More nervous now than I have been all season

 

[FriethBlade]

Billy's gonna be well p1ssed off he's been benched for the game likely to seal promotion. My bets is it's level with 20 mins to go and he comes on and scores and the winner !

 

[Fanny magnet]

The Exxon Valdez is a better option than Hanson !
UTB

Give it a rest now ,you've been schooled on that subject enough now

 

[Iceybabey]

Scunny gone infront

 

[DronnieBlade]

Give it a rest now ,you've been schooled on that subject enough now

UTB

 

[Danny_Blade]

I'm not nervous at all.

Of course I want us to seal promotion in style with a win but if it stays like this and Fleetwood's score we'll be up anyway!

 

[3-GBlade]

Oldham score 1-0 !

 

[drblade]

Fleetwood losing 1-0

 

[BanbridgeBlade]

FLEETWOOD LOSING!!!!!!!!!!!

[TarquinDelouche]

On the BBC...

 

[BanbridgeBlade]

That goals been coming. We're understandably, very nervy & need someone in midfield to put their foot on the ball.

Come on Wilder, get them going for the 2nd half & let's go up in style

 

[Mesut Özil's Lawnmower]

This beamback is honestly the most uncomfortable thing I've ever experience jammed next to a fat woman who won't stop rummaging in her massive bag, and bloke behind me who can't seem to keep his knees in one place

If we don't win this I'm demanding my money back on grounds of serious stress

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Get back to the side we know Wilder, Hanson, Sharp on.

 

[loyalblade95]

hit on counter top far corner no chance for keeper

 

[sufcboy95]

Why is Clarke playing

 

[Hillsboro Blade]

Don't get me started. Ticket office sold me a season ticket holders seat. Comes in with the attitude. He's a fucking dickhead and the ticket office are fucking bigger dickheads. It's not fucking rocket science you fucking tits.

[PokerBlade]

Very muted performance so far. Not got Clarke into the game, not sure if O'shea is meant to be a striker or midfielder because right now he's neither. Carruthers doing very little but neither is Fleck.

Need to make a positive change in the second half. Game is still there for the taking.

 

[Mesut Özil's Lawnmower]

Don't think Clarke has done much wrong, midfield as been shocking and whenever he's had the ball up to there's not been a Blade near him

Midfield bar Coutts is a state at the minute and Lafferty keeps getting done

I'd probably bring at least Billy on now, O'Shea off

I might go and sit on Kop

Want another pint but I feel trapped. Get this game over with so I can go to pub!

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Why is Clarke playing

And O'Shea, don't get this team selection

Get Sharpy, Hanson & Duffy on and we win 3-1

 

[loyalblade95]

sharp coming on

 

[FriethBlade]

And Hanson, that's one of few Wilder experiments that hasn't worked
