Just like to see him get to a game.
What about everyone else who don't go to games yet register an opinion on here? You down on their bearing too? No, you're not, are you? You are singling me out simply because of 'My take ...' and because it scratches your itch of self-worth which comes from the entitled opinion that only those who witness the game live can offer such opinions. Let's see ...
Reason being, think he’s been way too critical about this team and some of the players all season.
Yet you offer zero structure as to why you think I have been critical nor what your opinion is of each game and their performances. It sounds like you think we've played fucking outstanding every game. Hate to piss in your chip bag but I think you are outnumbered (even by a chimp like Fallowfield) on that one.
This is one of the best seasons I’ve had supporting the Blades, and following them round the country.
Really? Beter than four years ago? Better than 2002-03? Better than 1971-72? I mean, that's just your subjective opinion and you're entitled to it. As am I.
You get an undeniable different, and not necessarily always more positive perspective on a game, team and individual effort, when you see it live.
'Not necessarily always more positive'? What the fuck are you babbling on about here? So you want me to go to a match (hundreds of miles away) to get a more negative perspective on the game? And how do you get a better perspective on game, team and individual effort sat in say, the away end corner than I do on the halfway line with tracking cameras, slow motion and in game stats? Serious question. Or is it just that 'you HAVE to be at a game, just like Big Billy Blade Me to qualify in my book'. It's that, isn't it? It's got nowt to do with perspective because you offer fuck all in analysis even at the most basic level. I'm your problem, not what I write or what I have seen or what I opine about. It's pathetic.
Yes, tv or whatever he watches the games on can give you better angles,
I'm glad we agree
but its good to get out and see them, and enjoy the company and opinion of fellow Blades who are actually there.
I'm glad we agree. You gonna pay for me to do that then? Every game? Be aware I'll need compensation for my Saturday nights cancelling gigs and travel, hotels, stadium entrance, food ... you name it.
Even when we lose and there’s plenty of negativity around.
So, um ... whaddya want here? Positivity or negativity? What 'exactly' do you want me to do? Be prepared to be told to fuck off, mind. When we lose, my front room is pretty negative. Ask my wife.
Fortunately we haven’t done much this season.
Hang on. Up there you said 'this is the best season'. Make your fucking mind up, Forrest.
It’s not a matter of who is the bigger Blade etc., not interested in that. I genuinely think it would give him a more rounded perspective on the team it’s players, the effort they put in, than just relying on a screen all the time.
It is though, isn't it? It irks the flying fuck out of you that I have the audacity to post stuff you disagree with having just watched on Sky Sports what you watched sat in the stands and furthermore, because my out of tens don't match yours, I am 'in for some treatment'. Never mind about the match. It's the pure affrontery you feel that pommpey can articulate a page of drivel whilst you have paid thirty quid to watch us scrape a draw against Blackpool at home. Fucking diddums.
I know, he has a different view, and we differ on this.
I'm glad we agree on this
I’ve no idea whether he’s in a band or not, and care less. It’s just a gentle leg pull. He’s been known to do that himself you know, and often not so gentle! I admire your loyalty though, very touching!
It may have escaped your attention but Greenwich owes no loyalty to anyone except Sheffield United. He and I have known each other and been on messageboards together and remained friends and respect each other for nearly a quarter of a century. I don't ask for him to come on here and defend me and for him to do so (because he is a peacemaker of the top order) is significant in itself. Take the hint, eh?
We are all Blades, wherever we choose to watch em. Some of us just have a more rounded view than others!
And most, if not all, don't demand qualification or match attendance to be able to comment. Take me on about my comments about the football, the team, the match. Leave what you feel is what you require me to do to fullfil those comments out of it.
I look forward to his/ yours robust and maybe not so gentle defence!
Happy to help
