My take ...

Great report, thanks.
Well, what a game! Totally absorbing, give Blackburn their due, they have improved dramatically since last at the Lane.
But! With the recent changes to the team structure and tactics we have returned to earlier season form. Resilient, aggressive, positive forward movement. I hope we continue this in our league form. Promotion must remain the main goal, but this adventure has helped us regain our heart at last.
Wembley day out is going feed the confidence for all sections of the club.
We are getting the rub of the green again, but this comes with a more positive attitude.
Great match, great result, f*ck off moaning self entitled Muckburn whingers. We outfought you. You ran out of steam. Simples!
 

Just watched the game again. Aluko talked a load of nonsense. And agreed, can they not come up with a better main presenter.

McCoist is quality and McAnuff pretty reasonable but otherwise the usual low rent ITV.

Thought Laura Woods was damned easy on the eye and charismatic as main presenter. Aluko clearly has never sat in Bramall Lane much or cares much who we are. Just a payday for her.

Macanuff is always a decent pundit

Again, why are you so (weirdly) obsessed with me? And no, one game where the team clicks and Berge puts in a fucking shift at last does not make him Tony Currie. He's still got a fucking long way to go before he gets my approval for his reputation and fee. Strange how some (like you) cannot see the pretty gutless outings he's been in this season, especially since he's been back from injury where the joker was played for at least five or six games after his return. But some others are easily pleased I suppose.

And I don't have to put my hand in my pocket to be a Unitedite, nor express my opinions on their games. I'm not a slave to a bladey-blade's judgement like yours and never, ever have been. There are countless others on here who don't 'contribute' or attend games and still express their opinions. But you're focussed on my bearing because you're a bit odd and possibly think by 'taking me down' you'll garner some self-reward. You may have not noticed that that sort of shit is what I knock out of the park, so stop wasting your time and contribute to the debate about the football or fuck off, eh?

Keep up with your shit and it's obvious you are singling me out and might need reporting to Foxy or Linz. Simple as.

Maybe you don’t like your own medicine.

What? From you? Seriously feller, you don't even come close. There are posters on here who are far and away better than you and can give me a run for my money.

Believe me, you are struggling at the bottom of the Vanarama.

Now move on, yeah?

Phew. That’s a relief!
Good to know that gigantic ego of yours is still intact.
Que sera sera, whatever will be will be,
Pompey’s too busy to see the Blades at Wemberlee,
Que sera sera.

Yeah. I have a gig that night. Bit difficult to rock up at Wembley, motor back to the south coast, pick up a van full of kit and go and do 2 hours of live music. I'm sure you understand and it ticks your satisfaction box because y'know, everyone who says they support Sheffield United should be judged by the likes of you, shouldn't they?

Would that be on Fantasy Island?
 

Enjoy your gig in the land of make believe.
We Blades will be in the Green Tree, early before watching our team at Wenberleee!

Fucking hell, give it a rest. You are making yourself look a right twat. Everyone knows Pommps is in a band, so why all this make-believe bollocks?
 
when I was a kid used to stand more or level with the left-hand side of the goal kop end. one thing happened every game shot by the Legendary Hodgy. the other thing was to make sure I was never hit by the ball if Woody on the rare occasion he was off target. you would not want to get hit. it would be emergency ward ten.

Emergency Ward 10…….
That takes me back,
Nurse Roberts….. Oo-er…..
 
Thought his double save was excellent stuff mesen.

I also think he had a decent game. Though I don't subscribe to Piggy Palmer's view that it isn't something we need to look at in the summer.

He's let a few in where you say "not his fault exactly, however I see other keepers stopping that being a goal".

A couple of near post ones and one against Stoke he didn't have to guess on as recent examples.

He's perfectly serviceable at this level but when you're facing strikers who can put the ball where they want as easy as shelling peas then those marginal ones can be the difference between points and no points and in turn staying up and not.

If he can attain the heights of maybe 12 months back then he keeps his place but he does need someone there who, should he drop his levels, consigns him to the bench.

I get the gist that Davies is there if he gets injured. It would take a lot for him to lose his spot on merit.

Just like to see him get to a game.
Reason being, think he’s been way too critical about this team and some of the players all season.
This is one of the best seasons I’ve had supporting the Blades, and following them round the country.
You get an undeniable different, and not necessarily always more positive perspective on a game, team and individual effort, when you see it live. Yes, tv or whatever he watches the games on can give you better angles, but its good to get out and see them, and enjoy the company and opinion of fellow Blades who are actually there. Even when we lose and there’s plenty of negativity around.
Fortunately we haven’t done much this season.
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.
I know, he has a different view, and we differ 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!
We are all Blades, wherever we choose to watch em. Some of us just have a more rounded view than others!
I look forward to his/ yours robust and maybe not so gentle defence!
 
The Legendary Alan Woodward scored a lot of great goals mostly from 25 yards to 30 yards. I would say he is the best I have ever seen.
the one at the baseball ground in 1976 has to be the best long range goal woody has ever scored

No need to look forward to it. Opinions differ, all well and good, but accusing someone of being a liar again and again is pathetic, in all honesty. I'm not in the habit of springing to anyone's defence, by the way. I find it touching that you spent an age typing out your lengthy reply - dedication.

As, I thought I’d explained, a gentle leg pull!
Only you using the word liar.
Calm down.
If it makes you feel better, I hope you and your fwend enjoy the gig on semi final night. He might even play your favourite song for you!

I won't be at the gig, I'll be at the semi-final.

My favourite song is The Gates of Delirium and I can guarantee he won't play it.
 

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
