I was surprised McGoldrick didn’t take it given duties were split between him and Sharp last season. I think Norwood’s only previous penalty was a miss on his debut in the Cup.

Scored one against Brentford at the Lane.

Good 'un too.

Brentford at home

That’s a terrible lapse in memory given I saw it too. Not even last calendar year...

 

[JOEYDEE]

No. Luke freeman either so not our strongest starting line up... 2 0 win.. Pigs got four against them so they are obviously better than us.

We don't want to peak too early now..do we?

In fact thinking back, wasn’t that the last we were awarded? Neither Sharp nor McGoldrick were on the pitch at the time which was why he took it – maybe he’s retained the job as a result.

Somebody is streaming from their phone on the blade2blade fb page. Not sure if someone's already put that

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Another penalty, won by K.Freeman this time...

...dispatched by Toxic Ollie again.

Yeah, I think it was.

Would go along with how it's usually done, take them until you miss.

Too much sun and drink for James!

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

Oliver McGoldrick??

Another new signing?

 

[bromtom]

Sounds like McG should have had a hattrick by now.

 

[BladeTillIDie]

Bit worrying Ravel's fitness again. He needs game time for match fitness.

FT 2-0 Blades

Had 8 shots on target in the first half, should probably have battered them.

Good for fitness though, and more like a first choice 11

 

[JimmyMuir94]

Good job it's only a friendly. That. Was. Dull.

Kit man potluck with United.

On closer inspection, those socks could well be from the League One promotion season. We used those 16-18.

Did Jags try to get forward like Basham does?

Wilder’s post-match interview with Mike McCarthy.

“The numbers we’re churning out statistically are good. Are we ready to start a Premier League game on Tuesday? Well, no.”

McCarthy and Wilder also clearly haven’t seen the pronunciation guide for Lys Mousset, opting for “Lease Moosette”.

For long-standing MM-CW followers, the interview starts friendly before the rattiness ratchets up. Very noticeable the difference in reaction to hearing the names today versus hearing the exact same names from Poundshop Partridge the other night.

“Lease Moosette”

Moo set = cattle, lease cattle = Wilder leaving to set up a dairy farm confirmed.
