Well, I wasn't far out....
Think an early goal and a fast tempo would really get the fans roaring the team on.
A lot is said that we turn quickly if we get off on the wrong foot but after 6 years that frustration is understandable. Showing desire and effort works superbly for us fans though. Come on United let's show Wilders signings just what we are really like and why this really is a special place to play your football

Brilliant. Keep clapping, son.

Well one of the captain's was in Scarborough at the cricket, Tuesday and WednesdayIt is like watching the Titanic. The only difference is we have two captains who don't give a fook and have buggered off to Belgium and Saudi.
We have the same rhetoric every year. The sap of a manager starts with optimistic talk of bids, it then goes quiet as the window slams shut. We then talk loans, we then talk January. It is known as the McCabe bollocks and each year we get worse.
Until he goes nothing will change.
No clapper, just a realist.
You just revel in it when things aren't going well for us don't you?
Laughing because we were losing?
Blade my arse
I await your apology but I ain't holding my breath. Your not man enough to admit you were wrong and praise the second half performance. Just like the transfer window, you just can't wait to stick the knife in before it's over.
WE ARE BLADESMEN, WE ARE BLADESMEN, SUPER BLADESMEN FROM THE LANE!!!!!
As Shred would have said " Our team may be shit but it's OUR team. FFS get behind em"
COYRAWW
I have given you a like for 100% enthusiasm.
We all want to get behind the team.........but, and here I have to put a reality on the situation.
The Greasy chip butty song at the start of the 2nd half was one of the most limp performances EVER - that sadly is where the players have driven the fans. Two goals in the 2nd period was good to see and the chants were back at a decent volume.
It still doesn't alter the fact that this team and a lot of the players are worse than what we have got rid of.
I genuinely wish CW and AK all the best - we are at best middle of the tables unless something drastic happens.
Middle of the table, even in CW's first season, isn't good enough - sorry.

It is if we are Champions next season.
All bollocks? Nah just as I thought. You haven't any and your not man enough. We were talking about today, not promotion in May. Blade my arseNope. All bollocks. We were heading for another dismal home defeat. Fortunately someone got under their skin in the second 45 and we won. I'm not holding my breath though. You might think four points out of fifteen is fucking pucker. I don't.
I'll apologise if we are promoted next May. You and your ridiculous optimism has a very, very long way to go until then.
pommpey
Ridiculous optimism? No. I'm just prepared to give them a bit of slack and patience. If it goes tits up I'll be giving them criticism and I'll critisize the board if we sign nobody. You though will slag off at any given opportunity. Blade my arseNope. All bollocks. We were heading for another dismal home defeat.

No.I'm talking about long term success for Sheffield United. Well done for today and all that, but the future is 'that' way.
You've spent the last four weeks excusing all of the dogshit served up as football and today, we managed to overcome one of our fellow relegation clubmates. By one goal.
Here. Take these tissues.
Next May is where it counts. I am, and have been, man enough to apologise for my negative comments if we get promoted. In six years however, you are the one still looking daft.
Next May. Promotion. We all know how shit it is swimming against the current that is McCabe and ending up disappointed. Promotion is what I expect. Promotion is what everyone expects. 'xcept you, of course.

Do you laugh and take great joy when we are losing? Few if any genuine blades do thatAnd you're in a position to decide whether other people are Blades how?
No, who was doing that? How do you know they were doing that?Do you laugh and take great joy when we are losing? Few if any genuine blades do that
Barney, pompey was laughing at half time because we were losing and quoted my post that if we played at a quick tempo and got an early goal we would do well today. Just don't think it was called for. You've taken stick on this board but even you would have done thatNo, who was doing that? How do you know they were doing that?
Have you got a camera that long that it stretches to Portsmouth?
In any case, are you ever so sure he wasn't taking great joy at the fact that at the time he was proving you wrong, rather than at the result?
I wouldn't no, and it's true that not many, if any genuine blades would laugh at the fact that we are losing.Barney, pompey was laughing at half time because we were losing and quoted my post that if we played at a quick tempo and got an early goal we would do well today.

You were laughing at half time when we were losing.
My post was eventually proven right. It was fuck all to do with promotion next May and you know it.
Until last week I hadn't missed a game pre season or since.
I critisized the team v Southend
were as you just stab them at any opportunity and without seeing them.
I want promotion but unlike you realise it isn't a God given right
Blade my arse
Not a very good one I'd sayI wouldn't no, and it's true that not many, if any genuine blades would laugh at the fact that we are losing.
But as I say, I'd presume it was the fact that he thought he was proving a point, rather than at the score line?
Not speaking on behalf of others here btw, all I'm taking issue with is you dictating whether other people are Blades or not.
Considering he's someone that has been around these boards for years, and has been to games at the Lane, and that I actually also remember another poster talking about bumping into him at the Lane, (think it was Grappler. Sorry if that's a weird thing to remember) the probability is that it's the former, and that he's a Blade, wouldn't you agree?
laughing at my optimism that was proved correct?No. I was laughing at you. At half time, I was lamenting a pretty shit performance where we'd gone one down to an avoidable goal. The laughing was aimed at your misguided optimism.
Your post will only be proven right if in the next game, and subsequent games, we close the gap and gain promotion. As said, we all know what it feels like seeing 'great performances' and ending up with the shit bucket. So far, we have four points, from fifteen. That might be ace to you, because you're easily pleased like that. Speak to me in the first week of November if we are third in the table on goal difference.
WARK WARK! BIG BILLY FUCKING MASSIVE FUCKING HUGE BLADE ALERT! WARK WARK!
Good. Well observed. I'd say 0-3 down after fifteen minutes with fuck all response deserves criticism. You are almost Deadbat. Not quite. In fact never near.
Look. I don't need to see them if we are (were) bottom of the fucking third division with one point and playing like cunts, selling best players and buying donkeys. You see them all the time (so it says here) and can't even see the shit from the sugar. Who's the bellend, then?
Okay. We'll stay in the third. Happy days. It isn't a god given right. 32000 seater stadium, 20k attendance and a fuck off budget and supposed backing.
Yeah. Jog on, clapper.
pommpey
laughing at my optimism that was proved correct?
We were talking about today, not promotion, May or whenever and you know it. Doesn't stop you twisting the truth though or even admitting you were wrong today though does it? I'll be the first to slag off if we bring nobody in by the deadline. That make me a clapper? No. It shows I'm giving them the opportunity to bring players in before I spout off.
So when was promotion awarded to the club with the biggest stadium and attendance?
Now who's the bellend?
If you read my posts carefully in the last few weeks you'd see I've said we haven't been good enough and by some way. My point with you was that we have to show a bit of patience and give it while the windows shuts before we hang the board for another season. You didn't. Hard as it is we have to give them time to gel. You didn't. Fuck me it's bloody frustrating but we've tried most other methods and none have worked. I'm not a clapper or a slasher. I'm a realist and the reality is a new manager rarely comes in, makes signings, alters methods around and gets off to a flying start. Like you say. Let's see where we are in November. Plenty of room for improvement, plenty of time to do it inHah. You are consistent, I'll give you that. You've spent a long time trying to chip away at the critics and adding your own soupcon of glee, even when we are roundly and soundly beaten. Now, we scrape a win today. I'll admit, I am dead pleased. Unlike you, mind, who has gone from soft to solid and straight through to vinegar strokes without even unbuttoning your kecks. Today's win is notable. It's notable because we have gone from one in four to four in five. That is appalling form. And your 'giving them the opportunity' call deserves some muted clapping, even if we have had enough opportunity singe the transfer window opened. If you even think there is any plan to bring anyone of quality in (and I don't mean div four cack, dressed up as 'hungry young talent') then you need your bumps felt feller.
Like it or not, before half time or at full time, we are still in shit street and you are making mirth of a victory over a fucking team we should be putting the second eleven out and stuffing. Well done for being right at ninety minutes. We are still at the foot of the table with a gash goal difference with other shit teams, like the one just above who fucked us a new shitlocker not ten days ago.
Get real.
