Our team v Worcester in the cup next Saturday.

[Fulwood Blade]

This is my own personal warning to Neil Adkins.

Do NOT play the kids next week.

Do not rest ANY players.

Do NOT embarrass MY football club any more than has happened at Crewe today.

I do not want to suffer any FA Cup 1st round shocks in the papers or TV.

You play a team to win the game comfortably..........Adkins you are looking at a disaster - do not be fooled by the fact Worcester are none league - we are playing like none league ourselves.

We played our "best team" today. Resting a few may actually help.

 

[zablade]

Oh fuck I'd forgotten it was the cup next weekend...

If we go out to Worcester....


Fuck............

Isn't embarrassment more likely if he plays the usual set of strokers who don't actually give a toss?

just fucking cross - aren't we all allowed a mistake..............

[Bladesince59]

I would give team selection and the job to Morgs for the cup "run". We need some backbone - clearly NA is as good as NegNig in instilling that,

 

[Roygbiv]

I wonder if the players would finally feel ashamed of themselves if they lost to Worcester?

 

[Bladesince59]

Neil?

Yep.

 

[Lord Bos of Eckington.]

I wonder if the players would finally feel ashamed of themselves if they lost to Worcester?

No

UTB

 

[robbiez666]

I wonder if the players would finally feel ashamed of themselves if they lost to Worcester?

They'd be too busy getting excited about going out for a session on Saturday night.

 

[Roygbiv]

If you read the autobiographies on the great players they tell how they are devastated after a loss and struggle to even eat. I even recall Paul Stancliffe's wife in the 'United' documentary saying that he would be in a foul mood after The Blades had lost

I get the feeling the majority of these players go home and say "What's for tea love?" before having a few drinks and being totally oblivious to how they are a major part in wrecking something that means so much to people.

 

[jt64]

Long - Wallace, Collins, Basham, Freeman - Reed, Baxter, Scougall - Adams, Sammon, JCR (Is McNulty still here? Is Diego fit?)

See what happens if we play with someone who can naturally lead the line and have others cutting in and playing off him, with some creativity in midfield. Who knows, it might actually work and be entertaining. Have nobody bar Howard over the age of 25 on the bench.

 

[wizadry]

I'd go..

Kelly
Borborkis McGrath Jagielka Quinn
Ndlovu Brown McCall Whitehouse
Deane Beattie​

Isn't Beattie still out with flu

 

[mosbolad]

Isn't Beattie still out with flu

No, he took some of Paddy's cough mixture.

 

[wizadry]

just fucking cross - aren't we all allowed a mistake..............

Lighten up mate. I put a smiley on the end to make it come across as a joke. Everyone makes mistakes, don't worry about it

still cross and didn't see the smiley face - apologies - going to dig my boots out after listening to that dross.

Someone said to me yesterday was I going - said no, as the last time I saw us win there, Jeff King scored twice FFS.

It is going to be a bad weekend AGAIN - be ok on Monday.

Have a bevvie mate, the lazy fuckers won't be worrying one jot about me thee or anyone else for that matter. We'll still be here when they've long gone. I don't usually say it but UTB and keep the chin up pal.

 

[Fulwood Blade]

bottle of white in the fridge as we speak - fuck the red for now !

UTB

 

[SB_90]

I would go 1/2 regulars 1/2 reserves with 3 big hitters in midfielders & strikers on the bench just in case

To be honest mate ...... the way I feel at the moment ...... I think it would be a great match to boycott, just to make a point to the players & the management that we're sick of the crap they're turning out week after week.
