I'm working on a modern Britain where we work in km and litres.

Yeah, warm weather training. All about replenishing the nutrients after a tough day training... the best way is through lager or Rioja

Wembley. In an FA Cup Final.

Or winning a league title at the Theatre of Rust.

Has to be the FA Cup Final. For those of us of a certain age, this was THE match to be involved in, the main event of the season. The Blades being there, and with no religious element in it for me, but Abide with Me might just see slightly moist eyes for SEB.

When we pulled the goal back against Spurs at BL in the league cup I really thought we would do it. Genuinely thought that after all these years this was it. Not the FA Cup but at my age I thought "this'll do". When they scored, and the bloke next to me and I looked at each other - similar age - and I saw in him what I felt, I thought that was going to be it, but no, it's never going to be. I was gutted, more so than the Hull game.

The semi at Wembley has devalued things somewhat, so from that point of view the League Cup has more kudos. I was in The Maple Leaf at Covent Garden with a large group of the London Blades, when the 2nd goal went in the noise was astounding, matched only by the deafening silence of their goal. Plenty of us were old enough to know a once in a lifetime event had gone.

More Jennifer Lawrence for me and the great thing is I would only miss a couple of minutes of the game.

As old man Clough used to say , "it only takes a second........." And in my case it would be even less. Coz i wouldn't want to miss any of the action......
 
I reckon this looks cosy enough

Genuinely sone backwater European town. Middle of nowhere, Blades take over for a day and befriend the locals and all the fans of the other team.

Regardless of result, everyone of both nationalities stays up til 6am drinking the local beer and spirits.

That's the dream. Keep your European cup finals, Nou Camps and diving prima donnas.

Like them hazy crazy days in the Anglo Italian Cup . :D
 



First of all you have to cross out certain places where the locals will be out like a red rag to a bull:

Former Yugoslav republics - psycho ultras
Russia - plain psychos
Poland - ditto Russia
Rest of eastern Europe - hooligan wannabes
Turkey - get stabbed
Italy - police hooligans
France - err, how to put this, persons of a certain religious order
Spain - too much sun
South America - not a good idea, thanks Clarkson
Africa - not too keen on colonialists, its all our fault for the mess they're in.....
etc etc

There's not many places where we could visit without undergoing a life-threatening experience. I think if we ever qualified for Europe it would ideally have to be Germany with decent beer, great stadiums and civilised natives.

(Apart from at Bramall Lane of course) Leicester's fans dreaming of the draw for the CL QF made me wonder:

Where when and who against would you most want to see an exhibition match for our first team?

Most grand stadium we've played at is probably Wembley, I'll go first, I would choose:

vs. Sao Paulo at the Maracana in the early summer to hopefully celebrate the conclusion of this season. One of the most iconic football places in the world, looked stunning at the 2014 WC and would love to visit Brazil one day, and it would be a competitive yet entertaining match.

Hopefully one day it will become a reality!

Do we bat first or bowl on that pitch ?
Sadly fallen in to disrepair .... some dispute or other as to who pays for the upkeep I think, bit of a shame really.

No interest in a tippy tappy and diving bore fest in Spain. Although now that Adkins has gone, Wilder has us playing proper progressive football, so it might not be so bad

Yeah, boring. That's how I'd describe Barca. :)

Somewhere in Athens.

I can't put into words how much I adore Greece and its people.

I saw England play Greece in Athens . Not a night for the feint of heart but very enjoyable . Watching the Blades play there would be a very lively encounter but one to savour .

As for a dream destination to see the Blades play . Anywhere in Europe would do for me . I've only seen us play twice out there . Cesena in Italy in the Anglo Italian Cup and Rotterdam for a friendly . Both trips were absolutely brilliant .

It's Spanish football in general. Take the fella that head butted Vardy the other day. A handbags incident and regardless of Vardy's reaction the lad flicked the nut towards Vardy, so it's a 100% red. Get off the pitch, cock.

Instead it ponces about trying to get to Vardy and then goes to the media about it.

Even withou the tippy tappy shite football they play grating on me, they know how to turn a game of football into a lot of fucking about. It would be more pleasurable to watch without the shite like this
 
I would absolutely love a pre-season friendly at the Leith San Siro.

I love a pre-season away trip with the Blades, the best ones were the Cornwall tours when we had Colin in charge.

Unlike the blood and thunder of the Premiership, where men are men and no one cheats. I mean no Englishman (Deli Ali) would just throw himself to the ground would he? It's shit I agree but lets not pretend that in Spain or Italy Johnny Foreigner is to blame for it all. I saw someone stamp on Ibrahimavic the other day. He responded by elbowing him straight in the kite. Top stuff.

I don't care too much for the Premier league

Actually, the Barcelona thing would piss me off... they don't seem to cheer right in Spain when they score, seems more of an 'ohhh' or some other such shite instead of a proper 'get the fuck in there'

And calling the cunting place bartherona and asking for a cervetha is just shite.

I went on a stadium tour of the nou camp with my missus. You get to go in the commentary box so I pretended I was covering Barcelona v Sheffield united while she filmed me. I can't find the video on my phone or I'd upload it. The Spaniards had no idea what I was going on about. "cross comes in and its SHARRRRRPPPPPP! A GREAT Consolation goal as the referee blows for full time, Barcelona 9 Sheffield united 1"
