" if we don't win then *** **** ***** **!"
 
Nice solid away win would do wonders right now. Settle the jitters, reaffirm the belief, inject a bit of Nigelesque positivity into the fanbase just when it's needed, solidify the top 6 position...

Just do it Blades.
 
Yess! UTB!
Kazarreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, how are you?

On the plus side it's not snowing! God that was a bad night

1-3 to the mighty Blades, this city is red and white

Billy, Fish Matty off the bench
 
Blades: Howard, Freeman, Basham, Flynn, Coutts, Sharp, Baxter, Collins, Sammon, K Wallace, Edgar.
Subs: Done, McEveley, Campbell-Ryce, Reed, Long, Kennedy, Adams.

Very strong bench if Coutts/ Flynn / Sammon don't perform.
 
That unfinished bit of one of their stands would make a nice little terrace
 

What I like about Adkins is that if we're drawing he won't have any qualms about sending in Adams, JCR and Done (in future games I see at least 2 of these being in our strongest XI) with 20-30 minutes to go. It's not all come together yet, injuries haven't helped, but it's already so much better to watch than the Clough days.

The Colchester and Bury results hurt, we really are just two or three players short through the middle of having a side that could walk it this year. Goalkeeper, centre half and central midfielder. But this isn't something we don't all already know. Disappointing if the board aren't staying true to their word regarding the Murphy money. I don't think they'll stick around if Adkins fails to get us up by 2017. And I don't think they have the required clout to get us up to the Premier League.
 
Wallace/Freeman just getting destroyed, opposition wingers too strong. Need more help from Coutts/Flynn
 
Crikey I didn't expect this at Vale, hope they sort it second half or the doom and gloom brigade will have a ball.
 
If we don't get played through or around, we get bullied (with our rigid 442). What a time to be a Blade!

Just hope Nige has got some of dem magic, positive substitutions up his sleeve (or we're heading for 1 win in 6 with not far off the worst defensive record in the league). The flair players/goalscorers are gonna have to dig us out of the shit again.

Right now its worse than it has ever been since we've been down here. We are as far away as ever. The only solution is to make sure we stay up this season and build an entire new squad next time out.
 
Don't think it's quite that bad Roy but I can't see us going up this season unless things change.

That's exactly how I feel right now.
We'll do well to stay up in this godforsaken shitty league. So exasperating it's unreal!!

Don't get me wrong I don't think we will go down but I dont think there's any chance we will go uo with this squad so we must make sure we rebuild in the highest division possible. The board are clueless so any hope they will stop the rot this or next season is blind optimism . We need to rely on the manager to build his own team with the little support he will get
