Roy's View From... Pre-Match View From Burnley

[Edgar Allan Poo]

They've done their homework.

Could be a Christmas cracker!

 

[ben1987]

Surprised they’re commenting on our spending when they gave kompany eleventy billion to throw around

 

[BigBed]

No mention of the USS OHIO pulling into port, probably as its been overshadowed by HMS PISS THE LEAGUE!

Oh well, I expect a tough game Boxing day, both teams have a similar way about them, let's just hope we carry on our good form, and hopefully a new owner bumper display and a 4 goal win!
Suppose we will have to see what Santa brings!!!

Cheers Roy, and a Merry Christmas to you and yours, and to all you Blades!!
Have a great day, and see you all at the Lane on Boxing Day!!!!

UTB, COYRAWW!!!

 

[Snowflake]

Merry Christmas to all of you!

"Got a feeling Sheffield United will win the league comfortably. Every chance we could be between 7 and 10 points behind them by next Sunday." "Sheffield United will be attempting to set a league record of 10 successive clean sheet wins at home when they face us on Boxing Day.We are the top side...

Very sensible and insightful. Well matched forums so hopefully a really good match.

 

[VonBrysonsExpress]

Merry Christmas Roy, it's always a joy to read the pre-match views

 

[Houston_Blade]

Merry Christmas Roygbiv

Balanced set of comments really, I have a bad feeling about us against decent teams so not hopeful.

 

[Aston max]

Merry Xmas mate, I'll take a 1-0 win as scrappy and horrible as you like or 0-0 bore draw

 

[wak1889]

I never post on this particular thread but the Burnley comments have to be applauded they are very well researched and knowledgeable, and probably know more about our squad than our new owners or in fact the previous one

 

[KOPPO]

hi ROY very interesting to read from burnley view they are spot on WE BLADES WILL WIN THE LEAGUE thanks for the info merry xmas.all the best to you and your family, from pasta mam kop blade.chow..,,utb..

 

[Blackheath Blade]

Confidence in abundance from those comments but fair do's to them, I think most are respectful at what we've achieved this season.
I anticipate that Coops may be picking the ball out of his goal at last but I think we'll beat Burnley by the odd goal.
Thanks as always Roy and a Happy Christmas to you.

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Sorry, I can't take any comments seriously from a fanbase full of inbreds who have huge ears and 6 fingers on each hand.

 

[jt64]

Apart from the ones who think we spent big (if only!) it’s pretty accurate views

Well, we don't spend big relative to our peers and never have, no matter what many of the Brewster (and earlier McBurnie) haters think, but you need to be looking at things in terms of total cost of ownership, not just transfer fees. O'Hare will likely be costing more over the course of his contract than someone like Burrows or Cooper will, normalising for position obviously. JRS, Souttar, Gilchrist etc are going to be costing us some amount of money per week

 

[Speedracer]

Thanks Roy, & merry Christmas to you.

I enjoyed reading that, mostly well thought & reasoned comments, well done Burnley fans.

 

[BarcaBlade]

Merry Christmas to all of you!

And to you, Roy. And everyone else for that matter.

 

[metalblade]

One or two knowledgable comments and quite a few that don't have a clue about us, I don't doubt if they hadn't been relegated with us they would be crying parachute payments

 

[Bladeric]

All the best Roy,keep em coming

Cheers Panchero!

Sing something simple to deluded twats.

 

[XH536]

They don't half go on about which players are better, or more often, worse than theirs.
Gerit in't box Blades then't onion bag.
1-0 Blades.
Thank you Roy.

 

[Jan Age]

4 points from the next 4 games and I will be happy.

The season won’t be defined by results against the top 4 or 5.

It will be about consistent results against all others.

HMS Shithouse FC

Merry Xmas

Here’s Roy.

Cannot stand Burnley.

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Thanks Roy, interesting read as ever.

Keep up the good work in 2025, onto promotion !

 

[flashinblade1889]

Cheers and Merry Xmas Royston by the way who’s this O’Hara chap?

[Charlieblade]

Whatever they want to believe about us makes no difference. This is Wider v Parker. Who has the most experienced and capable manager? We do of course.

Thanks again Roy.

 

[Auld Reekie Blade]

If I sort the league with who has the most points then we are top and 4 points ahead of Burnley

Cheers Roy, Happy Christmas and thanks for all tour efforts throughout the year.

 

[John Street West Terrace]

In fairness I don’t think it’s a bad assessment about us with exception odd bell end comment but I’ve seen a lot worse .
Think it’s got draw written all over it today , Parker has a record of producing pragmatic teams that get the job done & that’s the same path the Wilders following this season to , remember his Bournemouth team coming & grinding out a draw when we were flying under Hecky 3 seasons back .
With the lack of talk about Campbell I’m assuming he’s out still ? And that will be a big miss against better opposition in terms of his pace & form prior to injury

 

[mattbianco1]

Love how one of them went to the effort of loading up FIFA to compare all the players pace

 

[Bennyand the Blades]

In order to brake that record, I'm betting this game for some will be as boring as the last home game.
All though, if they do score all bets are off......
