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

[Bladebri]

We need to be big boys at home and men away

 

[Numpty's Dusty Ruts.]

Are they Wednesday in disguise ??

Arrogant twats !

I wish they were Wednesday in disguise on the pitch. We'd be home and dry!!

 

[VM198]

Blades well capable of a win but must be at their best.
Thank you Roy, hopefully two more to go,

 

[UTB]

It’s nice for once to not be favourites, turn up like last week and we’re in with a big shout. Hope they end up eating humble pie, would love the arrogance to backfire on them. We have a front three in Yaya , MGW, and Ndiaye that are clicking and peaking at the right time they will be fired up and can be a match for anyone in this form. Go there with a two goal lead we are more than capable of defending that.

 

[metalblade]

Chirpy cunts.

 

[gordoncharles]

Blunts, eh? How droll.

 

[Speedracer]

Thanks Roy.

Fuck 'em, arrogant twats, they are a good side & I am not over confident, but I believe if we click we will be too strong for them.

 

[Champagneblade]

They’re certainly the best side we’ve played this season, in my opinion.

Luton and Huddersfield are the worst and brought out the worst in us.

So for those reasons you’d simply want to play Luton or Huddersfield.

However, it’s not that simple and the fact that Forest we’re well placed to take 2nd but finished 4th can also be telling on how their state of mind is. But I don’t think it will matter.

Forest are a good side, they’ve proved they can handle pressure during those cup games and they are a dangerous side when they attack. But they’re not unbeatable. I’m not sure why so many of their fans are so confident.

It’s two legs, yes they have the home advantage second leg but they have to be on their game tomorrow otherwise it could make the 2nd leg very difficult for them.

I’m not confident but I’m also not thinking we will get smashed either. We have to start strong. The back 3 is settled, Steven’s coming back to form and fitness is a big boost as is the possibility of Baldock coming in. I’m not confident with Ozzy generally, but more so at right back as he seems more switched on and does the simple things better.

Norwood, fleck and Berge are doing well, though if it’s warm I think Fleck and Berge might suffer, so Hourihane might be a good replacement.

Not worried about MGW and Ndiaye, but they have to take the big chances when they come

You say they handled pressure in the Cup games. But I would say that if you enter into a cup game against higher opposition then the pressure is completely off. Yes there might be moments in the game you hold your nerve and don't err, but entering a game with some degree of expectation they couldn't deliver the result (against Bournemouth).

Looks like exactly what we are saying about them.
Anyone for penalties at the City Ground ?!!!

 

[Snowflake]

Thanks Roy.

Fuck 'em, arrogant twats, they are a good side & I am not over confident, but I believe if we click we will be too strong for them.

You are sounding like them !

 

[Sandygate Blade]

A mixture of arrogance and over confidence. Sound very much like our city neighbours.

 

[Constantly Optimistic...]

If we keep the momentum going we currently have, then we will blow the scabs away first leg. 3-0 imo. As long as we turn up like we did against Fulham. I think we will. Dressing room looking good at the moment. Remember, Fulham fans thought they would demolish us. Forest have fizzled last couple of games.

 

[Gyp the blade]

The Wednesday of the Championship. Hope we smash them, cheers Roy!

You mean The Wednesday fans of the championship Sloth n his crew will get put in their place today. Mgw,iliman n sander will rip them a new one UTB

“given the Premier League stands to save £30m or so if SUFC go through, i wouldn’t put it past them to tell the ref to favour the Blades…”

Gotta laugh at bollox like this!

 

[Karaoke Blade]

Is it too late to say "Wankers"?

 

[Bladesince59]

Tossers would rather play us than Luton? As good at judging the opposition as Putin.

 

[SwissBlade]

Given the first half… it seems that they were right. We were lucky to go in 0-1 down, could easily have been 0-4. We were far too slow first half and they absolutely did us every time on the counter getting numbers forward.

Half time team talk, let’s take off our ice skates and put some studs in our boots. Except flecky, I know he slipped but he’s lucky to be on the pitch still after the slip/ lunge with both feet

Going to miss the post match view as most comments are about the second leg so will include them in the next pre match view
