They were all pessimistic last year late on too before beating us easily.

Always been a reight bunch of moaners, I remember when we beat them 2-0 under Kendall at Filbert Street and there was a protest afterwards against Martin O'Neill who was in the process of getting them promoted and creating one of their best ever sides.
 
He definitely was. You can tell by his post being first. 🤔
I think what he's saying is that actually his post is post #2. I think it's 1889's polite way of saying "don't be a knob".
Personally, I find it intruiging why someone who's been registered since 2016 decides to post on just two occasions after 4 and a half years, 6 weeks apart, to make two one-word knob posts. 🤔🤷‍♂️
 
'A threat from set pieces'.

I really hate this stereotype going back to the Basset days. If anything we're a threat to ourselves from set pieces as we're shit at defending them and we generally get countered when we have one!
 



Why does someone every week say we're a threat from set pieces? Where does this myth even come from??
Don’t forget a lot of those commenting will have witnessed that rarest of species, the ‘McBurnie headed goal’, perhaps in their ignorance, they believe that it is a common occurrence 🤷🏻‍♂️
 
“I have no faith we will beat Sheffield United next weekend, it has the makings of bad day. They’ve not won, we have a long European trip before, they are a threat from set pieces etc… “
WTF has this guy been watching our set pieces never get past the first man.

We were the 3rd least threatening team from set pieces last season (only Watford and Norwich had a worse record), and we are the 4th least threatening this season (Leicester, Brighton and Fulham have yet to score from a set piece).

It's proper nonsense.

Probably cos we can't score from open play so if we're going score it's set pieces. Negate our set pieces, opposition get at least a draw, so score and they win.
Thanks Roy.
 
Thanks Roy!This is a strange one,from hideous pessimism (licking our lips AND bending them over? The mind boggles...)to the usual arrogance.
Not sure what to make of them and I need a sit down....
 
Thanks Roy

Its a shame Leicester have been on a bad run, they must be almost as desperate for a win as we are
But glad to see its we're not the only set of fans who completely lose faith after a few losses, despite having had 4 fantastic years
 
Apparently I wear fur lined boots ! I wonder where they are ,
 
It will click for us soon enough ,and we will have 3 teams below us before you know it .
We will finish top of the 4 team mini league....
And that will be fine by me 😀
Have a good weekend all.....
 
Dont know what they are so worried about,if the get thru the first 10 minutes without conceding they will be fine,i mean dolls face is always a threat at Bramall Lane.
 



No offence if you're from Leicester, but I've never met anyone from there who hasn't got a massive chip on their shoulder, honest! Let's hope it's a big splattering Greasy Chip Butty on their shoulders this Sunday.
