I thought I was reading an analysis of all our performances last season. I understand their pessimism, but they have the advantage of the Manager of the Month curse

 

[sheff_blade90]

bronze medal

 

[Ridgeway Blade]

Second then. I just hope they are right and we score a few goals rather than a tense 1-0.

 

[1973Blade]

I agree with the comment that it is inevitable that Cooper will let his first goal at Bramall Lane for us tomorrow. It is going to be closer than many think.

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Cautious optimism meets a sense of woe. I like it.

 

[Crabstick]

I mean Bramnall Lane was originally a cricket ground, maybe they’ve still got the scoreboard there.

 

[Dkc]

Confident bunch aren't they?

 

[Harry's Game]

too despondent for my liking . It will not be as easy as many think

 

[GreasyChipBeattie]

“It’s written in the stars. Cooper hasn’t conceded a goal at Bramall Lane in 8 games, all wins, so his former club scores against him and grabs a win or draw.
Football is full of ironies like this.”

Nope, I'm afraid it's not!

“Maybe over confidence will creep into Sheffield Utd and complacency will take over. Our players realise this is happening, take offence and produce a Roy of The Rovers type performance!”

Nope, I'm afraid it won't!

 

[biggiesablade]

Good work that Roy cheers.

 

[Ridgeway Blade]

Second then. I just hope they are right and we score a few goals rather than a tense 1-0.

Pipped at the post for a medal. I was second when I typed it. Feel how a 4th place feels now - missed out on the podium!

 

[Geordie Blade]

Style of play:
Attacking down the right.

I'm liking this. Plymouth - you don't need to mark Burrows or Hamer. Everything goes down the other side.

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

Wow, feel the optimism!!!

 

[John Street West Terrace]

They’ll sit very deep against us .. 1-0 Blades and record for consecutive home wins & clean sheets

 

[Fatlad666]

Love the scoreboard comment , Morning Roygbiv thank you for my coffee read. Keep up the excellent work sir

 

[Stretch]

It's quite unnerving (yet hilarious) to see a fanbase so utterly convinced that we are going to hammer them.

0-1 incoming.

 

[Flumps]

We've only scored more than 2 in maybe 1 or 2 games? Nothing suggests we'll smash them but this should be a comfortable win for us.

Agree with the comments about Cooper though, very likely and if I'm honest I'd find it a little funny (as long as we won) that record has to go at some point but I love how long it's been going.

I don't like the comments, honestly it sounds like they're playing Arsenal tomorrow, not United.

 

[JayGreen17]

I think we’ve been riding our luck the last few and performances haven’t been great, with the results masking the performances, I’m really hoping that we approach this as if they’re a top 6 side as this has banana skin written all over it.

 

[Gimli]

“I mean Bramnall Lane was originally a cricket ground, maybe they’ve still got the scoreboard there.”



Also gets a point for a misspelling of Bramall Lane that I haven’t seen before.

 

[BladeInIreland]

They are going to win aren't they?

 

[BalticBlade]

I feel sad for them after reading all that. I hope they win, they need it more than us.

Cheers Panchero!

 

[Champagneblade]

Well. Nobody is going to accuse them of being cocky!

We made plenty of such comments last year so I know how they feel!

 

[Flumps]

I'll do a deal with the championship now. Top 3 all lose their next game and Plymouth win.

However I don't recall anyone affording us such sympathy last season. It was all laughs and finger pointing. Those comments could almost be cut, pasted and be mistaken for our comments last season. There's still 90 minutes to play so they shouldn't be so defeatist, anything can happen and even we won a game last season so...

 

[diode_blade]

Ta Roy, bad news though, coffee shop has run out of mugs......

 

[Argentinemanager]

Cheers roy, sounds like they read our forum last year, a big up for the 1000 who are coming up, just before christmas as well, top fans

Yep fair play, pain in the arse of a journey.

Rooney clapping some timber on, he’s morphing into Steve Evans.

Cheers Roy

“Sheffield, keep all your Nans locked in the house, Rooney is coming to town, the fat granny shagger!”

Why didn’t you put this one in the quotes Roygbiv ?

Cheers Roy!
