First!

 

[TomHeffernan]

Woohoo!! It’s the highlight of my life!

 

[snb69]

Lots of good comments there. Cheers Roy

 

[Nesh Blade]

Cheers Roy. Going to Manchester to watch Dem Bladies vs Man Citeh in the FA Cup, then off to the pub for this one. Could we have an upset in the early afternoon and then trounce Wrexham in the evening? Here's hoping

Great comments and then a Man City fan....

"Not the best draw we could of got tbf, the smaller club in Steeltown , for huge city their support is only good if doing okay, which they are at mo otherwise bang average, squad depth not great, if they rest 5 players we will do em at home..horrible club whose Risk supporters don’t like us either it seems after being humiliated in Portugal according to a few fans chat columns !!"

Hiding to nothing this one, should win but it's expected and if we don't we look like a bunch of mugs. Hopefully we give them nothing to get excited about, don't want a Hollywood script in this game!

“if the team want extra motivation they should visit their message board, more arrogance than even Coventry.
Sheffield United are doing the same as Coventry in underestimating us and disrespecting our history as probably the greatest giant killers of the FA Cup"

Really? Id say we're being realistic. We know it will be tough, theyll be up for it and theyve made the Racecourse a fortress.

have they been on porktalk by accident?

The cameras will be all over this one. They'll be hoping it's going to be their big episode in series 2.
Hopefully it ends with sad music and Rob pretending to cry with his son

It'll be the other pondlife message boards, not here, as we're certainly not "expecting" to win at all. The whole UK will be rooting for a Wrexham win, and the BBC will be fawning all over them. Might switch on around 15 seconds before kick off.

"if we make the game as physical as possible and try to disrupt them getting into a rhythm we can nick it off a set piece."

I don't think so, lads. Physical toughness is expected at Sheffield United, its not like a bunch of Chelsea academy boys turning up who've never been put on their arse in their life. Try and play that game, and we will play it right back at them, but better.

Cheers Roy.

Won't be a walk in the park this one. They obviously don't know that the transfer non-payments are linked to our takeover.

Most on there seem knowledgeable, but the odd one with the reference to our attendance hasn't got a clue. When was the last time our average attendance was poor? 99/2000 perhaps.

"Forde has been a real attacking threat in the last two games winning throws high up the pitch"

Mmmm. Maybe not as tough a tie as I first thought!

Every view from we get post-match is fans whinging how physical we are

Cheers Roy. They started brightly, then tailed off to the usual nonsense.

Just like "Leeds - Take us Home" all over again.

 

[BigBed]

Cheers Roy, some knowledgable fans on there, but lots of bell ends that don't bother to actually find out details before posting inane and stupid things.
Oh well, hope Jebbo and Bogle destroy them and bring them down to earth with a bump!
"Smallest club in the steel city" v Smallest club in Wales, bring it on!

COYRAWW!

 

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

Not sure we’re being arrogant bar one or two posters. Wrexham are a decent outfit doing really well in their league but we’re doing really in The Champ so we ought to beat them. Is that arrogant to say?

 

[Yogi]

If it’s a draw can we forget about the replay and just have Tozer and JLT see who can throw it further to decide the win?

 

[Rodders]

First. I have a lot of people on ignore.

 

[CPB]

I get it they are rightly up for it and excited. They would have wanted a big prem club for sure but like many of them have said we are better than drawing a Bournemouth or Brentford etc. and to be honest a good handful of Prem clubs! And rightfully so.

This whole arrogance thing is a bit far fetched. There is no doubting that an upset is a possibility. Wrexham are now a L2 club in all but name and one that is currently on a v.good run with the whole club driving in the same direction. We may be a Prem club in 5 months too!
However for us it will depend on what team is put out and whether the team put out is up for the battle and that they can be coherent enough to establish our game on them. If they do then I'm sorry but when there is about 3 divisions in class between us it will bear out. If we don't though they deffo have a chance!

For comparison had we drawn Man City or Arsenal we would have to be at the top of our game and they would need to have an off day for us to get something. It's entirely possible but the odds are in their favour with the class of players they have.

On Sunday same applies but the odds should be in our favour.

Chinese takeaway comments

Sweet followed by sour.

Thanks Roy

 

[Charlieblade]

Pleased you saved a few ‘biters’ for the end.

27 posts in and not a sheep shagger joke to be seen. I will get the ball rolling.
