[Stevo]

Currently 7 points clear of 4th place

And 10 points clear of 11th place !!!

Preston going to push players fwd.

As such Doyle on for Mcburnie, to pack the midield.

Khadra on for Berge, (Berge has played well but need to keep them on back foot with Khadras pace)

 

[originaltrueblade]

When we are on the back foot…….Nidaye

 

[Tom Bott]

How long will it take Hecky until he realizes he's got this one wrong

 

[10-0 win]

No easy games,keep digging in. Iliman,some player!!!

 

[robbiez666]

We're lucky to go in a goal up. There's not been that much in it but they've looked stronger and more determined across the pitch. McBurnie nowhere near good enough at holding the ball up or retaining possession. Brewster has had next to nothing. Ndiaye took his goal really well but playing to far up and not tracking all the way back. Whiteman should have done a lot better after he let him go. Berge is deep but then when he does go forward and loses the ball there's a huge gap behind him and he is so slow chasing back. Basham has put in two good challenges but aside from that has been really sloppy. RND not much better. Fortunate to go in one up but we have to plug the middle. There's far too much room for Preston to run in to between midfield and defence. Bash and RND have to stop taking mad gambles as well. We need to start winning these person battles or they will score.

Yup that’s why we are leading 1-0
Clear of 3rd place by 7 points
And top goalscorers
It’s like Kevin Keenan’s logic
I don’t mind conceding 5 as long as we score 6

 

[Tom Bott]

And 10 points clear of 11th place !!!

Nearly two leagues clear of the Wendy

Though I bet we don't take 17000 away to QPR.

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Definitely living dangerously but great individual goal. It was vital we scored first against these as they haven't given much away so far this season.

 

[Belvedere Blade]

Struggling Baggies leading @ Norwich at half time. COME OM WBA

That's how I see it, we definitely don't deserve to be in front but could easily be 2 up?? Fab goal from Ndiaye.
Norwood was terrible when he blazed it high after Ndiaye chance, we had loads in box and he had time for a more controlled shot or could have picked someone out.
Decision now for Hecky, does he bring Doyle on for more control in midfield

 

[originaltrueblade]

Doyle for Brewster and Khadra for McBurnie that should do it

 

[Belvedere Blade]

If Utd can get a 2nd goal than surely that will Kill the game as PNE have struggled to score goal so far this season

I think Hecky has been reading all the threads on here where he has been criticised for not being atticking enough in away games....

 

[Jan Age]

You are.

Are we playing well overall or are we just a goal up from a neat 30 second piece of play?

 

[Nade]

Could someone DM me details for what IPTV subscription I'd need to buy to be able to watch Blades games on it?

Sick of Securely.Live not turning up. Happy to pay for a subscription.

 

[Sheffsteel]

A factor is that PNE have worked incredibly hard to close us down.
Surely their players will start to tire and we’ll have more space to play our game.

Still looks like there’s moe goals in this game.
PNE still look a good positive side but Fodderingham still hasn’t had a single save to make.
We look like the team more likely to score. Whilst it stays 1-0 can see Khadra being a really effective late sub.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

He's Norwegian.

We are witnessing this years Champions

2 nill to the BLADES. Come on you BLADES

 

[Belvedere Blade]

McBurnie scores again for BLADES

 

[Sheffsteel]

Agree. PNE actually look a good side but it’s all huff and puff from them.
Loads of attacking from PNE but never looking like scoring.

We’ve defended brilliantly as Fodders has rarely touched the ball.
We‘ve also not had many attacks but could have scored 4….we have far more quality than PNE.

Pleased with the McBurnie goal because it was a Billy Sharp poachers style goal.

 

[Blade58]

Come on

 

[10-0 win]

Should be home and dry now.

 

[Iceybabey]

Nozza, don't slow down there lad ffs!

 

[Boxer Blade]

Just pleased that Lester and McCall are on the pitch side to manage the team

 

[Sheffsteel]

1st shot on target from Preston, took them 83 minutes to make Wes pull off a good reflex save.

 

[The Hecky Flecky Shake]

Sander makes things happen further up the pitch, leave him there.
