Please elaborate

He's half mammal, half mammal.

 

[Seun]

Settled!

 

[knowsnowt]

FUCKING HELL!

 

[Tom Bott]

What were we saying about Hamer ?

 

[SUFCinks]

I never doubted Hamer

 

[Belvedere Blade]

GOAL Blades 2 PNE 0

 

[Shadota]

Was just about to he critical of the start to the 2nd half, but fuck me that's a peach of a finish!

 

[Aston max]

Gtfi

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

He's half mammal, half mammal.

I like him more already.

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

My word

 

[Shadota]

Who predicted a goalkeeping blunder?

 

[LudlamBlade]

Why? Start of the season. Could be several draws. You get the win you're on 1 point but with a positive GD. You would be on top of every club that doesn't win. So minimum 12th place without any draws. Just 2 games ending in a draw has you in the top 10.

1 draw=2 teams end up below you. I know it's a big ask but 6 games ending in a draw puts you in 6th.

Have a bit of positivity

Positivity?

That sort of talk will get you banned round here sunshine

 

[Crabstick]

Reyt chip

 

[Chris the Blade]

Jolly hockey sticks

 

[thehet]

Are you Grbic in disguise?

 

[Belvedere Blade]

 

[knowsnowt]

Tbh Hamer has been a bit bob, but that was pure quality.

 

[Belvedere Blade]

[Sheffsteel]

Gilchrist looks a class act

Agree, very composed......however it's been far too easy for the defence.
Agree with the comments about PNE.....they have no confidence and hardly even tried to attack.....it's been surprisingly easy.

We could have played Grbic in goal tonight and he'd have kept a clean sheet.

 

[RWE]

We look really good imo but Preston look fucking wank

 

[MayorOJC]

Filthy from Souza there

 

[Tom Bott]

He's half mammal, half mammal.

Mammal hands ?

 

[Keen Blade]

Cmon Blades , let's bag a few and build your confidence

 

[Yakblade]

The worst unchallenged shot on goal in the history of football aside, Souza has been brilliant tonight.

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

This football is lovely to watch

 

[Berkshire Blade]

That first sentence is tongue in cheek right?
If his frame isn’t suited to the premier league better watch out for Barcelona and all as it’ll fit in Spain

I ain't particularly worried about a premier league side coming in for him as he's pretty small. Like you say overseas probably more likely to be sniffing eventually

He's not going anywhere. He's just bought a house in Woodseats

 

[knowsnowt]

Preston are like a silent disco that doesn't have any headphones.
