Has the red button appeared for people?

Working OK for me

If you’re struggling go via the sky menu rather than red button.
Select Sport > Featured and it’s there as an option.

Nope. Ours is just spinning

 

[Geordie Blade]

If we could finish off one-on-ones, we’d be on 108 points by now.

Did you do it from the Celtic-Rangers game?

On a stream just selecting red button

 

[KiwiBlabe]

Ndiaye is nearly raped every time he gets the ball and stays on his feet, not even a free kick. Their striker gets a little tug of the shirt, goes down and Egan booked. Shit reffing

 

[jono_t2000]

A rainy night in Huddersfield.

The Gods have already decided this will finish 0-0

 

[originaltrueblade]

Two sitters Jebbo

 

[Gretsch Blade]

Jebbo should be 2 up

 

[ThirdGenBlade]

I wish somebody would tell Gage that Udders only need a point. He must have said 20 times that they’ll have to come out some time they need to score! No they don’t Kevin!!

Impressive performance by us, we look a level (at least a division) above a nervous Huddersfield side whose only ambition seems to be to get a draw.
Been impressed with our inter play and passing, one of the best I've seen us play under Hecky style wise, even Berger is working hard and looks class.

I think that fact has set the tone of the match.

Huddersfield seem to be only focussed in gaining a 0-0, so we are totally dominating, we must have had 80% possession.
Not many clear chances though, as Huddersfield have parked the bus, just waiting for us to attack them, it's like watching a training session.

 

[232 Bramall Lane]

Would have been better if Hudds had needed to win.
They're sitting back happy for a 0-0 draw.
I'm not sure we're bothered enough to change that.

 

[originaltrueblade]

Bury these pile of shit Blades send em where they belong

 

[originaltrueblade]

Jebbo off McBurnie on very soon

 

[jalfie69]

Jebbo not for me in the prem, can’t keep missing chances like that.

 

[Gretsch Blade]

Get Billy on to finish them sitters and break the record

 

[Belvedere Blade]

Utd should at least be a goal up. Jebbo's missed some sitters in 1st half. Should of at least scored 1.

 

[Nightsweats]

Jebbo should be 2 up

His finishing needs a lot of work.

 

[BettingBlade]

Perfect game for Sharp this. We’re getting chances. He wont have to do much running. Just let him find the space. He’ll get hat-trick tonight

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

Great up to the final ball.

Need to cut jebbo some slack his running in behind, and movement is something we really don't have with our other strikers.

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Blades usually put their foot down in the second half. Let's go Blades!

 

[CoatesyBlade]

After watching that… I hope we beat these!
Get an early one 2nd half and I think that’ll lead to a couple more.
If we don’t then it’ll be more of the same and not one for the spectator.
As for entertainment, I’m loving the boys basically playing where they want to! Total football!

 

[JayGreen17]

Deffo win this, we’re dominating 72% possession, lovely play in the final third , just need that break, if we score they are gonna have to come out and I can see us getting a few.

 

[robbiez666]

Awful first half to watch. They're just letting us come on to them and I have no idea what on earth some of our players are doing.

Jebbo has missed 3 chances of different shades of easiness. Can't afford to be wasteful even at this level. Needs a season on loan starting every week. Only way a player will learn. A lame effort in a 1 on 1, a terrible attempt at a free header a few yards out and the one where he gets across his defender and doesn't really get anything on it. The rest of his game is way off tonight as well.

I have no idea what Furious is doing. He needs to be taken off if this isn't a tactic. I reckon you take him off anyway and put Bogle on. He's doing everything but giving us any space on the right. The wingbacks need to stand on the touchline in games like this. On the odd occasion he gets it on the right instead of putting a cross in he's turning back inside. We can't take extra touches in games like this.

I'd be tempted to play 3 at the back and put the wingbacks as wingers. We at least need to go to 4 at the back.

 

[jono_t2000]

Great up to the final ball.

Need to cut jebbo some slack his running in behind, and movement is something we really don't have with our other strikers.

Was just about to say, not too bothered about his finishing on this wet pitch. That can be taught. Getting into the right positions is the key and he has great instinct in doing that.

(That being said, i would say Osula is a better finisher)

 

[Nightsweats]

Great up to the final ball.

Goals win games. As said by others this is set up for Billy. Get him on at HT. Plus Doyle for Norwood,
