[T-Blade]

Commentators just said, the difference is Bournemouth have a plan and Blades don't. And that it looks like a lack of effort and will to win from.us. sums it up.

The first time I thought a woman commentator was actually talking sense

 

[Harry's Game]

One word ….. embarrassing

 

[Superblades]

No doubt his post match interview will be complete bollox from him. “I thought we was in the game and looked comfortable until it went to 2-0” or some other shite.

 

[Colombia Blade]

Commentators saying our players don't seem like they care.

Osula MoM for me

 

[Barnette]

Handed Bournemouth the match on a plate in the first half. Gave them the initiative without even raising a glove.
Surprise surprise - we lose. Unwatchable at times.

As supporters are we supposed to accept this?

 

[Stockholm]

At least the pigs lost….meh
What a shit show again

 

[Colombia Blade]

 

[Thrice]

All the confidence built in the last two games will be gone now. This was a must win, or at the very least a must not lose game. I can't see the team coming back from this.

 

[Fatlad666]

Gone by 6pm please

 

[GKhantRebel]

4 point gap to 17th and 7 points to 16th!

Can easily see Burnley beating us, and then there's a horrible run before facing Luton who will have no fear.

This is looking grim.

My only ambition currently is to get past the 11 points...

 

[KiwiBlabe]

Was that Courtney Swetnam-Kirk?

IWhoever it was, was absolutely spot on with her analysis particularly of the Blades 'effort' today.

Yes, she was good all game. Said early on we didn't know whether we were pressing or not. Summed us up well, but anyone can see that we are dire.
It's really odd when Osborn comes on and along with a 19 year old they look easily the most composed Blades players.
That was as dire a game that I have endured in my time. Didn't even raise a murmur when we scored.

 

[JJ Sefton]

It’s a fucking disgrace.

 

[Aston max]

 

[KiwiBlabe]

Luton look streets ahead of us. Desire and organisation make them have a plan which they execute as a team

 

[Revolution]

Finished with Fleck, Norwood and Osborn on the field. They weren’t good enough 3 years ago.

The owner has little money and has wasted what little he has.

The manager is so far out of his depth at this level. That was a tactical disaster.

The players are on the whole not good enough, but are collectively playing worse than their actual level.

We can’t change the owner or the players now. I would like the manager gone at least, today preferably.

 

[Jan Age]

Midfield is woeful

 

[KiwiBlabe]

The manager is so far out of his depth at this level. That was a tactical disaster.

The players are on the whole not good enough, but are collectively playing worse than their actual level.

This is a perfect summary of where we are.
The lack of heart and desire is depressing.

 

[CoatesyBlade]

Well… that’s the season over. The management team and the players alike have shown this afternoon that relegation is a certainty.
Pathetic!

 

[Steve.C]

No announcement yet?

 

[adiosmiamigo]

No announcement yet?

Not gone yet?

 

[Gaini Blade]

Our recent improvement has been down to sheer effort and we didn't get that today.

Hecky can't seem to motivate these players.

New manager please.

 

[HarryHaslam]

No announcement yet?

Well our owner has been too busy tweeting about Al Hilal FC as our game finished so not sure he will have checked our result yet.

 

[CambridgeshireBlade]

Having to watch by stream cos im away with work at the moment, makes it even harder with a co-comm who sounds like a female Baxendale.

All my diversity and inclusion training went out the window when I heard that bint bleating

Gone by 6pm please

You don't really believe that?

She talks to much !!

 

[Espania blade]

The only two constants next week will be, Heck'y will still be here and Norwood will still be our "midfield general"

 

[adiosmiamigo]

It's the "Blades way".

 

[Harry's Game]

“Albert, remember when I said selling Ndiaye might set off a chain reaction that could destroy the club?”




“Yes”


”I think it did”

 

[Flumps]

Oof fuck me. I didn't post it on here to tempt fate but I dreamt Thursday night we lost 4-1, almost stuck a tenner on it at 33:1, glad I didn't now.

Small... Victories?
