On Friday the 13th I went into macdonalds my receipt was number 13 I then noticed I was sat at table 13 so I know the game is not on the 13

 

[Argentinemanager]

The negative nelly in me is expecting a reverse this weekend, rightly or wrongly i seem to think they do well against us. But im hoping im wrong . Expecting them to sit back and that doesnt appear to be our strong point this year we seem better on the counter attack. After last year though anything but a hammering is a bonus

 

[Constantly Optimistic...]

3-0 to the Blades, nailed on!

 

[Gin&Juice]

Think we’ll not win, it’s all too United for me.

Sheffield United Bingo:

1) Michael Cooper clean sheet
2) Gus Hamer goal contribution goal/assist
3) A Bramall Lane Brawl
4) Kieffer Moore to underperform his xG
5) Vini Souza to have most tackles (attempted) out of both teams
6) Souttar to win 100% of his aerial duels

See how many of these come to fruition

 

[Harry's Game]

No Billy Sharp to wind up the Derby fans unfortunately

 

[WORKSOPBLADE]

Really like Paul Warne.

Respectful, humorous, knowledgeable, factual and straightforward.

...
7) Chris wilder to grimace and gurn throughout the pre & post match interviews

8) commentators state olli blaster will be playing in the PREM next season if he continues to play well

9) referee decides to let play go only blowing up for a foul if bones are broken or gbh is committed

10) or... Referee stops play every 10 seconds because a player looked at another "in an aggressive manner" note: the choice of option 9 or 10 is made at the pre-match coin toss.

11) opposition defence try play out from the back, make a horrible mess of it and gift united several goals!

12) Rian Brewster comes on as a sub in the 89th minute and scores an unbelievable hat-trick in record time

13) half of the crowd go for a piss after 10 minutes



Utb!!!

Not certain but I think the only time this season we have sat back and hit em on the break was last Friday at Hull, we certainly didn't at Preston or at home to QPR or Watford.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Paul Coutts will be at the game this Saturday when we play Derby.

So give him a sing song.

Full wilder press conference

 

[Jon Bon II]

A neighbour is a Derby season ticket holder but couldn't get a ticket for the game, so I've invited him over to watch it on the box with me. There's little or no segregation in the front room and the cats will disappear faster than the Harehills police when someone sparks a lighter up next to a bus, if a stranger comes in. So at what point should I start bouncing up and down in front of the TV, with my arms outstretched? Or is that not the correct behaviour for refined countryside gentlemen?

If not posted already
"On the eighth minute of tomorrow’s match against Derby County, we ask fans to come together for a minute’s applause as we remember the life of Maddy Cusack. "

not comparing the two in anyway shape or form would also be a nice touch if something was done for Sachdev?

Sachdev has got injured sad as that is it's part and parcel of football .

Full wilder press conference

Wilder mentions how “we will strive to give 9 out of 10” for every game. I was thinking, why not 10 out of 10? But then I remembered, no matter what happens, Deadbat doesn’t give 10/10, EVER!

 

[Nick Jansky]

We will certainly see a change to the starting line up as one of the regulars is in a protective boot right now.

I’m going to guess Gus, but can you be less guessy for us?

 

[Nick Jansky]

I’m going to guess Gus, but can you be less guessy for us?

No, I can’t. That would make me as bad as Sunjihi. So no hints other than be prepared for changes.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Shush

 

[FriethBlade]

Should be a good atmosphere and close to a full ground.

Was feeling very positive until I saw Nicks post above

 

[Cappy]

No, I can’t. That would make me as bad as Sunjihi. So no hints other than be prepared for changes.

Plural?

 

[Nick Jansky]

Plural?

Only one injury that I know of.

 

[Uganda Blade]

Only one injury that I know of.

But didn't CW say "We're all fit" in his presser?
Or is this something that's happened since?
