[North Riding Blade]

There's no point in being pissed-off pre-match. Why are people are acting like we've already lost?

Because thats what a lot of the members on here do. They then become a deafening silence if United turn it around. Or, gloat on their 'expertise' when they are proved right.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Even the most optimistic on here must be questioning this starting eleven. Maybe it's to confuse Lincoln as I doubt they are set up to play this lot.

 

[AWetFlannel]

Hamza has been absolutely shite at right back and Doherys legs have gone. So of our 2 right back cover players, which you rightly point out Wilder has wasted wages on, neither are fit for purpose and one looks like hes been completely bombed out.

So, to come back to the actual point, is it an outrageous disgrace that Hamza has been picked to start today?

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

So, to come back to the actual point, is it an outrageous disgrace that Hamza has been picked to start today?

I think it's a disgrace he's HAD to be picked there today.

 

[AWetFlannel]

I think it's a disgrace he's HAD to be picked there today.

Which would be to move the goalposts.

No it's not. That's just cheap and lazy argument.

Lots of the people, including myself, are giving reasoned arguments for lack of optimism and excitement.

What is your reason to be optimistic about the line up, apparent formation and form?

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Which would be to move the goalposts.

Yeah that's true. But we might score if we move them to the half way line.

 

[Sothall_Blade]

Plus ca change
Shit selections - favourites
Good players put of position
Brain dead formation
Brain dead tactics
STILL THE WORST manager in the history of SUFC
First time EVER enjoyed a football break away from this imbecilic crap
Just sack the vile ****
Biggest BS merchant outside of the ***** in 10 downing street

I can see one player out of position. The rest aren’t.

Do you really think Wilder is the worst manager in the history of SUFC?

A mind-boggling comment

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Yeah that's true. But we might score if we move them to the half way line.

"might" being the word!!

 

[Dkc]

No it's not. That's just cheap and lazy argument.

How about the fact that the bookies have had a look at both teams and have us as clear favourites to win?

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Your joking right?

 

[Corkblade]

Who would you have started RB?

Maybe the guy with 100s of premier league games and dozens of international caps at right back, the player he signed

 

[Champagneblade]

That’s an incredible selection.

 

[SB_90]

did Donovan run over Wilders dog or something. to be not chosen over chong

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Baldock tributes get me every time

 

[RossoDeltic]

Ok. On my way now

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

Ok. On my way now

You're late.

 

[RossoDeltic]

You're late.

If only. The vagaries of a text message arriving as I was about to begin typing! Trainspotting in London after the Gene gig last night!

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

This first 10 mins exactly what we are.

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Used the 3 week break well haven't we

 

[Jimmy Fleck]

this is what they’ve come up with after 3 weeks? Yeah thanks chris but you need to fuck off now.

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Sideways, backwards...

 

[Stevo71]

this is what they’ve come up with after 3 weeks? Yeah thanks chris but you need to fuck off now.

Oh dear

 

[Northernsoulblade]

Well it can only get better surely

 

[HackeyBlade]

Tanganga is fucking terrible

 

[paidsy]

We are going to have to change the manager whether people like it or not.

 

[Blades4life10]

Who in gods name can see the sun still shining out of wilders arse anymore do one while you still can & save the season from constant drab watches & the never ending excuses that its never his fault bloke is tedious

 

[Kenworthy’s Tash]

Wilder is done. Out of ideas, out of time

 

[Bladeulike]

20 minutes in and, if anything, it’s worse than before. A team completely unable to retain any possession of the ball and clueless about how to transition anywhere on the pitch. Tap, tap, sideways, lose the ball, foul the player. No passion, no energy, no clue Wtf have they been doing for three weeks?

 

[ChezVegasBlade]

Good to see that the international break hasn't interrupted our ability to pass to the opposition at every opportunity
