The last home game of the season! Not been a memorable one but I'll miss my visits to the Lane and roadtrips to away games!

 

[Houston_Blade]

This has the potential to win the prize for ‘the most meaningless mid-table fixture ever in the Championship’.

But I've already eaten 100 of my 1000 kit kats this morning to make me replica trophy to take to the Lane today!

Ah well, no point in stopping now I spose....

 

[United Aren't Back.]

Last time Preston were our final home game was 2023. Already promoted with Hecky. We won 4 1.

 

[Pintor75]

Like a few others, wouldn't be going if not for having a season ticket, never felt so low being a blade under present management

Ask Cheeky Blade, he might have some tin foil spare…

[ChipButtyBlade]

And our team was still pissed as the song went

And Sharp played more minutes than Jebbo, ensuring we learned nothing. Much like we will learn nothing today

This might be a meaningless fixture as most teams have to endure at the end of the any season .
I've followed the blades all over the country right down to the bottom tier and back , as far as poor
seasons go this doesn't even come close to the dross served up under the likes of Happy Harry,
Martin Peters , Billy McEwan .... etc . Always easy to 'support ' a team in the better times the true test is
is keeping the faith when things are not going as well . Up The Blades

You've not been watching us for the last 50 seasons then I take it.

Will be interesting to see how many fans drift away over the next few years, people who were 12 when we went up 2018 /19 will be 19 to 20 year old next season and will be their real first taste of mid table mediocrity when they are at an age of other distractions

About ten games were good value. Wednesday away started off great spell. Chrissy Wilder and Alan Three as we knocked goals in for fun. By the time of Weds at home we were rubbish am afraid again.

 

[BangorBlade]

[espoo blade]

Andre Brooks (Knee) and Tyler Bindon (Ankle) are both unavailable for today’s match after picking up injuries in training.

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Maybe Chong will manage a shot on target or something. Exciting

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Brooks injured

More like Beattie Flu.

F me - were they going over an assault course?!

 

[espoo blade]

Was it just me or did Hecky look a little bit moved by hearing the GCB again?
