Some pathetic banter on this site recently!!!

[Pierre's PC]

Your just being a twat. There is that more in the Top Bantz envelope for you?

Brayford, Done, Harris, Adams, Baxter, Kennedy, Ryce, McEveley all to add to last Tuesday's team.

When we have most of those players back I will be happier to "bantz" with the let me kindly say " less realistic" posters who "want it all and want it now".

6th after10 games is not a bad place to be when we have all those players to add.

I'm disappointed we haven't signed a loan player yet, but just look at that list, it's almost a full team, in fact add Cuvellier, Long and J.Wallace and it is a full team - all wages that need paying. And the league leaders defended us to a 0-0 draw on their patch last Tuesday to boot.

Apologies. You're a twat.

Yep. This is the year though.

My fire comment is in regards to the amount of panic that seems to have set in with fans already.

On Tuesday night for example, people were grumbling in the stand that Gillingham were "freescoring" as they had scored 4 (ended up at 5). "Why can't we do that?" someone said... On Tuesday, we were joint top scorers in the league going into the game. "Freescoring Gillingham" were 2 goals behind us. Billy Sharp is also joint top scorer in the league on 6. We're moving along quite nicely.

The worrying thing for me is the Goals Against column. 14 goals in 10 isn't a Chamionship winning return (unless you're Real Madrid who insist on scoring more than the opposition, whatever the amount).

However... To analyse that column a bit further - of the 14 goals conceded, 10 were conceded in our 3 defeats: 4-0 (Gills), 1-3 (Bury) and 2-3 (U's). As well as Wallace and Freeman are playing, we have Brayford and Harris to come back in. These have to be our first choice fullbacks. Once the defence is tightened up a very sensible bet will be 2-0 SUFC. I think LB will be fought out by Harris, Freeman, McEverley and Wallace. Brayford, if fully recovered will walk back into the RB slot.

You could say i'm stupid but i'm v.confident this season.

I'm with you stupid

 

[sothall blade]

A history of missing loan targets ?

Surely it's not all bad luck?

no its not all bad luck, its that fookin fax machine !

Yeah if only they had been fit last season

Balanced in recent weeks we are now getting some real vitriol on this site.Talk about blasting the club and
giving Adkins stick at this stage is out of order in my opinion.We have got a history of missing our loan targets (and has I have stated before if clough had got his targets over the line we would be in the championship now) but we have enough squad fillers and getting quality to drop into this division is not easy Hammond for one is probably on 20k + a week plus and to throw away a lot of money at age 32 would
be fool hardy ,he obviously wants to come but negotiations between Leicester his agent and United will be very difficult and to criticise mal brannigan without knowing what's happening is dam right wrong,he will have a budget as an employee and has to stick within that.
Adkins inherited a large squad with a number of key players out with injuries or on there way back in rehabilitation his room for monoever in the market will have been limited due to that.The way some fans are reacting is ridiculous, anybody would think we were in the bottom 4 ,top 6 maybe is not good enough
and Adkins has said as much.He said when he took over everyone would get there chance that is the right way to do things there are one or two still waiting in the wings for an opportunity but I would think he will
have a good idea who he is going to use (the rest are still our players and on the payroll and getting them out on loan depends on other clubs wanting them) I keep preaching that word patience but what's the alternative? We all agreed Adkins is the right man for the job but he can't work miracles with this squad,
he is developing it as best he can changing to a more attacking policy with a set of players put together by clough to be more patient in the way they as a team went about things not easy to change the mindset without the additions he needs.
As for the club not giving him the funds required ,taking the job he would know where he stood (said as much at the fans forum if you were there?) I think we all know that hammond and burn are two players he
wants and if it is not possible he will move on to other targets (I think both deals are far from dead) getting good players to drop down to this level as I have stated is not easy and you can't keep throwing silly money
at it you get the wrong players that way.,We all can name some of them.Adkins is charged with finding hungry players who will drop down to our level,hammond and burn are two he has identified I wish him the best of luck .Hammond although 32 will give us something we need a "leader" burn is a young player out of
contract in the summer and hunger to prove himself,:: bring em on !!!

Amen.

I'm usually reluctant to Ignore but I'm not paid enough, or in fact anything, to read what closely resembles the relentlessly miserable and even hateful outpourings of patients expressing themselves therapeutically as treatment for chronic paranoid psychotic depression. Come on. Get it all out. Purge your soul of its agony and torment. And give me £300 an hour to put up with it.

So that button has taken a bit of a hammering in recent weeks.

If you've got suggestions on how to improve things, let's hear them, but I'm personally not interested in how shite you think everything is.

 

[Leonardo Green]

Soz lads, I've been away - but the Archbishop of Banterbury is back in town - OI OIIIIIII!!!!

give it a couple of months and Banta Claus will be along!!!

 

[William Henry Foulkes]

Theres a great point here. Some people have thrown all sorts of abuse and quite frankly shit at the previous manager. He did it a different way but to be fair to him and on reflection it doesn't look as if he was actually doing that bad a job. Adkins has come in and some appear to think he just flicks a switch and it all goes swimmingly. The older I get the more I realise that good things don't just happen to us (they happen to other people!!!). Anything worth building happens over time. Clough didn't get enough time in my estimation and there isn't a day goes by with Adkins in charge that changes my mind. He is a better manager hence we have probably done the right thing to get a quicker fix but theres also the fact that we have to tear it all down and start again, which takes more time.

People threw shit at Wilson before but getting rid of him didn't improve our position either did it? What is the message here? Once more good things take time and tearing it all down doesn't always work.

The OP may be clumsy but the point is good enough. Adkins has hardly been in charge 3 months but the clouds are gathering. They are darker and blacker than before and at this rate come Christmas you feel there will be mass outrage if we aren't top. Some of the comments following the Burton result are plain laughable.

Great post. I was against sacking Clough for the reasons in the post quoted.


But we did. And I think Adkins is far and away the best man for the job. Problem is he's using Clough's players - for now.

If Adkins can't get us out of this League this season or next then we might be here or lower for a very very long time.

 

[blade too long]

I enjoy to and fro of elequant argument
its such a shame many have an agenda of heaping all the ills of the past on every setback , a point at a top of the league club , be it only Burton has become a bitter loss of 2 points to what is effectively a non league side
How is this intelligent
It gives no credit whatsoever to what Burton have acxhieved , in fact its very insulting to all the hard work theyve done to get there
I remember going to plough lane and losing to Wimbledon on their rise , feeling we shouldnt be losing to these
They won the fa cup and stayed in the prem twice as long as we did
Football is changing constantly
The abuse offered to Burton is akin to a form of racism , they arent worthy attitude sucks big time
Show some respect to other clubs

Can you imagine Southampton fans rage at losing to us in the league cup , its only little sheff utd
we would be outraged at this point of view

we shouldnt sink to that

No... I got bored reading that about half way down

Hi finlaytheblade - who were the targets that you are referring to? Genuinely interested.

****IT'S ALL BLADESMAD's FAULT CLAXON****

What it is PeteBlade the "Blades can do no wrong" majority on here have had their cosy little world turned upside down by an influx of posters who have a different viewpoint and boy they don't like it, me on the hole I think it is like a breath of fresh air as it makes it harder for them to shout down those of us that don't view everything through red and white tinted specs. Some very good posters have come from BM we just need to learn one or two which sections to post in

Agree with regards to the new influx of posters but I I think most of them have offered some good debate and opinions but a small handful seem all too willing to not tolerate others' points of view (e.g. the clapper/slasher rubbish) and not offer any constructive comments to a thread. What particular annoys me is when a post gets personal against posters because their opiniuon differs to their own

[Northyorksblade]

Nothing wrong with elequant people

 

[ShockingBadBuy]

There are people who have pretty much stopped posting on here because of the recent stream of bile that comes with every single event. What used to form constructive debate appears to now be a thing of the past. You can put it down to whatever you want and perhaps like those before it the asylum always gets taken over by the lunatics and those former constructive posters just stop posting. Be sad if this place with all the efforts put in by those who run it (who oddly enough are about the most positive and constructive posters here) went the way of previous forums where people didn't bother posting because what generally follows is a tirade of thoughtless crap posted apparently by someone who either is or has the mentality of a 12 year old.

I know, god forbid someone strived to make things better rather than just decent into the gutter like society appears to want to do, but that is genuinely how I feel about recent events here. Examples are such as not winning away at top of the league. The spoiled brat rantings because we didn't sign all and everyone they wanted either on loan or for a fee.

Well said, sir.

 

[vorpal blade]

I like the idea of *'decent into the gutter' - how Wildean - in the spirit of
Burlington Bertie from Bow...... and I know that feeling.


*(and I know the perils of predictive text too!)

 

[PeteBlade]

Far too many people worry themselves about what others are saying.

And class debate as "non intelligent" simply because it doesn't tie in with their own viewpoint.

 

[robbiez666]

The original post just leaves me shaking my head. Post your opinion and make assumptions and then criticise anyone who disagrees?

Can we not sign Jimmy Muir and disable comments?

 

[Alfreton14Blade]

I'm afraid I'm going to have to confirm that the rumour's true - my mate Jez Corbyn personally arranged for a mass influx of Bladesmad posters onto S24SU.

Is there nothing he won't stoop to, the evil bastard?

Who the hell do these Bladesmad posters think they are?

Coming on here, voicing their OPINIONS about THEIR football team?!

I mean, some of them post far too much, and don't even ask the permission of people who have been posting on here longer about if their posts are positive enough.

Scum.

Here we go again. There's probably a good surgeon at the Claremont who'd look at removing that chip from your shoulder.
