[fifty shades of blade]

Sit back like cowards and that is what u get

 

[Jan Age]

We are crap really really crap

 

[YES Blade]

Both teams have been shite at creating chances so I suppose it was only going to be long range shots that were going to go in

 

[Kenworthy’s Tash]

FFS

 

[SwissBlade]

Great goal

Peck could get out quicker but it’s a hell of a strike

 

[drblade]

Ayew to score the winner. You heard it here first.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Donovan on for that utter carthorse Brereton please

 

[YES Blade]

Fuck me! Donovan still can’t get on!

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

Still no Donovan, Wilder can fuck off

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Donovan on for that utter carthorse Brereton please

He isnt getting a game ffs!

 

[Blades4life10]

Not like we have anyone who can have a pop from that range is it hamer gone nobody gets near box and has a pop when owt can happen nah will sit back tip tap in our own half to see them out

but his words will be a moment of madness from stoke nah mate you invite it every game bar the free kick its abysmal created nothing open play is horrendous

 

[JayGreen17]

Totally crap, crap sub and just sit back, go for it ffs, giving them nothing to worry about AGAIN!!!!!! we’re losing this AGAIN

 

[ATL Recs]

I’m completely bemused, why can’t Donovan get on the pitch

 

[luffenhamblade]

Just don’t get why Donovan not on. Makes no sense.

 

[originaltrueblade]

Still no Donovan FFS

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

If he was going to make these changes it should have been at 1-0, especially Shackleton

What reason for Chong over Donovan? New toy now he's back from injury so can't resist?

 

[RobboBlade]

Just like England in the semi-final when everyone's shitting themselves and midfield goes hiding back into the defence

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Sit back like cowards and that is what u get

Agree to a certain extent, but that was a world class strike for their goal.

 

[GKhantRebel]

Can anyone explain why Donovan is being ignored again??

 

[SharpAsAblade]

Shackleton, cheers Wilder

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

If cannon had put BBD in then likely 2-0. He has absolutely zero football brain

 

[RWE]

Shackleton/Chong over Donovan… reckon he doesn’t fancy him after the Blackburn game where he gave it away twice near our box (normal for a 19 year old kid btw)

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

Can anyone explain why Donovan is being ignored again??

Doesn't fit the culture, too attack minded

 

[Jan Age]

If he was going to make these changes it should have been at 1-0, especially Shackleton

What reason for Chong over Donovan? New toy now he's back from injury so can't resist?

Donavan is far too creative and exciting for wilder he makes him panic

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

If cannon had put BBD in then likely 2-0. He has absolutely zero football brain

Not the first time he's proven to be absolutely wank in that situation either

 

[blader]

Unacceptable selfish play from Cannon

We'll barely get another opportunity like that

This, by the way, must NOT go unnoticed.

Absolutely ridiculous and a minute later they equalise. Horrendous decision making

 

[Niallllll]

After wilders comments post Fleetwood and some of the players who have still managed to get a game today and most notably who hasn’t such as Donovan.

It does make me concerned the dig about not listening was aimed at Donovan for being too direct and not backwards sidewards enough.

 

[GKhantRebel]

Agree to a certain extent, but that was a world class strike for their goal.

Yeah, a great strike, in fairness, but we had 9 players back and. They all stayed at the edge of the box and no-one was pushing out until Peck's late attempt

 

[drblade]

KP is out best player. End of.

 

[Hamer's Right Peg]

Oh Sydie
