Swarm of Locusts over Bramall Lane

[BaldeRunner]

Just spotted. No surprise because our bad luck is of biblical proportions:

1. Relegated with last kick of the season as 4 other results all combine in an cataclismic way to send us down against all the odds. Result: a decade in the wilderness out of the Prem
2. Relegated by the most conniving and blatant cheating the football league has ever seen. Statement released that West Ham won't be docked points because "it wouldn't be fair on the supporters" (yes, it actually happened). Relegated with highest ever points total from the prem. Result: club goes into freefall squandering millions and ends up in the third division
3. Best season in years culminates in the three most important games in the club's recent history. Just as we begin the three crucial game run-in star striker and talisman gets banged up for rape. Blades miss promotion and set a record for the highest points total ever in the history of the league not to get promoted. Result: club falls into furhter decline as top players leave
4. Plague of locusts land on Bramall Lane pitch making it unplayable, whole team comes out in mysteious boils before play-off semis and last remaining strikers slip and break ankles on a load of frogs hidden in the wet turf

You heard it here first

I think flood might nip pestilence in the bud this time. Not left the house yet today...

Speaking of which the weather didn't half remind me of the Wigan game. Oh Footballing Gods, why hast thou forsaken us? (yer bunch of knobbers)

With a bit of luck the Sty might flood again

20 years ago this week the dirties won the league at the lane- A game I really really wanted us to win not just cos of my hate for them-but as my 2 best mates were also there, as Leeds fans..

Since then we have lost numerous important games...Playoffs/playoff finals/cup semis/relegation fights.....

And now to top if off we are about to fuck promotion up after a nearly unassailable lead because our top striker is jailed for rape and we choke. And the team that nips past us is the feckin pigs...
You couldn't make it up....

Locusts?? a bag load of cracked mirrors!!

What would top it off is if we decided to sack said top striker or allow his contract to lapse, his appeal is successful then he ends up signing for the scum because they got promoted over us. My God, I think I've just sent myself into a deep depression.

Or his appeal isn't successful and we are still in this bloody division when he is free....

I 'love' being a Blade

They kill us for their sport.
