Match Thread The Mighty Blades v The Owls

[Mendi]

Missed a pen

How your nerves Wednesday fans?

This is frenetic stuff so far and Sheffield United are playing at a great tempo. Wave after wave they come forward and at times, it's like pinball in that Wednesday area.

Reminds me of villa game without the goals

 

[Speedracer]

Great stuff so far, shame about the pen miss but keep going Blades the goal will come.

 

[JayGreen17]

If we lose or even draw this game it will be the biggest travesty in football.
Come on UTD !

 

[Whiston Blade]

0-0 written all over it and if these cunts somehow sneak a win I don’t know what I’d do.

 

[JayGreen17]

It’s very frustrating to watch we need some magic.

 

[JayGreen17]

Norwood goal coming

 

[JayGreen17]

Not sure we have anything on the bench or how we would change we’re playing so we’ll.

 

[Whiston Blade]

Frustrating this, no one can deny we’re the better team but the pigs are defending well.

Come on Blades.

 

[Whiston Blade]

No penetration, get to their box and nowt happens.

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

Shit team parks the bus and somehow escapes with a point. Vol 3.
Those fuckers are going down.

 

[Not_a_Cheat]

Not fuckinh kidding. Out witted .

 

[DeanLearner'sCat]

But I fear it's going to be one of those play-well-but-can't-score type games that we have too often.

Fuck's sake. My fault, lads.

Can't recall the last time a team had 75% possession when there wasn't at least a 2 division gap.

Played well. Dominated. But that pen miss is the defining moment.

Had that gone in, it could have been the cricket score many predicted.

Derby aside, it's disappointing in the grand scheme to give up 2 points at home against a team with no attacking intent.

 

[JayGreen17]

Disappointed.. can’t remember such a one sided game... even more than last year.. they looked like a league 2 Side.. they may be celebrating like they’ve won the World Cup, but the reality for them is they’re in an relegation battle, we on the other hand are so desperate to find a cutting edge and someone to make that difference...we didn’t SHOOOOOT enough we need more shots at the keeper around the box with the positions we get in, all too similar to last season..we are nearly the real deal but the owners need to stop ducking about and give Chris what he needs, we’ll played blades, the lads were ace.

Said pre match Regardless of their recent form, no derby is easy. They could bottom of L2 & it would be tough. Although it Feels like january dejavu, because it was yet more attack v defence. I thought we played great, yeah we overplayed at timesBut was little space given by unambitous opposition. When you have 10 men camped on 18yd line that tough for any team to break down. Ive seen man city quality struggle ie 0-0 at home v Huddersfield i was amazed sharp didnt take that penalty thought it was nailed on. You'd have to wrestle it off him

I was astounded at How wednesday fans celebrate that. Because Jos has now managed 2 derbies & with tactically zero interest of winning either & has somehow managed to be more negative 2nd time around. I compared it to Celtic v rangers. 2 rangers bosses have lost their job for parking the bus. I know few fans i know weren't happy actually replied with "i hope we can more attacking football like you"

Finally that was worst conditions i can remember for a derby at lane i can remember & any home game since Peterborough 2011. shocking as rain managed to impossibly get heavier in 2nd half. Perils of being in 1st 6 rows of family stand
