Match Thread The Owls v The Mighty Blades

[Nicolaus_Copernicus]

Poor 1st half. Our front 2 hasn’t worked. Wednesday will score 1st, either a pen or something will drop for them in the box. We need at least a draw tonight.

 

[The Hobott]

I miss Duffy

 

[metalblade]

pigs are trying to swamp midfield

 

[Prestonblade5]

Baffling because in previous games Madine has played for us, yes we’ve used his strengths but we weren’t hoofing it up to him at all. I think maybe Duffy on and leave Madine for 15 mins.

 

[MKY]

Time to play football. McGoldrick & Duffy on. Pigs have not had a sniff. We can/should put them to the sword.

 

[INTAKE BLADE]

I could batter these bottling officials, wankers

 

[Champagneblade]

Some good balls by Norwood.

We look solid defensively.

Need to get the ball down a little more.

Key is to be patient.

We have some game changers on the bench if it is still 0-0 with 20 to go.

Not really seen anything of them offensively really.

Keep going Blades. We can do this!

 

[A Storm of Blades]

I think they were ready for Madine, or at least ready for the rough and tumble. Didsy’s guile is needed I think. Awful conditions though.

 

[robbiez666]

It's the kind of game where we need Duffy to link up play. It's bypassing our midfield most of the time.

 

[JayGreen17]

Ffs Bash in midfield, Memories of villa.....

 

[JayGreen17]

We need a bit of pace and creativity

 

[FriethBlade]

Bruce done his homework, they've stopped us down the flanks and forced us to go long. Need some guile from Duffy or McG, Dowell hasn't had a kick

 

[The Hobott]

We're playing for a draw

 

[FinchleyBlade]

Can't believe there were actually people on here saying Dowell is better than Duffy. Dowell is a very average player, has done nothing to show he should be in the team over Duffy.

He’s been class apart from tonight. Maybe a little inexperience in such a big game.

 

[Davalon]

Blackwell is back from my view

 

[GreggyHalford]

Battered Wednesday all game, we should be 3-0 up. Fuck the officials.

 

[FriethBlade]

Get Duffy on

 

[FinchleyBlade]

Has he? I've seen him play every game and he hasn't looked at Duffys level yet to me.

 

[Prestonblade5]

All about opinions I suppose.

 

[Peaktrade]

Watch the pigs celebrate their 0-0 win.

 

[blades95]

Why the fuck is the ref finishing the game 3 or 4 seconds before time when were in decent positions both halves?

 

[Speedracer]

Wrong team for me tonight & one or two players not done enough. Disappointing but we move on, we all know in these games anything can happen.

 

[1973Blade]

I will take that. We need six points from our next two home games.

 

[DeanLearner'sCat]

It was a dreadful football match, I thought. Take the point and move on.

To be honest the whole derby experience is unpleasant and I’m glad we’re done with it

 

[Nicolaus_Copernicus]

BS was totally nullified. It’s games like this where our lack of pace up front is glaring. Saying that, it’s a good point. We need to get back in the saddle against Rotherham and then Brentford. Leeds is the biggie.

 

[blader]

So disappointed with our tactics tonight. Why go long for 70mins and waste dowell as a 10... then get rid of the 10 and bring McGoldrick on? Baffling and confusing. Should best crap teams like that.

 

[Champagneblade]

Poor game really.

Better team but didn't really get going that much.

 

[FriethBlade]

Sign of how far we've come. They were happy not to lose. We didn't have the guile to break them down. Don't understand why Duffy wasn't brought on.
