The title race

[Slim Man]

Back wide open.

Don't think anyone truly expects us not to get promoted but today's dropped points could be significant with Bolton relentless at the minute. Poor result today really, poor decision to put Done at LWB.

 

[Caseh]

Getting points away from home are never dropped, IMO.

 

[JJBlade]

We will finish second
It's what United do in Promotion years
Let someone else take the glory

 

[Barney]

How is it a poor result? It keeps our unbeaten run going, we're exactly the same amount of points ahead of 3rd (the most important stat) as we were at 3 o clock, and now we have one less game to play.

 

[Danny_Blade]

Bolton have won 5 on the bounce now, but they're not gonna keep on winning until the end of the season are they and will drop points sooner or later and we're still better than them.

We were always gonna find it difficult today, onto the next game.

 

[JJBlade]

Pitch was a disgrace and it has completely taken our midfield out of the game

 

[Minty]

So much negativity.

Just don't understand it personally. We are still top by 4 points and 10 clear of 3rd, what's the fucking problem?

 

[Russ]

We are edging closer. I'm Appy! Let's look forward to the next game.

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

Bolton have Southend Scunny and Oldham All way coming up if they win all them 3 good luck to them

 

[Sean Thornton]

So much negativity.

Just don't understand it personally. We are still top by 4 points and 10 clear of 3rd, what's the fucking problem?

4 wins guarantees promotion plus one game less for Fleetwood to make up the difference.

 

[Dalelane01]

Agree with mintys comment.negativity when we drop points sooner be in our position than boltons

 

[Roygbiv]

That was an excellent point . There was no grass on the pitch, they are in form and it was away. The points cushion we built up earlier in the season means that we can more than afford to draw away from home

 

[Slim Man]

Woah woah, no negativity here regards the season as a whole. Just saying today's results have blown it back wide open imo.

The pitch was a disgrace no doubt about that but it's the same for both teams.

 

[Kop Cat]

Jesus, whats up with some folk,Bolton have to go to S****horpe,Sarfend and play on that shitty pitch at Oldham, they will drop points as will United. We are still the team to catch. It will be meltdown on here next week then if we dont beat Millwall and then Bolton get it down to a point. We will be promoted.

But it was a leveler. We are a better side than Oldham in terms of technical ability but that today counted for nothing. It was more about winning challenges and scrapping . We matched them at what they do best on a pitch where we couldn't do any more

 

[metalblade]

Coming up soon Bolton away at Southend and then Scunthorpe. I doubt they will win every game until the end of the season. Lets see what Bolton do at Oldham no need to panic just yet.

 

[BladeInIreland]

that pitch will probably suit bolton.

 

[bladesmanluke]

More pressure on Tuesday now though. We could really do with the 3 points

 

[Living In a Fantasy World]

First half cost us, it was bloody awful, same goes for the fans chanting that same song for 40 minutes.
Pitch wasn't an excuse Oldham played some football, so did we in parts but got to say tactic's has cost us today. I don't have a clue what the team talk was before the game.

 

[Blend-it-like-Harris]

Good point on a crap pitch - excellent performance from Hanson. Only one injury (hopefully not serious) Another game gone. We will win the league - chill out folks.

 

[Pollingtonblade]

Would Bolton swap with us? Yes

Do they still need to win 2 more games than us ? Yes

Next

 

[Roygbiv]

that pitch will probably suit bolton.

It's their ideal pitch. Surprised they haven't ripped the turf up at their home ground to be honest

 

[LJBlade]

The title race was never closed

Also, Done didn't do much wrong today. Wasn't the best player on the pitch but wasn't the worst. Who would you have played there instead? Would that have guaranteed a different result?

 

[fuerstenberger]

My cousin went to see them today. He's a football man through and through, very astute. He said the Shrews battered them at times, the difference being Championship quality strikers. We have to admit,they do have some quality players, but then so do we and we are the better team. I can see them going ahead of us at some point, but nerves will start to show and they will end up below us. Note: I am shit at predictions.

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

The good thing is that Millwall need to win so won't park the bus. That will suit us better

 

[TarquinDelouche]

Title race schmitle schmace. I've said it before, I say it again. Get promotion, in any form. Anything else is just decoration.

 

[S1blade]

Wilder didn't get 3 points today in order to give us all an extra few days to renew at frozen prices. Blade through and through.

 

[ourbob]

All that every normal thinking blade wanted today was at least the 10 point gap between us and Fleetwood.
Promotion first.
Cake later.

 

[WATOAOW]

Squeaky bum time for the Blades...

 

[JordoBlade]

Pitch is no excuse. These are struggling for a reason. Poor result today on to Millwall.
