The team shouldn't make the fans nervous by serving up negative, weak willed shit every game.

Funny how the negative moaning lot could see this coming two months ago whilst the clappers carried on with their deluded, already promoted shit.

And true to form, we lose a couple of games and there all out again blaming the fans for it, fucking pathetic.

The turnaround in form happened months ago, it's just that the clappers won't see it.

Chasing Burnley is what should have been happening, but instead they settle for second place and do nothing more than try to protect 2nd place, becoming a boring, slow nondescript bunch of pricks only making an effort when they had to dig something out late on.

Results don't necessarily breed confidence when you are playing against relegation threatened shit, and struggling to beat them or draw with them, performances do.

It's been coming for months, the only thing is we've played against shit that's worse than us, but everybody could see the wheels falling off two months ago due to the Sheffield United must bore everybody fucking senseless attitude that this club has seeping from every fucking pore

We got undone with poor defending again. For 10 minutes before we scored and 15 minutes after we were dominant and looked like winning.

Sorry mate, but you must have been watching a different game to me (defending agreed with, but dominant , defo a NO). Have you got managers specs on?

Being honest, I only saw the last 10 mins today and I agree I only saw one winner after we had equalised and it wasn't us. I said to the lad, we need to shut up shop at the back and take a decent point here or we will get done with a late sucker punch. It's almost as if I've seen it a thousand times before. 2 mins later and from a hopeful punt into our box from a free kick we are all over the shop and hey presto my forewarning had come true. With our defence today you take the point and stay unbeaten. Unprofessional. So I agree, I could only see one winner in the bit I saw, unfortunately it was them.

Hecky has said he'd rather go for wins than shut up shop. If you win half and lose half from the drawing position, you are still better off.
That the spirit I like, and the football I want to watch.

Grow a spine and offer some fucking support at the upcoming matches, if you actually go.

You don't have a unique insight that others not as knowledgeable can't see. Anyone knows we haven't been consistent in our performances for a while.

Sure as eggs are eggs though, creating a negative edgy atmosphere will help Boro and others more than ourselves.

If you haven't noticed the club isn't in the healthiest of positions off the pitch and the money from promotion is key to our short term future. That's surely alot more important than a round of self satisfied 'I told you so's' from the usual doom mongers.

2nd half we hammered them.

Stat came up on about 55-60mins saying we'd had 80% possession in 2nd.

Is it just us who gets to play and win all these shit teams, and everybody else plays some other good teams?
 
First half arguably worst half of the season, better second half, again stupid mistakes cost us, second goal was Bash 3rd was Egan losing his man.
Just making too many mistakes lately and there leading to goals.

People on here have been moaning since Xmas when we're breaking records

It’s a minority that moan non stop. Any subject and they’re banging away in the best “told you” form who, when wrong shuffle back under their rock we know who they are. The vast majority express concerns about defeats where we played poorly etc and don’t deserve being lumped together with the trolls. It’s the constant moaners who, despite their laughable Better Blade claims who have little regard for the club - that’s saved for themselves - it’s those who support us all the way and vent their frustrations on here when the occasion demands it. Not day in day out.
 
I think unfortunately a good few were waiting for something like this to happen,
A few bad results, hecky’s tactics are shit , he’s shit there shit , there all fucking shit
It’s the princes fault ( If he’s still in charge by the end of the season that will be 3 promotions and an FA cup semi final ) while he’s been in charge with and without McCabe
The football in 3 out of the last 4 games has left an awful lot to be desired
Some of the defending has been fucking laughable if it wasn’t so serious for the promotion of our club out of this division
I’m disgusted at some of the performances from so called experienced and international players , who are giving some rank bad displays
Then can , and we need to demand better
I could name this player or that player who I think aren’t doing it but what would it achieve
We need to get back to basics
Defend as a team and attack as a team if your in defence track your man all 3 goals could and should have been avoided today
And play to the fucking whistle
I’m sick of hearing this performance or that performance wasn’t good enough
Your the manager , those are our players
Get the job fucking done , talk is cheap
Every Blade will accept defeat if it’s a Fulham 5-4 performance , or giving it a good fucking go not the fucking feeling sorry for ourselves type of games we’re seeing now
I’ll be livid for a few days until maybe Tuesday, then I’ll be looking forward to seeing us hammer Watford next week
I’m confident we’ll still go up
But it’s hard at the moment
As always UTB

I don’t think any of this is the fault of the fans, or the players or management either.

Lots of fans were talking about the effects of the boardroom shitshow, and that translated on the pitch today. I can’t see how its not having an effect on the players and management. The fans gave some decent backing today as well.

Don't know what you're trying to say
There's a manner to winning, and ours is boring, we make everybody from Middlesboro to Huddersfield to Wrexham look brilliant whether we win, lose or draw.
It's boring, the fans know what they are watching is boring, and they know whether they're bored or not.

The quick, exciting stuff we played early in the season has given way to fear and caution and trying to guard second place rather than being focused on keeping the pressure on Burnley. The pressure wasn't kept up on Burnley because "Hey ho" second is good enough innit.

Always looking to do the bare minimum means there's no room for error and it's why this club has so many shit dramatic bad times that looks like bad luck. But it isn't bad luck its a loser attitude that they can get away with at Sheffield United because nobody expects owt better.

Try to guard second place by winning. Yes that's what we've done. Unfortunately as another top team Burnley keep winning too.
CBA now, too much of an energy vacuum.
 
It still sticks in my throat how the whole saving of Slav and placing of PH was handled.

Like we were shit off their shoe afterthought … PH 5 year contract and base his performances on matters away from the pitch…..

PH is following this up with his media comments about the ownership and the silence is deafening from the baordrooom.

Supporting a team is much more than just the 11 on the pitch on a Saturday …. And right now people have a lot to be pissed off about…
 
The support for the team will always be there. This club has had its fair share of depressingly wank moments over the years and people turned up and will continue to do so week in week out.

The team both backstage or pitch are not void of criticism. Some crazy how in less than 5 days we have managed to more than half a commanding points gap, boost the confidence and form of an already in form team chasing us and cast concerns, negativity and doubt in our own camp. We began the week on the back of a well executed 3-0 win, 10 points clear and most neutrals have considered us promoted.

That is worth of criticism. Performances even when winning have not been convincing enough for a side chasing PL status. All of this would be fine if we were mid table, no real chances of promotion and no worries about relegation, but we aren't and what's more frustrating is you can see the capability within that squad to dominate a match from start to finish. We've seen it often this season.

This may come across as harsh but they need to either pick their heads up or Hecky needs to reconsider his tactics because right now they're on the verge of throwing away a promotion and subsequently half the squad.

Moaning on a forum is fine

Forums have a very important role to play. They act as a vessel to dump all our irrational grievances and angst and not take them to the ground with us. I really don’t see any problem having a moan and a groan on here.
 
It is interesting that on many posts members are advising "we need to do this, we need to drop him, we need to play so & so. we need to"...ad nauseum, & of course this is a forum where everyone is entitled to have a view & an opinion, which I agree with, but we are fans who have knee jerk reactions to everything we see, but the management team don't see things that way at all.
Ben Osborn is a current favourite of naysayers shouting loud & proud that he should be no-where near out first 11 & cite various examples why, but to Hecky & co he is just one player in our squad, & rather than drop him for a mistake will believe they can coach the mistakes out of him & he will be better next time.
Hecky was asked a direct question about poor play & mistakes after the game yesterday & he didn't answer, instead repeating "we know what we did wrong, we have to make sure it doesn't happen". That applies to many decisions throughout a game & to every player, they never see the latest mistake as the one that broke the camels back & decide he will no longer get a shirt, at the professional level it just doesn't work like that.

We’ve got a lot of white flag wavers haven’t we ... they must be around to the chemist weekly buying a myriad of uppers & downers .
When you’ve seen some of the shite I have in my 48 years of watching us the current situation hardly merits some of the abuse been aimed at the side by some elements .
Yes we’re fucked off with this weeks results but there’s still a lot points up for grabs . There’s some now that are booing at half time if the side aren’t fkg winning never mind losing .
Personally I wish theyd just fuck off back to some of there Facebook groups & get the Samaritans on redial .
You get behind your team through thick & thin ⚔️

We have had two bad results against promotion rivals and so a certain amount of nervousness is understandable.

However, if you want some comfort, look to the past.

Bassett's promotion winning side of 1989-90 had some terrible results in the second half of the season : 0-5 at West Ham, 0-4 at Leeds, 0-3 at Oxford, 1-3 at home to Sunderland. And we were also sometimes pretty unconvincing when winning. Port Vale and Oxford at Bramall Lane spring to mind.

That season the only side to finish in the top 7 that we beat was Swindon. We took one point from each of Leeds, Newcastle, Blackburn, Sunderland and no points at all from West Ham.

With just 4 games to go we lost at Elland Road 0-4 and fell out f the top two for (I think) the first time that season or at least the first time in a long while.
However, suddenly the pressure was on Newcastle and they only won one of their closing 4 fixtures (drew 2 and lost 1). We finished by winning 3 and drawing 1 of our final fixtures and went up with 85 points.

Pressure can do strange things to a side and I think we are feeling that pressure. Unfortunately it has coincided with a difficult run of games. It happened under Warnock as well and I recall a midweek game between Leeds and Crystal Palace at Elland Road. If Leeds won I think they would have gone either level with us or maybe just one point behind. They lost and never really recovered from that.

You just never know what will happen. If the past is anything to go by there could still be many strange and unlikely twists to come.

Spot on 👍👍 ... can you imagine some of ours now in that season .. they’d have shook a seven after the defeat at Upton Park ⚔️

I'm not one of these who gets arsey when fans are critical, especially when it's justified, but the current reaction both on social media and at matches is abysmal imho.

Nothing wrong with pointing out players who you don't think are playing well or where you feel the manager has got it wrong but jeez....made the cardinal stupid error of nipping on Shoutbox during the game yesterday 😱😳🤡

We can all see improvements are needed in certain areas of our performance but I've got no truck with the seemingly growing number who are waiting for us to fail just so they can say 'I told you!'

I'm no eternal optimist and won't be that shocked if we blow it but let's at least give them as much help and support until it's over. We're still 4 points clear with a game in hand ffs.

This time it looks like it could well be a lot more important than just playing at a higher level next season.

Fantastic post but let me say the players aren’t miserable losers they will put it right as confidence is high. All football throws up shit results for every fan but for me it’s up to the players and their self belief.

That's not an opinion, that's just downright rude and insulting and suggests that you either have very low intelligence or are. ahem, a pig? Or is it both?

Arsenal, Plymouth and Orient, all flying in their Leagues and then hit a road block. It happens.
