According to Radio Sheffield, Steve Bruce has said "Let the best team win".

That's very magnanimous of him considering that we're clearly the best team by a country mile.

I wonder what the amount of the release clause is in JOCs new contract? No less than £10m ?

There isn’t one

Enjoyed Wilder’s interview. “We won’t be chucking shirts into the away end if we get a draw, we’re not scared to lose” was my favourite line. Great dig at the pigs from a true Blade.

They got the 0-0 they came for, but they know as well as we do that that was very embarrassing from them. They often refer to us as “tinpot” etc. but the sight of their fans in jubilation after barely leaving their half for an entire 90 minutes warmed my heart. How far they’ve fallen.

Isn't the designated away pub that one in Hillsborough that had all the United flags in the windows a few years ago?

Did you black out half way through reading the thread ?

The squad had done us proud in recent games, but if everybody is 100% fit, I think I’d start with the 11 that was first choice for so long knowing we’ve got potential game changers on the bench.

Same. You field your strongest team. Nobody has been dropped for lack of form. The only debatable one for me if Freeman over Baldock. As well as Cranie has done, I'd bench him. On the other hand, the forced changes have had a 4-0 win and a 1-0 win away at WBA, so I honestly don't mind what the team selection ends up being.

That’s just it isn’t it, after the last three games, three victories and three great performances; we don’t really know what our strongest team is do we? So, if we don’t know, the opposition certainly don’t! Personally I’m not even thinking about what side we put out, it really doesn’t matter, I know we will go to try and win no matter what, and that’s good enough for me.
