Roy's View From... View From Huddersfield

[Weasel]

They did seem very quick to drop to the floor looking for a decision their way - they seemed to be looking for it. Not convinced on any of their shouts for a penalty. First one (disallowed goal incident) the lad felt a small tug from Baldock (he was also tugging Baldock if you watch a replay) and he fell to the floor very easily and then impedes Fodz. Second one they were screaming for was the one where Bogle touched his hand and their lad pirouetted in the air in a dramatic way to fall over... I mean come on, really? Third one was more dodgy and a heart in mouth time, but I thought he pushed it too long and ran into the tackle though there was a slight contact. You'll all be very surprised to note the Lee 'for me' Hendrie thought all three were pens...

As some have already mentioned, nothing said about the possible last man bringing down of Billy - who looked onside to me.... Or the tug on Billy's shirt in the incident when Berge nearly scores, or the dangerous elbow on McBurnie which again could have been a red on another day...

We could both argue our cases for decisions which went against us but what pissed me off yesterday was the pundits from sky who focused on all their shouts of injustice but completely glossed over antything the other way. As far Huddersfield, I think they are schooled from their Spanish?? Gaffer to go over with the slightest touch to try and win penalties (the second shout for a pen was laughable) and their fans are whiny bitches. On another day against an off colour and subdued United, they could easily have lost. Utd up their game by another 10 percent and we win that.

A good varied selection Roy. Like our supporters, most them can see the bigger pictures. A minority will always find summat to moan about. That’s football for ya.

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

“Baldock is an absolute shithouse. Fast becoming my most disliked player from a Sheffield-based team”
Jud must be gutted to learn he’s not (even) the biggest shithouse in Sheffield”

Shoulder charge second half another one for the scrapbook - their lad was still rubbing his arm / shoulder 10 minutes later

How can they not like Gorgeous George? Treating him like some second rate panto villain before attempting to run him outa town!

Their amateur dramatics did smack of the desperation some promotion chasing teams sometimes show.

'Sheffieild were crap....physical...bully....shithouse....robbed...."

it's getting salty again Roy

 

[ElephantBlade]

Personally quite glad we didn't see Wes extended.

 

[Tezza1889]

Didn't hear a peep out of them all match, but now all this bleating. Wankstains.

They have a bloke banging a drum..

Nothing says Tinpot more than that, I did enjoy shit housing them when that goal got chalked off, the look on thier little faces.. Bless em.

Was it just me or was the drum linked up to the Tannoy as well? That's double tinpot in my eyes (and ears).

Dunno... I thought it was a bit loud..

Tactics on the terraces, who'd have thunk it eh..

Not to mention their version of Gary Sinclair saying at half-time that he would replay on the big screen "a certain incident in the Sheffield United six-yard box" and then leave us to make our own minds up.

Two things:

a) it wasn't shown at half-time, probably because they're not allowed to show controversial incidents, and

b) look at all the hoo-ha when Gary Sinclair upset ickle Steve Bruce by commenting on the feast of football we'd just witnessed leaving cabbage-head's Villa 3-0 down at half-time.

And one more thing, as has been proved, it turns out it was the right decision for the wrong reasons. So that's tinpot, tinpot, tinpot, and tinpot. And wankers.

Having said all that, I found the police and stewards to be very friendly, and we got a free programme.

 

[RammyBlade]

Agree they should have had a penalty or a goal in that disallowed goal.
However no mention of the decision where Billy was hauled back as the last man and being given offside .. when TV replays showed he was ONSIDE so their player should have been sent off.
Also the decision against us where McBurnie was brought down in the box was as clear a penalty as theirs !
Happy with the point in the end as we can play much better than that and after making 4 changes.

 

[Rufus Smalls]

42nd …… it’s a miracle !

 

[originaltrueblade]

I thought this. They only showed one replay on Sky and didn’t bother discussing it at half time but there were two of their players who looked to me to be at worst level with Sharp when he got pulled down. From that offside they ran down the pitch to win the corner for the disallowed goal.

Exactly

Don't forget the free footbath in the toilets..

 

[CaptainMorgans]

I think a draw is a fair result on reflection. Either side could have won it. Hudders with their disallowed goal & penalty claims, Blades given we created the most clearcut chances.
Two form teams, share the spoils in an early kick-off derby match. All sounds pretty reasonable.

We were away from home, we're playing catch-up, it was vital we didn't lose. I'm happy enough with the result. The games in hand keep us in the hunt.

We've now got three home games in a row; Hull, Swansea & Blackburn. Take 7 points from that cluster and we should be really locking ourselves into the play-off positions ahead of some tough games in March (Forest, Boro @ home).

 

[Greenwich Blade]

Don't forget the free footbath in the toilets..

Conversation I had in those very bogs - and let's be honest here, blokes don't usually make conversation with strangers at urinals.

Me: "Actually, I might as well have pissed straight onto the floor."

Stranger: "Plenty already have."

Me: "Don't breathe in; it smells fuckin' awful!"

Stranger: "Piss usually does, as a rule."
