"A draw it was. Lads battled and tried but we just didn't have enough. Having said that we missed some great chances again. Our failure to convert chances might be our undoing.
Defensively we were solid with Pennington having an excellent game in the centre. Midfield a little lightweight without the big guns in there."
"Sheffield United were extremely poor. Negative tactics, not much quality and their major contribution to the game was to commit a series of niggly fouls to break up our attacking moves."
"Pennington made the highly rated Maguire of Sheffield United look like a pub player."
"we were unlucky today"
"Atmosphere was crap today, less than 6,000 on a bank holiday with over 1,000 of them away fans. "
"We dominated the game, Sheff U were awful but we just couldn't score"
"their CB maguire talked about with big clubs looked like a pub team defender compared to our 2 today"
"A better set up would have seen a tired and predictable Sheff Utd put to the sword there"
"A game we deserved to win and I don't think we could have asked any more of the players.They looked dangerous going forward but OFW hardly had a save to make. "
"Desperately unlucky, best team by a mile."
"Lots of teams make 3 subs during a match, it's called taking a chance to shake things up.Sheffield made there 3rd sub in the 69th minute."
"Huge missed opportunity."
"0 in the last 3 games, all opportunities to sort out our own destiny, is why we're not good enough. Sheffield United were lax and probably had summer holidays on their mind."
"Good performance today. On that display we are too good to go down."
"We could still be playing now and I don't think we would have scored."
"We were toothless going forward and whilst Sheffield were disappointing they did prove tough to break through."
"Sheff Utd were awful and spent the afternoon just kicking anything that moved. How they did so well in the FA Cup is a mystery and how that big lump at the back is rated so highly I'll never know!"
"Hard to see on that evidence how Sheffield Utd have done so well in recent months apart from their physical game...maybe thats the key...kick one or two of the opposition out of the game each week. Then again with Chris Morgan as coach its not hard to see where that comes from. Brian Clough wouldn't be too impressed..."
