[Bladesman98]

Hope it's not when we 2 down..

We shall see

 

[HarryHaslam]

3-1 to the Blades tonight

 

[Bladebri]

If the manager believes he has the best 11 on the pitch I am happy with that

 

[FinBlade]

Are we panicking? Why are we panicking?

Oh dear Anal suspended and Bash injured again, very average lineup-it's going to be a long night

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

No Coulibaly. No Arblaster. The bench is as bad as the starting line up.

 

[SUFCScorecard]

Sarr and Dennis in the lineup probably their last game for Watford …..bloody marvellous

Dennis up against Clark who is playing out of position, and Sarr up against RND who is playing out of position. What could go wrong.

 

[SufcBilly]

Great promo on Insta for tonight's game featuring two players not starting and one who should never start for us again.

Aye mate the 17 year old graphic designer sat in his bedroom on Shoreham street was to know the team when he made this last night fuelled on monster

 

[El Volví]

Nudge nudge wink wink...
Be careful which country you're watching from tonight.
The 'unsold territories' list has changed!

 

[robbiez666]

Psyching myself up to listen to Kevin Gage

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Great to be on the road with the Blades again!

 

[Blade58]

1 game ban

How’s he banned before 1st game of season?

 

[BigBed]

If we score first I'm cashing out!

 

[BushBlade]

Sarr and Dennis in the lineup probably their last game for Watford …..bloody marvellous

If it’s their last game, they won’t want to risk getting injured.

But I have to admit, our line up is a bit depressing.

 

[robbiez666]

I know we like our bright graphic design but I find this kind of thing much nicer. Not happy with Sarr and Dennis starting

 

[Gannon's perm]

How’s he banned before 1st game of season?

I think, because Malmö are 16 games into this season already. So he was suspended for this season and not last.

 

[SB_90]

i thought the 1st game of the season was 1 you were guaranteed to have full team. but only us could have half a team on the opening day

very surprised to see RND at CB & jebbo for Brewster. but this was always going to be 1 of our toughest games

 

[Houston_Blade]

Anel banned

 

[Eza Blade]

How’s he banned before 1st game of season?

Serving a one Match suspension for all the terrible anal puns on this website. We’re gunna be put through ringer tonight now

 

[Houston_Blade]

I’m moaning before we start for a change but we’ve got a weakened defence, lack of a goal scorer and no MGW. Best window ever

I've travelled to Wallis & Futuna to watch the game

 

[TCsLoveChild]

Are we panicking? Why are we panicking?

Cos that back 3 looks sure to concede and our front 2/3 look unlikely to score. Of course past performance is no guide to the future. UTB

 

[Camden Blade]

Yep.

Worse than I thought then because Clark is left footed. That means three left sided centre backs.

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

I'll happily stand corrected if we win and play well. But I'm angry that the same midfield lacking creativity and consistency is still starting after two and half seasons of being an ineffective unit.

Why Fleck? He's garbage and had a handful of good games in two and half seasons. Why not take a gamble on Arblaster? At least it would be 11 vs 11 instead of 10 vs 11 with Fleck on the pitch.

I await mockery at the final whistle.

 

[Gretsch Blade]

Having seen the speed of their front three vs the lack of speed of our centre backs, I'm already concerned....

 

[ATL Recs]

Thank god for the five subs

We might need then after 30 minutes

 

[1973Blade]

It's usually about 15 minutes before our season kicks off that I suddenly become pessimistic.

I think back to Paul Warne’s interview the other day when he said how concerned he was putting on the kids in the second half of the friendly against us, how he was worried that it may damage their confidence long term if they got spanked. I’m not sure an away game, first of the season, against a potentially strong side, is the best time for a 17 year old to make their debut.

 

[FatPaul]

Is Robinson injured too?
