Whiteman in for Brayford

[west_yorks_blade]

in starting 11. Otherwise unchanged.

Reasonably happy with giving the lad a chance given Beard has been so poor recently.

If only we had a backup right back, oh wait, we sold/loaned them all

 

[Liaminho9]

Flynn RWB then

 

[PeteBlade]

Someone came in with the £1 million then?

 

[Pollingtonblade]

Probably don't want to risk him getting injured for selling him in summer.

 

[Jostein's Bandage]

Only the latest in the Adkins lottery. He'll be back next game. Replacing whoever is the best player on the pitch tonight, probably.

Or....is Brayford feigning injury because he's not a happy bunny.
Not saying he is, but he wouldn't be the first player to do this when things are not going well.
Must say he doesn't strike me as a player that would tho.

I think on the list of players that have played for us of which that suggestion could apply, Brayford would be near the bottom of it.

We have two players that have experience playing down the right defensively in Flynn and Whiteman. Which would you prefer we were playing tonight – the one in and out of a team plummeting toward relegation to League 2, or the one that can't get into a League 2 side?

Ryan Flynn did the job very well before Brayford came. It's the least of our worries ( I've said it now! )

You think he's playing well then?

Just a detail, Brayford hasn't been playing full back.

 

[Grappler]

Sky commentator just said that Nigel Adkins saying that 50% of the team will be academy players next season, which we pretty much knew

 

[Jostein's Bandage]

Now i didn't say that did i, mister? But he's not been playing any worse recently than he's being playing since he came back. It's a fairly random decision to drop him now.

Kell Brook on the bench is an interesting one.

'Underrated player Dean Hammond'

Already had quote of the night on sky.

 

[west_yorks_blade]

Never doubted him. Top lad. 1-1

 

[Jostein's Bandage]

What a player! Sign him up, sign him up, sign him up!

Already had quote of the night on sky.

Mine was "the expectation of Sheffield United fans is sky high".

This makes me want to lick batteries.

No it pissing well isn't!

Our expectation is to mount a credible promotion challenge in league shitting one!!!

 

[Jostein's Bandage]

Phooking ell Long.

 

[Blade58]

Probably me, but that defence looks decidedly dodgy

Slow and cumbersome are two words that spring to mind

 

[Foxy]

Was expecting Flynny to drop back and Ben in midfield.

 

[Jostein's Bandage]

His name is George Long
He's got his own soooooooooong
He's not that good in goal,
But he's got a big dong
