Remember when Sinclair used to go round offering them out for a bareknuckle? I think only Jon Cullen took him up on the offer.
 
Hello and welcome to another episode of Sheffield United Nit Pickers, the show in which Blades fans moan and pick fault in absolutely everything since Reuben Selles took over as manager.

Coming up on tonight's show some fans are not amused that social media is trying to be light hearted and jovial, and show that the squad are personable and have charisma. One fan, Kevin from Dronfield writes

"Dear Nit Pickers. I saw latest social media post and it was outrageous. Players opening boxes of spiders and reacting like a bunch of fannies. Chris Morgan wouldn't have put up with it. He'd have stamped on the bastard and headbutted the fool with the box. Proper Sheffield United player, not like these soft namby, pamby lot that we've got who like keeping the ball and passing it around instead of oofing it. Don't tha know that we're kicking off against Bristol on Satday. They should be training hard and not pratting around wasting time."

A spokesman from the club replied to this.

"Shut the **** up Kevin you utter tool!"

Later on in the show we'll be discussing fans discontent at the club not having signed any players yet for the 26/27 season, despite the 25/25 season having not started yet.

First a word from our sponsors. Xanax.

You clearly don’t understand social media and how important it is in this day and age as a fan engagement tool.

This latest attempt at showcasing BTS content is utter tosh for a professional championship club. It wouldn’t get passed GCSE social media.
 
It says to log in, fuck that. I’d rather drink a pint of wasps than have anything to do with Facebook, instagram, twatter or fucking tik tok. They’re all used by people who vape.

See I’m not moaning about the blades content, I’m moaning because I can’t see it to moan about…

I heard that one of the new owners sits down to pee. Meltdown. It's unacceptable. I demand answers now.

Only because he doesn’t want to be stared at in the kop bogs. They don’t call him Long John Silver for nothing 😂

People still use Instagram? Christ, there'll be people whining that the content we're putting out on Vine and Habbo Hotel is lacking next

I'd heard that our AI recruitment system is basically like Tinder. It brings up their picture and a quick summary of stats and you swipe right if you like them and left if you don't.
 
It's all bullsh*t anyway. Click bait, thinly veiled attempts at being funny/ ironic/ sarcastic/ down with the kids/ surprising/ of the moment, the vast majority of which falls flat.

At least they haven't had to make a 'lads back together' video featuring Wilders favourite old guard, sponsored by Saga and Shackleton's, or had to promote a nice Mcburnie bucket hat range. Innit. So that's nice.

I mean, Lundstram 😂😂😂. One can only assume Hull hasn't yet been delivered of the Youtubes and post match reports from his time here. I may follow Hull's results, even if only out of sheer and morbid curiosity.


Bring back the Green 'Un, Tony Pritchett, the letters page, fishing match results, darts and a more simple time. Just sell us the tickets, programme, shirts (for those of us who can still be bothered with 'em - I don't rate this season's home shirt. Nothing gets near the '92 Deano first PL goal, with laces, shirt and never will) serve a decent pie, pie and a brew and either do it right or not at all.

Oh, and finally. No more use of 'Deano' for the whippersnapper Henderson who was only on loan. Nice kid, liked a good badge thumping session - wonder where he got that from? Played you all like fiddles, so he did.
Our Brian is THE ONLY one worthy of the nickname.

Depends who you are trying to target and engage with social content. Not for you? Would suggest you aren't the target.

It made me chuckle seeing our new RB jump at a rubbish spider in a box.

Congratulations on being target audience: the humourless and easy to please 🤪
 



Lots of moaning... but honestly I get it!

Visually our posts look cool, but there is something lacking, added to a whole load of new players we don't know that well I wonder if we start to lose some connection to them...

That is something we used to do so well, I was living abroad unable to go to games and I felt like I knew the players somehow.

P.s I actually liked the spider video
