'Had 5 at the top of the pitch' ( his words) and 6 defenders AND the goalkeeper in the penalty area for Wrights equaliser!!!
'Leaving the middle of the park wide open' there were 5 defenders in the penalty area for Rudoni's winner '

What is he on about?

Being a league above them would be so sweet. Also imagine if we did pick up someone like Brooks, I think they'd lose their heads at being our 'feeder' club

We now have a winning historical record vs Sheffield United btw. Drink it in.

Finally got some sort of payback after the 1998 ¼ final, first time I've been back since. Still technically not seen us lose in Sheffield. Probably around 15 games including the Hillsborough ones.

Not sure where you parked. We parked in the Waitrose. Spoke to a few Blades' walking back afterwards and they were complimentary but all said they were the better side, but we were more clinical and maybe "wanted" it more.

They also slagged off Wilder. Called him a dinosaur.

Funnily enough we parked at the same place. It was more the fans immediately outside of the ground heading back to the town centre that were lairy, once we got past the row or takeaways it seemed to weed out the dickheads.

Tbf to them, we went to the Spoons around the corner from the car park for a few beers (The Sheaf island or something) and it was a good mix of home & away fans in colours with no hint of trouble - just a lot of students in fancy dress !

He thinks they had enough back to deal with the danger and shouldn't have conceded in the ways they did.

I mean, he's right, really.

they're above leicester by a country mill in the dislike stakes for me. petty bitterness but that penalty shoot out made 9 year old me cry lol scars are still there..

Them being absolute shithouses managed by Neil Warnock and Chris Wilder with a horrible fanbase with a sense of entitlement based on winning something before the entente cordial was a thing just amplifies it.

Size wise they aren’t even close to Wednesday. Home attendance last night was 23-24K which isn’t good when you’re usually at the near the top.

weren’t they in the lower leagues almost the entire time we were in the top flight?

I suggested Frank should make some changes and bring Torp on for Rudoni mate, if that's your definition of massively overreacting and panicking you need a reality check

Proper laid into us when we sacked Robins and beat them last year though. If i recall didn't we try and get him as manager when we sacked Thorn? When he was at Oxford.

He holds a lot of respect for Lampard, and he did for Robins too. I think actually he's a massive football nerd like most of us

Click to expand...

I think it does a lot to potentially ruin their playoff hopes. They need to be very good to have any kind of chance of getting up there, so a loss last night is a big reality check, and they know it. The fact it was against us makes me feel good to be honest. They really are a bunch of cunts.

Wilder is a character and the championship is better for it. Too many young super tactician managers now with no character. He’s an old school manager.

I like how he talks about the game for sure. Very refreshing compared to the new generation of media trained managers who recycle the same buzzwords and cliches like 'behaviours', 'moments' and insist on playing out from the back because it's the 'in' thing to do.

I maintain that in the top flight he's been found wanting, like Warnock was too. Lots of respect to both for what they achieved in the EFL though.

We seem to have 'created' rivalries by no longer being the club everyone feels sorry for.

I know a few have given Onyeka lower ratings for his performance. But where he was very good was drawing a few fouls in the middle of the park to break up play after we had gone 2-1 up

He was very nearly our manager once I believe!

It was a toss up between him and Robins after we sacked Andy Thorn - Only reason we didn't proceed is probs because SISU were too tight to pay Oxford compo

Even the coverage of the 2023 playoff final had a really patronising tone to it. 'Aw look at these little shit clubs fighting it out, how adorable'.

Move aside biatch

Fact is we’ve spent most of this century competing with various limbs tied behind our back…now we’re on a level playing field. Remember Aidy Boothroyd saying anyone who delivered success at this club would awaken a giant-he wasn’t the man to do it but I always agreed with the sentiment.
