Earlsdon shouldn’t be a night out...

Why not? As long as people don't roll out the pub / bar screaming like d*ckheads, there's no issue. It's a big enough city to have areas that are self sustaining with some night life. Cambridge has pubs and bars open late in the middle of neighbourhoods and people just handle their sh*t and leave without being Brits abroad.

Looking at their forum they really are a special bunch
Reckon we have forced a rivalry with them when let's be honest , most of us couldn't give a rats arse about them.
They're the least significant club in Sheffield let alone in our thoughts.

 

[shmmeee]

Why is everyone so obsessed with us? We just do our normal thing and leave a wake of fan tears behind us.

 

[skybluecam]

Speaks volumes for our other defenders then.

I did say ideally.

Would take Bobby Thomas over Lati every day of the week in a back 4.

Think we’re at the point now where Carr probably takes the game regardless of an appointment beforehand or not

Yep he’s the one who’s led the prep for it so he probably should take charge.

 

[SkyBlueMatt]

3-1 loss and Hamer (and probably O'Hare) to score.

How many cup finals is that now

Sheffield United fans stoking up a rivalry wasn't on my bingo card. I can't remember ever giving a second thought to them. I don't like them or hate them, they are just another club.

Though I'm not looking forward to seeing O'Hare & Hamer play against us.

I still haven’t forgiven them for the quarter final defeat. I definitely prefer them to scummy Sheff Weds. There were some cracking games against them at HR in the early to mid 00s as well.

It all stems from the protest game which they took offence too and which they won anyway…

It’s very strange and like you said other than looking back at it at a very grim time for our club no one really gives it a second thought

Dovin
Milan
Thomas
Binks
Da Silva
Eccles
Torp
Rudoni
Sakamoto
Simms
EMC

Hopefully sheaf is fit and comes in for Torp/Rudoni

Have we created a rivalry with them? I dont ever think about the Blunts, I probably think about their Steel City counterparts more the racist bastards. Besides we’ve lived rent free in their heads since the 2016 protest

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

3-5-2
Dovin
Latibeaudiere - Thomas - Binks
van Ewijk - Eccles - Rudoni - Bidwell
Torp
Simms - Mason Clarke
Subs:
Collins, Kitching, Dasilva, Andrews, Allen, Yearn, Sakamoto, Asante, Bassette

Can see this being a tough game as they’re a decent side (obviously why they’re up the top). Definitely one we can win if we’re on it though, it all depends what Coventry turns up I think. But based on us showing up Im going for a hard fought 2-1 win with EMC finally getting on the scoresheet and showing us who he really is, and Tatsu to score off the bench. One of Gus or Cal for them

 

[shmmeee]

Collins (got to stick with a keeper and he wasn’t awful)
MvE Thomas Kitching Binks
Torp Eccles Rudoni
Saka Simms EMC

TBH wrote about four different back lines out and they’re all much of a muchness.

Same here, when the team shows up to really play it's a joy to watch. Not sure who's gonna show up tomorrow so, for no reason whatsoever going to foresee a 1-1 draw maybe a late goal by Hound.

MvE Thomas Kitching Binks

I can see the argument for Binks at LB in this game tbh. Decent shout.

I was chuffed to bits when they beat Wednesday the other week mind

My dad thinks we’d have had a bloody good chance of winning the cup in 1998

 

[SIR ERNIE]

Gotta play 2 up top otherwise Simms gets isolated against 2 CBs

Collins
MVE Thomas Kitching Binks
Saka Torp Eccles Rudoni
Simms Bassette

Taking my daughter with me to her second game.

Tomorrow?

 

[SkyBlueMike24]

Decent odds on Sheffield United, match it with an O’hare/Hamer score or assist and would be worth a punt

 

[napolimp]

Tomorrow?

To be on this guys calendar.

 

[jordan210]

In the words of Nick.

smash Gus and COH early
