Match Thread Coventry City - Sheffield United Match Thread - Saturday 23rd Nov (25 Viewers)

I’ve never liked Sheffield United since they beat us two nil around Christmas when we were flying hard with Tony Mowbray.
They were a cheating, Diving dirty bastard team.
Strangely enough, like most teams in red and white stripes.

Remember that well! Lameiras had one of the worst tackles I’ve ever seen put in on him and only a yellow

It was a horrible night at Bramall Lane... seeing Moldovan miss chance after chance & worrying that we let them back in... then David Holdsworth hit that volley... less said about the pens!

I think it was more a chance to get to Wembley... we'd have given Newcastle a good run for their money at Old Trafford, but Arsenal were a bloody good team then, and we'd have fallen short like Newcastle.

Yeah that was one of the most pissed off Ive been after a game. We had a good side that year and should have beaten them. That Moldovan miss from that header inthe box I could have scored . Reckon we’d have beaten Newcastle but as you say Arsenal’s side was very good and think they’d have beaten us in the final.

Personally given the circumstances I would prefer a defensive approach with three at the back and Da Silva and Van Ewik as wing backs, and work from there. Torp, Sheaf (hopefully) and Eccles in the midfield, Simms up front with either EMC or Norman. I thought EMC looked a lot better in the 2nd half against Derby, but he is not the most alert player.

I don't know how you can pick a team that doesn't have Sakamoto in it. A goal and two assists in his last three appearances.

Just not in the number 10 if he is going to start please

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.

This post will appear on their weekly 'view from...' thread where they get excited by opposition fans saying things that aren't nice about them.

I've already seen a post suggesting it's our 'cup final'. Same old

I don't want hear one rendition of any song relating the Hamer, O'Hare or Mark Robins during the 90 minutes.

Agree, there shouldn’t be any songs re COH or Hamer, before, during or after the game. Or at all really.

An MR chant is likely and fine, it’ll be the first time the majority of fans have been to a game since his sacking and will want to show their thanks/respect/displeasure.

As long as it doesn’t turn negative, it’s fine.

Would take a draw on Saturday to be honest.

We’re heading in to a real tough run of games, need to get behind them as much as possible.

To be fair to the poor lambs, they don't figure in two of the top trivia facts that spotty teenage boys use to try and impress uninterested teenage girls about the lovely city of Sheffield.

Oldest football club in the world?

Why are they called Sheffield Wednesday?

Definitely agree with the MR chant. I'm glad that I got to belt out the song one last time in Boro after a win.

Tin foil hat time but is it completely crazy to think that the manager situation is resolved but holding fire after the first home game after the sacking?

There is absolutely no reason to sing the O'Hare/ Hamer song. It would be embarrassing.

He might be lucky to get a move that's better than where he's currently at the way things are going.
Obviously we hope he picks it up for the sake of the team.

Team? That’s so last year. We now have a “deck”

They have a what?

Talk about being insecure.

Tomorrow?

Place was empty today as if there wasn't a game at all, some fans you lot are all, I had to finally leave after waiting several hours for nothing

The weather is going to be a total leveller. Not a time to pussyfoot at the back. Going to be mistakes galore.

Struggling to get my normal buzz for this one. The lack of movement on a manager/coach is top priority.
