Yes i know it's still 2 days before ko,but after all we are playin the fake massives so i thought we needed a extra day to put our thoughts on here.I'm expectin Moore to be out(gutted by this) so i would expect Campbell to start and i'd like to see Jesu runnin at the pig defence at every opportunity.I'm always nervous before these games and i never predict us hammerin them,i prefer to leave the daft boastin to them barmy grunters.I think it may well be a very tight game,1-0 BLADES wi BLASTER scorin for us.Enjoy the weekend BLADES folk and those that will be at BDBL lets do our fallen Heroes proud and fully respect Remembrance Sunday.I see Flecky,The bounce slayer & Leon Clarke will all be in fan zone before ko.UTB

Piggies will stick to 4141, according to Owls at work their midfield works better. I expect the game to be low scoring 1-0 Blades. As long as we win that is all that matters,
 
Hate a derby game, unless we win of course. Hard to predict, as owt could happen, but we should have enough to put them away.
 
It'll be low scoring. Take that to the bank.

Probably 0-0 again. 1-0 to us at best. We've seen how cautious Wilder has been in every game since the 2-4.

Moore's absence is a huge blow. I was confident we'd win with him leading the line. Thought he'd very likely score. We now have no good option at CF.

Campbell will probably start up front and that really isn't ideal. And we might not even have Brewster on the bench to call on.

I'd be surprised if the team is anything other than this.

Cooper
Gilchrist Souttar Anel Burrows
Souza Arblaster
Sakyi O'Hare Hamer
Campbell

I won't argue with Brooks' exclusion after his shite performance at Bristol.

We'll have to keep Sakyi and Hamer on for 90 minutes. They're our matchwinners, and there will be very few on the bench. Hopefully Sakyi will be up against a left side of Marvin Johnson and Max Lowe.

The shit date and kick off time has reduced this game significantly. I'd be looking forward to it much more if it was 15:00 or 17:30 today. It adds to a relative feeling of indifference for me, but also generally. I don't think the build up has been reflective of a highly anticipated fixture.
 
And today!
Oooo we can't have that! Not when Chessy and Donny are at home in League 2 and the city centre is expected to be TEAMING with shoppers. Better to play it on remembrance Sunday. Making the BIG decision even if they're unpopular is what makes the Sheffield derbys so different to most of the others.

SY police are not fit for purpose where crowd control is concerned in my opinion Gray.I mean even when we play Rovrum at the New York stadium they alter ko times and i doubt if there's a friendlier local derby anywhere than us
and the Millers.UTB
 
Lewis Smith is the ref for the pig match on sunday.He was the ref for our defeat at Bellend rd.UTB
 
Hate derbies ..my first was Boxing Day at Swillsborough and I've never really recovered.

Let's just get through it unscathed with at least a point.

Sing loud all of you that are going 👍.

Of all the derbies I,ve attended over 70 years I must say the FA Cup Semi at Wembley was the most heartbreaking, never seen so many gloating pigs There again on the plus side altho unable to attend, deep joy when a 90 year old looking Scunthorpes finest Bill Punton scored the winner at BDTBL and when I showed the lads a pic of Blades hero Bill, they thought I was taking the piss!
 
Never make predictions on these games form and favourites go out the window be glad when it’s over and hopefully we take the points as they will gloat if they get anything at all, Moore the obvious worry as we don’t have a replacement but I wouldn’t put it past oné to write himself into club folklore today 🤞
I shall be doing my bit by having a small wager on them, happy to lose bookies money on this occasion
Let’s hope we all have good day ⚔️
