Lets hope the BLADES turn Good Friday into a GR8 Friday.I know some won't gi a shite but i'd like us to perform well and win,it'll be interestin to see what team Our Chris selects/who is available.Sounds like Ogbene played well for Ireland,i wonder if Brooksy will be back in time to be considered for a start? I tip a 3-1 win wi our goals comin from Bamford,Bindon & Gus.Have a luvly Easter weekend BLADES folk.UTB

Report I read on ogbene said power and pace with no end product would be nice to see some power and pace before he goes back then again it might tempt Chris into thinking he could get more out of him 🫣
I want us to win like I do every game the difference now is I won’t let it get me down if we don’t as it matters little now (everybody now waiting for tomorrows rant if it’s not gone well :taz:)
 
Interesting that they’re still talking about making the play-offs or going down and yet there’s only 2 point between the 2 clubs. There’s the Welsh for you boyo!
 
Tyrese Campbell is out for the season after havin a knee operation.Our Chris is hopeful Kalvin Phillips will be available before the end of the season. UTB
 
You can see it happening before it does. The intensity drops and the players dont actually look like they want to score again...

How much longer are we going to allow this?
 
Three one up and still not able to win. unfortunately happening too often and a stark reminder of just how predictable and frail the Blades have become. A real sickener!
 
Big clear out end of season and much needed.

I not bothered if the lot go.

same owd ….. same owd
 
Again nobody was surprised they pulled it back. If only Reidewald could play beyond 60 minutes we might have a better chance, bringing him off is like hoisting the white flag, especially if it’s Rothwell replacing him. Rothwell may have been decent once but he is beyond bad now. Soumare has a lot to learn but surely he’s a better option?
 
It is so frustrating
You can see the energy levels drop
Any team sees blood, we are in trouble
Swansea weren’t that good, but, the last 20 minutes were very painful
Sorry, I walked out on 90 minutes
I know people are wanting a regime change
Mine would be, get someone in who can get the players to be able play for 90 minutes!!!!
Heard the get rid of Wilder comments has I left, but, honestly, who are we going to get , another Selles??
Really got to careful what we wish for!!!
 
Our squad is one of the most expensive in the division Bfl...we really should expect better
It’s not about how much we spent it’s about quality. Our defence is a shadow of what is was when Anel and Souttar were here. We have no proper left winger, so are unbalanced. If you look at our strikers as a 4, they are collectively bottom half of the league, without Bamford even lower. The summer window saw millions wasted on poor players, panic buys from a club with no proper plan. Almost like Trump with the Iran war.
We could replace Wilder but it would be another Slavia Jokanovic moment. A new man, a new style but faced with having to sell the better players while having no money to spend and not knowing what he needs till the end of the transfer window.
The risk factor is way too high.
Let Wilder have the pick of the free transfers, get that defence solid again.
I would personally prioritise a big commanding CB, sign Cameron Brannigan to captain the team, get a proper LW, plus loans. Hamer and Peck will have to be sold.
If by Xmas we are struggling then we reassess the manager situation.

I said at 3-1 if they get back to 3-3 I’m off we could all see it happening I hung on and left on 88 mins putting a couple of quid on them at 15/2 as I walked down the steps 🫤 amazed we managed to hang on tbh
Where do we start with this back line tho, we’d all keep seriki most would have bindon back and I reckon most would be reasonably happy with burrows and McCallum that leaves tanganga ! I’d try to get bindon back but if not I’d get ibaptiste back for another look although Rotherham’s position would be a worry maybe we should offload tanganga I’m pretty sure Chris could get someone as good for half the price or do we stick with them and try to iron out the problems personally if he hasn’t managed to do it by now it’s not going to happen, as for the keeper he’s been at fault for some of the goals but there have been plenty that he could have done nothing about cooper if he comes back owt like will improve us slightly but no where near enough, I’d replace Davies seriki may well be sold anyway and we may not get bindon back so some changes may be forced on us but if they aren’t I’d try and get some money back for tanganga and reshape from there cos after a great start he’s just gone steadily downhill it’s not all down to him but he’s the obvious choice for cutting the cloth, of course defending starts from the front so no one is beyong criticism I expect peck and possibly brooks to go and surely hamer,maybe blaster will come back rejuvenated after a preseason but both midfield and strikers need juggling if anyones in for Campbell I’d snatch their hand off as we won’t be playing the pigs next yr so that’s his goals tally halved and bring Oné back into the fold as for the rest if he can offload those that were brought in last summer the sooner the better
What do you lot think !

Sorry for the long winded post but I’ve moved on from this shitshow and am looking towards the summer rebuild 🤷‍♂️
