[brummie saddler]

It is fudge brass monkeys, probably should be up by one.

[Welsh_Saddler]

No substitutions to start the second half - Deano must be reasonably happy with the way things are going.

Scunthorpe 0 Bradford City 2

Fleetwood 2 Swindon 0

Us, Cov and Wigan in form at the moment.

[Welsh_Saddler]

Posh having a fine time at Crewe.... 0-4 now (and Crewe beat Sheffield Utd recently!!)

Today's attendance 5,780

[SaigonSaddler]

Swindon, the greedy and horribly ambitious moth dancing around the flame of happenstance, are now 3-0 down at Fleetwood.

'Well, bye ...'

[Welsh_Saddler]

The big Gillingham fightback?? Now 4-1 at Coventry.... too little, too late !

Sheffield Utd sub - Billy Sharp withdrawn.

Oh dear - it's 1-1 (Baxter) :( :( :(

Swindon now 4-0 down at Fleetwood

[SaigonSaddler]

Would have Predicted 1-1 though.

[Welsh_Saddler]

Doncaster Rovers 0 Rochdale 1

Fleetwood 5 Swindon Town 1

Crewe 1 Peterborough 5

[SaigonSaddler]

Balls.

[Welsh_Saddler]

Full time 1-1. A bit disappointing after being in the lead, and apparently having so much of the match. Still, I'll probably be at Swindon on Tuesday - that might be more positive....... :D

[Welsh_Saddler]

It will be 2-1.

Must try harder..... :wink:

[Ancient Moaner]

Think the dream is over, we're falling back into the old, old, ways at home again. A bad two points lost today, will come back to haunt us later in the season.
We are now also-rans and must try to consolidate a place in the play off's leaving the winning of the auto places to the likes of Coventry, Wigan, the Blades, and now possibly Posh and Bury.
Sad indeed but realistic.

Realistic my arse we could have been 3-0 at half time with a bit more luck, let's see how the next two game's pan out first I'd be happy with 4 points.

[Mazza01]

Some great football played today but we just didn't get it right in the final 3rd, we have to get Bradshaw more involved as all the chances today were shots from distance.

[scott_powell]

Should have won that. Sheff United really are a lucky team.

Everyone played reletively well. Sawyers pulled the strings yet again. Nice to see Bradshaw on the score sheet again.

I hope the upper pissed off Leatherman.

Absolutely clueless. Were you even at the game?! We dominated. Another day we win 3/4-1

We hit the bar, hit the post and were by far the better side against a decent SU team who kicked us black and blue with a ref who let it happen. Also rans my foot, I don't know what else the team could have done. Absolute class today.

I agree. Lose at Swindon on Tuesday and we will be in a relegation scrap.

Smith Out :mrgreen:

[latviancheese]

We bossed that game and should have won it in the first half.

You can blame luck for the draw on this one, their keeper made some great saves, we hit the bar, and a slip allowed their man to shoot for the goal.

Both keepers were terrific to be fair.

George Evans is a laugh, scored a few goals ay he, thinks he can score from 50 yards every time now :lol:

Bradshaw again marked by two lumps, but he looked much more like his old self today. And Lalkovic needs more games like today.

The nature of how we play allows teams space on the break, a good combination on Etheridge and superb last ditch tackles in defence at times. I dont mind this though, because at home, we can never be accused of not going for the win.

A good game, frustrating but we played so well again. Sheff Uniited are hilariously crap. Their fans dont even care either by the sound of it. Absolute hoofball.

People moaning about the ref today, but at least he was consistent, in that he didn't book anyone and let everything go. Sheff United certainly used this to their advantage.

[Gripper]

We had an off game in comparison to most of the season so far, Rico Henry took 50 minutes to warm to the game, Morris had a mare IMO.

We go again tuesday I guess, the games we should've won that we have drawn are once again starting to creep up which is slightly worrying, hope we hold it together over the Christmas period.

Still very much positive mind, glad Bradshaw has got the goal he needed more than wanted.

Oh, what a bunch of great players they have, probably paid a similar amount to ours who outplayed them at times, great fans too, not deluded in any way, they are a league one team and will be for a long while, they'll get used to it eventually. (Saying this in the hope they read this....I want them to smile)

[Mazza01]

1-11 Sheffield United have some quality in their side, we wasn't on top of our game today yet we were still unlucky to draw. We won't win every game we play that's a fact fact no team does! A few fans need to understand that.

[Right Eye am]

It will be 2-1.

Must try harder..... :wink:

:?

This loud upper tier firm is getting a lot of good vibes on the street. Keep it up Scott n boys. Much better.

[SoccerHQ]

Crucial the game in hand is won v Sloppies really.

Still 1-1 v Sheffield United has to be the most predictable football result on the planet, the last 5 games must've ended that score?

It is tightening up there, Wigan on a great run now as are Coventry, Bury started to win again.

[Walsallone]

A superb performance today by the team . I regret AM writes us off from 100 miles away because if he had been there he would have seen a team of real quality performing near its best. A scoreline of 3-0 at half time would have been about right. The reason it wasn't was not poor shooting but a post,a bar and 2 superb saves by the goalie. Sheff Utd were outplayed but came back hard in the second half which was more even but we still played the best football. Lets hope we can keep this level up...if we do we will keep creating chances and win games. Well done to all. Just one comment on the opposition they were certainly good at falling over and their goal came from a free kick which should never have been given!!!

[IHTC.]

I bet even A.M cannot believe how many people actually bite at his obvious wind up's

Agree with above, we were fudge ace in the first half and a 2-3 goal lead would have been fully justified. Sawyers was epic - and I'm starting to think that he might make premier rather than championship level. How the fudge did Evans (who was excellent, but not the sublime level that Sawyers reached) get MoM over him :shock:

The blunts will be in the top 4 (didnt see Cov but they were much better than Burton/Gills) and showed it by recovering from the footballing lesson we gave them. No doubt, the troll will appear and bemoan Bax's non-appearance, but we were a joy to watch today. Loving it :D

[Pheasey_Saddler]

Good performance against a pretty average side.

We were dominant until we went 1-0 up and then they seemed to up their game. With 2 recent ex-Premiership players in their ranks (Sharp and Sammon) and other decent forward players such as Baxter and Evans, I always felt we needed at least 2 goals to win and so it turned out. Can't moan about the performance but our luck was just out in the final third. Another day, it could have been about 4 or 5-1.

Still a decent point though against a team who I still think will be top 6 at the end of the season, just on the quality of their forwards.

[SaddlerSteve]

2 points lost.
Should have put the game beyond them when we were on top but paid with a lapse of concentration.
On the positive side it's great that we have such a good side that these types of games are disappointments rather than us being relieved that we hung on for a draw.
