Looks as if the Blades decided not to risk the ladies team, but opted for the reserves.
It would appear that we HAVE actually scored a goal (against the Blades reserves) someone contact the Guiness Book of records folk! I'll believe it when I see it.....optimist mode :lol: :mrgreen:

Bit harsh.... playing well, winning at half time, you give grief. What's the point?
Merely an emotion born of long experience :wink:

Second half under way, with no substitutions from either side. Our opponents next Saturday (Oldham Athletic) are currently 0-1 down at home to Burton Albion, incidentally.
(EDIT ... 51 minutes sees Blades make a substitution - an injured James Hanson makes way for someone called Ched Evans - no comment)

Fair enough! I think I got a bit of a nose bleed from the half team scoreline.

Walsall yellow card on 55 minutes (Kinsella, I think)... aren't we due to give United a penalty at this stage?
Oldham Athletic v Burton Albion now 1-1
56 minutes, and there's a second substitution from Sheffield Utd - Chris Basham on for Jake Bennet

It`s that man Evans. :( ( 1-1 or own goal by Roberts depending on what you see/read.
Substitution, Walsall. Simeon Jackson replaces Amadou Bakayoko.

Shame. I hope we can re-group for Saturday. It doesn't get any easier being a Walsall fan. Are there any other clubs in the football league who have had as little success as us? Even the likes of Oldham have been in the top division and been in a proper cup final. I suppose there's the likes of Rochdale and ???? It really is shyte being a Saddlers fan. Will we ever be any good or are we just p!ssing in the wind?

They should change the format of this cup to the Checkatrade format so we don't get knocked out after one game.

Re: Sheffield Utd (A) Carabao Cup, Wed 9 Aug, 7.45pm
let me guess
we competed well for a hour and deserved to be leading from the 1 shot on target we had.
then sheff utd u21 reserve side realised Walsall could easily be beaten as most the players had to be in bed by 9 oclock
they bought on ched evans who ive always admired and id like a striker like him but I'm not paul fudge daniels and the barclays doesn't want to play for us as the 500 quid just aint enough.
ill take this match as a learning curve on my mission to be a premiership manager one day and who anted to be in this mickey mouse cup anway I mean sheff utd didn't they made 11 changes.
oh well ive got a free Tuesday so the lads can do 20000 metres so theyre fudge knackered for next match.
oh and bonser wont sack me because I know his dirty secret

Disappointing after giving us all hope until the last 15 minutes, when 3 quick goals found us out.
