First post in months and probably my last for months but I've just got home from an extremely cold Bramall Lane and have to praise the Blades. We've robbed them tonight. Until the red card (haven't seen it again yet) but it looked harsh, they were battering us even more than Wolves did.
I'll take it all day long but they didn't deserve to lose that, very tough on them.
That said, what a result. I'm starting to believe!

Thanks bud, just seen it on Sky and it was a naughty tackle, much worse than first impressions. Any news on Korey as it didn't look too clever?

LJ said he's on crutches, gash on his leg and could be a bad one. Guessing he'll be going for a scan with us hoping it's not broken.

Will be going for a scan and an x-ray.
The fact he was sat on the bench rather than already having one done should be a good sign, even though he will likely still be out a few weeks.

Aaron Cawley still goes and he punched (pushed) skirtland
He had his ban lifted by the courts after he appealed. Leeds stance on it,is that he's meant to be banned by the club from buying tickets, but they cannot stop other people from getting him tickets.

Thank fuck the blades on this forum are alright because on their forum their a bunch of mongs.

Only read a couple of threads on their forum and we were lucky, shit and "fucking awful" a very bitter set of fans indeed.

The fact is they were the better team and were bossing the game until that sending off. They were unlucky with the amount of times they hit the woodwork and even after the sending off they still called it on and attacked. Another fact is, it was a definite sending off, so that's that.

It seemed harsh at the time, just looked a strong tackle, wins the ball just before the follow through.
However in recent years the rules have been made quite clear.

No 2 footed lunges allowed because they are potential leg breakers.
The slow motion clearly shows it’s was a 2 footed lunge, so by the letter of a law a definite red.

There’s some frustration amongst our fans.

We’re still playing well and creating plenty of chances but apart from Millwall we’ve been really unlucky and could have won our recent games and be up there with Wolves,

So on one hand everything is looking good and we should be back to winning ways very soon.
However on the other hand some might say “playing well but still losing” is not a good sign.

We’ve been unlucky, opposition keepers making fantastic saves and opposition teams scoring long range shots against the run of play BUT there comes a time when blaming bad luck becomes sour grapes and making excuses.

Standard shite by a football manager

I thought you did well when you had 10 men, you didn't put all men behind the ball and oh we're still pushing for a winner.
I think we had more of the possession when you went down to 10 men, but no way did we control the game.

Ultimately I think wilders desire to go for the 3 points with 10 men cost you in the end, his subs were way to attacking imo

If 20 of our shots that have gone wide this season, actually went in....we'd be up there with Wolves.

Anyone want tonight's lottery numbers?

I admire him for it draws get you absolutely no where in football that's why they changed the points system and lets be reyt despite the attacking subs its not as if you were counter attacking and hitting us on the break for half an hour. You had more of the ball but I still thought we looked slightly the better side and more like scoring.

I think Sheff Utd were the best team we’ve faced, along with Wolves. They were well drilled and organised and kept coming at us! Lot’s of talk saying they have a ‘average’ squad, they seem to be doing okay.

Sending off changed the game and we took full advantage.

Yeah you will. As I said to you we struggle against teams that play with 3 at the back just because of how expensive the formation is. You played us at our own game.

Credit to our boys though, last two away games we've deserved 0 points and got 6. Possibly the reason we've lost so few is because of our defensive resilience, you have quite a young and inexperienced back three don't you.

Last night stearman played he's very experienced, Basham and joc not so much. We seem to let a goal in pretty much every chance we concede, that 1st goal was superb though.
