LJ: (To screen) This is one of the many dangers facing the premier league fan on his forays into lower league territory. Stay tuned for a short instructional video on whippets, which may prove interesting to those of you travelling to the 'north' for away matches this year.

:D

still bitter about getting beaten at home by a 10 men sheff utd team with no gk i guess

guys this is not the official sheffield united thread: sheffield united

Yeah I've been dying to post some Chengdu Blades stuff on there but standards must be upheld (I see you've been relegated for match fixing *again* caek - for shame)

Ok impartially I see this incident and I know Morgan deliberatly wanted to elbow Hume. BUT the elbow landed in the wrong place at the wrong time. Hell it happens in nearly every match.

CONCLUSION: Did he want to hurt him? Yes. Did he want to destroy him? No. Was the injury mostly down to bad luck? Yes.

^^^ that was in youtube's suggested videos when i was watching the battle of bramall lane

ahahahaha that is the campest extreme sport ever

why didn't I think of the battle of bramall lane first up, that was huge

yeah i mean tbf, and not to defend it, the fractured skull thing was no more violent in intent than a lot of other violent challenges. the battle of bramall lane was straight up crazy.

think the ref is trying to send of two people at once here

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHNXtPXoY2o

This match contains some of the greatest action ever imo

love how many genuine hardmen have played for sheffield united in the past decade - the B of BL even features Michael Brown not being sent off

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJ6efXDzIhM&feature=related

my third football match iirc

was also at this http://www.soccerway.com/matches/1993/03/02/england/premier-league/sheffield-united-fc/tottenham-hotspur-football-club/555420/

that was probably when i stopped thinking of tottenham as a big club actually

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pI0pG0RjQ0g

love the celebration here

was in this pitch invasion. couple of months later i moved to oxford, became a cunt, and that was that. haven't been to a game since.

This match contains some of the greatest action ever imo

no kidding. defending from a different planet - winning goal is a dry run for Jamie Pollock's belter

I love that Cantona is in amongst all the hoofs and shanks. The bio on him that I read recently paints the early-nineties English as essentially a breed of noble savages - this match no doubt exerting a strong influence there.

first game:

^^^ soundtrack to my parent's divorce, along with fleetwood mac

Tusk?

tango in the night iirc

This match contains some of the greatest action ever imo

Aaargh! You fucker! That match is one half of the day of my greatest footballing nightmare. Leeds benefitting from a series a bizarre gift goals and then the final indignity at Anfield completing three back-to-back defeats in less than a week.

Yeah, I bet the last eighteen years barely make a dent in the anguish.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

some folk don't know they're born etc

Only three-and-a-bit years before Liverpool reach that stage in the cycle btw.

Yeah, I bet the last eighteen years barely make a dent in the anguish

Oh they certainly make up for it, that's true, but whatever comes afterwards can never change the feeling at the time. There was no way of knowing in 92 what was around the corner - instead it felt Newcastle in 96, the one big chance blown never to return.

my third football match iirc

My first match at Old Trafford (many years after my first actual match) was against Sheffield United in 1991. I'd like to be able to say something about The Blades' performance to add to this thread, but I can't remember anything.

rip big man http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/s/sheff_utd/9151810.stm

heaven needed a forearm smash

big win. still a pretty woeful season tbqfh.

Allardyce in. You heard it here first.

this prediction is going almost frighteningly well

what do you know? is this idea an lj original?

prediction made within minutes of big sam's dismissal based on nothing but intuition. next thing you know, the vacancy is there...

feel like uniting allardyce and morgan would result in a platonic ideal of dislikable club. long shot though i think.

apparently not pesch.

surely o'driscoll wouldn't.........

first leg had the highest attendence we've had all season

is that your old alma mater as well, caek?

yup, but please don't steal my online banking

I wouldn't want to add to the grief of that gruelling penalty shootout 5 years back, so I'll make an exception this time!

wait by "as well as kyle walker" or "as well as calzino"?!

oooh! you are so bitchy and waspish, caek! I bet you didn't get that from High Storrs!

no i'm serious!

all i meant was not stealing from your online banking after inflicting playoff misery 5 years back. I think we both have crossed wires here, no offence intended or taken really tbh!

haha no i got that, i just reread your original message and thought you might have been saying you went to that school too!

I can't guarantee your bank account now though, sorry it is just the way it is.

rip my student loan repayments

finally a game worthy of the nauseating Murdoch tv appellation "Super Sunday"! (Motherwell vs Aberdeen obv)

jfc, how easy was that?! this has been great fun so far

heh, i sleep through lunchtime games now, but it was nice to wake up to this

https://i.imgur.com/ptLwFgD.png

"Duffy, a United substitute, jinked into the area from the right and lashed a shot past Westwood, and all Wednesday’s good work from the previous 20 minutes was wasted. It was ripped up, thrown in a bin and set on fire after 76 minutes, when Clarke burst between two limp defenders and clipped the most delicate of finishes over Westwood."

lmao

I didn't realise Leon Clarke was at the Blades now, he has had some clubs has that lad! Surprised the massive conceded 4 at home - even in a derby. Their defence was so tight last season, but fuck 'em and great result!

Leon? Really? Leon??

this is all going to end in tears (i.e. play offs) but i'm having a lovely time so far

we hate leeds iirc. should be a good (bad) game.

I love it when L**ds choke, even though apparently Bielsa is apparently some managerial fucking genius cos he looks like jack duckworth and spies on opposition training grounds - choking is what the white shite do.

Wilder had an interesting take on his goalscorer. “He’s done well to be the match-winner because after 25 minutes he was coming off as he was absolutely useless. But I left him in there. I still don’t think this is a defining result but we’re in the mix.”

Everything crossed

lol, someone I used to work with who coached Brighouse Town Ladies fc used to often chat with that premiership manager Chris Wilder.

Dear Blades,

please have a jolly good piss-up on Wednesday night,

signed

Uncle Neil

Like a song for Ched Evans
Like a whinge about Tevez
Like a Dave Bassett long ball
Like a Sean Bean tattoo
Like the fave team of Warnock
Like a sad gammon bastard
Oh Sheffield United,
You'll fuck it again

very likely yes

I just hope they have treacle in their boots tomorrow night, can't be dealing with the potential of a last game relegation like in 2002. My heart can't take it. After Burnley getting into bother for putting out a weakened squad for a dead rubber game it seems we'll up against a full strength xi who have just won 4 on the bounce.

2001 wasn't it?

oops, yeah that is correct. It was a bad year for silly bald guy... and Patrick Stewart. It was a fucking conspiracy of other managers putting out weakened sides, and ulp... we just needed a point for safety in the penultimate game and completely fucked it.

Premiership? your having a laugh! tbh now now I feel deprived of a angst ridden last game cliffhanger

I don't care that he's a gammon and widely despised on ilx. WARNOCK IS GOD!!!!

Wow! Grats to ILx Blades and Terriers.

spare a thought for the 2336 Reading fans who bought tickets for the last game

sparing a thought for anyone from Reading as a matter of course tbh
