Well, it's going to be a long drive each way, hopefully the weather will stay nice for me, hoping for a win, will settle for a draw.

Cheers

Tomorrow sees United travel to Yeovil for the next game, it will be tough but we should win. They are on the back of a 4-1 thumping and, after a bright start have stumbled a wee bit.

Time to nip in & take advantage, and get that 1st away win of the season, this season is starting to shape up like the one under NW when; we drew our 1st 6 games.

Does Wilson have fire in his belly, I'm not too sure, I don't think he's got enough, let Morgs give pre-match threats (sorry talk) lol.

Cant see anything but this one being 0-0 or 1-1 judging by the last few Blades reults

bassett-boys · 21-09-2012, 20:21

Early start for me for this one and not overly looking forward to it if i'm honest if only for the time it takes to get home afterwards which prevents me from an evening in the boozer, hope to get in for last orders but who knows.

A win in an away game like this could kick start a run so we can hope to bring three points out of it even if we knick it with a single goal. We have signs of quality but just haven't pulled it all together. Last game without Flynn and Doyle so thats something to look forward to as well. I would put Miller out on Left and start Blackman and Kitson personally, then bring Cofie on to replace Kitson after the hour because I don't think he's ready for 90 mins yet.

1 nil win to the blades

potlegs · 21-09-2012, 22:10

Long way to go for a draw and an even longer drive home from a loss (our lads recently done that to us) so am hoping for a win for you 2 -1 .
Bypass - don't you go getting wound up listening to RS

Out next Fri

Referee for todays' match is ...Roger East.

Same guy who ref'd our play off final with Huddersfield ....newly promoted to EPL and he's already flourished two red cards this month

I'd like to see Miller in the starting line up for this game ......and I live in hope that Lecs isn't too far away from making his reappearance.

Sing Loud and Proud Bladesmen ...

bassett-boys · 21-09-2012, 23:51

Reet off to bed and probably speak Sunday now chaps, can't see me getting on at all tomorrow as I probably won't be back till late.

The Worksop Blades will be singing loud and proud Spacecat mate.

There is only 2 chances of promotion for you guy's and that spot 1 and 2 !

If you get in the playoff's again you might as well not bother !

Just got in and a great day out mainly down to a cracking and very vocal hardcore blades following down at Huish Park today. Was a great atmosphere both before with great banter with some very hospitable home fans over a pint or two prior to kick off, during the game we had some great banter and loads of songs and come the full time whistle we came away with the right result before heading off home with a staggering three toilet stops due to a clogged up coach bog, overall a top day out.

The game itself felt more like one of last season both on and off the pitch. We played a very patient building style of football alike to some of the stuff we saw last year, we were far from prolific and didn't really have to lift it out of third gear as we played sensibly really. Overall it was very experienced really and we played patiently and took the chance when it came to us from another cracking header from Collins.

We gave the ball away a few times but overall passed the ball around decent enough, as with the Doncaster match we could have been a little more dangerous going forward in the final third but we got the goal we wanted so I'm happy enough. Kitson looks a good type to have with a pacey player playing off him, holds the ball up very well and spreads it out.

I think we can take the positives from this now and go into the next game looking for 3 points. Kitson should start and both suspended players can jump straight back into the starting line up and I can see things coming back together.

More than a few times BB!

Great day out, lovely warm weather, another fine header from Collins, and cracking beer, what more could you want!

Not sure why young Miller is not getting a game, we needed his pace at the end, Kitson is a handful, not match fit yet, but looking ok, we really are missing Doyle and I never thought I would say that. Flynn's pace was missing as well, plus he is not gun shy when he is near the goal.

Great banter in the crowd, hope everyone made it home one piece.

We did but I don't think to the extent that I was worried about it, they were quick off the mark and applied a good bit of pressure from start to end and the pitch had a few bobbles in it for this early in the season and didn't flow as much as some of the better pitches, plus when we lost the ball we applied pressure again and won it back a good few times. Like I say i'm not worried about that too much I thought we looked the most assured that we have in the last 4 games minimum and could and possibly should have walked out convincing winners.

I like you can't wait to have the captain and Flynny back, evidently missed and an instant place in the starting line up for both if you ask me. Excited about seeing Flynny whip some quality crosses in for Kitson. Really don't know what the problem has been with Miller, I genuinely like the lad and think he has some quality about him.

Respect to the guys who went down.
Glad you came back with the points. As teams often find, travelling such a distance can prove too much.
Unbeaten still, in the play offs, tough game sat, lets show we can move on.

Cheers for the report too BB, always appreciated.
