Ousetunes   10 #266 Posted February 25, 2014 Whilst a packed Bramall Lane and the opportunity of reaching the semis would have been nice and a welcome relief from what has been a disastrous season for both Sheffield sides, what really matters is that each club consolidates itself in their respective leagues THIS season and re-group and push on next.  If the Blades lose to Charlton then the cup run will be quickly forgotten; if we beat them then at least we'll have one day out worth remembering this season. The FA cup run has been a nice distraction (sic) and has undoubtedly lifted the spirits and belief of everyone at SUFC.  As a Blades fan, I think Wednesday have found the right guy for the job and with some investment should be a force to be reckoned with next season. For us, I too think we have the right man in Nigel Clough and he is turning things around - but all this will count for nothing if we are relegated (fairly unlikely but still a real possibility) and no cup run would make up for playing in the fourth tier of the English game.

NERVY-OWL Â Â 192 #267 Posted February 25, 2014 Owls were awfull 1st 30 mins,thought grey dropped a clanger when after the equaliser he carried on with the substitution,should have left it another 10 mins but we should still have got at least a replay out of it. Â Yea I thought he might of waited although we did seem more dangerous once the subs had been made. Just too many players had off days and could of done with lee or samedo in the middle to stop the midfield out playing us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Hotmale 1954 Â Â 201 #268 Posted February 25, 2014 (edited) Just to start, I DIDN'T go to the game last night. Â I think Gray's 5 (6?) changes backfired on him. Â The lads who won at Huddersfield would have expected to start. Some 'in the know' talk about being tired, and 2 games in 3 days was seen to be a killer before the event. Â Bullcrappen I say. The team who won at 'Udders could easily have played, (and won) last night. Â I'm not slaughtering Gray, but on this occasion, I think the effect on team spirit may prove to be very destructive. Players, like fans, can be very fickle. Â The team he put out there wasn't a poor side, they should have done better, but it seems to me that their mindset was all wrong from minute one. Â I hope that the spirit in the camp isn't harmed permanently. Edited February 25, 2014 by Hotmale 1954 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Walkley Dave   10 #269 Posted February 25, 2014 Apparently there are now two flood alerts in the City.  The first as someone has pointed out was with Owls fans in floods of tears.  At the other end of the City Blades fans are ******* themselves laughing!
