Sheffield Utd Thread 13:05 - Mar 1 with 12358 views | numptydumpty | Can't see one up here yet, so will give it a go. Think could be a decent game today and obviously more confident on this one than at home to Plymouth or Oxford Three one Rangers Yang Frey and Field to score |  |

Sheffield Utd Thread on 17:11 - Mar 1 with 2274 views | OldPedro | Quality of finishing made the difference - ref bottled sending Choudhury off for that foul on Saito - definitely should have been a 2nd yellow. Also, gave them all the decisions where he wasn't sure and in the last 20 mins, every time they hit the floor, it was a free kick. Decent performance from us and deserved to get something out of the game. |  |

Sheffield Utd Thread on 17:12 - Mar 1 with 2250 views | HAYESBOY | At least deserved a point from that. They have 2 efforts on target out of 8 and win the game. Our 16 efforts with 4 on target. So many decent chances 1st half. Why didn't Morgan pass 1st time to Yang right at the end of the half? Its still erking me...... |  |

Jeepers, really. In the ground, you have everyone shouting forward and turn at him every time he receives the ball. Their midfield bossed it today which they should with the money they have spent. I think Marti has gotten about everything out of this team that he can. |  | |  |

Sheffield Utd Thread on 17:20 - Mar 1 with 2059 views | ManinBlack | Unfortunately we just can't seem to draw a game. Having pulled it back to 2-1 in successive games it is annoying not to have saved one of these games like we did at Brammall Lane. The reality is we have now lost five of the last seven games and not having players to convert the chances we create leaves us frustrated even when we play well. |  | |  |
Sheffield Utd Thread on 17:23 - Mar 1 with 1999 views | NorthantsHoop | Sheff utd only had two chances and they scored, we make far too many mistakes and we deservedly get punished, this is why we languish at mid/ lower table etc. in this league. |  | |  |

'Squared it to Furlong, should have..' sorry wrong decade. But yes the one more on to Yang was the sensible option, young lad rush of blood wanting to prove himself perhaps and the blocked shot was going well wide, lesson (hopefully) learnt. They punished our mistake for the first goal, their second was a wonder strike. Beyond that, they didn’t create much. We pushed but were wasteful snapping at our chances, and after we did score, they shut us down well. Overall a decent performence against a likely promoted team, with playoffs now fading i'd now like to see our own lads step in for Edwards & Yang + give Walsh some playing time as he's learning nothing on the bench. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Sheffield Utd Thread on 16:20 - Mar 1 by VancouverHoop | Koki owns Choudry now. He can't risk another bad tackle |
Ref bottled it should have been 2nd yellow and off. Then he books colback for the same foul. Hate the inconsistencies.Decent performance we should have got the point with chances made. Despite their strong first 11 and bench they were not all that. But 2 shots on target and they take them both... |  | |  |

Very Wilder. On another day they’re scraping a point at best and he’s having to make excuses. Gutted to lose to that but thought we were painfully naive at both ends of the pitch and any team with good players, even if they’re poor on any given day, tends to win games it shouldn’t. Will be a good old chortle if they mess it up from here. |  | |  |

Great sum up. Spot on. I would just like another 6 points before we start changing players though. Really hard month this month for points. Also thought Colback today was more positive than Field and had a good game, probably just me though. |  |

I thought Colback was good. Does the simple things well, talking all the time to the referee and our own players. 35yo though, but we'll miss it next season. |  | |  |
Sheffield Utd Thread on 18:17 - Mar 1 with 1361 views | NorthantsHoop | We can't go down a goal to sides like Sheff Utd, it is then a slog to get back into the game. They won't do much if they get promoted, we need to tighten up our mistakes. Overall we are a decent Championship team but unlikely to challenge for a top 6 with the team we have, still a bit lightweight and have been for a few seasons, but better than last season overall. |  | |  |

Strange player. Absolutely something there which will have bigger clubs interested. Has heaps of potential but does make some very odd choices at times which I guess we can put down to ‘learning his trade’. Expect his form to be a big factor in whether we’re half decent or crap next season. |  | |  |

Frey didn't have his best game but worked hard throughout and took the penalty well. 'Appalling' he wasn't. [Post edited 1 Mar 18:58]

I'm not usually a fan of Mad Jack McMad but I thought he was very good today. There were a few times across the game when he made a point of talking to players like Yang, not digging them out but doing a, sort of, on field coaching thing. Lot of respect for that and it shows another quality he brings to the side. |  |

Almost pine for the good old days when we gave up all our goals in the seconds before half time now its as you say VancouverHoop early in both halves. Are we not motivated running out or can other teams make better adjustements but either way today and against Portsmouth the game was lost 5 minutes after half time. Had to pull my hair out again we had a perfect spot for a free kick (should have been a second yellow for SU) and Chair or Paal proceeded to blast it against their wall resulting in a fast break chance which we barely survived . Frustrating to lose 2-1 again but the urgency and decision making late on was pretty miserable IMO |  | |  |
