The Sheffield United v Bristol City Match Day Thread 21

[CityGill]

I think you have to give SU credit. They were the better team until the sending off, and even then they still tried to attack with numbers. They kept playing with 3 out wide and outnumbering us, and we really couldn’t handle it.

However, we made some great tackles, flinty put his face on the line and frankie made an outstanding save. We were pretty clinical in front of goal.

3 points, onwards and upwards!

He has a point, to be fair.

But we've got all 3.

I've been sat on 35/45, waiting for that 7 days in Torremolinos to come back up.

Wilder: "The game’s gone if you can’t tackle like that anymore. He’s gone and pulled out of it. It’s a proper tackle."

Jesus, Chris Wilders a bitter man!

Absolute belter comment about the referee, considering the number of late and bad tackles as well as the justified sending off, he may well get a tap on the door from the FA

Did you know that he's a Sheffield United fan? They don't like to talk about it though.

YES, ** YES . I had a bad day, and i saw the score and i am like an ADHD kid :)) Full of energy and i am really looking forward. We can do it with some proper transfers, to keep up until may the same way, to push even for second place ;D we can.

Oh I don't know, this SU fan seems to have a soft spot for us:

"Can't stand Johnson and his ridiculous Joe Pascali squeaky voice. In fact, I f*cking hate the lot of the pikey, red necked, 'oooh-ahhh' c***s"

[South stander]

I fu**king love football!! what a great match to watch as a city fan. You go through all the emotions and come away with 3 points, who cares about who were the best team.  We scored 2 and defended superbly, onto the next match and see how many players are fit to start the match.

I've lost what respect I had for him as he's clearly seen Korey on crutches prior to his interview. ****

Nasty one. 

Chris Wilder clearly thinks this is the point the referee let them down and doesnt deserve another match as he was so poor. 

This couldve been a leg breaker. 

Fool. 

[Silvio Dante]

In the cold light of day, let’s be fair. We weren’t great, and the sky pundits were right - up until the red, we were heading for a defeat.

What encourages me is Lee didn’t dress that up, he saw it, and his post match called it bang on.

What else encourages me, in spite of doubting it at the time, is that the throwing on of Taylor and Leko showed we wanted to win the game. After Korey went off, the easy move was Mags on and Joey into mid so kudos to Lee for going for it.

Wilder, again, though, how can he slate the ref? It’s a red, undoubted. The “high foot” on flints goal isn’t - there is a duck from the SU player (nobody appealed) and after that I’m hard pushed to think of anything contentious. Yes, you were better until the red, but FFS man, have some decorum...

[poland_exile]

I do wish the cameras would have gone to our fans, looks like there were some scenes in the away end. Hats off all who travelled: great result, the perfect mugging! 

[South stander]

Fielding won us the match, what an incredible couple of saves!

I agree,, yes they hit the woodwork 4 times BUT could've easily scored - Frankies saves kept us in the game!!!

Flint had to score the ******* winner just as I was feeding my boy (edit - with a bottle! These saggy monsters are no good for anyone)

Had to hold pose and scream at my wife to come in to the front room and take him so I could go (very delayed) apeshit.

About 2 minutes from goal to celebration. Hands down my weirdest City goal

My 8 month old nephew got the shock of his life when the winner went in, had just drifted off to sleep when he was woken by his Dad, Uncle and Grandad going mad!

[AppyDAZE]

Let's face it, hitting the bar etc etc or no   we stuck in there, got it right in the latter stages and that asault on Korey alone deserved them to lose the game. Really nasty "tackle" and all because they were getting niggly about Milan winning some balls up front. Sheff U are wankahs always have been..

PS loved the manager's interview awwwwwww high boot by Josh    wot a knob

[Busterrimes]

I get the impression Sheffield are used to bullying other teams. It was interesting to hear them want a free kick every time Flint beat Clarke in the air. When it didn't go their way they resorted to assaulting our players
