We need to keep it tight Aslong as we can so the crowd start getting on the backs of their players which will grow us in confidence.
I have voted a loss for this one however if we are to win I think it will come from a set piece!
My team would be
NICHOLLS THOMAS RWB PEARSON CB SARR CB COLWILL CB TOFFOLO LWB HIGH CM HOGG CDM SINANI CM RHODES ST KOROMA CF
I understand sorba is a risk defensively at rwb however when we go forward we have got to have some quality to hurt them and Toffolo and Thomas both need to play.
UTT

Difficult to call, they are bound to come good soon enough, so let’s hope it’s not today !
Hopefully they’ll still be in a crisis of confidence and our tails are still up and we play the way we did after talking the lead against Preston North End.
I’ve went with the heart and voted a draw in the poll.
Hopefully Billy isn’t Sharp today and doesn’t stab the ball into the Town net for The Blades and puncture a wound in our resuscitation hopes and I’m being blunt about that !
Perhaps Town could ‘Steel’ the points today.... no cast iron guarantee though.

Apparently if you get IPTV put onto your Smart TV or onto a Firestick to slot into your tv you can watch all games, and sport galore, and films, and series, and more for about £50 per year. Decent quality too, and all works like normal tv viewing. Not that I'd know, obviously. Would you obviously not know where to get hold of one of these IPTV's thingy's 😉 Obviously not

If we are going to continue playing 2 out and out wide players with the intention of getting good delivery into the penalty area then it seems to me obvious we should be starting with Rhodes who is by some distance the best finisher we currently possess (and unfortunately that’s not saying much). Twice against Preston in the 2nd half we got behind them and rolled excellent balls across the 6 yard box and nobody was near them - Campbell certainly does not have those instincts to anticipate where the ball could go. I am convinced that for all his faults, Jordan would have got to at least one of those passes - it’s what he does. If CC thinks he’s not fully fit yet then start him and take him off when he tires or bring him on for the last 30 mins, but to start with Danny Ward who is not a natural striker (I don’t care what anyone says, he’s not), and then replace him with Campbell when we are not even threatening to score, is really poor management in my very humble opinion. If CC doesn’t rate Rhodes then we shouldn’t have brought him back to the club. Like he had a say in it 🤣🤣🤣

If CC doesn’t rate Rhodes then we shouldn’t have brought him back to the club. Like he had a say in it 🤣🤣🤣 Not saying that that is definitely the case here, but it's an interesting idea: What happens when the recruitment team finds a player they think is suitable to needs, but the manager/trainer (in CC's case) doesn't? Surely a player can't come to a club without the explicit approval of the manager/trainer? I'm sure CC does his homework and knows what's happening not only in the English scene, but probably the European scene too. Didn't someone on here once mention meeting Alex Ferguson (sorry for the comparison) at an airport, and he could name 3/4 (three-quarters) of Town's team even though they were divisions apart at the time? Might be excess-beer overdramatization on my part, but surely CC would know who and what JR is?

It is slightly puzzling (at the moment).

Difficult to call, they are bound to come good soon enough, so let’s hope it’s not today ! We’ve been saying this about Town for years……. Then again, if there’s any club in the FL that likes to give teams a winning chance when the times are hard, it’s Town.

Just out of interest as we’re on the subject of Sheffield or half of it anyway.
Do Town fans have a preference outta Sheffield Wednesday or Sheffield United ? I know they’re Yorkshire rivals (well United anyway as it stands) but is one stadium say better than the other... are one set of fans nicer / more horrible than the other.
Blades or Owls ?
Whatever enjoy and stay safe all Terriers and Terrieresse’s in attendance today. !

It's the 'Billy Big Bollocks' mentality of their fans that grates me the most.

Sheffield United 4 Town 1 ( Sarr ) I would be delighted with a point because despite there start overall they have a superior squad than us so being realistic but it's football and owt can happen

Haven't been there for ages (20 years nearly, now), I liked the city of Sheffield itself - always found it friendly and good-humoured. Probably be more of a Blade if I lived there, but have known Wednesday fans and they were absolutely OK too. Difficult question though, my Grandad's brother was from Sheffield and I think he was a Utd fan.

Good time to play them - still not scored in the league this season, not creating chances / shots, relegation hangover, new manager.
There for the taking - play to win the game not to hope we don’t lose
Test the keeper early… and you never know
