Been talking to a few of the lads today and they didn’t even realise we were playing them on Friday night down at the stadium. Looked online and plenty of tickets available. Be a shame if we can’t get at least 7-8k down for this one. UTT.

About as uninspiring a friendly as I can think of wanting to watch Yeah but I’d hope for a decent turn out at only £10 quid a ticket and £5 quid concessions. Reckon sheff United will bring 1500. Hopefully we can get as many town fans down as possible before the big kick off weekend after against Peterborough

Its a friendly against a local side?? Another friendly against a foreign team would have been better? ? We really do have to stop being down on anything and everything the club does or does not do🙄

Friendlies are as dull as ditchwater. Only if I have absolutely nothing else to do would I consider going. There's got to be something at stake to get excited about watching a football match for me.

This. Went to arsenal at home years ago and other than Unsworth flooring Walcott it was awful. No intensity at all, just not proper football. Never been to a friendly since

Agree, only friendlies i consider going to nowadays are if its a ground i haven't been to, been to places ive never been to before and not likely to go again.

Never been to a friendly since I went to Pontefract Colleries once which has rather informed my views on friendlies ever since.

We really do have to stop being down on anything and everything the club does or does not do🙄 I personally wasn’t having a go. Just don’t think there will be as many go as some people think. Hope I’m wrong and loads go and hope everyone who does go enjoys it. Im not arsed for friendlies. If it isn’t win at all costs im not interested. Each to their own.

Nobody has to go, its just a training game with a little more interest and bite. Friendlies are a personal choice, the club may have tried other fixtures to no gain, as a friendly I dont see the Blades as a bad one to have. We need to play games, the standard of the opposition does need to be better than the teams we played last pre season and including Sheff Utd they will have been. I will pop along and have a look at the new lads without much on the result..

I normally go to the friendless but according to the website the only stand open for Town fans is the Core stand, the only car park is the Gas Works, that's no good for fans coming on Leeds road plus its forecast to rain, so i will give this one a miss.

Went to one there years ago, can't remember a single thing about the game other than it being Tom Cowan's comeback from his knee injury which was the only reason we went in the first place.

Amazed with the apathy around going to this. Can’t think why you wouldn’t really. Oh, yes it’s raining! Get your sen down. Positive summer on and off the pitch. Yes we need a couple more in but as we’re away first league match, good chance for those of you that haven’t seen us in the flesh yet pre season to see how we’re getting on. Sheff Utd perfect oppo for last match before it all kicks off. UTT!
