TONIGHTS (TUE) FOOTY

[warksclaret]

Swansea are garbage 1-2

[Buxtonclaret]

I've flicked across to the Chicksn farm.
May as well watch a game that's fun to watch.

[Conroysleftfoot]

Sheff Utd have the luck of a team destined to go up.

[claret wizard]

Vigouroux Has not picked anything up from Trafford.

[Commy]

Oxford in front against Luton. Now 3-2.

[willsclarets]

Well this has all gone downhill.

[dsr]

Sheff Utd have the luck of a team destined to go up.

True. At least three decisions that could have gone either way, one of them a "two-for-one" penalty and red card, and all three went Sheffield's way.

[FCBurnley]

Red card and a pen against Swansea making it easy for Blades. That’s 2 pens in 2 games. Blades had no shots on target in first half and only 37% possession

[Woodleyclaret]

Penalty king scores for Mackems

[Buxtonclaret]

Lille, a man down, equaliser at Anfield.

[jdrobbo]

Penalty king scores for Mackems

Been ruled out! Not a clue why

[CrosspoolClarets]

Relying on luck tends to mean it runs out eventually. Yet another goal conceded for the Blades tonight.

They have a shocking run in February.

[Anonymous Claret]

Penalty king scores for Mackems

Disallowed. Terrible decision.

[jdrobbo]

Possible handball that directly leads to the goal??

[IanMcL]

Sheff Utd have the luck of a team destined to go up.

Not actually very good - but they mean it.

[Clovius Boofus]

I can't be doing with Michael Dawson. He's way too intense and void of any personality. Roy Keane can be intense, too, but at least he's immensely watchable and has a sense of humour.

[Buxtonclaret]

Liverpool 2-1

[Stonehouse]

Bobby Thomas on for Sky Blues.

[Clovius Boofus]

At least b-turds are getting beat.

[Spijed]

Not so long ago they had a solid defence, yet they concede in every game now.

[billyhamilton82]

Pivotal couple of weeks.

We definitely need to win tomorrow

[ElectroClaret]

Correction.
They've been beaten
0-2

[Spijed]

Pivotal couple of weeks.

We definitely need to win tomorrow

I think Plymouth is/was a must win anyway.

[Tricky Trevor]

Amdouni comes on for a Benfica side 4-3 up on Barca.
10 mins to play + added.
Comment from comms,” still a Burnley player”

[Woodleyclaret]

Poor set of results but we can't rely on others
3 points is the only acceptable result at Plymouth

[RammyClaret61]

Deadwood packed again!!

12,819 including approx a 1,000 from Coventry.

[Buxtonclaret]

Must win tomorrow really.
Results ( Coventry apart ) haven't been kind.

[willsclarets]

Race is hotting up now. We'll soon see if we're good enough to stay in it

[Vegas Claret]

yep, no wiggle room. Anything less than a win won't do

[IanMcL]

When you can't even rely on Barcelona, we definitely need 3 points!

[Tricky Trevor]

Watched bits of 3 European matches tonight and noticed they don’t give a jot about kicking the ball away after a FK awarded. It was driving Villa players mad.

[Cheshireclaret]

It’s certainly not a must win, it’s the 28gh game in a 48 game season and at worst we’ll be 5 points off second, 6 off top. A few weeks ago people were getting giddy about Sheffield United’s form over Christmas. There is a long long long way to go, tomorrow is not a must win, albeit that would be lovely of course!

[Hutchy]

A bit sad watching bastards but Coventry are terrible.

You are right, Stonehouse. We might be in a minority, but It was kind of sad seeing them like that tonight. Their owners have reduced them to an utter mess. No signings coming in. No backing for the manager and they picked up three or four more injuries too tonight. They can forget the top 6.

I would normally agree with this, but in the context of this season, and the amount of 0-0’s we’ve had, it’s time we started showing some improvement. If we want to get automatic, then there’s really no excuse not to be beating a team rock bottom and 5 points adrift of safety.

[Clovius Boofus]

Good.

[Tricky Trevor]

Absolutely outrageous finish to Ben v Barca.
Benfica have nailed on pen turned down whilst ball still in play Barca boot ball length of field and Raphina gets onto it to score.5-4 Barca.
VAR has a check and says no pen.
European football is more corrupt than PL.

[Goliath]

Huge pressure on us tomorrow. From what I've seen Sunderland have stepped up a level now. If I had to bet my house on the top 2 I'd say it will be Sunderland and Leeds.
Not convinced by Sheff Utd at all.

[Buxtonclaret]

Eh up, Saxo!
How's the chicken wings these days?

Just seen the penalty claim back. It is absolutely staggering how VAR has not told the referee to go and look. It's as clear a push as you are likely to see.

Awfully sad. Really put a dampener on my night.

The way I read this:

We might be in a minority, but It was kind of sad seeing them like that tonight.

Their owners have reduced them back to what they were before Walker came in and cheated for trophies, an utter mess.

No signings coming in. No backing for the manager and they picked up three or four more injuries too tonight.

As it was back in the day, they can forget the top 6.

[Tricky Trevor]

Watched the last 20 mins of our NEIGHbours and they were dire. 1-0-7 in their last 8, injuries with more tonight, crowd tumbling, relying on loans, owners can’t or won’t put money in. They are in big trouble. Next season could be interesting

Oh dear how sad nevermind ...

Eustace has shown he’s pretty capable at this level, any decent job offer and he’s off.

[Stonehouse]

Rovers fan Hutchy creeping out of the woodwork misreading my post I wasn’t saying it was sad watching the numpties lose ,I meant I was sad watching it . :

[Commy]

Leeds have some hard fixtures. Burnley, Sheff Utd and Middlesbrough away and Sunderland at home.
Sunderland have Middlesbrough, Leeds and West Brom away. West Brom are slipping but they aren't easy to beat at home.
Sheff Utd have Middlesbrough and Leeds at home and Burnley and Sheff Wed away (hopefully a derby draw or a Sheff Wed win).
Burnley have Leeds and Sheff Utd at home.

Some points are going to be dropped between the top four.

Yes I agree ... methinks Hutchy protesteth too much

If only football worked that way. What you've just described some people may say it's a banana skin if you ever saw 1.

It is a banana skin which we will skip round.
