I'd be over the moon with a draw but tbh I can't see it... Blades are consistently pulling out the results atm despite some very average performances.. home win.

Cov in good form, the Blades will know they've been in a game whatever the result.

We'll have our work cut out next week.

Sheffield remind me of us in the promotion season, they just keep pulling out a win, they’ll beat Coventry especially with being at home.

Aye let's hope Coventry can do us a favour but actually I think the target for Burnley is Leeds, on whom we have gained five points in the last four games.

I don't think the target is anyone. The target should just be to win each game and see where we end up.

I can see the ground from my upstairs office and I’ve hung all the voodoo dolls I can find out of the window :D

Can’t see it though, they are raggy gits and seem to get the job done. Leeds also have an easy game so I reckon if we can hold our own by 2 weeks from now I’ll be delighted.

Come on you Coventry!

Coventry are top of the form table and easily capable of getting a result.

Hull City beat Sheffield Utd at Bramall Lane in January 3-0. :geek:

Target is automatic promotion and at the moment it is in our own hands. For what it’s worth I don’t see Blades winning tonight

I suppose it depends on how many games your form table goes, but, in the last 5, we are top with 13 points from 15, whilst Coventry are 2nd with 12 from 15, and Bristol City are 3rd with 11 from 15!

Whatever the result tonight, we have a tough game tomorrow against a form side. Every dropped point between now and the end of the season will be vitally important and as long as we have a bloody good go each game, who am I to complain! However, anymore stinking piles of 0-0 turds will not suffice!!!

Apart from 5 yard sideways/backwards free kicks there’s absolutely nothing that annoys me more than a needless free kick given away outside the box.

I hope we’ve learned the lesson before Twine winds one up tomorrow!

They’ll go on and win this easily now from a single piece of individual brilliance, but an unnecessary gift.

Annoying. Mainly because we lack that individual brilliance that might mean we drop points at Cov :(
