Matchday 36 Sheffield United V Nottingham Forest, Saturday 4th May 15:00.

[sammy the snake]

I wonder if we'll ev any mental strength saturday? Without it, there's nothing to come.

Tbh it’s all about quality on Saturday, Blunts have some for sure but their defence isn’t prem level at all. Their supporters have pretty low expectations but they expect them to be winning the fights… because to blunts, that’s the barometer of success, year in, year out… f***ing shit club

 

[Rubics]

Who was asking the questions at Nunos press conference? Sounded like they’d got something trapped!

 

[valspoodle]

Nuno says Murillo and Boly will be fit for Saturday

Great, they worried me a bit on Sunday. Good news.

Ugly stat if true. 11 of the 19 were decades ago, but something in our dna seems to prefer to play underdog…

This does not surprise me at all.

 

[Grass]

This is the first interview of his that I have been able to watch all the way through.
His other interviews have just been too blunt and boring.
He actually comes across well in this

Can a club who has probably been through 1000 players and 30 managers in between have a DNA?

I hear you, but those numbers are pretty damning. How long have we been shite at set pieces, how long have we crumbled under pressure, doing classic Forest stuff… there are trends that seem to ignore the player/manager churn. Maybe it’s the tea lady

I've said this once before, the unpalatable truth is the only consistent is the fans

Our entire DNA runs through Morgan I guess

I'm not sure where the 19 games comes from but its not accurate from what I can see.

We have played a total of 32 games against promoted teams in our Premier league history.

In 3 of the 6 full seasons we have been relegated at the end of it so didn't do well against any teams really!

However in totality we have won 10, drawn 13 and lost 9 overall. On average despite us being relegated 3 times we pick up an average of 1.34 points a game against promoted teams which equates to a 51 point season.

In the last 18 games against promoted teams (Which incorporates 96-97 and 98-99 where we were relegated by the way).

We have won 2 games, drawn 11 and lost 5.

This season we are unbeaten against promoted teams. Last season we lost 3 times and drew once so statistically we are better this year than we were last year moving from an average of 0.25 points per game to 1.5 which would extrapolate to a 57 point season. If the average stays the same then we have at least a win in us from the remaining 2 games against promoted teams and I expect it will arrive this weekend.

Doesn't bode well when we have Sheff Utd and Burnley away to play.

Bravo In 1994 I won £10 from 90 Minutes magazine for debunking one of their articles with their own player stats. Fair to say I’ve lost my investigative edge since those days. Who knew the BBC could lie to you

 

[WSM EXILE]

Found the flaw in your plan: That requires an IQ of over 70.

Maybe with their whole fanbase as a collective, they might just make it then

Blunts DNA is quite possibly inbred hence their attitude issues, a few links missing?

On a pure single game mentality and strength to win, I think Wilder has it over Nanu.

I don't think there'll be much quality on show.

It’s the 11 players on the pitch that will dictate.. they know what will be coming .A shitfest of negativity and hooveball

That's always gonna be the case when most of their player and supporters have hooves.

It’s going to be a sneak-preview of next seasons‘ football.

Looking at Everton forum, it looks like they want us to go down and luton to stay up.
I wonder why?

Well, if that‘s a serious question, it’s because Everton are a financial basket case, and Luton are arguably less threat to their remaining in the top flight than Forest might be.

 

[Gyros Peter]

I wonder who the blades would rather go down with them. If I was Sheff U I'd rather be going down with Luton than Forest. I wonder if that factors in ever?

Thinking of the fixture tonight I worry about that result. With Everton safe, will they relax just enough for the Luton spirit to propel them to victory?
