Blades to be cut down to size by improving U's 14:18 - Sep 15 with 1144 viewsdurham_exile

The annual pilgrimage to Bramall Lane awaits the beleaguered TH and his charges.

This is always one of the most keenly anticipated games of the season and with a new man in charge, Nigel Adkins, the Blades have so far not managed to set the steel city alight.

I have watched the 11 minutes of highlights from the bright lights of Chesvegas and after last season's thrashing was grateful to see a useful point picked up especially with a 3-1 deficit with 20 minutes to play.

Marvin Sordell could ignite the U's with his pace and goals and once fully match fit should live up to the considerable promise that he brings to the club.

Now whatever the rights or wrongs of supporting or criticising TH he must realise that the Number One on his team sheet has to be George Moncur. It is sheer lunacy to keep him on the bench or worse.

The Blades will be hurting after they were "All Shook Up" at the weekend. Still back to back home defeats is not unthinkable and now is as good a time to play them as any.

TH must look to attack from the outset. After all there will be no 3-1 comeback against Sheffield United tonight.

I was pleased to see that he started on Saturday with Sordell, Harriott and Massey, on paper genuine pace and the ability to hurt teams.

Jones

Vincent-Young Eastman Elokobi Briggs

Garvan Moncur Gilbey

Safe journey to all travelling supporters, enjoy the game.

Did not see that coming. Much needed three points.

Perhaps if home games contained as much incident and excitement a few more people would attend!

On bus coming home. Fuller report tomorrow.

What a game. Two penalty saves by Jones. One then retaken at linesmans bequest. Referee did all he could to conspire a home victory and failed. Elokobi deserved red, but foul was outside area, confirmed on TV replay. Where did six minutes added time come from when no injury delays? Even then, he played eight.

Well deserved victory!

We often play better away. Here we out sang 17000 silent bewildered Blades fans for most of the match. I saw the positives of our new signings at Chesterfield. Tonight we were awesome.

Future quiz question; which U's keeper saved two penalties before making his home debut (albeit one then successfully retaken).

11 goals in 2 games? U's score six in two games plus hit post four times. Let's hope the home crowds get behind them now.

Don't you count booing as singing? That's all I could hear on the radio commentary!

When Billy Sharp scored the retaken penalty, it was reported he laughed in the face of Jones - wonder if the classless d'ck is still laughing?

Blood pressure happily back to normal this morning.
Eleven goals in two games over four days is unprecedented in my long history of watching U's. This just maybe the start of our long awaited revival.

Never liked Sharp. Couldn't hit a cow's arse with a banjo during his dismal stint at Leeds. Just about found his level now.

Well done TH and the boys. Would have happily taken one point. Few more results like the last two and we will quickly climb the table.
