James Beattie tonight, plus Sheff U in general

Will be a very good test of our currently successful centre back pairing.

Never been too sure of Fortune up against a big target man, and i'm not to sure its Sodge's natural style either.

Anyone know why Sheff U have been doing so bad ? They had a decent squad last season, who did they offload other than Jagielka ?

    Beattie v Sodje will be interesting but Sam and Jon look like a good pairing.

    This could be the first real test for Basey as well if Gillespie plays.

    This was their team that lost to Plymouth Saturday.

    Bennett, Bardsley, Cahill, Kilgallon, Naysmith, Gillespie (Tonge 58), Montgomery, Armstrong, Carney (Sharp 58), Webber, Beattie.
    Subs Not Used: Kenny, Morgan, Stead.

    on paper looks like a useful forward line but not much in defence.

    And for all the worriers the big summer buy Billy Sharp hasn't scored a league goal yet while Webber is second top scorer on 3

    Don't look much on paper, does it ?

    Is Montgomery the thug ?

    Think we owe them after last season, the poor away record they had last season has continued whereas we appear to have addressed ours. At Brammal Lane they will be difficult to beat, but I expect us to win tonight.

    Surprised Tonge can't even get a start.
    Wasn't he one of their better players last season and expected to be snapped up by a Prem side?

    Kilgallon's not bad, Cahill is on loan from Villa, Bardsley from Man Utd. Is that the Naysmith that was at Everton? If so they've all got experience. Then they've got Gillespie, Tonge, Beattie, Webber and Stead so you wonder why they're doing so badly. Has to be Robson really.

    The same 'clown' that got us a home win against Norwich?

    yep, that's the one who tripped and stumbled his way around the box with the ball sort of near him, the same player who touched the ball once in open play in his 25 minutes on the pitch when we were chasing the game against qpr

    Although he's not exactly set the world alight, i think you're too harsh on him. We could've had Ronaldinho up front against QPR and we'd still have been total shit.

    I doubt anyone will change their view/mind but calling Mcleod 'Mclown' is well harsh. And the sort of behaviour I'd expect from a yid not one of us.

    He hasn't come out of the block firing that's all.

    When he comes on and uses his pace, whether he scores or not he scares the shit out of defences. Hence Norwich, 2 fouls 2 penalties, 2 goals, 3 points

    Was in the pub Sunday evening with my badminton mates. Quite a few are blades fans and one has been less than impressed with his team this season - we should win easily.

    no I suspect it's more the case that we are only playing with 1 up front so Varney gets the spot on the bench along with a couple of midfielders, defender and a keeper.

    btw, I'm worried about tonight....have a feeling Beattie will score.

    Beattie can score - as long as we get more!

    A side hoping for automatic promotion should score a minimum of two each home game so if he does get one it shouldn't be a problem

    I have predicted a 4-0 win for us on the Sheffield forum.

    c'mon chaps - castigate giveachyaddick ! when I say something like that I am hounded from pillar to post !

    I must say though I agree with him/her. We should be scoring more, esp at home. The Cardiff game shows what should ahppen - get 2-0 up by half time and 2nd half is then (resonably) comfortable.

    I predict that we will need to score at least 2 tonight to get anything from the game - stead & Sharp to score for them.

    Don't think I'll bother turning up then if they are gonna score twice. 1-0 to the Londoners will do me all day long thank you.
