Tbh that was my first thought

Ipswich not going away. They’ve got a very nice run on paper before we play there on Easter Monday 

[AlexLaw76]

Not a penalty....I guess Klopp will offer a replay any moment now.

Leeds and Ipswich both have nice runs coming up now. There’s some utter shit in mid-table and lower half, so can’t see many shocks. We’re going to have to do it the hard way. 

Completely agree and we lost to one of them this week. 
 
On our game and focused, I can’t see anyone troubling us really. 
 

I am not a RM fan, but his post match in the studio last night genuinely makes me believe we don’t have to fear anyone.

Providing of course we cross the white line with the right stuff both player and manager.

What were the odds of them winning the Premier League?

Skates strolling to promotion, I swear every time I look at League 1 results all the other teams at the top fail to win 

The quality in that league this year is awful,

To think, we had Huddersfield and Brighton to contend with, who were both fucking quality.

 

Just shows, if ever there needed further substantiation, we are fucking streets above those cunts down the road.

[The Cat]

Juventus losing at Verona who are in the relegation zone. They have been awful since Alcaraz joined (obviously not his fault, he hasn't really played)

Whats he need to do to win you over? A 30 game unbeaten run? Bizarre

well, to be fair, have you seen his hair and that ridiculous middle parting?

We cant be going to the Premier league with that, we'd be a laughing stock

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Holgate sent off. Having a great start there.

[DT]

Mason Holgate being shit for the Blades. Horror challenge and a red card. What a terrible footballer

[The Kraken]

Absolutely horrendous “tackle”.

[AlexLaw76]

Horrific challenge by Holgate

[OttawaSaint]

Red card for Holgate after 12 minutes. 

Ludicrous challenge. Covering himself in glory again. 

[Winnersaint]

Holgate fucking comedy act. 

[OttawaSaint]

What on earth were Saints thinking with that signing? Bizarre.

Horrendous challenge and a well deserved red card, I'm sure Chris Wilder is well chuffed with Holgate.

[ErwinK1961]

Not seen any comments on it here, but Holgate sent off for a horror tackle.

[Saint_clark]

Holgate starts for Sheffield United today.

And sent off after 15 minutes!

Wait, I thought it was more difficult to play vs 10 than 11...

[suewhistle]

I only came here to say that Holgate has not made Chris Wilder very happy.. The Blades must have been desperate signing him on loan!

[HKsaint]

Well done. Holgate

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Radio tater really laying into him as well, with comments like:-

Second goal, the space where Holgate would have been is exploited.

Stupid challenge that has cost himself, and his team a chance.

That he's ruined all the good work Wilder and the club have worked on since their win against Luton.

I worry about him keeping his feet and, as we found out, some iffy decision making, in his early days. Probably nothing, and he'll be fine.

[Yozzman]

OMG just seen the tackle. It's a shocker!

[Sheaf Saint]

 

And he even had the gall to plead innocence to the ref!

[kitch]

Ten men Sheff Utd unlikely to win, easing pressure on Everton. 

Nice work, Agent Holgate.

[Saint_clark]

Fucking hell that's ridiculous. 

[igsey]

Man I wish I got paid £70k/week for being awful at my job.

[Lighthouse]

Cant lose 5-0 if you’re not on the pitch. Always thinking three moves ahead is Mason.

[Tamesaint]

One of the worst tackles Jamie Rednapp has ever seen.

I didn’t think he could get near the opposition at Sunderland when I first saw him, so he must be improving.

Holgate: Ref, that was never a yellow!

Ref:You're right enough. Red it is.

Paul Robinson on the radio got a few more comments in. Boos from home support aimed at the ref. But he wondered how many of them could also be aimed at Holgate.

[Gloucester Saint]

That’s a horrific challenge - more than a hint of Gascoigne on Gary Charles in the 1991 FA Cup Final. High, wild and out of control.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

He might not have been on the pitch for it, but it's another shipping of 5 goals for Holgate's collection.

[Lighthouse]

Five conceded in three consecutive home games for the Blades. Good effort.

Most goals conceded after 25 games in PL history. Strange stat, but they’re on target for conceding 100 over the season.

[beatlesaint]

I know we were bloody awful last season but Sheffield United are absolutely horrific.

I’ve never seen a team so unprepared for the Premier League

They might as well not have bothered, a total waste of everyone's time. People talk about the money setting them up, but their owners are shit so it won't go far. I think they're in a bit of debt anyway.

They sold their best 2 players in the summer as their contracts were running down . I don't think any of their team would get in our starting 11.

Would you want _any_ in the _squad_?!  McAtee?

[John Boy Saint]

I’m quite enjoying this Luton game after a poor start, they are scrapping for it and Man U aren’t enjoying it.

[Lee On Solent Saint]

Ref bottled giving Casimero a second yellow earlier

He forgot about Keane’s tackle on Haaland then. Oh…
